title: Efficient synthesis of carbocyclic nucleoside, (+/-)-homocarbovir via pi-allylpalladium complex formation from the allyl-N,N-ditosylimide substrate.
abstract: The synthesis of a carbovir analogue, (+/-)-homocarbovir (3) was achieved from norbornadiene (4) in seven steps and 27% overall yield. This route involves a Meinwald-type rearrangement, an acid-hydrolysis of N-tosyl bicyclic enamine 5, and a Pd(0)-catalyzed coupling reaction.
