A novel modular and practical methodology for preparation of 6-substituted pyridin-3-yl C-nucleosides was developed. The Heck reaction of 2-chloro-5-iodopyridine with a 3'-TBDMS-protected glycal gave a 6-chloropyridin-3-yl nucleoside analogue, which was then desilylated, selectively reduced, and reprotected to give the TBDMS-protected 6-chloropyridin-3-yl C-2'-deoxyribonucleoside as a pure beta-anomer in a total yield of 39% over four steps. This key intermediate was then subjected to a series of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, aminations, and alkoxylations to give a series of protected 1beta-(6-alkyl-, 6-aryl-, 6-hetaryl, 6-amino-, and 6-tert-butoxypyridin-3-yl)-2'-deoxyribonucleosides. 6-Unsubstituted pyridin-3-yl C-nucleoside was prepared by catalytic hydrogenation of the chloro derivative and 6-oxopyridine C-nucleoside by treatment of the 6-tert-butoxy derivative with TFA. Deprotection of all the silylated nucleosides by Et3N.3HF gave a series of free C-nucleosides (10 examples).

A general modular and practical methodology for preparation of diverse 5-substituted pyridin-2-yl and 6-substituted pyridin-3-yl C-ribonucleosides was developed. Regioselective lithiation of 2,5-dibromopyridine proceeded at position 5 or 2 depending on the solvent, and the resulting bromopyridyl lithium species underwent additions to TBS-protected ribonolactone and follow-up transformations to corresponding acetylated hemiketal intermediates 7 and 10 that were diastereoselectively reduced to give either 5-bromopyridin-2-yl or 6-bromopyridin-3-yl silyl-protected C-ribonucleosides 8 or 11 in 68% and 77% overall yields as pure β-anomers. These bromopyridyl C-nucleoside intermediates were then subjected to a series of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, aminations, aminocarbonylations, and hydroxylations to give a series of protected 1β-(5-alkyl-, 5-aryl-, 5-amino-, 5-carbamoyl-, and 5-hydroxypyridin-2-yl)-C-ribonucleosides 13a-i and β-(6-alkyl-, 6-aryl-, 6-amino-, 6-carbamoyl-, and 6-hydroxypyridin-3-yl)-C-ribonucleosides 15a-i. Deprotection of silylated nucleosides by Et(3)N·3HF, TBAF, or TFA gave a series of free C-nucleosides 14a-i and 16a-i.
