Abstract The synthesis of 2,3′- anhydro-[l- (6′-0 - benzoyl- 2′,5′- dideoxy-β-D-glucofuranosyl)thymine] 10, a versatile starting material for homo-2′, 3′- dideoxynucleosides is described. 10 is transformed to homo-AZT.

Although more and more computer-aided technologies are utilised or demonstrated on well-known monuments or archaeological sites, there is - at least for the professionals working in the field - still some lack of clarity about their application. The main idea of our...

Alkylation of 5-hydroxyuridine or 5-hydroxy-2'-deoxyuridine with various activated alkylating agents in the presence of 1 equiv of NaOH gave a series of new nucleoside analogues which were evaluated for antiviral activity against vaccinia virus, herpes simplex-1 virus, and vesicular stomatitis virus in both primary rabbit kidney cells and human skin fibroblasts. One of these analogues, 5-propynyloxy-2'-deoxyuridine, was a potent inhibitor of herpes simplex virus. Structure-activity considerations suggest that the anti-herpes activity is dependent on the integrity of the acetylene group since substitution of phenyl, p-nitrophenyl, vinyl, carboxamido, or carboxyl for the triple bond led to diminished antiviral activity.
