Through systematical comparison of various N4-protected cytosine derivatives in the glycosylation step of gemcitabine synthesis, highly beta-stereoselective and high yielding TBAI catalyzed N-glycosylation was achieved with N4-Bz cytosine and anomeric mixture of 2,2‘-difluororibose mesylate donor. The subsequent global deprotection gave gemcitabine efficiently. Meanwhile, the anomeric chloride intermediate and fluoride-displaced side products of this N-glycosylation were identified, too. This new glycosylation method reveals the importance of N4-protection in the stereoselective preparation of pyrimidine nucleoside, also provides a potential alternative to current industrial process to gemcitabine.

A new route is presented to prepare analogs of nucleosides homologated at the 3′- and 5′-positions. This route, applicable to both the D- and L-enantiomeric forms, is suitable for the preparation of monomeric bis-homonucleosides needed for the synthesis o
