Abstract

1,1-Difluoro-2-(tetrahydro-3-furanyl)ethylphosphonic acids cis-3 and trans-3 possessing a N9-purinylmethyl functionality at the ring were synthesized and tested as "multi-substrate analogue" inhibitors for purine nucleoside phosphorylases. Radical cyclization of allyic alpha,alpha-difluorophosphonate (E)-7 was applied to construct the alpha,alpha-difluorophosphonate-functionalized tetrahydrofuranyl moiety. The IC50 values of cis-3 and trans-3 for human erythrocyte PNP-catalyzed phosphorylation of inosine were determined to be 88 and 320 nM, respectively. The stereochemistry of the inhibitors was found to affect significantly the inhibitory potency.
