Abstract

Pentopyranine B and D, pentopyranosylcytosine nucleosides elaborated by Streptomyces griseochromogenes, have been synthesized from the common intermediate, methyl 4-O-benzoyl-3-deoxy-3-iodo-β-D-xylopyranoside (1). The synthetic products, l-(2,3-dideoxy-β-D-glyceropentopyranosyl)cytosine (18) and l-(3-deoxy-β-D-erythropentopyranosyl)cytosine (7) were identical with the natural products, pentopyranine B and D, respectively.
