Abstract
ANA975, a 5-amino-3-beta -D-ribofuranosyl-3H-thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-2-one derivative, was synthesized in the search of an oral prodrug of isatoribine, a small molecule toll-like receptor 7 (TLR-7) agonist. Several strategies were studied to enable the kilogram-scale synthesis of ANA975. Three general total syntheses are described. In the phase I clinical study of ANA975 against hepatitis C virus (HCV), conversion to isatoribine in plasma was rapid and effective, delivering levels of isatoribine that have been shown to be clinically relevant.Entities:
