The reaction of 5-azapyrimidine nucleosides Ia-IXa with zinc powder in acetic acid afforded the respective 5,6-dihydro derivatives Ib-IXb in high yields. This procedure represents a convenient and general method for preparation of the title compounds. The effects of some dihydro-5-azapyrimidine nucleosides on the growth in vitro of L1210 mouse leukemic cells were estimated.
