or its salt to form an oxetanocin-related compound represented by the following formula (I): ##STR42## [in formula (I), R.sub.1 and Y are as defined above and B represents a purine base] or its salt.
For example, a compound represented by the following general formula (I'): ##STR43## wherein B is as defined above and R.sub.3 " represents --H or --OH, which is one of the typical examples of the oxetanocin-related compound of this invention, can be synthesized by eliminating the protecting group from a protected oxetanocin-related compound represented by the following general formula (II): ##STR44## wherein P.sub.1 and B are as defined above, or by dehydroxylating the protected oxetanocin-related compound and thereafter eliminating the protecting group.
The protected oxetanocin-related compound represented by general formula (II) can be obtained by converting the sugar part of Oxetanocin A, Oxetanocin H, Oxetanocin X, Oxetanocin G or 2-amino-Oxetanocin A [Journal of Antibiotics, Vol. 40, No. 12, Pages 1788-90 (1987)] by a chemical method.
Next, production process of a typical compound of general formula (I) wherein B is adenine residue (A) will be briefly mentioned below. In the formulas, ##STR45## represents a group represented by the following formula: ##STR46## wherein P.sub.2 represents a protecting group. ##STR47##
In the above-mentioned formulas, P.sub.1 is as defined above and T represents thionocarbonate group.
Each of the steps mentioned above will be explained below.
Step 1: The hydroxyl groups in 2'--CH.sub.2 OH and 3'--CH.sub.2 OH of N(6)-protected oxetanocin 1 are selectively protected with some protecting group.
As the protecting group (P.sub.1 and P.sub.2) of compounds 2 and 3, formyl group, (lower alkyl)-carbonyl groups optionally substituted by halogen atom, lower alkoxy group, benzoyl group or the like (for example, acetyl, chloroacetyl, trichloroacetyl, methoxyacetyl, pivalotyl, phenoxyacetyl, trityloxyacetyl and the like), acyl groups (for example, benzoyl and the like) and optionally substituted lower alkyl groups including unsubstituted lower alkyl groups such as t-butyl and the like and substituted lower alkyl groups such as unsubstituted trityl and substituted trityls [for example, (lower alkoxy)-trityls such as monomethoxytrityl, dimethoxytrityl, trimethoxytrityl and the like] can be referred to.
Further, silyl type protecting groups, i.e. silyl groups having various substituents (for example, trimethylsilyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, t-butyldiphenylsilyl and the like) can also be referred to.
The above-mentioned protecting group can be introduced according to hitherto known methods. Preferably, a protecting group which can be eliminated effectively afterwards is selected. Compound 2 and compound 3 can be separated from each other by column chromatography.
Step 2: This is a step for sulfonylating the hydroxyl group of 2'--CH.sub.2 OH of compound 2. Examples of the sulfonylating agent used for this purpose include alkyl- and aryl-sulfonyl halogenides such as methane-sulfonyl chloride, p-toluenesulfonyl chloride, 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzenesulfonyl chloride and the like.
Step 3: This is a step for forming an olefin by treating compound 4 with a base. As the base, alkali metal lower alcholates such as t-butoxypotassium and the like are preferably used.
Step 4: In this step, the olefin compound 5 is oxidized (Lemieux-von Rudloff oxidation) with potassium permanganate or sodium periodate to form a ketone compound and then reducing the latter with a metal hydride to form a secondary hydroxyl group (Compound 6). Examples of the metal hydride usable for this purpose include sodium boron hydride, sodium trimethoxyboron hydride, sodium boron hydride cyanide, lithium triethoxyaluminum hydride, lithium aluminum hydride and the like.
Step 5: This is a step for converting the resulting secondary alcohol to a thionocarbonate. As an agent for producing thionocarbonate, phenyl chlorocarbonothionate can be used.
Step 6: In this step, compound 7 is treated with tributyltin hydride and .alpha.,.alpha.'-azobis-isobutyronitrile to eliminate the thionocarbonate part.
Step 7: This is a step for eliminating the protecting groups P.sub.1 and P.sub.2. For this purpose, a basic compound exercising no substantial influence upon the oxetane ring is used. Its amount may be any amount, so far as the amount adopted is enough to cause a substantial elimination of the protecting groups. Preferably, it is used in at least an amount theoretically equivalent to the protected oxetanocin-related compound. As the reaction temperature, a temperature not exceeding the boiling point of the used solvent (for example, about -40.degree. C. to about 150.degree. C.) can be adopted. Usually, the reaction is carried out at a temperature of 0.degree. C. to 100.degree. C. When the protecting group P.sub.1 is a silyl type protecting group (silyl group having various substituents), an ammonium compound such as tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride can be used in tetrahydrofuran, for example.
When P.sub.2 is an acyl group, an alkali metal alkoxide such as sodium methoxide, ammonia water, and the like can be used.
A compound of general formula (I) wherein B is adenine residue (A) and Y is ##STR48## can be produced by oxidizing compound 5 to form a compound represented by the following formula 9: ##STR49## and then eliminating the protecting groups therefrom.
A compound of general formula (I) wherein B is adenine residue (A) and Y is ##STR50## (compound No. 4) can be obtained by eliminating the protecting groups from compound 5.
Further, compound No. 3 can be obtained by eliminating the protecting groups from compound 6, and compounds wherein Y is ##STR51## such as compound No. 5 can be obtained by halogenating compound 2 and then eliminating the protecting groups.
A compound of formula (I) wherein B is adenine residue (A) and R.sub.1 is --CH.sub.2 OCO--(alkyl) can be obtained by acylating a compound of the following formula 3': ##STR52## in the usual manner and then eliminating the protecting group P.sub.1. The protecting group P.sub.1 must be capable of elimination under a condition not affecting the acyl group. A prefereable protecting group P.sub.1 is silyl group, for example.
When B is a residue of other bases such as guanine residue (G), hypoxanthine residue (H), xanthine residue (X) or 2,6-diaminopurine residue, the intended compounds can be obtained similarly by treating the corresponding compounds according to the above-mentioned procedure.
Compounds of formula (I) wherein B is hyposanthine base can be obtained not only by the above-mentioned method but also by a method mentioned below.
Thus, an oxetanocin-A (OXT-A) related compound represented by the following formula (I-b): ##STR53## wherein A is adenine residue and R.sub.1 and Y are as defined above, is treated with adenosine deaminase to form an oxetanocin-H (OXT-H) related compound represented by the following formula (I-c): ##STR54## wherein H is hypoxanthine residue and R.sub.1 and Y are as defined above.
The temperature at which OXT-A is treated with adenosine deaminase is not critical, so far as the enzyme can act. However, it is usually about 10.degree. C. to about 50.degree. C., and preferably about 15.degree. C. to about 40.degree. C.
The solvent used in this reaction is not critical, so far as it does not disturb the action of the enzyme. Usually, however, aqueous solvents such as water and the like are used. Preferably, the reaction is carried out in the neighborhood of neutral pH by the use of a buffer solution.
It is also possible to obtain a compound of formula (I) wherein Y is ##STR55## by reducing the corresponding ketone or azide compound, respectively.
Thus, an oxetanocin-related compound represented by the following formula (I-e): ##STR56## wherein R.sub.1 ' represents --CH.sub.2 OH or --CH.sub.2 O--P.sub.1 (P.sub.1 is protecting group), B represents a residue of purine base of which functional group may optionally be protected, and Y" represents ##STR57## or its salt can be obtained by reducing an oxetanocin-related compound represented by the following formula (I-d): ##STR58## wherein R.sub.1 ' and B are as defined above and Y' represents ##STR59## or its salt in an inert solvent by a catalytic reduction using Pd/black or by a reduction using a boron hydride compound such as alkali metal boron hydride. The inert solvents used in the catalytic reduction are for example water, an acetic acid and a lower alcohol such as methanol or ethanol and that used in the reduction by a boron hydride compound is acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran or a lower alcohol. The reaction temperature may be a conventional temperature. For example, the reaction can be carried out in the temperature range from about 0.degree. C. to the boiling point of the solvent, and preferably from about 5.degree. C. to about 80.degree. C.
The catalytic reduction is usually used, to obtain the compound of ##STR60## from the compound of ##STR61## The reduction using a boron hydride compound is usually used to obtain the compound of ##STR62## ps from the compound of

Among these compounds, those wherein B is adenine base residue (A) or hypoxanthine base residue (H), R.sub.1 is --CH.sub.2 OH, Y is ##STR64## and their salts exhibit an intense activity against HIV virus with a low toxicity such as cytoxicity and the like.
Compounds wherein B is guanine base residue (G) or 2,6-diaminopurine base residue (D), R.sub.1 is --CH.sub.2 OCO--(alkyl) and Y is ##STR65## are preferable, because they exhibit an excellent activity against B hepatitis virus, Cytomegalovirus, Herpes-simplex and the like probably with only a low toxicity and without carcinogenicity.
