Abstract

Abstract A convenient method for the synthesis of 6-selenopurine ribosides by nucleophilic displacement of chloride by sodium hydrogen selenide from the corresponding 6- chloropurine ribosides is described. This method provides a useful improvement in yield while significantly simplifying the literature procedures.
