Abstract

magnified image

Pyrimidine nucleobases can undergo a Michael/aldol tandem reaction triggered by a thiolate. In an intramolecular context, 5′‐deoxy‐2′,3′‐isopropylidene‐5′‐thiouridine affords the reminiscent Baylis‐Hillman adduct after retro‐Michael addition whereas its thymine counterpart is unreactive. In an intermolecular context, the conjugate addition‐aldol reaction occurs only if the C5C6 double bond is activated.
