Introduction of a phenylseleno group to the sugar portion of uracil nucleosides and selenoxide elimination reactions of the resulting selenium-containing derivatives are described.A phenylselenide anion prepared by reducing (PhSe)2 with LiAlH4 was found to be highly reactive.By using this selenide as a nucleophile, ring openings of various types of cyclonucleosides and nucleosides having an anhydro structure in the sugar portion were accomplished.The products, which contain a phenylseleno group in the sugar portion, were oxidized with m-CPBA in CH2Cl2, and their susceptibility to the selenoxide elimination and regiochemistry of the reaction was investigated.
