Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing a novel oligonucleic acid compound. [Background technology]
[0002] Known methods for producing oligonucleic acid compounds include solid-phase and liquid-phase methods. The solid-phase method is a heterogeneous reaction method in which nucleic acids are extended while contacting a substrate supported on a solid support with a solution containing a reaction reagent. The solid-phase method uses a reaction vessel equipped with a filter, a so-called batch method in which the reaction is carried out in the vessel (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 1). A pseudo-flow synthesis method, similar to that used in automated nucleic acid synthesizers (e.g., DNA and RNA synthesizers), is also known in which the solid support is placed in a column and a solution containing a reaction reagent is passed through the column to cause the reaction. On the other hand, the liquid phase method is a homogeneous reaction method in which nucleic acids are elongated by reacting them in a solution containing both a substrate and a reaction reagent. The liquid phase method also uses a batch method in which the reaction is carried out in a container (see, for example, Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 3).
[0003] Whether solid-phase, liquid-phase, batch, or pseudo-flow synthesis is used, chemical synthesis of oligonucleic acid compounds involves repeatedly repeating a "deprotection" reaction, which removes the protecting groups on the oxygen atoms or amino groups on the nucleic acid compound, and a "condensation" reaction, which forms a bond between the oxygen atom or nitrogen atom that has been deprotected and is now reactive, and the phosphorus atom, thereby extending the nucleic acid. In particular, controlling the reaction efficiency and reaction rate in the "condensation" reaction, which forms a bond between a phosphorus atom and an oxygen atom or a nitrogen atom, is extremely important in the production of oligonucleic acid compounds, and the conditions for this condensation reaction are factors that have a significant impact on the production period of oligonucleic acid compounds.
[0004] Because the solid-phase method is a heterogeneous reaction between a solid support and a solution, it is known that the reactivity of the condensation reaction decreases due to steric hindrance caused by the solid support. Polystyrene resin is generally used as the solid support, but during the reaction, it swells in the reaction solvent used, and its volume increases compared to its dry state. The degree of swelling depends on the reaction solvent. Therefore, the reaction efficiency and reaction rate of the condensation reaction in the solid phase method depend on the reaction solvent used. In particular, the swelling degree of polystyrene resin is not so large in polar solvents such as acetonitrile, which is generally used in the synthesis of oligonucleic acid compounds, and therefore the use of polar solvents in the solid phase method is not preferable from the viewpoint of improving the reaction efficiency and reaction rate of the condensation reaction.
[0005] On the other hand, as a homogeneous reaction method, a liquid phase method and a synthesis method using a hydrophobic group-bound nucleoside or a pseudo-solid phase protected nucleoside are known. The liquid-phase method is a homogeneous reaction method in which the reaction is carried out in a solution containing both the substrate and the reaction reagent. Compared to the solid-phase method, the reaction efficiency is higher and the reaction rate is faster, but column purification is required to remove impurities such as the reaction reagent and reaction solvent. Similar to the liquid-phase method, synthesis methods using hydrophobic-group-bound nucleosides or pseudo-solid-phase protected nucleosides can be carried out in a homogeneous system, resulting in higher reaction efficiency and faster reaction rates than solid-phase methods. Furthermore, after the reaction, unnecessary reaction reagents and reaction solvents can be removed by precipitating the target compound from the reaction mixture (see, for example, Patent Document 4). In these homogeneous reaction methods, a nonpolar solvent such as chloroform is used in the condensation reaction. However, as reported in the synthesis of morpholino nucleic acid (see, for example, Patent Document 5), the condensation reaction in a nonpolar solvent requires a very long time, and therefore, the use of a nonpolar solvent in a homogeneous reaction is not preferable from the viewpoint of improving the reaction efficiency and reaction rate of the condensation reaction.

[26] in which Z is a substituent [8A], followed by removing the 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl group with piperidine. The condensation reaction and the deprotection reaction of the 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl group can be carried out according to known methods. (h) For example, compound

[26] in which Z is a substituent [8E], and then deprotecting the tert-butoxycarbonyl group in the molecule with an acid. (i) According to a known method (see, for example, Japanese Patent No. 5705512, Tetrahedron Letters, Vol. 53, 1936-1939 (2012), WO 2014 / 189142A1, WO 2016 / 060135A1, WO 2016 / 140232A1), Z is the substituent [8I], the substituent [8J], the substituent [8K], the substituent [8L], the substituent [8N], the compound
