Abstract

We report on the synthesis of 2-deoxyglycosyl derivatives of uridine as potential donor substrates for glycosyltransferases. The totally stereoselective synthesis is accomplished by two sequential addition reactions of uridine derivatives to glycals promoted by triphenylphosphine-hydrogen bromide.
