Stereoselective synthesis of phosphoramidate alpha(2-6)sialyltransferase transition-state analogue inhibitors.

摘要

The asymmetric synthesis of novel, potent phosphoramidate alpha(2-6)sialyltransferase transition-state analogue inhibitors such as (R)-9 (K(i)=68 microM) is described, via condensation of cytidine phosphitamide 6 with key chiral, non-racemic alpha-aminophosphonates, prepared in >98% ee by Mitsunobu azidation followed by Staudinger reduction of the corresponding chiral, non-racemic alpha-hydroxyphosphonates.
