The selective N-4 alkylation of cytosine plays a critical role in the synthesis of biologically active molecules. This work focuses on the development of practical reaction conditions toward a regioselective synthesis of N-4-alkyl cytosine derivatives. The sequence includes a direct and selective sulfonylation at the N-1 site of the cytosine, followed by the alkylation of the amino siteusing KHMDS in CH2Cl2/THF mixture, providing a fast and efficient approach consistent withpyrimidine-based drug design.

Abstract

The selective N-4 alkylation of cytosine plays a critical role in the synthesis of biologically active molecules. This work focuses on the development of practical reaction conditions toward a regioselective synthesis of N-4-alkyl cytosine derivatives. The sequence includes a direct and selective sulfonylation at the N-1 site of the cytosine, followed by the alkylation of the amino siteusing KHMDS in CH2Cl2/THF mixture, providing a fast and efficient approach consistent withpyrimidine-based drug design.
