Abstract: Disclosed are methods for the dealkylation of phosphonate esters by use of trimethylchlorosilane as the dealkylating agent. In particular, this invention is directed to the discovery that high yields for the dealkylation of phosphonate esters can be achieved within relatively short reaction times by the use of trimethylchlorosilane provided that the dealkylation procedure occurs in a sealed vessel containing a compatible solvent.

Abstract: The invention provides a composition comprising bis(POC)PMPA and fumaric acid (1:1). The composition is useful as an intermediate for the preparation of antiviral compounds, or is useful for administration to patients for antiviral therapy or prophylaxis. The composition is particularly useful when administered orally. The invention also provides methods to make PMPA and intermediates in PMPA synthesis. Embodiments include lithium t-butoxide, 9-(2-hydroxypropyl) adenine and diethyl p-toluenesulfonylmethoxyphosphonate in an organic solvent such as DMF. The reaction results in diethyl PMPA preparations containing an improved by-product profile compared to diethyl PMPA made by prior methods.
