Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for stereoselective ⁇ preparing 2 '-deoxy-2 ',2 '-difluorocytidine.
- 2 '-Deoxy-2 ',2'-difluorocytidine (Gemcitabine) of formula (I) has a cytosine nucleobase stereochemically-oriented to ⁇ -direction at the 1 -position of the ribofuranose backbone, and is effective for treating various cancers such as non-small cell lung (NSCLC) 5 pancreatic, bladder, breast or ovarian cancers.
- NSCLC non-small cell lung
- Gemcitabine can be conventionally prepared from a lactol compound as shown in Reaction Scheme 1 via an activated ribofuranose intermediate having a reactive leaving group.
- Examples of the activated ribofuranose intermediate for glycosylation are 1 -sulfonate ribofuranose such as ⁇ -methanesulfonate ribofuranose and 1-halo ribufuranose.
- the ⁇ -methanesulfonate ribofuranose may be reacted with a nucleobase to carry out stereoselective glycosylation to obtain the desired ⁇ -nucleosides in a high yield (See US Patent Nos. 5,371,210, 5,401,838, 5,426,183, 5,594,124 and 5,606,048 and EP Patent No. 577303).
- the 1-halo ribufuranose derivatives may be easily produced under a mild condition (e.g., room temperature) and reacted with an anionic nucleobase to carry out glycosylation (See US Patent No. 5,744,597 and EP Patent No. 577304).
- a mild condition e.g., room temperature
- an anionic nucleobase e.g., a 1-halo ribofuranose derivative
- the glycosylation using a 1-halo ribofuranose derivative is non-stereoselective (i.e., anomerization at 1 -position is occurred), leading to a mixture of ⁇ - and ⁇ -nucleosides and ultimately to a low yield of the desired ⁇ -nucleoside.
- US Patent No. 5,223,608 discloses a process for selectively isolating the ⁇ -anomer of cytidinenucleoside from a 1 :1 mixture of ⁇ - and ⁇ - cytidinenucleoside anomers by converting the mixture into the hydrochloride form, dissolving the hydrochloride mixture in hot water, adjusting pH of the resulting solution to 8.2, and cooling and filtering the solution.
- this process also give a low yield of the ⁇ -anomer.
- the present inventors have endeavored to overcome the problems of the prior arts and found that an anomerization is effectively suppressed by removing the halide compound as it is generated during the glycosylation when 1-halo ribofuranose derivative is used and consequently the stereoselectivity can be markedly enhanced.
- R is alkyl
- P 1 is a hydroxy-protecting group
