title: Synthesis of carbocyclic nucleosides bearing a cyclopropane ring.
abstract: A carbocyclic cyclopropane fused nucleoside, 9-(c-4-hydroxymethylbicyclo[3.1.0]hex-r-2-yl)-9H-adenine, has been efficiently synthesized from 2-azabicyclo-[2.2.1]hex-5-en-3-one (ABH) in 6 steps, namely cyclopropanation, -reductive amide cleavage (RAC) reaction and adenine ring construction.
