The chemistry of L-nucleosides

  • Chapter
Acyclic, Carbocyclic and L-Nucleosides

Abstract

In this chapter the chemical methods for gaining access to L-nucleosides, one of the most exciting and promising new directions of research in the field, will be presented. Aspects of the biological activity of these com- pounds, which differ from the natural series only in the configuration of the stereocentre at the 4-position of the sugar, will be mentioned briefly but dealt with in more detail in the following chapter.
