Synthesis and structure of novel conformationally constrained 1',2'-azetidine-fused bicyclic pyrimidine nucleosides: their incorporation into oligo-DNAs and thermal stability of the heteroduplexes.

[structures: see text] The synthesis of novel 1',2'-aminomethylene bridged (6-aza-2-oxabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane) "azetidine" pyrimidine nucleosides and their transformations to the corresponding phosphoramidite building blocks (20, 39, and 42) for automated solid-phase oligonucleotide synthesis is reported. The novel bicyclonucleoside "azetidine" monomers were synthesized by two different strategies starting from the known sugar intermediate 6-O-benzyl-1,2:3,4-bis-O-isopropylidene-D-psicofuranose. Conformational analysis performed by molecular modeling (ab initio and MD simulations) and NMR showed that the azetidine-fused furanose sugar is locked in a North-East conformation with pseudorotational phase angle (P) in the range of 44.5-53.8 degrees and sugar puckering amplitude (phi(m)) of 29.3-32.6 degrees for the azetidine-modified T, U, C, and 5-Me-C nucleosides. Thermal denaturation studies of azetidine-modified oligo-DNA/RNA heteroduplexes show that the azetidine-fused nucleosides display improved binding affinities when compared to that of previously synthesized North-East sugar constrained oxetane fused analogues.
