PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF 9-('-D-ARABINOFURANOSYL) ADENINE, 5'-PHOSPHATE

摘要

Process for the production of an ester product, 9-(.beta.-D-arabinofuranosyl)adenine, 5'-phosphate, in which the mixture resulting from reaction of 9-(.beta.-D-arabino-furanosyl)adenine with phosphorylating agent in trialkyl phosphate solvent is subjected to aqueous hydrolysis, the pH of the hydrolysis mixture is adjusted upward sufficiently to cause separation into aqueous and non-aqueous liquid phases, the trialkyl phosphate solvent is removed, and the product is precipitated from the residual aqueous mixture and isolated.
