    Abstract

    In the recent few years, the emergence of nucleosides containing modified sugar ring or modified base moiety has gained much attention due to their enhanced biological activities as compared to parent nucleosides containing 5-carbon ribose or deoxyribose sugar ring. In this review, we highlight the recent advances in synthesis and biological activities of nucleosides containing modified sugar rings reported between years 2010 to 2015.
