Several carbocyclic nucleoside analogs possessing a 6‐substituted purine linked to a mesylated muco‐inositol were synthesized. The coupling of triethylamine‐activated 6‐chloropurine with 2,3‐anhydro‐l,5,6‐tri‐O‐(methanesulfonyl)‐epi‐inositol gave a 6‐chloro purinyl muco‐inositol amenable to further synthetic transformations in the heterocyclic moiety by substitution of the chlorine atom by nitrogen nucleophiles such as methylamino, diethylamino, benzylamino, hydrazino, morpholino, hydroxylamino, piperidino, and glycyl groups.
