An efficient route for the synthesis of benzimidazole nucleosides 1–8 from readily available D-glucose via 3,5-dihydroxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-ribofuranose and 3-azido-3-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-xylofuranose intermediates has been adopted. Ribofuranosyl nucleosides 1–4 with different benzimidazole bases, and 3?-deoxy-3?-azido-ribofuranosyl nucleosides 5–8, as another series, were obtained. All these newly synthesized analogs were evaluated for anticancer activity using MDA-MB-231 cell line. Among the differently substituted derivatives, 3?-azide substituted nucleosides (5–8) are more potent compared to ribofuranosyl analogs 1–4. The C-3?-azido analog 8 having anthryl group at 2-position of nucleobase show almost similar potency as that of standard etoposide.
