Abstract
Abstract In this article, we describe the synthesis of 5-nitro-1-(2-deoxy-α-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)cytosine (4α), 5-nitro-1-(2-deoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)cytosine (4β), 5-amino-1-(2-deoxy-α-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)cytosine (5α), 5-nitro-1- (2-deoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)cytosine (5β), 5-nitro-1-(2,3-dideoxy-β- D-ribofuranosyl)uracil (6β), 5-amino-1-(2,3-dideoxy-α,β-D-ribofuranosyl)uracil (7), 5-nitro-1-(2,3-dideoxy-α,β-D-ribofuranosyl)cytosine (8) and 5-amino-1-(2,3-dideoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)cytosine (9β). The prepared compounds were tested for their activity against HIV and HBV viruses, but they did not show significant activity.
