Abstract

Nucleoside monophosphates, when activated by trifluoroacetic anhydride and N- methylimidazole, efficiently couple with a variety of electron-deficient diphosphonates in a reproducible and efficient manner (< 2 h,> 72% isolated yield). Unlike traditional methods for the preparation of nucleoside 5'-β, γ-methylenetriphosphate analogues, there is no requirement for predrying, or conversion to specific salt forms, of commercially available ...
