| pubmed-article:18088134 | pubmed:abstractText | The first synthesis of 4'-selenonucleosides was achieved using a Pummerer-type condensation as a key step. All stereoelectronic effects shown in 4'-oxonucleosides were overwhelmed by the size of selenium and steric interactions, driving the conformation to the C2'-endo/ C3'-exo twist (Southern) conformation. | lld:pubmed |
