The synthesis of phosphonomethoxy derivatives of some acyclic pyridine-C-nucleosides is described. Reaction of the acyclic nucleoside alkoxides with diethyl (tosyloxymethyl)phosphonate (5) led to the protected phosphonate derivatives. After eventual modification of the pyridine moiety, the ethyl protecting groups could be removed by treatment with bromotrimethylsilane. The phosphonates were evaluated against a series of tumor cell lines and a variety of viruses. Compared to the nucleoside analogues, they showed a slightly higher activity.
