    Abstract

    A study of C-nucleophilic substitution at the C4-position on pyrimidine and C6-position on 2'-deoxyguanosine to produce novel nucleosides is presented with the spectroscopic properties of their respective substitution products. C4-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) pyrimidine nucleosides 1 were treated with nitroalkanes, malononitrile, acetylacetone, ethyl nitroacetate, acetoacetate and cyanoacetate at 100 degrees C in dioxane in the presence of DBU resulting in the production of novel nucleosides 2-11. To explore the application of this methodology to purine chemistry, this approach was used to produce novel analogs from 2'-deoxyguanosine. We found that the triazolo derivative 12 undergoes C-nucleophilic substitution with nitromethane, malononitrile, acetylacetone, ethyl nitroacetate and cyanoacetate in the presence of potassium carbonate (K2CO3) in DMF at 100 degrees C to give novel nucleosides 13-17.
