Synthesis and anti-hepatitis B activity of new substituted uracil and thiouracil glycosides

Arch Pharm Res. 2010 Jun;33(6):797-805. doi: 10.1007/s12272-010-0601-y. Epub 2010 Jul 6.

Abstract

A number of N- and S-substituted uracil and thiouracil glycosides were synthesized by coupling reaction of 5,6-dibenzyle pyrimidine derivatives with the corresponding acetobromosugar. The synthesized compounds were tested for their antiviral activity against hepatitis B virus. Plaque reduction infectivity assay was used to determine virus count reduction as a result of treatment with tested compounds which showed moderate to high antiviral activities.
