A novel application of the Staudinger ligation to access neutral cyclic di-nucleotide analog precursors: Via a divergent method

Abstract

Our efforts to develop a scalable and divergent synthesis of cyclic di-nucleotide analog precursors have resulted in (1) an orthogonally protected di-amino carbohydrate as well as (2) the novel application of the Staudinger ligation to provide medium-sized macrocycles featuring carbamate or urea linkages.
