Article Abstract
Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of N-heterocyclic glycosides free of protecting and directing groups is reported. The key reaction is highlighted by the atom-efficient and regioselective addition of unprotected pyrimidines to highly functionalized alkoxyallene. Numerous acyclic and cyclic N-heterocyclic glycosides are accessed with minimal formation of organic byproducts. The synthetic utility of the reaction is demonstrated by the first catalytic asymmetric synthesis of anticancer pharmaceutical (-)-Tegafur and stereoselective synthesis of an oxepane nucleoside derivative.

BRCA1 deficiency is observed in approximately 25% of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). BRCA1, a key player of homologous recombination repair, is also involved in stalled DNA replication fork protection and repair. Here, we investigated the sensitivity of BRCA1-deficient TNBC models to the frequently used replication chain terminator gemcitabine, which does not directly induce DNA breaks.

Article Synopsis
- * A 37-year-old male with HIV had over 400 skin lesions resembling those of Mpox, which improved with symptomatic treatment.
- * Eight months later, he developed papular anetoderma in previously affected areas, confirmed by biopsy to show loss of elastic fibers, indicating it was caused by Mpox.
Protection-Free, Two-step Synthesis of C5-C Functionalized Pyrimidine Nucleosides.

A simple, reliable, and efficient method for the gram-scale chemical synthesis of pyrimidine nucleosides functionalized with C5-carboxyl, nitrile, ester, amide, or amidine, starting from unprotected uridine and cytidine, is described. The protocol involves the synthesis of 5-trifluoromethyluridine and 5-trifluoromethylcytidine with Langlois reagent (CF SO Na) in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide and subsequent transformation of the CF group to the C5-C 'carbon substituents' under alkaline conditions. © 2024 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

Recent advances in single-atom insertion reactions have opened up new synthetic approaches for molecular diversification. Developing innovative strategies to directly transform biologically relevant molecules, without any prefunctionalization, is key to further expanding the scope and utility of such transformations. Herein, the direct access to quinazolines and pyrimidines from the corresponding unprotected 1-indoles and 1-pyrroles is reported, relying on the implementation of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (LiHMDS) as a novel nitrogen atom source in combination with commercially available hypervalent iodine reagents.

The synthesis and base pairing properties of platinum complexes based on uridine and deoxyuridine nucleosides and preliminary studies of their antiproliferative activity are described. Platinum(II) uridine and deoxyuridine complexes were synthesized by C-I oxidative addition to Pt(0)(PPh). First, the synthesis was performed with protected nucleosides to generate complexes and , which were deprotected under basic conditions, affording complexes and in good yields.
