Synthesis of 2′,5′-dideoxy-5′-substituted pyrimidine nucleosides via intramolecular glycosylation

Article abstract of DOI:10.1246/cl.1999.361

5′-Azido-5′-deoxy and 5′-arylthio-5′-deoxy pyrimidine nucleosides were synthesized employing intramolecular glycosylation, in which a reaction intermediate was treated in situ with an azide salt or thiol.
