Example 105
The parent nucleotide 5′-phosphoramidate (0.1 mmol) was suspended in triethylamine (5 mL) and distilled water (5 mL) in a round bottom flask at room temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred at 37° C. for 24 hours, and then the solvents were removed under reduced pressure. The crude residue was purified on silica eluting with 2-propanol, water, ammonia (8:1:1). The fractions containing the desired product were pooled and concentrated under reduced pressure to remove most of the volatiles. The remaining aqueous solution was transferred to a vial, and was then frozen in a dry ice/acetone bath. The material was then freeze-dried to provide the desired product as a white solid.
