Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative pathogen of Chagas disease and the main culprit for cardiac-related mortality in Latin-America triggered by an infective agent. Incapable of synthesizing purines de novo, this parasite depends on acquisition and processing of host-derived purines, making purine (nucleoside) analogues a potential source of antitrypanosomal agents. In this respect, hitherto 7-deazaadenosine
