ABSTRACT
Nucleosides with a substituent at the 4'-position have received much attention as antiviral drugs and as raw materials for oligonucleotide therapeutics. 4'-Modified nucleosides are generally synthesized using ionic reactions through the introduction of electrophilic or nucleophilic substituents at the 4'-position. However, their synthetic methods have some drawbacks; e.g., (i) it is difficult to control stereoselectivity at the 4'-position; (ii) complex protection-deprotection processes are required; (iii) the range of electrophiles and nucleophiles is limited. With this background, we considered that a carbon radical generated at the 4'-position would be a useful intermediate for the synthesis of 4'-modified nucleosides. In this review, two novel methods for the generation of 4'-carbon radicals are summarized. The first utilizes radical deformylation involving ß-fragmentation of a hydroxymethyl group at the 4'-position. The other utilizes radical decarboxylation and 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (1,5-HAT), which enables the generation of 4'-carbon radicals while retaining the hydroxymethyl group at the 4'-position. These methods enable the rapid and facile generation of 4'-carbon radicals and provide various 4'-modified nucleosides including 2',4'-bridged structures.
