Abstract
2'-Deoxynucleosides and analogues play a vital role in drug development, but their preparation remains a significant challenge. Previous studies have focused on β-2'-deoxynucleosides with the natural β-configuration. In fact, their isomeric α-2'-deoxynucleosides also exhibit diverse bioactivities and even better metabolic stability. Herein, we report that both α- and β-2'-deoxynucleosides can be prepared with high yields and stereoselectivity using a remote directing diphenylphosphinoyl (DPP) group. It is particularly efficient to prepare α-2'-deoxynucleosides with an easily accessible 3,5-di-ODPP donor. Instead of acting as a H-bond acceptor on a 2-(diphenylphosphinoyl)acetyl (DPPA) group in our previous studies for syn-facial O-glycosylation, the phosphine oxide moiety here acts as a remote participating group to enable highly antifacial N-glycosylation. This proposed remote participation mechanism is supported by our first characterization of an important 1,5-briged P-heterobicyclic intermediate via variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy. Interestingly, antiproliferative assays led to a α-2'-deoxynucleoside with IC50 values in the low micromole range against central nervous system tumor cell lines SH-SY5Y and LN229, whereas its β-anomer exhibited no inhibition at 100 μM. Furthermore, the DPP group significantly enhanced the antitumor activities by 10 times.

Abstract
Nucleoside has situated the convergence point in the discovery of novel drugs for decades, and a large number of nucleoside derivatives have been constructed for screening novel pharmacological properties at various experimental platforms. Notably, nearly 20 nucleosides are approved to be used in the clinic treatment of various cancers. Nevertheless, the blossom of synthetic nucleoside analogs in comparison with the scarcity of nucleoside anticancer drugs leads to a question: Is it still worth insisting on the screening of novel anticancer drugs from nucleoside derivatives? Hence, this review attempts to emphasize the importance of nucleoside analogs in the discovery of novel anticancer drugs. Firstly, we introduce the metabolic procedures of nucleoside anticancer drug (such as 5-fluorouracil) and summarize the designing of novel nucleoside anticancer candidates based on clinically used nucleoside anticancer drugs (such as gemcitabine). Furthermore, we collect anticancer properties of some recently synthesized nucleoside analogs, aiming at emphasizing the availability of nucleoside analogs in the discovery of anticancer drugs. Finally, a variety of synthetic strategies including the linkage of sugar moiety with nucleobase scaffold, modifications on the sugar moiety, and variations on the nucleobase structure are collected to exhibit the abundant protocols in the achievement of nucleoside analogs. Taken the above discussions collectively, nucleoside still advantages for the finding of novel anticancer drugs because of the clearly metabolic procedures, successfully clinic applications, and abundantly synthetic routines.

Abstract
Compounds containing triazole have many significant applications in the dye and ink industry, corrosion inhibitors, polymers, and pharmaceutical industries. These compounds possess many antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticancer, antiviral, anti-HIV, antitubercular, and anticancer activities. Several synthetic methods have been reported for reducing time, minimizing synthetic steps, and utilizing less hazardous and toxic solvents and reagents to improve the yield of triazoles and their analogues synthesis. Among the improvement in methods, green approaches towards triazole forming biologically active compounds, especially anticancer compounds, would be very important for pharmaceutical industries as well as global research community. In this article, we have reviewed the last five years of green chemistry approaches on click reaction between alkyl azide and alkynes to install 1,2,3-triazole moiety in natural products and synthetic drug-like molecules, such as in colchicine, flavanone cardanol, bisphosphonates, thiabendazoles, piperazine, prostanoid, flavonoid, quinoxalines, C-azanucleoside, dibenzylamine, and aryl-azotriazole. The cytotoxicity of triazole hybrid analogues was evaluated against a panel of cancer cell lines, including multidrug-resistant cell lines.

Abstract
Readily available hydroxamic acids were leveraged to access challenging nitrones in the presence of H3PO4 as a Brønsted acid catalyst and engaged in an intramolecular (3+2) annulation reaction to make valuable cyclopentane-fused isoxazolidines with high yields and excellent diastereoselectivity. The products were further utilized in a unique base-promoted benzilic amide rearrangement to provide cyclopentane-fused γ-lactams bearing three contiguous stereocenters as a single diastereomer.

Abstract
Nucleoside analogs play a crucial role in the production of high-value antitumor and antimicrobial drugs. Currently, nucleoside analogs are mainly obtained through nucleic acid degradation, chemical synthesis, and biotransformation. However, these methods face several challenges, such as low concentration of the main product, the presence of complex matrices, and the generation of numerous by-products that significantly limit the development of new drugs and their pharmacological studies. Therefore, this work aims to summarize the universal separation methods of nucleoside analogs, including crystallization, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), column chromatography, solvent extraction, and adsorption. The review also explores the application of molecular imprinting techniques (MITs) in enhancing the identification of the separation process. It compares existing studies reported on adsorbents of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for the separation of nucleoside analogs. The development of new methods for selective separation and purification of nucleosides is vital to improving the efficiency and quality of nucleoside production. It enables us to obtain nucleoside products that are essential for the development of antitumor and antiviral drugs. Additionally, these methods possess immense potential in the prevention and control of serious diseases, offering significant economic, social, and scientific benefits to the fields of environment, biomedical research, and clinical therapeutics.

Abstract
Despite the importance of nucleosides and nucleotides for drug discovery, only a few practical methods to prepare tricyclic nucleosides have been reported. Here, we describe a synthetic strategy for late-stage functionalization of nucleosides and nucleotides via chemo- and site-selective acid-promoted intermolecular cyclization. The nucleoside analogs with an additional ring were obtained in moderate-to-high yields, including some antiviral drugs (acyclovir, ganciclovir, and penciclovir) derivatives, endogenous fused ring nucleoside (M1 dG) and its derivatives, and nucleotide derivatives. © 2023 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

Abstract
Nucleosides and their analogs, including those that feature substitution of the canonical N-glycosidic by a C-glycosidic linkage, provide access to potent antiviral, antibacterial, and antitumor drugs. Furthermore, they are key building blocks of m-RNA vaccines and play a crucial role for vaccine therapeutic effectiveness. As the medicinal applications of nucleosides increase in number and importance, there is a growing need for efficiency-enhanced routes of nucleoside synthesis. Cascade biocatalysis, that is, the application of natural or evolved enzymes promoting complex transformations in multiple steps in one pot and without the need of intermediate purification, emerges as a powerful tool to obtain nucleosides from readily available starting materials. Recent efforts in enzyme discovery and protein engineering expand the toolbox of catalysts active toward nucleosides or nucleotides. In this review, we highlight recent applications, and discuss challenges, of cascade biocatalysis for nucleoside synthesis. We focus on C-nucleosides and important analogs of the canonical N-nucleosides.

Abstract
AbstractThe unprecedented DAST-mediated (DAST = diethylaminosulfur trifluoride) deoxygenative fluorination of benzoyl-, TBDPS-, and Bn-protected 1-(β-d-4-thioarabinofuranosyl)uracil at the sugar portion was examined. Three kinds of nucleoside (Ns) products were formed: target thiolane Ns, ring-contracted thietane Ns, and anhydro Ns products. The reaction pathway was determined by the electronic effect of the protecting groups at the sugar and base moieties. The benzoylated uracil starting material gave the 2,2′-anhydronucleoside (anhydro Ns) as a major product, whereas the silylated and benzylated starting materials furnished the corresponding fluorinated products, in which the ring-contracted thietanes predominantly formed. The desired thiolane Ns could be obtained as major product by the addition of a pyridine derivative as an additive. Upon reacting N
3-benzoylated 1-(β-d-4-thioarabinofuranosyl)uracil with DAST in the presence of 2,4,6-collidine, the target 2′-deoxy-2′-β-fluoro-4′-thiouracil nucleoside could be obtained in 72% isolated yield along with the corresponding thietane Ns (7%) and anhydro Ns (3%) (thiolane Ns/thietane Ns/anhydro Ns = 10.3:1.00:0.43), with recovery of the starting material (12%). In this study, the first stereoselective synthesis of the β-anomer of 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-4-thio-β-d-arabino-pentofuranosyl)cytosine (4′-thioFAC) has been developed.

Abstract
The direct oxidation reaction of isoxazolidines plays an important role in organic chemistry, leading to the synthesis of biologically active compounds. In this paper, we report a computational mechanistic study of RuO4-catalyzed oxidation of differently N-substituted isoxazolidines 1a–c. Attention was focused on the endo/exo oxidation selectivity. For all the investigated compounds, the exo attack is preferred to the endo one, showing exo percentages growing in parallel with the stability order of transient carbocations found along the reaction pathway. The study has been supported by experimental data that nicely confirm the modeling results.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a disease that remains refractory to existing treatments including the nucleoside analogue gemcitabine. In the current study we demonstrate that an organometallic nucleoside analogue, the ferronucleoside 1-(S,Rp), is cytotoxic in a panel of PDAC cell lines including gemcitabine-resistant MIAPaCa2, with IC50 values comparable to cisplatin. Biochemical studies show that the mechanism of action is inhibition of DNA replication, S-phase cell cycle arrest and stalling of DNA-replication forks, which were directly observed at single molecule resolution by DNA-fibre fluorography. In agreement with this, transcriptional changes following treatment with 1-(S,Rp) include activation of three of the four genes (HUS1, RAD1, RAD17) of the 9-1-1 check point complex clamp and two of the three genes (MRE11, NBN) that form the MRN complex as well as activation of multiple downstream targets. Furthermore, there was evidence of phosphorylation of checkpoint kinases 1 and 2 as well as RPA1 and gamma H2AX, all of which are considered biochemical markers of replication stress. Studies in p53-deficient cell lines showed activation of CDKN1A (p21) and GADD45A by 1-(S,Rp) was at least partially independent of p53. In conclusion, because of its potency and activity in gemcitabine-resistant cells, 1-(S,Rp) is a promising candidate molecule for development of new treatments for PDAC.

Abstract
The development of structurally novel nucleoside analogues is an active area in medicinal chemistry, since these drugs have proven clinical efficacy for decades. Azanucleosides are nucleoside analogues in which the sugar moieties are composed of nitrogen-containing rings or chains. In recent years, many azanucleosides have demonstrated therapeutic potential. In this short review, we describe recent advancements in azanucleosides, which may translate in a better understanding of the molecular design, biological activity, structure-activity relationship, and their related mechanism of action. The information summarized in this paper should encourage medicinal chemists in their future efforts to create more potent and effective chemotherapeutic agents.

Abstract
Hydrazones have been employed as the starting materials in a KOH-mediated one-pot three-component cycloaddition with readily accessible nitroso compounds and olefins to construct various isoxazolidines. Compared with diazo compounds as starting materials, this methodology could afford a wider range of products in good to excellent yields and diastereoselectivities for most substrates, and hydrazones are cheaper, more accessible, and safer substrates. The experimental study shows that the choice of suitable hydrazones is crucial.

Abstract
Biocatalysis, using enzymes for organic synthesis, has emerged as powerful tool for the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The first industrial biocatalytic processes launched in the first half of the last century exploited whole-cell microorganisms where the specific enzyme at work was not known. In the meantime, novel molecular biology methods, such as efficient gene sequencing and synthesis, triggered breakthroughs in directed evolution for the rapid development of process-stable enzymes with broad substrate scope and good selectivities tailored for specific substrates. To date, enzymes are employed to enable shorter, more efficient, and more sustainable alternative routes toward (established) small molecule APIs, and are additionally used to perform standard reactions in API synthesis more efficiently. Herein, large-scale synthetic routes containing biocatalytic key steps toward >130 APIs of approved drugs and drug candidates are compared with the corresponding chemical protocols (if available) regarding the steps, reaction conditions, and scale. The review is structured according to the functional group formed in the reaction.

Abstract
Sugar-modified nucleosides have gained considerable attention in the scientific community, either for use as molecular probes or as therapeutic agents. When the methylene group of the ribose ring is replaced with a sulfur atom at the 3’-position, these compounds have proved to be structurally potent nucleoside analogues, and the best example is BCH-189. The majority of methods traditionally involves the chemical modification of nucleoside structures. It requires the creation of artificial sugars, which is accompanied by coupling nucleobases via N-glycosylation. However, over the last three decades, efforts were made for the synthesis of 1,3-oxathiolane nucleosides by selective N-glycosylation of carbohydrate precursors at C-1, and this approach has emerged as a strong alternative that allows simple modification. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview on the reported methods in the literature to access 1,3-oxathiolane nucleosides. The first focus of this review is the construction of the 1,3-oxathiolane ring from different starting materials. The second focus involves the coupling of the 1,3-oxathiolane ring with different nucleobases in a way that only one isomer is produced in a stereoselective manner via N-glycosylation. An emphasis has been placed on the C–N-glycosidic bond constructed during the formation of the nucleoside analogue. The third focus is on the separation of enantiomers of 1,3-oxathiolane nucleosides via resolution methods. The chemical as well as enzymatic procedures are reviewed and segregated in this review for effective synthesis of 1,3-oxathiolane nucleoside analogues.

Abstract
We have created a novel series of mushroom tyrosinase inhibitors with 1,2,4-triazole as fundamental skeleton. The target compound 1,2,4-triazol-3-ylthio)-N-phenyl acetamide derivatives 9(a-l) were synthesized by the reaction of 4- and 5-substituted 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol derivatives 6(a-c) with 2-chloro-N-sub/un-substituted phenyl acetamide derivatives 8(a-d) under basic condition. By using the analytical techniques for instance, FTIR, LC-MS, 1H NMR and 13C NMR, the structural verification was evaluated. The novel series of the target compounds 9(a-l) has been scanned for biological activity (mushroom tyrosinase inhibition potential) which demonstrates adequate results. Interestingly, compound 9k (IC50 = 0.0048 ± 0.0016 µM) exhibits 3500 times more activity compared with standard drug kojic acid (IC50 = 16.8320 ± 1.1600 µM) against mushroom tyrosinase inhibitor. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity experiment was carried out for the highly effective target compounds (9d, 9i, 9j and 9k) by using MTT assay method for A375 human melanoma cells to define the nontoxic performance of the most effective compounds ranging from 1 to 25 µM. Furthermore, the molecular docking study delivers the thought concerning the interface of the ligand with an enzyme. Also, the dynamic simulation was accomplished for compound 9k to govern the plausible binding model.

Abstract
Secondary metabolites isolated from bioactive extracts of natural sources iteratively pioneer the research in drug discovery. Modern medicine is often inspired by bioactive natural products or the bio-functional motifs embedded in them. One of such consequential bio-functional motifs is the thiolane unit. Thiolane-based bioactive organic compounds have manifested a plethora of astonishing biological activities such as anti-viral, anti-cancer, anti-platelet, α-glucosidase inhibition, anti-HIV, immunosuppressive and anti-microbial activities which renders them excellent candidates in drug discovery. Hence, to scale up the accessibility of thiolane-based therapeutics its chemical syntheses is essential and in addition; a sneak peek in its biosynthesis would give a perspective for developing biomimetic syntheses. This review highlights the development of important thiolane-based therapeutics such as (i) Nuphar sesquiterpene thioalkaloids (ii) Thiosugar sulphonium salts from Salacia sp. (iii) Albomycins (iv) Thiolane-based therapeutics from Allium sp. (v) 4'-thionucleosides summarizing various synthetic strategies, biosynthesis and biological activity studies, covering literature till 2021. We anticipate that this review will inspire chemists and biochemists to take up the challenges encountered in the synthesis and development of thiolane-based therapeutics.

Abstract
In the context of a PRMT5 inhibitor program, we describe our efforts to develop a flexible and robust strategy to access tetrahydrofuro[3,4-b]furan nucleoside analogues. Ultimately, it was found that a Wolfe type carboetherification from an alkenol derived from d-glucofuranose diacetonide was capable of furnishing the B-ring and installing the desired heteroaryl group in a single step. Using this approach, key intermediate 1.3-A was delivered on a gram scale in a 62% yield and 9.1:1 dr in favor of the desired S-isomer. After deprotection of 1.3-A, a late-stage glycosylation was performed under Mitsunobu conditions to install the pyrrolopyrimidine base. This provided serviceable yields of nucleoside analogues in the range of 31-48% yield. Compound 1.1-C was profiled in biochemical and cellular assays and was demonstrated to be a potent and cellularly active PRMT5 inhibitor, with a PRMT5-MEP50 biochemical IC50 of 0.8 nM, a MCF-7 target engagement EC50 of 3 nM, and a Z138 cell proliferation EC50 of 15 nM. This work sets the stage for the development of new inhibitors of PRMT5 and novel nucleoside chemical matter for alternate drug discovery programs.

Abstract
A general DBU-mediated one-pot three-component cycloaddition reaction of easily accessible malonic acid derivatives, nitrosoarenes, and alkenes has been successfully established with the aid of NBS to provide direct access to highly functionalized isoxazolidine derivatives with generally good to excellent yields, broad functional group tolerance, and excellent regio- and diastereo-selectivities under mild conditions. The mechanism study shows that the NBS-mediated formation of bromomalonic acid derivatives from malonic acid derivatives and DBU-promoted synthesis of nitrone intermediates via the reaction of bromomalonic acid derivatives with nitrosoarenes are key steps.

Abstract
Nucleoside analogues represent an important class of drug candidates. With the aim of searching for novel bioactive nucleosides, we developed an efficient synthetic way to construct a series of aryl 1,2,3-triazole acyclic C-azanucleosides via Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. The aryl 1,2,3-triazole motifs within these azanucleosides showed coplanar features, suggesting they could act as surrogates for large planar aromatic systems or nucleobases. Moreover, several aryltriazole acyclic C-azanucleosides bearing long alkyl chains exhibited potent antiproliferative activity against various cancer cell lines via induction of apoptosis. Most interestingly, the lead compound significantly down-regulated the key proteins involved in the heat shock response pathway, representing the first anticancer acyclic azanucleoside with such a mode of action. These novel aryl 1,2,3-triazole cyclic C-azanucleosides therefore serve as promising paradigms for further exploring anticancer drug candidates.

Abstract
d-myo-Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) are Ca2+ channels activated by the intracellular messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3, 1). The glyconucleotide adenophostin A (AdA, 2) is a potent agonist of IP3Rs. A recent synthesis of d-chiro-inositol adenophostin (InsAdA, 5) employed suitably protected chiral building blocks and replaced the d-glucose core by d-chiro-inositol. An alternative approach to fully chiral material is now reported using intrinsic sugar chirality to avoid early isomer resolution, involving the coupling of a protected and activated racemic myo-inositol derivative to a d-ribose derivative. Diastereoisomer separation was achieved after trans-isopropylidene group removal and the absolute ribose-inositol conjugate stereochemistry assigned with reference to the earlier synthesis. Optimization of stannylene-mediated regiospecific benzylation was explored using the model 1,2-O-isopropylidene-3,6-di-O-benzyl-myo-inositol and conditions successfully transferred to one conjugate diastereoisomer with 3:1 selectivity. However, only roughly 1:1 regiospecificity was achieved on the required diastereoisomer. The conjugate regioisomers of benzyl derivatives 39 and 40 were successfully separated and 39 was transformed subsequently to InsAdA after amination, pan-phosphorylation, and deprotection. InsAdA from this synthetic route bound with greater affinity than AdA to IP3R1 and was more potent in releasing Ca2+ from intracellular stores through IP3Rs. It is the most potent full agonist of IP3R1 known and .equipotent with material from the fully chiral synthetic route.

Abstract
The synthesis of stable and potentially bioactive xylofuranosyl nucleoside analogues and potential sugar diphosphate or nucleotide mimetics comprising a 1,2,3-triazole moiety is reported. 3'-O-Methyl-branched N-benzyltriazole isonucleosides were accessed in 5-7 steps and 42-54 % overall yields using a Cu(I)-catalyzed cycloaddition of 3-O-propargyl-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-xylofuranose with benzyl azide as key step. Related isonucleotides were obtained by 5-O-phosphorylation of acetonide-protected 3-O-propargyl xylofuranose and further "click" cycloaddition or by Staudinger-phosphite reaction of a 5-azido N-benzyltriazole isonucleoside. Hydroxy-, amino- or bromomethyl triazole 5'-isonucleosides were synthesized by thermal cycloaddition of 5-azido 3-O-benzyl/dodecyl xylofuranoses with propargyl alcohol, propargylamine or propargyl bromide. Better yields (82-85 %) were obtained when using propargyl alcohol and a high 1,4-regioselectivity was attained with propargyl bromide. Further O/N-phosphorylation or Arbuzov reaction led to (triazolyl)methyl phosphates, phosphoramidates or phosphonates. The latter were converted into uracil nucleoside 5'-(triazolyl)methyl phosphonates as prospective nucleoside diphosphate mimetics.

Abstract
Synthesis of novel homoazanucleosides and their peptidyl analogs as hybrid molecules comprised of amino acids, an iminosugar and natural nucleobases is reported for the first time. A pluripotent amino-substituted chiral polyhydroxypyrrolidine, possessing orthogonally different functional groups on either arm of the pyrrolidine ring, served as an ideal substrate for the synthesis of the proposed peptidyl homoazanucleosides. The acid sensitive primary benzyloxy group, on one arm of the pyrrolidine ring, after selective deprotection, was utilized for the introduction of nucleobases to obtain the homoazanucleosides. The amino group on the other side offered the opportunity to be coupled with amino acids to deliver the desired peptidyl homoazanucleosides. Glycosidase inhibition studies revealed that the acetamido derivatives of homoazanucleosides were found to be sub-millimolar inhibitors of β-N-acetyl-glucosaminidase.

Abstract
A novel transformation from rhamnose-type C-glycosides to 2-cyclopentenones is described. With the promotion of fluoroboric acid, C-glycosides underwent ring opening and subsequent Nazarov cyclization to afford 2-cyclopentenones in good to excellent yields. The solvent and the concentration of acid are crucial to the yield of this transformation.

economical synthesis of lamivudine was developed by employing
a new method to establish the stereochemistry about the heterocyclic
oxathiolane ring. Toward this end, an inexpensive and readily accessible
lactic acid derivative served the dual purpose of activating the carbohydrate’s
anomeric center for N-glycosylation and transferring stereochemical
information to the substrate simultaneously. Both enantiomers of the
lactic acid derivative are available, and either β-enantiomer
in this challenging class of 2′-deoxynucleoside active pharmaceutical
ingredients can be formed.

Effect of Regiochemistry and Methylation on the Anticancer Activity of a Ferrocene-Containing Organometallic Nucleoside Analogue. Chembiochem 2020; 21:2487-2494.

Abstract
Four new bis-substituted ferrocene derivatives containing either a hydroxyalkyl or methoxyalkyl group and either a thyminyl or methylthyminyl group have been synthesised and characterised by a range of spectroscopic and analytical techniques. They were included in a structure-activity-relationship (SAR) study probing anticancer activities in osteosarcoma (bone cancer) cell lines and were compared with a known lead compound, 1-(S,Rp ), a nucleoside analogue that is highly toxic to cancer cells. Biological studies using the MTT assay revealed that a regioisomer of ferronucleoside 1-(S,Rp ), which only differs from the lead compound in being substituted on two cyclopentadienyl rings rather than one, was over 20 times less cytotoxic. On the other hand, methylated derivatives of 1-(S,Rp ) showed comparable cytotoxicities to the lead compound. Overall these studies indicate that a mechanism of action for 1-(S,Rp ) cannot proceed through alcohol phosphorylation and that its geometry and size, rather than any particular functional group, are crucial factors in explaining its high anticancer activity.

Abstract
Herein, we report the synthetic strategies and characterization of some novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole homonucleoside analogs that are relevant to potential antitumor and cytotoxic activities. The structure of all compounds is confirmed using various spectroscopic methods such as 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, HRMS, and FTIR. These compounds were evaluated against three human cancer cell lines (MCF-7, SKBR3, and HL60 Cell Line). Preliminary investigations showed that the cytotoxic activity was markedly dependent on the nucleobase. Introduction of 5-Iodouracil 4g and theobromine 6b proved to be extremely beneficial even they were more potent than the reference drug (DOX). Also, the synthesized compounds were tested for their antiviral activities against the human varicella-zoster virus (VZV). The product 4h was (6-azauracil derivative) more potent to the reference (acyclovir) against the deficient TK - VZV strain by about 2-fold. Finally, molecular docking suggested that the anticancer activities of compounds 6b and 4g mediated by inhibiting dual proteins EGFR/HER2 with low micromolar inhibition constant Ki range. The 1,3,4-oxadiazole homonucleosides showed a strong affinity to binding sites of target proteins by forming H-bond, carbon-hydrogen bond, Pi-anion, Pi-sulfur, Pi-sigma, alkyl, and Pi-alkyl interactions.

Abstract
Nucleoside analogues have proven to be highly successful chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of a wide variety of cancers. Several such compounds, including gemcitabine and cytarabine, are the go-to option in first-line treatments. However, these materials do have limitations and the development of next generation compounds remains a topic of significant interest and necessity. Herein, we discuss recent advances in the chemical synthesis and biological evaluation of nucleoside analogues as potential anticancer agents. Focus is paid to 4'-heteroatom substitution of the furanose oxygen, 2'-, 3'-, 4'- and 5'-position ring modifications and the development of new prodrug strategies for these materials.

Abstract
Heterocyclic compounds represent a significant target for anti-cancer research and drug discovery, due to their structural and chemical diversity. Oxazoles, with oxygen and nitrogen atoms present in the core structure, enable various types of interactions with different enzymes and receptors, favoring the discovery of new drugs. Aim of this review is to describe the most recent reports on the use of oxazole-based compounds in anticancer research, with reference to the newly discovered iso/oxazole-based drugs, to their synthesis and to the evaluation of the most biologically active derivatives. The corresponding dehydrogenated derivatives, i.e. iso/oxazolines and iso/oxazolidines, are also reported.
