A series of representative derivatives of guanosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cGMP) and inosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cIMP) which contained modifications in either the 2' position or the 8 and 2' positions were synthesized. Three types of derivatives were investigated: (1) derivatives in which the 2' position has been altered to produce a 2'-deoxynucleoside cyclic 3',5'-phosphate or a 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosylpurine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate; (2) 2'-omicron-acyl derivatives; and (3) doubly modified derivatives containing a 2' modification [as in (1) and (2)] and an 8-substitution. 2'-Deoxyinosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate and 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosylhypoxanthine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate were obtained by HNO2 deamination of 2'-deoxyadenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate and 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyladenine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (ara-cAMP), respectively. Treatment of 8-bromo-2'-omicron-(p-toluenesulfonyl) adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate with NaSH yielded the intermediate 8,2'-anhydro-9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-8-mercaptoadenine cyclic 3',5-phosphate, which was converted directly to 2'-deoxyadenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (dcAMP) by treatment with Raney nickel. 8-Bromo-2'-omicron-(p-toluenesulfonyl) guanosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate was converted to 8,2'-anhydro-9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-8-mercaptoguanine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate, and the latter was desulfurized with Raney nickel to give 2-deoxyguanosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate. Ara-cAMP, 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosylguanine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate, and 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-8-mercaptoguanine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate have been previously reported (Mian et al. (1974), J. Med. Chem. 17, 259). 8-Bromo-2'-omicron-acetylinosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate and 8-[(p-chlorophenyl)thio]-2'-omicron-acetylinosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate were produced by acylation of 8-bromoinosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate and 8-[(p-chlorophenyl)thio]inosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate, respectively; while 8-bromo-2'-omicron-butyrylguanosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate was synthesized by bromination of 2'-omicron-butyrylguanosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate.
