The reaction of the chloropurine (I) with tetrahydrofuran-2(R)-amine (II) gives N6-(furan-2(R)-yl)adenosine (III), which is treated with 2,2-dimethoxypropane and Ts-OH in hot DMF to yield N6-(furan-2-(R)-yl)-2'O,3'O-isopropylideneadenosine (IV). The reaction of (IV) with CDI and methylamine in THF affords N6-(furan-2-(R)-yl)-2'O,3'O-isopropylidene-5'O-(N-methylcarbamoyl)adenosine (V), which is finally deprotected with HOAc in hot water to provide the target adenosine derivative.
