Pyrimidine Research Selection Guide: Structural Features, Typical Applications, and a Reagent/Building-Block Classification Navigator (Tables 1–5)

If we think of DNA/RNA as a “chemical book” that encodes the information of life, then the pyrimidine family constitutes half of its “letters”: cytosine (C), thymine (T, in DNA), and uracil (U, in RNA) are all pyrimidine bases. Pyrimidines are therefore intrinsically tied to genetic ...
