A library of 4,6‐linked analogues of the drug tobramycin with various mono‐ or diaminosugars attached to the 6‐position of the two‐ring core has been prepared (see scheme; Bn=benzyl, Tol= p ‐tolyl). The compounds were screened against different disease‐related RNAs, and several of the synthetic analogues showed a high affinity and selectivity toward certain RNA sequences.
