title: A direct route to 2-(beta-D-ribofuranosylthio)pyridine glycosides.
abstract: A novel synthesis of a new class of 2-(beta-D-ribofuranosylthio)pyridine glycosides utilizing the reactions of substituted pyridine-2(1H)-thiones and 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-D-ribofuranose as starting components is described.
