Advances in the enantioselective synthesis of carbocyclic nucleosides
Abstract
Carbocyclic nucleosides are C and C–C formation) and methods that start from preformed 5-membered rings, based mainly on cycloaddition reactions. With respect to the methods of synthesis of 3-, 4- and 6-membered ring carbocyclic nucleosides, a selection of the more relevant enantioselective procedures is presented in a systematic manner.
