Abstract
The synthesis of 9-(2,3-dideoxy-2-fluoro-L-glycero-pent-2-eno- furanosyl)adenine and-hypoxanthine has been accomplished by direct condensation of silylated 6-chloropurine with key intermediates 8, which were prepared starting from 2,3-0-isopropylidene-L-glyceraldehyde. The synthesized nucleosides were evaluated against HIV-1 in vitro in primary human lymphocytes (PMB cells). It was found that β-L-Fd4A 12 exhibited moderately potent anti-HIV activity (EC50 1.5 μM).
