Abstract: | Synthesis of a new class of 1, 3-thiazolidine nucleoside analogs is described. Reaction of 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose hydrochloride 2 with carbon disulfide yielded 5-hydroxy-4-(D-arabino-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydroxybutyl)-thiazolidin-2-thione 3, which on acetylation yielded 5-acetoxy-4-(D-arabino-1, 2, 3, 4-tetraacetoxy-butyl)-thiazolidin-2-thione 4. The acetylated sugar 4 reacted with hydrazonoyl chlorides 1a–f, affording the 5-acetoxy-4-(D-arabino-1, 2, 3, 4-tetraacetoxybutyl)-spiro-1 Chen, H., Fan, Y-H., Natarajan, A., Guo, Y., Iyasere, J., Harbinski, F., Luus, L., Christ, W., Aktas, H. and Halperin, J.
