Condensation of 1,2-di-O-acetyl-3,5-di-O-benzoyl-4-C-benzoyloxymethyl-L-arabinofuranose with N6-benzoyladenine, catalyzed with tin tetrachloride, afforded nucleoside I, which upon partial deacetylation and subsequent mesylation was converted into 9-(3,5-di-O-benzoyl-4-C-benzoyloxymethyl-2-O-methanesulfonyl-α-L-arabinofuranosyl)adenine (III). 9-(2,5,6-Tri-O-acetyl-4-C-acetoxymethyl-3-O-methanesulfonyl-α-L-arabinofuranosyl)-N6-benzoyladenine (V) was obtained by condensation of 1,2,5-tri-O-acetyl-4-C-acetoxymethyl-3-O-methanesulfonyl-L-arabinose with N6-benzoyladenine. Reaction of mesyl derivatives III and V with methanolic sodium methoxide afforded 2',3'-anhydro nucleosides VIa and VIIa, which were acetylated to give 9-(5-O-acetyl-4-C-acetoxymethyl-2,3-anhydro-α-L-ribofuranosyl)adenine (VIb) and 9-(5-O-acetyl-4-C-acetoxymethyl-2,3-anhydro-α-L-lyxofuranosyl)adenine (VIIb). Epoxy derivative VIb was cleaved with bromotrimethylsilane to 9-(5-O-acetyl-4-C-acetoxymethyl-2-bromo-2-deoxy-α-L-arabinofuranosyl)adenine (VIIIa); the same reaction with epoxy derivative VIIb afforded a mixture of 9-(5-O-acetyl-4-C-acetoxymethyl- 2-bromo-2-deoxy-α-L-xylofuranosyl)adenine (IXa) and 9-(5-O-acetyl-4-C-acetoxymethyl-3-bromo- 3-deoxy-α-L-arabinofuranosyl)adenine (Xa). Their dehalogenation with tributylstannane and subsequent deacetylation led to 9-(2-deoxy-4-C-hydroxymethyl-α-L-erythro-pentofuranosyl)adenine (VIIIc), 9-(2-deoxy-4-C-hydroxymethyl- α-L-threo-pentofuranosyl)adenine (IXc) and 9-(3-deoxy-4-C-hydroxymethyl-α-L-threo-pentofuranosyl)adenine (Xc). 9-(2,5-Di-O-acetyl-4-C-acetoxymethyl-2-bromo-2-deoxy-α-L-arabinofuranosyl)adenine (VIIId), prepared by acetylation of VIIIa, on reductive elimination with Cu/Zn couple and subsequent deacetylation afforded 9-(2,3-dideoxy-4-C-hydroxymethyl-α-L-glycero-pent-2-enofuranosyl)adenine (XIb). 9-(2,3-Dideoxy-4-C-hydroxymethyl-α-L-glycero-pentofuranosyl)adenine (XIIb) was obtained either by catalytic hydrogenation of bromo derivative VIIId, followed by deacetylation, or by catalytic hydrogenation of didehydro derivative XIb. The nucleosides synthesized were tested for antiviral activity.

Condensation of 1,2-di-O-acetyl-3,5,6-tri-O-benzoyl-D-glucofuranose with N6-benzoyladenine, catalyzed with tin tetrachloride, afforded nucleoside I. Partial deacetylation of I, followed by mesylation, gave 9-(3,5,6-tri-O-benzoyl-2-O-methanesulfonyl-β-D-glucofuranosyl)adenine (III). 9-(2,5,6-Tri-O-acetyl-3-O-methanesulfonyl-β-D-glucofuranosyl)-N6-benzoyladenine (IV) was prepared by condensation of 1,2,5,6-tetra-O-acetyl-3-O-methanesulfonyl-D-glucofuranose with N6-benzoyladenine. Reaction of mesyl derivative III with methanolic sodium methoxide and of mesyl derivative IV with methanolic ammonia led to 2',3'-anhydronucleosides V and VI which were acetylated to give the respective 9-(5,6-di-O-acetyl-2,3-anhydro-β-D-mannofuranosyl)adenine (VII) and 9-(5,6-di-O-acetyl-2,3-anhydro-β-D-allofuranosyl)adenine (VIII). Epoxy derivative VII was cleaved with bromotrimethylsilane, affording a mixture of 9-(5,6-di-O-acetyl-2-bromo-2-deoxy-β-D-glucofuranosyl)adenine (Xa) and 9-(5,6-di-O-acetyl-3-bromo-3-deoxy-β-D-altrofuranosyl)adenine (XIa), epoxy derivative VIII was cleaved analogously to give 9-(5,6-di-O-acetyl-3-bromo-3-deoxy-β-D-glucofuranosyl)adenine (XIIa). Their dehalogenation with tributylstannane and subsequent deacetylation led to 9-(2-deoxy-β-D-arabino-hexofuranosyl)adenine (Xc), 9-(3-deoxy-β-D-arabino-hexofuranosyl)adenine (XIc) and 9-(3-deoxy-β-D-ribo-hexofuranosyl)adenine (XIIc). 9-(2,5,6-Tri-O-acetyl-3-bromo-3-deoxy-β-D-glucofuranosyl)adenine (XIId), which was prepared by acetylation of XIIa, on reductive elimination with Cu/Zn couple and subsequent deacetylation gave 9-(2,3-dideoxy-β-D-erythro-hex-2-enofuranosyl)adenine (XIV). 9-(2,3-Dideoxy-β-D-erythro-hexofuranosyl)adenine (XVI) was obtained either by catalytic hydrogenation of bromo derivative XIId followed by deacetylation, or by catalytic hydrogenation of didehydro derivative XIV. The synthesized nucleosides were tested for antiviral activity.

5-Benzyloxymethyl-NNH2-benzoyl-cytosine (4) is formed from 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine (1) in 80% yield by benzylation and subsequent benzoylation. The benzylation readily takes place with benzyl alcohol and catalytic amounts of hydrochloric acid in tetrahydrothiophen-1.1-dioxide as solvent. — 4 is quantitatively converted in pyridine at room temperature to a toluene soluble mercury (II) salt 5.5 condenses easily with 2.3.5-tribenzoyl-D-ribofuranosyl chloride to give the β-nucleoside 6, no a-anomer being found. — The removal of all protecting groups by catalytic hydrogenation and treatment with sodium methoxide or ammonia leads to cristalline 5-hydroxymethyl cytidine 10 (ca. 60% yields based on 1). — In an analogous manner N-3-β-D-glucosyl-5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine 15 is prepared. — Selective removal of certain of the protecting groups in 6 and 11 yields potentially valuable synthetic intermediates.

Cyclization of L′-methoxy-L-methyldiglycolic aldehyde (1) with nitromethane and sodium methoxide in methanol (40 min at room temperature) furnished four crystalline methyl 3,6-dideoxy-3-nitro-α-L-hexopyranosides in a combined yield of 75%. Chromatographic separation gave the gluco (2), manno (3), talo (4), and galacto (5) isomers in an approximate ratio of 18:8:3:1. Shortening of the reaction time to 25 min decreased the total yield to 53% at the expense of 2, the ratio of isolated products being 8:8:2.3:1.7. The configurations of the new nitro glycosides 3, 4, and 5 were proven by catalytic hydrogenation followed by N-acetylation, which gave the known 3-acetamido derivatives.

The catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to formate by Co(dmpe)2H can proceed via direct hydride transfer or via CO2 coordination to Co followed by reductive elimination of formate.

Addition of methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-α-D-erythro-hexopyranosid-3-ulose (1) to excess nitromethane and 1 molar equivalent of sodium methoxide in methanol gave methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-3-C-nitromethyl-α-D-ribo-hexopyranoside (2) and the arabino stereoisomer 3 in 63 and 22% yields, respectively. The proof of structure of the branched-chain deoxy nitro sugars is described. Debenzylidenation of the nitro sugars afforded the partially blocked nitro sugars 4 and 5. Catalytic hydrogenation of the latter or of 2 and 3 yielded the branched-chain aminodeoxy sugars 7 and 9 (7 characterized as its N-acetyl derivative and 9 as its N-2,4-dinitrophenyl derivative).

In cultured skeletal muscle cells of chick, one intermediate filament protein, vimentin, is primarily formed and then synthesis of desmin follows. Coexistence of vimentin and desmin has been immunocytochemically confirmed in chick embryonic skeletal musclecells. Immunofluorescent localization of vimentin and desmin has been described in developing myocardial cells of hamster. However, initial localization of desmin and vimentin in early embryonic heart has not been reported in detail. By quick-freeze deep-etch method a loose network of intermediate filaments was revealed to exist surrounding myofibrils. In this report, immunocytochemical localization of desmin and vimentin is visualized in early stages of chick embryonic my ocardium.Chick embryos, Hamburger-Hamilton (H-H) stage 8 to hatch, and 1 day old postnatal chicks were used in this study. For immunofluorescence study, each embryo was fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and embedded in Epon 812. De-epoxinized with sodium methoxide, semithin sections were stained with primary antibodies (rabbit anti-desmin antibody and anti-vimentin antibody)and secondary antibody (RITC conjugated goat-anti rabbit IgG).
