Synthesis of benzodithiol-2-yl-substituted nucleoside derivatives as lead compounds having anti-bovine viral diarrhea virus activity
Nucleoside derivatives having a benzodithiol-2-yl (BDT) group were synthesized and examined for their anti-bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) activities. Other substituents structurally similar to the BDT group such as 1,3-benzodioxol-2-yl, benzimidazol-2
