Synthesis and Anti-HIV Activity of Alkyl Steroidal 3′-Azido-3′-deoxythymidin-5′-yl Phosphotriesters as Prodrugs of AZT
摘要:
Alkyl steroidal AZT 5'-monophosphate triesters are designed as lipophilic prodrugs of AZT to improve its therapeutic efficiency. We have synthesized four phosphotriesters of AZT, in one-pot, using phosphoramidite-phosphite triester methodology. This method afforded the desired prodrugs in high yields under mild conditions. The in vitro evaluation of anti-HIV activity of these prodrugs is also reported.
