Abstract
The reaction of 5′‐UMP (1) with methyl, ethyl, n‐propyl, and isopropyl iodide under strongly alkaline conditions gave predominantly ribose‐alkylated derivatives 2–11. The structures of the products have been assigned by using UV spectroscopy, paper electrophoresis, ^1^H‐NMR spectroscopy and fast‐atom bombardment mass spectrometry in the negative ion mode.
