Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium avium infections cause the two most important mycobacterioses, leading to increased mortality in patients with AIDS. Various 5-substituted 2′-deoxyuridines, uridines, 2′-O-methyluridine, 2′-ribofluoro-2′-deoxyuridines, 3′-substituted-2′,3′-dideoxy uridines, 2′,3′- dideoxyuridines, and 2′,3′-didehydro-2′,3′- dideoxyuridines were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro inhibitory activity against M. bovis and M. avium. 5-(C-1 Substituted)-2′- deoxyuridine derivatives emerged as potent inhibitors of M. avium (MIC 90 = 1-5 μg/mL range). The nature of C-5 substituents in the 2′-deoxyuridine series appeared to be a determinant of anti-mycobacterial activity. This new class of inhibitors could serve as useful compounds for the design and study of new anti-tuberculosis agents.

Briefly described, embodiments of the present disclosure include novel fluorescent nucleoside analogs (fNAs) including a fluorescent nucleobase, selected from a purine and a pyrimidine base or analog thereof, and a modified sugar moiety that differs in structure from a sugar moiety of a naturally occurring nucleoside. In embodiments, the fNAs of the present disclosure are analogues of NA prodrugs used to treat viral disorders. Embodiments of the present disclosure also include methods of making the novel fNAs of the present disclosure.
