Beta-anomers of 4'-thionucleosides have been synthesized stereoselectively, through PhSeCl- or N-iodosuccimide (NIS)-initiated electrophilic glycosidation to 3,5-O-(di-t-butylsilylene)-4-thiofuranoid glycal (1). This synthetic method has been applied to the synthesis of those analogues branched at the anomeric position using 1-C-carbon-substituted 3,5-O-(tetraisopropyldisiloxane-1,3-diyl)-4-thiofuranoid glycals (11-14) prepared based on lithiation of 10.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007202	Indicators and Reagents	Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.
