E. Rozners et E. Bizdena, BUILDING-BLOCKS FOR SYNTHESIS OF OLIGOARABINONUCLEOTIDES - PREPARATION OF ARABINONUCLEOSIDE H-PHOSPHONATES FROM PROTECTED RIBONUCLEOSIDES, Nucleosides & nucleotides, 14(9-10), 1995, pp. 2009-2025
A straightforward and inexpensive synthesis of arabinonucleoside H-pho
sphonates has been developed. Arabinonucleosides were synthesised from
protected ribonucleosides via 2'-keto derivatives. Reaction condition
s have been optimised for compounds bearing labile N-protections. Furt
her protecting group manipulation and phosphonylation gave the require
d H-phosphonate monomers.
