Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, and in particular to a method for synthesizing 3'-ONH2-ribonucleotide. Background Art

[0002] 3′-position protected triphosphate monomers can be used for the synthesis of oligonucleotides catalyzed by polymerases (e.g., existing documents US7544794B1, CN113195720A). A suitable easily leaving 3′-position protecting group is a necessary condition to avoid self-coupling or multiple coupling at the 3′-end. Among them, the 3′-ONH2 group is the most commonly used because of its small size, enzyme recognition, and easy removal. The synthesis of 3′-ONH2-deoxyribonucleotides has been reported in many literature reports and patents, such as Xiaoyun Lu et al. Enzymatic DNA Synthesis by Engineering Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase. ACS Catal. 2022, 12, 2988-2997. and US8034923B1, etc. Existing documents US7544794B1 and US8212020B2 disclose methods for synthesizing 3′-O-amino-2′-deoxyribonucleotides using 2′-deoxyribonucleotides as raw materials. The method includes several steps, the most notable of which is: after protecting the 5′-hydroxyl group, the 3′-hydroxyl group is flipped using Mitsunobu conditions, and then the -ONH2 group with a protecting group is inserted at the 3′-position in the form of O-phthalimide, and after deprotection, NH2 is protected in the form of oxime, and then phosphorylated at the 5′-position, and finally the amino protecting group is removed. For ribonucleotides (RNA monomers), the presence of a hydroxyl group at the 2′-position makes it more difficult to obtain the corresponding 3′-ONH2 ribonucleotide. U.S. Patent US20220041643A1 discloses a method for an amino group at the 3′-position of an RNA monomer, but the yield of the method is very low and the route is relatively long, and the corresponding triphosphate monomer is not applied. Therefore, the strategy used for deoxyribonucleotides (DNA monomers) is not applicable to ribonucleotides. In addition, there are currently no reports on the synthesis of 3′-ONH2-ribonucleotides.

[0003] On this basis, it is of great significance to study and develop a method for synthesizing 3′-ONH2-ribonucleotide with high yield and short synthetic route. Summary of the invention

[0146] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects: the above synthesis method of the present application uses an electrophilic NH2 donor reagent (diphenylphosphorylhydroxylamine) to introduce an -ONH2 protective group at the 3′-position through a nucleophilic substitution reaction, and then sequentially performs the first deprotection reaction and the second deprotection reaction and the reaction of step S6 (the G group is connected to 3′-ONH2). Finally, a triphosphate part is constructed at the 5′-position through a phosphorylation reaction (step S7), and finally the protection of the G group is removed to obtain the target product 3′-ONH2 ribonucleotide, i.e., a compound of the structure shown in formula (IX). The target product obtained by the above synthesis method of the present application has a high yield and a short synthesis route.
