6-Chloroxanthosine, a Useful Intermediate for the Efficient Syntheses of [6-15N]-Isoguanosine, Isoinosine and Other Purine Nucleoside Analogues

The development of isoguanosine: from discovery, synthesis, and modification to supramolecular structures and potential applications

First systematical review of isoguanosine, an unnatural base, as an isomer of guanosine shows significant differences in diverse properties.

An efficient and facile methodology for bromination of pyrimidine and purine nucleosides with sodium monobromoisocyanurate (SMBI)

An efficient and facile strategy has been developed for bromination of nucleosides using sodium monobromoisocyanurate (SMBI). Our methodology demonstrates bromination at the C-5 position of pyrimidine nucleosides and the C-8 position of purine nucleosides. Unprotected and also several protected nucleosides were brominated in moderate to high yields following this procedure.
