Several 1-[(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)methyl]-3-carbethoxy-4(1H)quinolones (2a-1) and 1-[(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)methyl]-4(1H) quinolone-3-carboxylic acids (3a-j and 31) were synthesized and 2a-j, 21 and 3a-j, 31 were evaluated against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), employing a one-pot reaction: sitylation of the desired quinolone (BSTFA 1% TMCS) followed by equiniolar amount addition of 1,3-dioxolane, chlorotrimethylsilane and KI, at room temperature. The acyclonucleosides 2a-1 were obtained in 40-77% yields. The esters 2a-j and 21 were subsequently converted into the corresponding hydroxyacids 3 in 40-70% yields. Attempts of hydrolysis of 2k produced only a mixture of degradation products. Antiviral activity of 2 and 3 on HSV-1 virus infection was assessed by the virus yield assay. Except for compounds 2i and 3e, the acyclonucleosides were found to reduce the virus yield by 70-99% at the concentration of 50 mu M, being the acids, in general, more effective inhibitors than their corresponding esters. Compounds 3j and 2d exhibited antiviral activity against HSV-1 virus with EC50 of 0.7 +/- 0.04 and 0.8 +/- 0.09 mu M, respectively. Both compounds were not toxic towards the Vero cell line.
