A purine salt of the formula ##STR1## wherein Y.sub.1 is chloro, bromo, or iodo, and R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, and R.sub.4 are independently selected from alkyl and substituted alkyl is reacted with the compound of the formula Z.sub.1 --X to yield the purine of the formula ##STR2## wherein x is a leaving group, and Z.sub.1 is a protected form of the carbohydrate surrogate Z. Several routes are disclosed for converting this intermediate to the antiviral agent ##STR3##
