J. Matulicadamic et al., SYNTHESIS OF PYRIDINONE RIBONUCLEOSIDE 3-O-PHOSPHORAMIDITES AND THEIRINCORPORATION INTO OLIGORIBONUCLEOTIDES, Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 6(4), 1996, pp. 373-378
Protected pyridin-2- and pyridin-4-one ribonucleosides 3 and 9 were sy
nthesized using a one-pot reaction of silylated bases with 1-O-acetyl-
tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-ribofuranose (2) in the presence of CF(3)SO(3)SiM
e(3) The nucleosides were converted in 4 steps into 3'-O-phosphoramidi
tes 7 and 11 which were incorporated into hammerhead ribozyme substrat
es using solid-phase phosphoramidite chemistry.
