First synthesis of 1-deazacytidine, the C-nucleoside analogue of cytidine

The synthesis of 1-deazacytidine, the C-nucleoside analogue of cytidine, is described. It involves coupling of a protected 2-amino-5-bromopyridine with perbenzylated ribonolactone and transformation of the pyridine ring into the desired substituted pyridone. This synthesis completes the family of C-...

Summary:The synthesis of 1-deazacytidine, the C-nucleoside analogue of cytidine, is described. It involves coupling of a protected 2-amino-5-bromopyridine with perbenzylated ribonolactone and transformation of the pyridine ring into the desired substituted pyridone. This synthesis completes the family of C-nucleosidic analogues of natural nucleosides. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
