“…[25] The formation of the isomer 17β was not detected during the cyclization of the 14-(5R) isomer by the same procedure, which occurred in a moderate 39 % yield. Alcohol activation using triflic anhydride or the Mitsunobu [26] procedure does not improve the intramolecular cyclization reaction of this series of compounds.…”

“…[31] However, reactions between enamine 1 ( Figure 2) and different halogenated derivatives of the required aglycons with use of various P-and As-ligands and different reaction conditions never produced the desired nucleosides. Alternative methods involving the addition of the organometallic derivative of the nucleobases variously to the corresponding lactam 2, [32,33] to the corresponding hemiaminal 3 or to the N-acyliminium ion [34][35][36][37][38] obtained in situ from 3 proved unsuccessful as well.…”

The dual recognition properties of pyrrolidino DNA species as parallel triplex-forming oligonucleotides were previously found to be strongly dependent upon the nature of the pyrimidine bases. In the structure-activity study presented here we were able to exclude this differential binding being due to their 2-oxo function. We had previously reported on the incorporation of pyrrolidino C-nucleosides into triplex-forming 2Ј-deoxyoligonucleotides (TFOs). The basic nitrogen atom that replaces the 4Ј-oxygen atom of the 2Ј-deoxysugar in such modified units introduces a positive charge in the third strand, and this is able to produce favourable electrostatic interaction with the negatively charged DNA target duplex. A first series of pyrrolidino pseudonucleosides with the bases isocytosine and uracil proved successful for GC base-pair recognition, but was unsuccessful for AT base-pair recognition within the parallel triplex binding motif. Here we report on
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.
