Synthesis of (±)-Emtricitabine and (±)-Lamivudine by Chlorotrimethylsilane–Sodium Iodide-Promoted Vorbrüggen Glycosylation

By simple combination of water and sodium iodide (NaI) with chlorotrimethylsilane (TMSCl), promotion of a Vorbrüggen glycosylation en route to essential HIV drugs emtricitabine (FTC) and lamivudine (3TC) is achieved. TMSCl-NaI in wet solvent (0.1 M water) activates a 1,3-oxathiolanyl acetate donor f...
