The present invention is directed to a chiral reagent that is used to synthesize stereocontrolled phosphorus atom-modified oligonucleotide derivatives.
JP 2005-89441 A discloses a method for producing a derivative of nucleotides called an oxazaphospholidine method. However, the isolate yield of the monomers is low and the method requires special capping agents that are not commercially available. Further obtained monomers are chemically unstable. Furthermore, the isolate yields of oligonucleotide derivatives are not high. It is thought that the low yield of oligonucleotide derivatives is caused by the degradation reactions under the de-protection steps.

Stereospecific Condensation Step

Usually, the chiral intermediate of Va ((Vb), (Va′), or (Vb′)) is not isolated and undergoes a reaction in the same pot with a nucleoside or modified nucleoside to provide a chiral phosphite compound, a condensed intermediate. In other embodiments, when the method is performed via solid phase synthesis, the solid support comprising the compound is filtered away from side products, impurities, and/or reagents.
Capping Step
If the final nucleic acid is larger than a dimer, the unreacted —OH moiety is capped with a blocking group and the chiral auxiliary in the compound may also be capped with a blocking group to form a capped condensed intermediate. If the final nucleic acid is a dimer, then the capping step is not necessary.

Chain Elongation Cycle and De-Protection Step
The capped condensed intermediate is deblocked to remove the blocking group at the 5′-end of the growing nucleic acid chain to provide a compound. The compound is optionally allowed to re-enter the chain elongation cycle to form a condensed intermediate, a capped condensed intermediate, a modified capped condensed intermediate, and a 5′-deprotected modified capped intermediate. Following at least one round of chain elongation cycle, the 5′-deprotected modified capped intermediate is further deblocked by removal of the chiral auxiliary ligand and other protecting groups, e.g., nucleobase, modified nucleobase, sugar and modified sugar protecting groups, to provide a nucleic acid. In other embodiments, the nucleoside comprising a 5′-OH moiety is an intermediate from a previous chain elongation cycle as described herein. In yet other embodiments, the nucleoside comprising a 5′-OH moiety is an intermediate obtained from another known nucleic acid synthetic method. In embodiments where a solid support is used, the phosphorus-atom modified nucleic acid is then cleaved from the solid support. In certain embodiments, the nucleic acids is left attached on the solid support for purification purposes and then cleaved from the solid support following purification.

The first step is reacting a nucleoside 3′-phosphoramidite derivative which is represented by formula (Va), (Vb), (Va′), or (Vb′) with the second activating reagent and a nucleoside to form a condensed intermediate. The second step is converting the condensed intermediate to the nucleic acid comprising a chiral X-phosphonate moiety.

The mixture was then allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 30 min. The resultant N-methylmorpholine hydrochloride was removed by filtration under nitrogen, and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure to afford crude 2-chloro-1,3,2-oxazaphospholidine derivative.

Et3N (0.58 mL, 4.2 mmol) was added, and the mixture was cooled to −78 degrees C. A 0.5 M solution of the corresponding crude 2-chloro-1,3,2-oxazaphospholidine derivative in freshly distilled THF (3.6 mL, 1.80 mmol) was added dropwise via a syringe, and the mixture was stirred for 15 min at room temperature. A saturated NaHCO3 aqueous solution (70 mL) and CHCl3 (70 mL) were then added, and the organic layer was separated and washed with saturated NaHCO3 aqueous solutions (2×70 mL). The combined aqueous layers were back-extracted with CHCl3 (70 mL). The organic layers were combined, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel to afford 3a (829 mg, 90%) as a white foam.

General Procedure for the Synthesis of Chrial-Oligos:
The automated solid-phase synthesis of chiral-oligos were performed according to the cycles shown in Table 1. After the synthesis, the resin was treated with a 25% NH3 aqueous solution (1 mL) for 12 h at 55 degrees C. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and the resin was removed by membrane filtration. The filtrate was concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in H2O (3 mL) and analyzed by RP-UPLC-MS with a linear gradient of acetonitrile (0-50%/30 min) in 0.1 M triethylammonium acetate buffer (pH 7.0) at 50 degrees C. at a rate of 0.3 mL/min.
The above Compound 25, which represents a conventional monomer, was used to produce oligos.
Analysis
The monomers of the working examples were chemically stable. The isolate yield of the monomers were more than 80%, which was higher that of conventional method.
We synthesized oligonucleotide derivatives using the chiral reagents of the above working examples based on the second general procedure and monomers of the above working examples based on the first general procedure. As shown in
