title: Synthesis and biological activity of 5-azacytosine nucleosides derived from 4-thio-2-deoxy-L-threo-pentofuranose and 4-thio-2-deoxy-D-erythro-pentofuranose.
abstract: 1-O-Acetyl-2-deoxy-3,5-di-O-toluoyl-4-thio-D-erythro-pentofuranose and 2-deoxy-1,3,5-tri-O-acetyl-4-thio-L-threo-pentofuranose were coupled with 5-azacytosine to obtain alpha and beta anomers of nucleosides.
