preparing a compound represented by the following formula 1 by reacting the compound of formula 11 with TFA (step 9):
The retrosynthetic analysis of MLN4924 (1), as the final desired nucleoside, is shown in the following.
MLN
 4924 (1) can be synthesized by condensing cyclic sulfate 3 as the 
glycosyl donor with a purine base. The glycosyl donor 3 can be produced 
from diol 4, which in turn can be obtained from cyclopentanone 5 via a 
stereoselective reduction and a regioselective cleavage of the 
isopropylidene moiety. The cyclopentanone 5 can be synthesized from 
cyclopentenone 6 by stereoselective reduction. The intermediate 
cyclopentenone 6 can be easily derived from D-ribose according to our 
previously published procedure (Jeong, L. S. et al., J. Org. Chem. 2004,
 69, 2634-2636).
The synthetic route for the glycosyl donor 3 is shown in the following scheme 1.

 8: Preparation of sulfamic acid 
2-tert-butoxy-4-[4-(indan-1-ylamino)-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-yl]-cyclopentylmethyl
 ester (Compound 11)
Preparation
 of 2.0 M solution of chlorosulfonamide in acetonitrile: Formic acid 
(14.15 ml, 166.0 mmol) was added dropwise to chlorosulfonyl isocyanate 
(32.0 ml, 162.5 mmol) under nitrogen atmosphere at 0° C. When the 
addition was completed, the mixture was solidified. To the mixture was 
added acetonitrile (61.3 ml), and the resulting solution was left to 
stand under nitrogen source at room temperature overnight.
To
 a solution of the compound 10 (5.63 g, 13.83 mmol) and triethyl amine 
(9.7 ml, 0.74 mmol) in acetonitrile (278 ml) was added 2.0 M solution of
 chlorosulfonamide in acetonitrile (13.83 ml, 27.76 mmol) at 0° C., and 
the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 45 minutes. 
Additional 2.0 M chlorosulfonamide solution in acetonitrile (13.83 ml, 
27.76 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature 
for 15 minutes. The reaction was quenched with methanol, and the solvent
 was removed. The residue was purified by silica gel column 
chromatography (methylene chloride/methanol=20/1) to give the compound 
11 (6.37 g, 92%) as a white foam.

A
 practical synthesis of a novel NEDD8-activating enzyme (NAE) inhibitor 
pevonedistat (MLN4924) is described. Key steps include an 
enantioselective synthesis of an amino-diol cyclopentane intermediate 
containing three chiral centers and a novel, regioselective 
sulfamoylation using N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-N-[(triethylenediammonium)sulfonyl]azanide.
 The linear process, involving six solid isolations, has been carried 
out in multiple cGMP productions on 15–30 kg scale to produce 
pevonedistat in 98% (a/a) chemical purity and 25% overall yield.

MLN4924 (1), which is in clinical trials as an anticancer agent, was stereoselectively synthesized from d-ribose
 via a route involving stereoselective reduction, regioselective 
cleavage of an isopropylidene moiety, and selective displacement of a 
cyclic sulfate moiety as key steps.
