Abstract: Reacting guanosine with benzoyl chloride gave a mixture containing 2',3',5'-tribenzoyl guanosine. After distillation in vacuum the residual solid was acetylated directly and 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranose(2)was obtained. Being reacted with Me 3SiCN,(2)led to the title compound(1). The method reported here is more convenient and cheaper with a considerably higher yield.

Key words: guanosine, cyano-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranose, synthesis, chloro trimethylsilane
