Abstract: | Abstract A novel series of pyrimidine nucleoside analogues was synthesized. 2,3-Dideoxy-2,3-anhydro-β-D-lyxofuranose was opened by sodium azide to give the corresponding azido compound, which was reduced by lithium aluminium hydride to lead to 2,3-dideoxy-2,3-epimino-β-D-ribofuranose. Pyrimidine bases were glycosylated with this synthon to give potential antiviral molecules: 1-(2,3-dideoxy-2,3-epimino-β-D-ribofuranosyl)pyrimidines. |
