Procedure

In methanol (50 ml) is dissolved 2',3',5'-tri-O-acetyl-N4 -benzoylcytidine (0.53 g) followed by addition of concentrated NH4OH (5 ml) with stirring at 70° C. The mixture is stirred at 70° C. for 2.5 hours, at the end of which time ethanol is added. The mixture is allowed to stand at room temperature overnight to give colorless needles of cytidine. Yield 0.26 g (95.6%).
