Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jm00168a020

A series of four 2'-azido-2',3'-dideoxypyrimidine nucleosides were synthesized and their activity against human immunodeficiency virus was explored. 2,2'-Anhydro-5-O-benzoyluridine (6a) was prepared from 5-O-benzoyluridine (5a) and converted into 3'-deoxy
