Starting with 5‐iodo N,O‐nucleosides, prepared by 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones with vinyliodouracil, or vinyl acetate followed by coupling with silylated iodouracil, a series of 5‐alkynyl N,O‐nucleosides were synthesized via a palladium‐catalyzed (Sonogashira) coupling reaction. The cytotoxic activity of modified nucleosides against HEp‐2 cell lines was determined in vitro. The 5‐ethynyl N,O‐nucleoside, the only compound in the series containing a terminal acetylene unit, was found to be the most active compound.
