Synthesis by conjugate radical addition of new heterocyclic amino acids with nucleic acid bases in their side chains
Abstract
N-(2-Iodoethyl) and N-(3-iodopropyl)pyrimidines and purines undergo stereoselective conjugate radical addition with an optically active oxazolidinone acceptor to give syn-adducts that can be converted into pyrimidine and purine amino acids.
