Synthesis and Biological Activity of 2- and 6-C-Substituted Purine Bases, Nucleosides and Acyclic Nucleotide Analogues (Bader Award Lecture)

Abstrakt

An overview of the author's recent achievements in the synthesis 2- and 6-C-substituted purines. Diverse approaches consisting mainly in heterocyclization, nucleophilic substitution and cross-coupling reactions were applied to the preparation of the title purines which were further transformed to target nucleosides and nucleotide analogues. Biological activity of the analogues is discussed.
