Synthesis and In Vitro Activity of 4′ and 5′-Modified Analogues of Apiosyl Nucleosides as Potent Anti-HCV Agents
摘要:
Novel doubly branched apio dideoxynucleosides were synthesized starting from 1,3-dihydroxyacetone using an ozonolysis and Grignard addition as key steps, and evaluated for anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) activity. The adenine derivative 24 showed significant anti-HCV activity, indicating that the branches at the 4',5'-position of the apiosyl ring led to favorable interaction with HCV polymerase.
