Synthesis of Polycyclic Hetero-Fused 7-Deazapurine Heterocycles and Nucleosides through C-H Dibenzothiophenation and Negishi Coupling.

ABSTRACT: A new approach for synthesizing polycyclic heterofused 7-deazapurine heterocycles and the corresponding nucleosides was developed based on C-H functionalization of diverse (hetero)aromatics with dibenzothiophene-S-oxide followed by the Negishi cross-cooupling with bis(4,6-dichloropyrimidin-5-yl)zinc. This cross-coupling afforded a series of (het)aryl-pyrimidines that were converted to fused deazapurine heterocycles through azidation and thermal cyclization. The fused heterocycles were glycosylated to the corresponding 2'-deoxy- and ribonucleosides, and a series of derivatives were prepared by nucleophilic substitutions at position 4. Four series of new polycyclic thieno-fused 7-deazapurine nucleosides were synthesized using this strategy. Most of the deoxyribonucleosides showed good
