A Study on Synthesis and Upscaling of 2'-O-AECM-5-methyl Pyrimidine Phosphoramidites for Oligonucleotide Synthesis.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: 2'-O-(N-(Aminoethyl)carbamoyl)methyl-modified 5-methyluridine (AECM-MeU) and 5-methylcytidine (AECM-MeC) phosphoramidites are reported for the first time and prepared in multigram quantities. The syntheses of AECM-MeU and AECM-MeC nucleosides are designed for larger scales (approx. 20 g up until phosphoramidite preparation steps) using low-cost reagents and minimizing chromatographic purifications. Several steps were screened for best conditions, focusing on the most crucial steps such as N3 and/or 2'-OH alkylations, which were improved for larger scale synthesis using phase transfer catalysis (PTC). Moreover, the need of chromatographic purifications was substantially reduced by employing one-pot synthesis and improved work-up strategies.
