Jbj. Pavey et al., THE SYNTHESIS OF 2'-HOMOURIDINE, ITS INCORPORATION INTO A DINUCLEOSIDE MONOPHOSPHATE AND HYDROLYTIC BEHAVIOR OF THE DIMER, Tetrahedron letters, 39(38), 1998, pp. 6967-6970
An efficient route to 2'-homouridine (1), a new nucleoside analogue, i
s reported that is based on an ene reaction. This nucleoside has been
incorporated into a dinucleoside monophosphate and hydrolytic studies
on the dimer show that it does not behave like a ribonucleotide. (C) 1
