Diphosphorylation of select nucleophiles was achieved by treatment with neutral, doubly zwitterionic adducts of nucleophilic N-donor bases (pyridine, DABCO) and P2O5. Treatment of the PPN salt of TriMP with TsCl and triethylamine yielded a mixed PPN and triethylammonium salt of tosyl TriMP ([PPN][HNEt3][P3O9Ts], 1), isolated in 55% yield and crystallographically characterized. Treatment of 1 with two equivalents of DABCO led in situ to an unisolated ring opened intermediate, an adduct of two DABCO molecules and (P 3 O 8 ) -([DABCO-P3O8-DABCO] − , 2). Reaction of 2 with additional DABCO results in precipitation of a neutral, doubly zwitterionic adduct of DABCO and P2O5 (DABCO-P2O5-DABCO, 3). Compound 3 is more conveniently prepared by treatment of polymeric phosphorus pentoxide ((P2O5)∞) with DABCO in acetonitrile. Both syntheses also result in an inseparable neutral triply zwitterionic impurity, an adduct of three molecules of DABCO and P4O10 (P4O10(DABCO)3, 4). Both 3 and 4 were crystallographically characterized by careful selection of crystals for X-ray diffraction. A similar neutral, doubly zwitterionic adduct of pyridine and P2O5 (Pyr-P2O5-Pyr, 5) was prepared by treatment of (P2O5)∞ with pyridine in 77% yield. Due to higher purity, 5 was used for further reactivity studies. Compound 5 reacts with DBU (6, 65% yield), diethylamine (7, 77% yield), and methanol (8 and 9) to producing the corresponding difunctionalized pyrophosphate derivatives. Compound 5 also reacts with the TBA salt of AMP to produce adenosinesubstituted TriMP (10) as an intermediate that was ring opened with water, diethylamine, and the TBA salt of UMP, yielding ammonium salts of ATP (11, 89% yield), γ-diethylamino-ATP (12, 58% yield), and adenosine uridine tetraphosphate (13, 74% yield) after purification by AX-HPLC. Similarly, adenosine tetraphosphate ( 14) was prepared in 40% yield by treatment of 5 with ADP and hydrolysis of the resulting intermediate.
