Nucleophilic displacement reactions of 5'-derivatised nucleosides in a vibration ball mill.


ABSTRACT: Vibration ball-milling in a zirconia-lined vessel afforded clean and quantitative nucleophilic displacement reactions between 4-methoxybenzylthiolate salts and nucleoside 5'-halides or 5'-tosylates in five to 60 minutes. Under these conditions, commonly-encountered nucleoside cyclisation byproducts (especially of purine nucleosides) were not observed. Liquid-assisted grinding of the same 5'-iodide and 5'-tosylate substrates with potassium selenocyanate in the presence of DMF produced the corresponding 5'-selenocyanates in variable yields over the course of between one and eleven hours thereby avoiding the preparation and use of hygroscopic tetrabutylammonium salts.
