New acyclonucleosides: synthesis and anti-HIV activity

Nucleosides Nucleotides Nucleic Acids. 2005;24(8):1249-63. doi: 10.1081/NCN-200067423.

Abstract

The synthesis of new acyclic nucleosides is described. These syntheses were accomplished by various methods: glycosylation, selective or total deprotection, oxidation/reduction, chlorination or azidation of hydroxyl groups. The compounds were characterized with NMR, mass and IR spectroscopy. Antiviral properties of these compounds were evaluated on HIV-1 infected cell lines.
