way. -Different 3,5-diazido-3,5-dideoxy and 2,3,5-trideoxyfuranoses, (VI), (XII), and (XVIII) both with xylo-and ribo-configurations, are prepared by different approaches thus overcoming the drawbacks of known procedures such as lacking the availability of cheap starting materials, adequate yields, and access to all possible diastereomers. The new methods applied offer new possibilities for the synthesis of still unknown artificial nucleosides and chiral metal complexes. -(KOTH, D.; FIEDLER, A.; SCHOLZ, S.; GOTTSCHALDT*, M.; J.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
