We report here a general method for the synthesis of new symmetrical bis-phosphonates of acyclic nucleosides. 1,3-Bis[(diisopropoxyphosphoryl)methoxy] derivatives of purine and pyrimidine bases were prepared by their reaction with 1,3-bis[(diisopropoxyphosphoryl)-methoxy]propan-2-yl tosylate. Cytosine, uracil and thymine provided regiospecificallyN1-isomers. This alkylation regiospecificity applies to several other tosylates of primary and secondary alcohols as well. 6-Chloropurine and 2-amino-6-chloropurine were alkylated in N9position. Resulting bis-phosphonates were converted to the respective free phosphonic acids and tested for antiviral and cytostatic activity. Despite the fact that no biological activity was found so far, the outcome of this work can serve as a useful tool in synthesis of novel groups of acyclic nucleoside phosphonates (ANPs).

Alginate gel-entrapped cells of auxotrophic thymine-dependent strain of E. coli catalyze the transfer of 2-deoxy-D-ribofuranosyl moiety of 2'-deoxyuridine to purine and pyrimidine bases as well as their aza and deaza analogs. All experiments invariably gave β-anomers; in most cases, the reaction was regiospecific, affording N9-isomers in the purine and N1-isomers in the pyrimidine series. Also a 2,3-dideoxynucleoside can serve as donor of the glycosyl moiety. The acceptor activity of purine bases depends only little on substitution, the only condition being the presence of N7-nitrogen atom. On the other hand, in the pyrimidine series the activity is limited to only a narrow choice of mostly short 5-alkyl and 5-halogeno uracil derivatives. Heterocyclic bases containing amino groups are deaminated; this can be avoided by conversion of the base to the corresponding N-dimethylaminomethylene derivative which is then ammonolyzed. The method was verified by isolation of 9-(2-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl) derivatives of adenine, guanine, 2-chloroadenine, 6-methylpurine, 8-azaadenine, 8-azaguanine, 1-deazaadenine, 3-deazaadenine, 1-(2-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl) derivatives of 5-ethyluracil, 5-fluorouracil, and 9-(2,3-dideoxy-β-D-pentofuranosyl)hypoxanthine, 9-(2,3-dideoxy-β-D-pentofuranosyl)-6-methylpurine, and other nucleosides.

Methods of preparation of N-(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonomethoxypropyl) (HPMP) derivatives of (2S)- and (2R)-configuration (compounds I and XXVII, respectively) are described. The general method starts from the corresponding N-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl) derivatives which were converted either into the (R)-enantiomers XIII by reaction of the base with (R)-glycidol butyrate (XII) in the presence of cesium carbonate and subsequent methanolysis, or into the (S)-enantiomers XI by alkylation of the base with (R)-2,2-dimethyl-4-tosyloxymethyl-1,3-dioxolane (V) in the presence of the same reagent. The amino groups on the heterocyclic base in compounds XI and XIII were benzoylated by silylation followed by reaction with benzoyl chloride and the obtained N-benzoates XV and XVII on reaction with trityl chloride afforded the corresponding 3'-O-trityl derivatives XVI and XVIII. These compounds were condensed with bis(2-propyl) p-sulfonyloxymethylphosphonate (XXIII) in dimethylformamide in the presence of sodium hydride to give the fully protected diesters XXIV and XXVIII. These compounds could be selectively acid-hydrolyzed to remove the trityl group only under formation of compounds XXXV, or methanolyzed and then acid-hydrolyzed to remove the trityl and N-benzoyl groups and lead to compounds XXVI and XXX, or treated with bromotrimethylsilane to remove the trityl and 2-propyl group to give phosphonates of the type XXXI. All the three types of compounds were then converted into free phosphonates of the (S)-series (I) and the (R)-series (XXVII). Derivatives of cytosine (Ia, XXVIIa), adenine (Ib, XXVIIb), 2,6-diaminopurine (Ic, XXVIIc) and guanine (Id, XXVIId) were prepared. Condensation of the partially blocked adenine deriavtive XXXV with the tosyl derivative XXIII and subsequent deprotection afforded 9-(S)-(2,3-diphosphonomethoxy propyl)adenine (XLIII). Reaction of the same compound XXXV or its (R)-enantiomer XXXVIII with diethyl phosphonate , followed by deblocking, afforded 3'-O-phosphoryl derivatives (S)-HPMPA (XXXVII) and (R)-HPMPA (XL).

Reaction of bis(2-chloroethyl) ether (II) with triethyl phosphite afforded diethyl 2-chloroethoxyethylphosphonate (III). This compound reacts with sodium salts of heterocyclic bases to give diethyl esters of N-(2-(2-phosphonylethoxy)ethyl) derivatives of purine and pyrimidine bases IV. Compounds IV on reaction with bromotrimethylsilane and subsequent hydrolysis were converted into N-(2-(phosphonylethoxy)ethyl) derivatives IV.

The processes involved in the formation of crown-gall on the leaves of Kalanchoë daigremontianum have been investigated. The points of infection were treated with fluoro and bromo derivatives of pyrimidine bases and nucleosides at various times before and after the infection. 5-Bromouracil (BU) and 5-Bromodesoxyuridine (BDU) specifically inhibit crown-gall formation during the four-day induction phase. Thymine reverses the inhibition by bromouracil during this same time but has no effect after the end of the induction period. 5-Fluorouracil is only a weak inhibitor of crown-gall formation, whereas 5-fluorodesoxyuridine (FDU) interferes extensively with the entire development of the plant in addition to inhibiting the formation of crown-galls. Our results are consistent with an incorporation of FDU into the autoreduplicative system of the cells. The inhibition by FDU is also much stronger during the induction phase than during the later period of crown-gall growth, so that all results point to a direct participation of a specific crown-gall DNA in the primary changes involved in the production of a crown-gall cell from the host cell.

The (R)- and (S)-N-(2-phosphonomethoxypropyl) derivatives of purine and pyrimidine bases (PMP derivatives) exhibit very high activity against retroviruses. This paper describes the synthesis of enantiomeric 9-(2-phosphonomethoxypropyl)adenines (I and XXVII), 9-(2-phosphonomethoxypropyl)-2,6-diaminopurines (II and XXXI), 9-(2-phosphonomethoxypropyl)guanines (III and XXIX) and 1-(R)-(2-phosphonomethoxypropyl)cytosine (XIX) by alkylation of N-protected N-(2-hydroxypropyl) derivatives of the corresponding bases with bis(2-propyl) p-toluenesulfonyloxymethylphosphonate (X), followed by stepwise N- and O-deprotection of the intermediates. The key intermediates, N-(2-hydroxypropyl) derivatives IX and XXV, were obtained by alkylation of the appropriate heterocyclic base with (R)- or (S)-2-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)propyl p-toluenesulfonate (VII or XXIII) and acid hydrolysis of the resulting N-[2-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)propyl] derivatives VIII and XXII. The chiral synthons were prepared by tosylation of (R)- or (S)-2-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)propanol (VI or XXI) available by reduction of enantiomeric alkyl 2-O-tetrahydropyranyllactates V and XXI with sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminum hydride. This approach was used for the synthesis of cytosine, adenine and 2,6-diaminopurine derivatives, while compounds derived from guanine were prepared by hydrolysis of 2-amino-6-chloropurine intermediates. Cytosine derivative IXe was also synthesized by alkylation of 4-methoxy-2-pyrimidone followed by ammonolysis of the intermediate IXf.
