Selective hydrolysis of the methyl esters (III) with LiOH provides the desired cis-dioxolane acid (IX) and the corresponding trans isomer (VIII), which are separated by column chromatography. Alternatively, ester (III) is subjected to enzymatic resolution with several different enzymes to provide a mixture of the undesired trans-dioxolane acid (VIII) and the unreacted cis-ester (X), separable by partition between H2O and EtOAc. The desired cis-ester (X) is then hydrolyzed with LiOH to the carboxylic acid (IX). Oxidative decarboxylation of acid (IX) employing lead tetraacetate furnishes the acetoxy dioxolane (XI). After silylation of 2-amino-6-chloropurine (XII) with hexamethyldisilazane in the presence of ammonium sulfate, coupling with the acetoxy dioxolane (XI), promoted by either trimethylsilyl triflate or by iodotrimethylsilane, gives rise to an anomeric mixture of adducts (XIII). Following chromatographic isolation of the target cis-anomer, chloride displacement with cyclopropylamine yields the diamino purine derivative (XIV). The benzoate ester group of (XIV) is finally hydrolyzed to the title compound by means of methanolic ammonia.
