Abstract
The photochemical behavior of 2-azidopurine 2',3',5'-tri-O-acetylribonucleoside has been investigated in aqueous solution under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The two major processes under anaerobic irradiation of 2-azidopurine 2',3',5'-tri-O-acetylribonucleoside involve unprecedented transformation into 1-(5'-O-acetyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-5-[(2-oxo-1,3,5-oxadiazocan-4-ylidene)amino]-1H-imidazole-4-carbaldehyde and photoreduction to respective 2-aminopurine derivative, whereas under aerobic conditions these two processes occur to a much lesser extent and photooxidation to respective 2-nitropurine derivative dominates. The structures of photoproducts formed were confirmed by NMR and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectral data.
