The resulting mixture was stirred for 50 min a t room temperature, neutralized by the addition of 21 ml of pyridine, and evaporated t’o dryness in vacuo. The residue was shaken with a mixture of 100 ml of CHCl, and 30 ml of H20. The aqueous layer was again extracted with 100 The effectiveness of 3’-deoxyadenosine (1) (cordyml of CHCI,. The CHC13 solutions were combined, dried cepin) as a cytotoxic agent is diminished by its rapid (hlgS04), and evaporated to dryness in vacuo. An acetone conversion into inactive 3’-deoxyinosine (11) through solution of the residue was also evaporated to dryness. This the action of adenosine deaminase.l On the other residue was dissolved in 25 ml of acetone. The addit’ion of 130 ml of cyclohexane produced an oil that crystallized upon seedhand, 2-fluoroadenosine (111), 2 a potent cytotoxic ing; yield 5.45 g. The aqueous layer from above was diluted wit’h enough concentrated NHaOH to give pH 2 and again extracted P with CHC13 (two 100-ml portions). The CHCl3 extracts were worked up as described above. A second crop of crystalline R I material weighing 2.30 g was obtained: total yield 7.73 g (66.5%); [in mp ( e X 0.1 AV mp 141-142’ (lit.6 141-142”): A,, HC1 260 (6.48), 0.1 X NaOH 234 (7.25): v (in cm-l) 3540 (OH), 3140, 3100, 2990, 2820 (CH), 1i25 (C=O), 1670 (NH), 1585 (sh) (C=K). 6-Azauridylyl-(5’-5’)-6-azauridine (lo).-To 268 mg (0.94 mmole) of 7 in 5 ml of anhydrous dioxane was added 132 mg R“ OH (0.52 mmole) of p-nitrophenylphosphorodichloridate followed by I, R = NH,; R’ = H; R” = H 1 ml of dry pyridine. The mixture was stirred at room tempera11, R = O H R = H;R” = H ture for 2 days. Examination of an aliquot by thin layer chro111,R = NH,; R’ = F; R” = OH matography indicated incomplete reaction. Therefore, another IV, R = NH2;R’= F; R = H 10 mg of p-nitrophenylphosphorodichloridatewas added. After V, R = R’= NH2;R”= H another 24 hr, the solution was diluted with 50 ml of H,O and ext,racted with three 150-ml port,ions of CHC1,. The CRCI, itgcnt ,? is relatively inert to the action of adenosine was dried (SlgS04) and evaporated in vacuo. The p-iiit,rophenylbis(2,3-0-isopropylidene-6-azauridine)5’,S”’-phosphate (8) was deaminase. It appeared that iricorporation of a thus obtained as a white, powdery glass; yield 262 mg (74%,). fluorine atom a t the 2 position of 3’-deoxyadenosine Without further purification, the glass in 10 ml of 0.3 S would give a derivative, 3 ’-deoxy-2-fluoroadenosirie KaOH was left 2 hr at room temperature.
