Stereospecific Synthesis of β-D-Xylofuranosides of Adenine and Guanine

Abstract
A convenient preparation of the 9-ß-D-xylofuranosides of adenine (xylo-A) and guanine (xylo-G) is described. 1,2-Di-O-acetyl-3,5-Di-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-D-xylofuranose is used as the glycosylating agent and a modified procedure for its preparation is given. The method is stereospecific for the ß-anomers.
