Abstract Glucuronolactones were used as precursors for N-9 and N-7 purine nucleosides containing glucuronic acid derivatives in their structures. Acetylated N-benzylglucofuran- and glucopyranuronamides were synthesized in a few steps from glucofuranurono-6,3-lactone. They were converted into the corresponding furanosyl and pyranosyl uronamide-based nucleosides by N-glycosylation with silylated 2-acetamido-6-chloropurine in the presence of trimethylsilyl triflate. The triacetylated bicyclic lactone was coupled itself with the nucleobase to give bicyclic N-9,N-7 nucleosides. Tri-O-acetylglucopyranurono-6,1-lactone was used for the first time as a glycosyl donor for N-glycosylation, and led to -configured N-9- and N-7-linked purinylglucuronides under reaction conditions similar to those used with the 1-O-acetyl-substituted glycosyl donors. The cholinesterase inhibitory profiles of the synthetic nucleosides bearing glucuronic acid derivatives as glycons were evaluated, and they showed moderate selective acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities (K-i = 14.78-50.53 M). The best inhibition was shown by the furanosyl N-9-linked uronamide-based purine nucleoside.
