Jx. Shi et Rf. Schinazi, Asymmetric synthesis of carbocyclic pyrimidine nucleosides via pi-allylpalladium complex, NUCLEOS NUC, 20(4-7), 2001, pp. 1367-1370
Racemic and enantiomerically pure carbocyclic pyrimidine nucleosides were s
ynthesized efficiently by a convergent approach using Trost nucleophilic ad
dition of pi -allylpalladium complexes.
