Synthetic transformations of natural nucleosides and carbocyclic or acyclic analogues require careful choice of methods for introduction/removal of suitable protecting groups. Problems related to chemo-, regio- and stereoselectivity of such transformations, a particularly relevant aspect in nucleoside chemistry, can be adequately solved using a biocatalytic approach. This chapter will illustrate the state of the art in the enzyme-assisted protection/deprotection procedures either in a hydrolytic mode or taking advantage of reactions that can be carried out in organic solvents by suitable lipases.

Abstract

Synthetic transformations of natural nucleosides and carbocyclic or acyclic analogues require careful choice of methods for introduction/removal of suitable protecting groups. Problems related to chemo-, regio- and stereoselectivity of such transformations, a particularly relevant aspect in nucleoside chemistry, can be adequately solved using a biocatalytic approach. This chapter will illustrate the state of the art in the enzyme-assisted protection/deprotection procedures either in a hydrolytic mode or taking advantage of reactions that can be carried out in organic solvents by suitable lipases.
