Abstract

In this article, we report on the synthesis of 2',3',5'-tri-O-acetyl-2-amino-1-deazaadenosine and of 2',3',5'-tri-O-acetyl-2-amino-N(6)-cyclopentyl-1-deazaadenosine, which are very versatile intermediates for the preparation of 2-substituted 1-deazaadenosine derivatives. The two synthesized compounds showed to be quite unstable, with the N(6)-substituted derivatives being less stable than the N(6)-unsubstituted counterpart, according to the calculated HOMO-LUMO energy gap. Stability studies were performed through HPLC-MS analysis.
