Azathioprine [Imuran; 6-[(1-methyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazol-5-yl)thio]-1H-purine] is a widely used immunosuppressive and antiarthritic drug. For the sake of comparison, the riboside, the 2'-deoxyriboside, and the arabinoside of azathioprine and its 2-amino congener, thiamiprine, were prepared by an enzymatic method. In vitro, the cytotoxicities
