A new motif for restricting 5‘-nucleotides to highly biologically relevant conformations has been developed. The 5‘,6-oxomethylene transglycosidically tethered versions of uridine 5‘-monophosphate and 2‘-deoxyuridine 5‘-monophosphate (1and2, respectively) were synthesized in 10−11 steps from their respective natural nucleoside precursors along routes general to the preparation of tethered versions of a wide variety of 5‘-nucleotide-based compounds. In both routes, a shelf-stable 6-hydroxymethyl pyrimidine nucleoside 5‘-carboxaldehyde is the key intermediate. It exists in a carbohydrate-like fashion in a cyclic hemiacetal form under aprotic conditions. The phosphorylated cyclic hemiacetals1and2were isolated as binary mixtures of 5‘-diastereomers differing principally in the trajectory of the phosphate group with respect to the carbohydrate. By1H NMR, both1and2were demonstrated to be stable to hydrolysis at ambient temperature in D2O solution for at least 2 months. The oxomethylene transglycosidic tether as deployed in1and2leaves all of the native 5‘-nucleotide molecular recognition sites intact while it restricts the framework to a low-energy anti glycosyl conformation and an extended phosphate disposition. This provides a spatial presence that approximates nearly three-quarters of the protein-bound 5‘-nucleotide ligands described in the Protein Data Bank. The tether has a low structural and electronic impact, occupies a region of space (over the β-face of the furan ring) seldom penetrated by proteins, and should be accommodated as readily on purine-based 5‘-nucleotide frameworks as on pyrimidine-based ones. Because of its unique and attractive features, this new motif for the conformational restriction of 5‘-nucleotides is expected to be useful for producing probes of structure/function relationships and in assessing the conformational binding requirements that enzymes and receptor sites have for their natural 5‘-nucleotide-based ligands.
