New unnatural sugar nucleotides, UDP-Fuc and CDP-Fuc were synthesized from fucose-beta-1-phosphate and nucleotide monophosphates activated as morpholidates. Furthermore, a nucleotide analogue was prepared by phosphorylation of 1-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)cyan uric acid, itself obtained as a protected derivative by condensation of the persilylated derivative of cyanuric acid with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-ribofuranose in 74% yield. This phosphate activated according to the same procedure was condensed with fucose-beta-1-phosphate, affording a new sugar nucleotide conjugate (NDP-Fuc) which was evaluated together with UDP-Fuc, CDP-Fuc and ADP-Fuc, as facose donors in alpha-(1-->4/3)-fucosyltransferase (FucT-III) catalyzed reaction. Fucose transfer could be observed with each of the donors and kinetic parameters were determined using a fluorescent acceptor substrate. Efficiency of the four analogues towards FucT-III was in the following order: UDP-Fuc = ADP-Fuc > NDP-Fuc > CDP-Fuc.According to the same strategy ADP-GlcNAc was prepared from AMP-morpholidate and N-acetylglucosamine-alpha-1-phosphate; tested as a glucosaminyl donor towards Neisseria meningitidis N-acetylglucosaminyl transferase (LgtA), ADP-GlcNAc was recognized with 0.1% efficiency as compared with UDP-GlcNAc, the natural donor substrate.

which has implications for novel paradigms for reorganizing the structures of nucleic acids, the synthesis of long helicenes, and pre‐RNA world paradigms. The results caution against extrapolating the self‐assembly behavior of individual heterocycles from the level of monomers to oligomers because the base‐paring properties of (non‐)canonical nucleobases are impacted by the type of oligomeric backbone
