Abstract 1-(β-D-Ribofuranosy1)-2(1H)-pyridone-3-carboxamide (6a) and the 6(1H)-pyridone derivative (6b) were prepared by condensation of 1,2,3,5-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-ribofuranose (3) with 2- and 6-hydroxynicotinic acid, respectively, to 4a and 4b, followed by conversion of the carboxylic acid function of 4a,b into their corresponding carboxamides 5, and then deprotection of 5. Bath 6a and 6b were then treated with 1,3-dichlom-1,1,3,3-tetraisopropyldisiloxane to give the corresponding 3′,5′-O-TPDS derivatives, 7a and 7b. Mesylation of 7a,b with mesyl chloride in pyridine afforded the stable, protected mesylates 8a,b. Upon de-O-silylation of 8a,b with ET3NHF gave a mixture of unprotectd mesylates 9a,b and 2,2-anhydro- and 6,2′-anhydronucleosides, 1a and 1b. Upon storage of 9a,b at man temperature, they are quantitatively converted into 1a,b. Mild alkaline hydrolysis of 1a,b afforded their corresponding arabino nucleosides 10a,b.
