Sano, Hiroshi,Takeda, Toshimitsu,Migita, Toshihiko
, p. 402 - 403 (1988)
The conversion of acetylated sugars 1 to deoxy sugars 2 by the action of triphenylsilane under homolytic conditions is reported.Both furanoses and pyranoses bearing an acetylated primary or seondary alcohol are effectively deoxygenated.

A practical route towards the synthesis of 1,2,3-tri-O-acetyl-5-deoxy-D-ribofuranose from D-ribose is described. The key steps include deoxygenation of methyl 2,3-O-isopropylidene-5-O-sulfonyloxy-β-D-ribofuranoside by reductive displacement employing hydride reagents. Subsequent total hydrolysis followed by acetylation led to the title compound in 56% overall yield from D-ribose. The sequence is simple, inexpensive, high yielding and clearly suitable for multi-gram preparations.

5-(2-Oxopropylideneamino)-6-d-ribitylaminouracil (5-OP-RU) is a natural product formed during bacterial synthesis of vitamin B2. It potently activates mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT) cells and has immunomodulatory, inflammatory, and anticancer properties. This highly polar and unstable compound forms a remarkably stable Schiff base with a lysine residue in major histocompatibility complex class I–related protein (MR1) expressed in antigen-presenting cells. Inspired by the importance of the ribityl moiety of 5-OP-RU for binding to both MR1 and the T cell receptor (TCR) on MAIT cells, each OH was removed in silico. DFT calculations and MD simulations revealed a very stable hydrogen bond between the C3′?OH and uracil N1H, which profoundly restricts flexibility and positioning of each ribityl-OH, potentially impacting their interactions with MR1 and TCR. By using deoxygenation strategies and kinetically controlled imine formation, four monodeoxyribityl and four monohydroxyalkyl analogues of 5-OP-RU were synthesised as new tools for probing T cell activation mechanisms.

Simplifying access to synthetic nucleosides is of interest due to their widespread use as biochemical or anticancer and antiviral agents. Herein, a direct stereoselective method to access an expansive range of both natural and synthetic nucleosides up to a gram scale, through direct glycosylation of nucleobases with 5-O-tritylribose and other C5-modified ribose derivatives, is discussed in detail. The reaction proceeds through nucleophilic epoxide ring opening of an in situ formed 1,2-anhydrosugar (termed “anhydrose”) under modified Mitsunobu reaction conditions. The scope of the reaction in the synthesis of diverse nucleosides and other 1-substituted riboside derivatives is described. In addition, a mechanistic insight into the formation of this key glycosyl donor intermediate is provided.
