Abstract
1,2,3-triazole is an important building block in organic chemistry. It is now well known as a bioisostere for various functions, such as the amide or the ester bond, positioning it as a key pharmacophore in medicinal chemistry and it has found applications in various fields including life sciences. Attention was first focused on the synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazole molecules however 1,4,5-trisubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles have now emerged as valuable molecules due to the possibility to expand the structural modularity. In the last decade, methods mainly derived from the copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction have been developed to access halo-triazole compounds and have been applied to nucleosides, carbohydrates, peptides and proteins. In addition, late-stage modification of halo-triazole derivatives by metal-mediated cross-coupling or halo-exchange reactions offer the possibility to access highly functionalized molecules that can be used as tools for chemical biology. This review summarizes the synthesis, the functionalization, and the applications of 1,4,5-trisubstituted halo-1,2,3-triazoles in biologically relevant molecules.

Abstract
With the ever-increasing scope of organocuprates, a well-established Gilman reagent has been considered as an unprecedented synthetic tool in modern organic chemistry. The broad research profile of the Gilman reagent (R2CuLi in THF or Et2O) is owing to its propensity to carry out three kinds of reactions, i.e., epoxide ring opening reactions, 1,4-conjugate addition reactions, and SN2 reactions in a regioselective manner. This review examines the applications of Gilman reagent in the total synthesis of both abundant and scarce natural products of remarkable synthetic pharmaceutical profile reported since 2011. The presented insights will be of a vital roadmap to general organic synthesis and it will contribute to the development of new natural products and their analogues in future drug discovery.

Abstract
We describe an efficient and stereoselective synthesis of 1'-substituted-β-carbocylic nucleosides 5 via gem-dichlorooxirane intermediate 7, which directly condensed with weak nucleophiles such as pyrimidines or purines. The formation of gem-dichlorooxirane 7 and direct nucleobase condensation exclusively proceeded in protic polar solvents like MeOH. This method provides a general and modular route for the late-stage diversification of 1'-modified nucleosides.

Abstract
(Re)emerging RNA viruses have been major threats to public health in the past years, and from the few drugs available, nucleoside analogues are still at the cornerstone of the antiviral therapy. Among them, the synthesis of carbocyclic C-nucleosides is suffering from long syntheses and poor yields. Herein we report a concise stereoselective synthesis of rare carbocyclic C-nucleosides (11a-l) bearing non-canonical nucleobases through a cobalt-assisted-route as key step starting from the optically pure (-)-cyclopentenone 1. This approach paves the route for novel carbocyclic C-nucleoside discovery.

Abstract
We report a general method to effect all-carbon (3 + 2) cycloadditions that can elaborate cyclopentenes from a range of olefins. The required dithioallyl cation reagents can be generated in a newly developed mild protocol starting from 2-allyloxypyridine precursors, thus avoiding the use of strong Brønsted acids. The novel method significantly expands the substrate scope, which now also includes acid-sensitive olefins, and thus enables the preparation of previously inaccessible spiro-fused scaffold types from simple and readily available starting materials.

Abstract
The nucleotidase ISN1 is a potential therapeutic target of the purine salvage pathway of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. We identified PfISN1 ligands by in silico screening of a small library of nucleos(t)ide analogues and by thermal shift assays. Starting from a racemic cyclopentyl carbocyclic phosphonate scaffold, we explored the diversity on the nucleobase moiety and also proposed a convenient synthetic pathway to access the pure enantiomers of our initial hit (compound (±)-2). 2,6-Disubstituted purine containing derivatives such as compounds 1, (±)-7e and β-L-(+)-2 showed the most potent inhibition of the parasite in vitro, with low micromolar IC50 values. These results are remarkable considering the anionic nature of nucleotide analogues, which are known to lack activity in cell culture experiments due to their scarce capacity to cross cell membranes. For the first time, we report the antimalarial activity of a carbocyclic methylphosphonate nucleoside with an L-like configuration.

Abstract
Analogues of the canonical nucleosides have a longstanding presence and proven capability within medicinal chemistry and drug discovery research. The synthesis reported herein successfully replaces furanose oxygen with CF2 and CHF in pyrimidine nucleosides, granting access to an alternative pharmacophore space. Key diastereoselective conjugate addition and fluorination methodologies are developed from chiral pool materials, establishing a robust gram-scale synthesis of 6'-(R)-monofluoro- and 6'-gem-difluorouridines. Vital intermediate stereochemistries are confirmed using X-ray crystallography and NMR analysis, providing an indicative conformational preference for these fluorinated carbanucleosides. Utilising these 6'-fluorocarbauridine scaffolds enables synthesis of related cytidine, ProTide and 2'-deoxy analogues alongside a preliminary exploration of their biological capabilities in cancer cell viability assays. This synthetic blueprint offers potential to explore fluorocarbanucleoside scaffolds, indicatively towards triphosphate analogues and as building blocks for oligonucleotide synthesis.

Abstract
Access to carbocyclic C-nucleosides (CC-Ns) is currently restricted. The few methods available to make CC-Ns suffer from long syntheses and poor modularity, hindering the examination of potentially important chemical space. Here we report an approach to CC-Ns which uses an asymmetric Suzuki-Miyaura type reaction as the key C-C bond forming step. After coupling the densely functionalized racemic bicyclic allyl chloride and heterocyclic boronic acids, the trisubstituted cyclopentenyl core is elaborated to RNA analogues via a hydroborylation-homologation-oxidation sequence. We demonstrate that the approach can be used to produce a variety of enantiomerically enriched CC-Ns, including a carbocyclic derivative of Showdomycin.

Abstract
Two new families of enantiomerically pure carbocyclic nucleoside analogues based on a cyclohexane moiety with five chiral centers and a fused cyclopropyl ring have been synthesized. A highly regio- and stereoselective synthetic approach for the modular construction of the functionalized bicyclo[4.1.0]heptyl azide intermediate 6 has been established. Key steps to achieve this asymmetric synthesis involved highly diastereoselective allylic oxidation and hydroboration reactions. The first family of compounds, 1a,b and 2, presents different natural nucleobases, whereas the second one 3a-e bears functionalized 1,2,3-triazoles. These derivatives have been tested as antiviral agents, and compound 3d has shown to display moderate activity against coxsackie B4 virus.

Abstract
The formation of highly substituted cyclopentenols was developed using a Claisen-Sakurai reaction. Both elements of the reaction can be performed in a one-pot sequence that provides the corresponding cyclized products in high stereoselectivity. The stereochemical outcome is defined by a combination of Claisen stereospecificity and stereoelectronic effects in the Sakurai cyclization that promotes reactivity via an anti-SE' antiperiplanar transition state. This was determined by examination of the product stereochemistry and through detailed DFT analysis.
