Abstract

A series of unsaturated acyclonucleoside bis(POC) prodrugs of E configuration were synthesized through an expeditious, highly efficient and stereoselective one-step procedure from corresponding bis(POC)allylphosphonate through Ru catalyzed cross-coupling metathesis reaction. The [RuCl2(PCy3)(SIPr)(Indenylidene)]
and [RuCl2(PCy3)(IMes)(benzylidene)] catalysts were employed; the unsaturated ANP were used bore C5-halovinyl uracil, C5-dihalovinyluracil or furanopyrimidine motifs. The chemical cleavage of biolabile (POC) group is a useful pathway to acid phosphonate derivatives.
