[structure: see text] We describe a series of nonpolar nucleoside analogues having similar shapes and gradually increasing size. The structure of the nucleobase thymine was mimicked with toluene derivatives, replacing O2/O4 with hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. Glycosidic bonds

A thorough study for the synthesis of 1-deazauridine is described. 3-Bromo-2,6-dimethoxy-5-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)pyridine, a synthetic precursor for 1-deazauridine, was prepared in seven steps from 2,6-dimethoxypyridine and d-ribose via the ribonolactone approach. Subsequent demethylation was unsuccessful but led to presumable anomerization and isomerization.

A new approach to understanding transition-state structure is presented which involves the sequential application of experimental and computational methods. A family of experimentally determined kinetic isotope effects is fit simultaneously in a vibrational analysis to provide a geometric model of
