2,3,5-Tri-O-benzyl-D-ribono-1,4-lactone

2,3,5-Tri-O-benzyl-D-ribono-1,4-lactone is a purine nucleoside analog. 2,3,5-Tri-O-benzyl-D-ribono-1,4-lactone can be synthesized from D-ribose by reacting with methanol under Fischer glycosylation conditions. Purine nucleoside analogs have broad antitumor activity targeting indolent lymphoid malignancies. 2,3,5-Tri-O-benzyl-D-ribono-1,4-lactone exerts anticancer activities through inhibition of DNA synthesis, induction of apoptosis, etc. 2,3,5-Tri-O-benzyl-D-ribono-1,4-lactone can be studied in anticancer research for lymphoid malignancies.
