A convenient synthetic method for preparing 3-deazapurine nucleosides (3-deazainosine, 3-deazaadenosine, and 3-deazaguanosine) from inosine via a 5-ethynyl-1-β-D-ribofuranosylimidazole-4-carboxamide (EICAR) derivative, which is a key intermediate, is described. A large-scale synthesis of an EICAR derivative starting from inosine was achieved in six steps via dinitrophenylation at the N1 position followed by ring opening, iodination of the resulting 5-amino group, and a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction. The resulting EICAR derivative was then converted into 3-deazainosine, 3-deazaadenosine, and 3-deazaguanosine. This route enabled us to synthesize 3-deazapurine nucleosides conveniently in good yields. © 2021 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007288 Inosine A purine nucleoside that has hypoxanthine linked by the N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of ribose. It is an intermediate in the degradation of purines and purine nucleosides to uric acid and in pathways of purine salvage. It also occurs in the anticodon of certain transfer RNA molecules. (Dorland, 28th ed)
D009705 Nucleosides Purine or pyrimidine bases attached to a ribose or deoxyribose. (From King & Stansfield, A Dictionary of Genetics, 4th ed) Nucleoside,Nucleoside Analog,Nucleoside Analogs,Analog, Nucleoside,Analogs, Nucleoside
D006151 Guanosine A purine nucleoside that has guanine linked by its N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of ribose. It is a component of ribonucleic acid and its nucleotides play important roles in metabolism. (From Dorland, 28th ed)
D014372 Tubercidin An antibiotic purine ribonucleoside that readily substitutes for adenosine in the biological system, but its incorporation into DNA and RNA has an inhibitory effect on the metabolism of these nucleic acids. 7-Deazaadenosine,4-Amino-7 beta-D-ribofuranosyl-7H-pyrrolo(2,3-d)pyrimidine,Deazaadenosine,7 Deazaadenosine
