Abstract: A desired isomer is selectively prepared by phosphorolyzing and isomerizing an anomer mixture of a 1-phosphorylated saccharide derivative while crystallizing one of the isomers to displace the equilibrium. Furthermore, using the action of a nucleoside phosphorylase, a nucleoside is prepared from the 1-phosphorylated saccharide derivative obtained and a base with improved stereoselectivity and a higher yield. This process is an anomer-selective process for preparing a 1-phosphorylated saccharide derivative and a nucleoside.

Abstract: An alkoxybenzamide represented by the general formula (3): (wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 independently indicate a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having one to six carbon atoms, or an alkoxy group having one to six carbon atoms; if R3 indicates a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having one to six carbon atoms, R1 indicates an alkoxy group having one to six carbon atoms and R4 indicates an alkyl or alkoxy group having one to six carbon atoms; two adjacent substituents may be coupled with a cross-linking group to form a ring; R6 indicates a heteroaromatic ring; and A indicates an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom) is produced by reacting an alkoxybenzene represented by the general formula (1): (wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 are defined above) with an isocyanate represented by the general formula (2): (wherein R6 and A are defined above; and n indicates 1 or 2) in the presence of a Lewis acid.
