Nucleosides modified at C-5 of the pyrimidine base have become important components of synthetic oligonucleotide probes. An account of how these compounds can be synthesized by way of palladium-mediated reactions is described. 1. Introduction 2. Palladium-Mediated Reactions of Alkenes with Mercurionucleosides 3. C-5 Substituted Nucleosides as Antiviral Agents 4. DNA Probes from Modified Nucleosides 5. Palladium-Mediated Reaction of Disulfides with Mercurionucleosides 6. Conclusion
