A comprehensive survey of established and experimental methods in nucleoside synthesis

This volume presents a comprehensive review of nucleoside synthesis with a uniquely broad perspective. It describes the three principal types of nucleoside-forming reactions–the fusion reaction, the metal salt procedure, and the Hilbert-Johnson reaction–as well as a number of other methods, and presents a broad overview of alternative chemical methods for synthesis.

This comprehensive discussion includes a survey of experimental protocols for nucleoside synthesis,...
