AI Article Synopsis

  • Several N,O-nucleosides were successfully created using a method called direct 1,3-dipolar cyclization without any solvent, yielding good results.
  • A high level of cis stereoselectivity (over 98%) was achieved by adjusting the side groups on the nitrone part of the molecules.
  • Many of these N,O-nucleosides have been tested for their ability to kill cells, with some showing promise as potential new drugs to inhibit cell growth.

Article Abstract

Several N,O-nucleosides have been synthesized in good yields by direct 1,3-dipolar cyclization methodology, in the absence of solvent. A remarkable cis stereoselectivity (de 98%) was observed by tuning the substituents on the nitrone moiety. A good number of these N,O-nucleosides have been evaluated for cytotoxic activity against selected cellular lines. Some of the tested compounds have proven to be potential antiproliferative drugs.
