A series of bicyclic furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine nucleosides conjugated with N-diisopropylphosphoryl amino acids were synthesized from 2′-deoxy-5-iodouridine. The key step is its cross coupling with the 5-phthalimido-1-pentyne under Sonogashira reaction condition. 5-Endo-dig electrophilic cyclization catalyzed by AgNO3 is used to afford the furo[2,3-d]pyrimidines.
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.
