Abstract
An efficient synthesis of the highly potent anti-HIV carbocyclic nucleosides (-)-carbovir and (-)-abacavir has been accomplished from d-(-)-ribose using a rhodium(I)-catalysed tandem hydrosilylation-intramolecular aldol strategy to access a key intermediate.
Key words
asymmetric synthesis - carbocyclic nucleosides - aldol reaction - hydrosilylation - rhodium
