Novel, general, and facile syntheses of 3- and/or 5-substituted 7-β-d-ribofuranosyl-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-i]purines (5-8) via compounds 4 as a new class of potential xanthine oxidase inhibitors are described. The key intermediates 4b-j were prepared by oxidative cyclization of the aldehyde hydrazones 3a-i, derived from 6-hydrazino-2-iodo-9-(2′,3′,5′-tri-O-acetyl-β-d-ribofuranosyl)-9H-purines (2) and an appropriate aldehyde, with diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD) (Method A) or lead tetraacetate (Method B) in good yields. The intermediates 4a-j were also synthesized from heating of 2 with triethyl orthoesters (Method C) or with aldehydes and DEAD in one-pot reactions (Method D).
