Description

The discovery that threo syl phosphonate nucleoside (PMDTA, EC50 = 2.53 μM) is a potent anti-HIV agent has led to the synthesis and biological evaluation of 5'-deoxy versions of threo syl phosphonate nucleosides. In the present study, (E)-3'-phosphono alkenyl and 3'-phosphono alkyl nucleoside analogues 13, 16, 20 and 23 were synthesized from acetol and tested for anti-HIV activity and cytotoxicity. The adenine analogue 16 was found to exhibit moderate in vitro anti-HIV-1 activity (EC50 = 22.2 μM)
