Reactions of alpha,alpha'-dichloroazo compounds 2 with SbCl5 gave 1-(chloroalkyl)-1-aza-2-azoniaallene salts 3 as reactive intermediates. Cycloadditions of 3 with the ribofuranosyl cyanide 4 afforded the beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazolium salts 5, which rearranged spontaneously to salts 6. Hydrolysis of 6 gave the 1,2,4-triazole C-nucleosides 7, which yielded the free nucleosides 8 after deblocking. Analogously, 12 was prepared from the cycloaddition of 4 with the alpha-chloroazo compound 10 in the presence of SbCl5. Deblocking of 12 with sodium methoxide afforded 13. Compounds 8a,b,e,f and 13 were tested against HIV-1, HIV-2, HSV-1 and HSV-2 and were found to be inactive.
New acylated 5-thio-beta-D-glucopyranosylimino-disusbstituted 1,3,4-thiadiazols 8, and 11 were prepared, via spontaneous rearrangements, by cycloaddition of the glycosyl isothiocyanate 2 with the reactive intermediates 1-aza-2-azoniaallene hexachloroantimonates 4 and 6, respectively. Reaction of 2 with aminoacetone or chloroethylamine afforded the acylated 5-thio-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-4-imidazoline-2-thione nucleoside 16 and glucopyranosylamino-2-thiazoline derivative 18, respectively. Deblocking of 8, 11, 17 and 19 furnished the free nucleoside analogues 9, 12, 18 and 20, respectively. Analogously, treatment of 2 with chloroethylamine in the 1:2 ratio afforded the thioureylendisaccharide 21. No in vitro antiviral activity against HIV-1, HIV-2, human cytomegallovirus (HMCV), has been found for the new synthesized compounds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
