Halogen substitution at various positions of canonical nucleosides has generated a number of bioactive structural variants. Herein, the synthesis of two unique series of sugar modified nucleosides bearing a gem-dichloro group is presented. The synthetic plan entails the controlled addition of phosphorus pentachloride to suitably protected 2′- or 3′-ketodeoxynucleoside intermediates as the key step, facilitating the rapid construction of such functionalized molecules. Under the same reaction conditions, the highest chemoselectivity was observed for the formation of 2′,2′-dichloro-2′,3′-dideoxynucleosides, while a competing 2′,3′-elimination process occurred in the case of the 3′,3′-dichloro counterparts.

In this report we present a novel, simple way for the synthesis of 3'-C-phosphonate derivatives of all four basic 2'-deoxynucleosides in both fully protected and deprotected forms. The reactivity of the geminal hydroxy phosphonate moiety located at the 3'

The NMR spectrum of 3′-azido-3′-deoxythymidine (AZT) in aqueous solution provides sum of some of the proton-proton coupling constants. This limitation precludes the determination of the pseudorotational parameters of the sugar ring. Selective deuteration alleviates this problem. The synthesis of 2′-deutero and 3′-deutero- AZT have been described for the first time starting from D-xylose and β-thymidine respectively. NMR study of these analogues in aqueous solutions shows that almost equal amount of C-2′-endo and C-3′-endo species exist in equilibrium.
