2′-Deoxyzeatin riboside, previously isolated together with other three cytokinins from culture filtrates of the pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas amygdali, has been synthesized by reaction of 6-chloro-9-(2-deoxy-β-d-ribofuranosyl)purine with (E)-4-amino-2-methyl-but-2-en-1-ol. The identity of the synthetic and the naturally occurring cytokinin has been established.
