Interpretation:
The possible mechanism for the formation of heterocyclic base on protected ribosylamine on the reaction with
Concept introduction:
舧 Electrophiles are electron-deficient species, which has positive or partially positive charge. Lewis acids are electrophiles, which accept electron pair.
舧 Nucleophiles are electron-rich species, which has negative or partially negative charge. Lewis bases are nucleophiles, which donate electron pair.
舧 A nucleoside consists of a nucleobase (also termed as nitrogenous base) and a five-carbon sugar (either ribose or deoxyribose).
舧 A
舧 In a nucleoside, the anomeric carbon is linked through a glycosidic bond to the N9 of a purine or N1 of a pyrimidine.
舧 Examples of nucleosides include cytidine, uridine, adenosine, guanosine and thymidine.
舧 Sugar (ribose/deoxyribose) and nitrogenous bases are linked through N-glycosidic bonds.
舧 These glycosidic bonds are formed by condensation reaction of first carbon of sugar molecule with the nitrogen atom
舧 This particular glycosidic bond is stable in basic solutions, but readily hydrolyzes in the presence of acids.
舧 Uridine ribonucleoside can be synthesized by the reaction of protected ribosylamine with

- Show how to synthesize the following compound using either the malonic ester synthesis or the acetoacetic ester synthesis. Q.) Cyclobutyl methyl ketonearrow_forwardThe formation of Br2 from NBS first involves the reaction of NBS with HBr to form an iminol intermediate and molecular bromine. The intermediate then undergoes acid-catalyzed tautomerism to form succinimide, the byproduct of the reaction. Propose a curved-arrow mechanism for the conversion of NBS into succinimide that also accounts for the formation of Br2.arrow_forwardDraw the mechanism of the reaction between toluene and acetyl chloride and aluminum trichloride to give the productarrow_forward
