Sodium benzyloxide prepared from sodium hydride (120 mg, 5 mmol) and benzyl alcohol (5 mL) was allowed to react with 3 (1 mmol) in benzyl alcohol (5 mL) and the mixture was worked up as described above. The product was crystallized from ether. 5-(1,1-Dibenzyloxyperfluorobutyl)uracil (8a).

A mixture of glycerol (5 mL) and metallic sodium (0.115g, 5 mmol) was stirred at 23 oC until evolution of hydrogen ceased and then treated with a solution of 3a (0.33g, 1 mmol). The mixture was heated to 150 oC for 8 h, concentrated by distillation of glycerol on a Kugelrohr, and the residue was dissolved in water (6 mL). The solution was neutralized with hydrochloric acid (1 M) and concentrated on a rotary evaporator to 4 mL. The resultant precipitate of 9 was filtered and crystallized from EtOH: yield 0.195g (51%); mp 273-274 oC; 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) d 3.50 (m, 2H), 3.80 (m, 1H), 4.24 (m, 2H), 5.01(bs, exchangeable with D2O, 1H), 7.56(dd, JH-F = 29 Hz, JH-F = 6 Hz, 1H) 11.20 (bs, exchangeable with D2O, 2H); 19F NMR (DMSO-d6) d 38.2 (2F), 44.3 (2F), 82.2 (3F); ); FAB- MS (thioglycerol) m/z 383 (100, M+ + 1), 308 (60).
