Abstract

Starting from d-xylose via a 3-deoxy-3α-C-ethynyl-3-fluoro sugar as a key intermediate, a novel fluorinated bicyclic purine nucleoside has been synthesized. A neighboring-group participation pathway and a mechanism involving an intramolecular cycloaddition induced by fluorine are proposed for the formation of the key intermediate and the bicyclic nucleoside, respectively.
