The nucleophilic addition properties of carbon dioxide radical anion (CO2*-) towards N1-substituted thymine derivatives in aqueous solution is studied for comparison with their one-electron reducing reactivity. N2O-Saturated aqueous solutions of 1-methylthymine, 1,3-dimethylthymine, and thymidylyl(3'-->5')-thymidine containing excess formate ions were gamma-irradiated
