摘要

We have employed a tandem Sonogashira/annulation reaction between 5-iodocytosine derivatives and terminal alkynes to yield the fluorescent bicyclic nucleobase pyrrolcytosine. Pyrrolocytosine bearing substituents only on the pyrrole ring are conveniently synthesized from 5-iodocytosine. Water soluble pyrrolocytosines are being investigated as reporter groups in SNP analysis.
