TY - JOUR A1 - Kazimierczuk, Zygmunt A1 - Stolarski, Ryszard A1 - Shugar, David T1 - Stereospecific synthesis by the sodium salt glycosylation method of halogeno benzimidazole 2'-deoxyribose analogues of the inhibitor of hnRNA synthesis, 5,6-dichloro-1-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)benzimidazole (DRB) T2 - Zeitschrift für Naturforschung, C N2 - The recently developed stereospecific sodium salt glycosylation procedure has been successfully applied to the synthesis of the β-ᴅ-2′-deoxyribofuranosides of benzimidazole, 5,6-dihalogeno benzimidazoles, and some 2-substituted analogues in high yield. The 5,6-dibromo analogue was obtained by bromination of the parent nucleoside. These have all been characterized by spectro­scopic methods, including 1H NMR, which permitted analyses of their solution conformations and comparison with those of the corresponding ribofuranosides. Some biological aspects, including preliminary results on cytotoxicity and antiviral activity, are briefly considered.
