As part of an ongoing research program, we have prepared novel bicyclic nucleoside inhibitors bearing long alkyl side-chains for evaluation against VZV. In particular, we report the synthesis of analogues with terminal unsaturation in the side-chain. Terminal alkenyl derivatives were found to be potent antivirals whereas the terminal alkynyls displayed poor activity.

Novel bicyclic nucleoside analogues bearing long alkyl side chains are prepared and tested as inhibitors of VZV. In particular, analogues with terminal unsaturation in the side chain are reported. Whilst terminal alkenyl derivatives are potent antivirals, the corresponding terminal alkynyls are poorly active. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
