alkoxy iodination, nitratoiodination and acetatoiodination of uridine

ABSTRACT

Reaction of uridine with iodine and cerium IV ammonium nitrate in both of methanol, ethanol and 2-propanol gave the corresponding 5-iodo-6-alkoxy dihydro uridine, while in the case of use t-butyl alcohol or acetic acid, instead of the previous alcohols, 5-iodo-6-nitrato uridine or 5-iodo-6-acetato dihydro uridine were afforded, respectively
