Abstract

A series of 3', 5'-diesters of a 2, 2'-anhydro-l-(/3-~-arabinofuranosyl) cytosine salt bearing functional substituents on the ester side chains (4-16) have been synthesized. The synthesis of these diesters involved the reaction between cytidine and the corresponding acid anhydride or acid chloride in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate. Similar reaction of bis (cytidine 5'-) suberate (21) with pivaloyl chloride gave bis [2, 2'-anhydro-l-(3'-O-pivaloyl ...
