It was shown that the isomer in which the carbon atom near C 2(x) is substituted by the nitrogen atom is the most stable one. The nitrogen atom has negative charge and may become a further center for reaction. The bands of the UV spectra of C 75 N + will be red shifted to 700-850 nm compared with those of C 76 . The nature of transition was assigned and the reason of red shift was also rationalized.展开更多
N 1-(2-Fursnidyl)-5-fluorouracil reacted with multimethylenes chlorohydrin in the presence of NaHCO3 in acetonitrile at 80 ℃ to give N 1-(2-furanidyl)-N 3-(hydroxyalkyl)-5-fulorouracils in a high yield (≥93%...N 1-(2-Fursnidyl)-5-fluorouracil reacted with multimethylenes chlorohydrin in the presence of NaHCO3 in acetonitrile at 80 ℃ to give N 1-(2-furanidyl)-N 3-(hydroxyalkyl)-5-fulorouracils in a high yield (≥93%). Their cyclic glycerophospholipid conjugates were synthesized and had a good activity against the man urinary bladder cancer cell in vitro.展开更多
