Treatment of 1,2,5,6-diisopropylidene-D-glucofuranose (I) with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride and pyridine provides triflate (II), which is then displaced with sodium azide to furnish the 3-azido derivative (III). Oxidative cleavage of the 5,6-diol acetonide of (III) by means of periodic acid leads to aldehyde (IV). Further oxidation of (IV) with a catalytic amount of ruthenium trichloride in the presence of sodium periodate affords carboxylic acid (V). After activation of acid (V) with oxalyl chloride, coupling with methylamine provides amide (VI). Acidic hydrolysis of the remaining 1,2-acetonide of (VI) in the presence of acetic anhydride gives rise to diacetate (VII). Silylation of 6-chloropurine (VIII), followed by coupling with the diacetyl ribofuranuronic acid derivative (VII) in the presence of trimethylsilyl triflate yields the purine glycoside (IX). The acetate ester group of (IX) is then removed by methanolysis in the presence of either methylamine or triethylamine, to produce alcohol (X). Subsequent azido group reduction in (X) by means of triphenylphosphine leads to amine (XI), which is then protected as the N-Boc derivative (XII) employing di-t-butyl dicarbonate.
