A short synthesis of 1-vinyluracil and 1-vinylthymine
Zhou, Jinglan,Shevlin, Philip B.
, p. 3591 - 3597 (1997)
1-Vinyluracil and 1-vinylthymine, monomers for nucleic acid bases attached functional polymers, were synthesized for the first time from uracil and thymine in 3 steps in 54% and 50% overall yields using the Mitsunobu reactions of 2a and 2b with 2-chloroet

We report the discovery of novel uracil-based acyclic compounds as inhibitors of deoxyuridine 5′-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase), an enzyme involved in nucleotide metabolism that has been identified as a promising target for the development of
Synthesis of difluorocyclopropyl carbocyclic homo-nucleosides
Csuk, Rene,Eversmann, Leo
, p. 6445 - 6456 (2007/10/03)
Racemic difluorinated carbocyclic homo-nucleoside analogues are easily accessible from (Z)-4-(benzyloxy)-2-butenyl acetate by difluorocyclopropanation using sodium chlorodifluoro acetate in diglyme at 190°C followed by Mitsunobu reactions.
THE BENZOYLATION OF URACIL AND THYMINE
Cruickshank, Kenneth A.,Jiricny, Josef,Reese, Colin B.
, p. 681 - 684 (2007/10/02)
Uracil and thymine react with benzoyl chloride in acetonitrile-pyridine solution at room temperature to give first their 1-N-benzoyl (2b and 3b) and then their 1-N,3-N-dibenzoyl derivatives (4a and 4b, respectively); the latter compounds are converted into the corresponding 3-N-benzoyl derivatives (5a and 6a) under mild conditions of basic hydrolysis.
