Page/Page column 80-81, (2010/02/12)
Processes for the preparation of racemic and optically active nucleoside analogs of formula (A) are described. These compounds are useful as anti-infective agents, antisense therapeutic agents and hybridization assay probes.

Nucleoside analogues containing a 2-deoxy-1,5-anhydro-D-mannitol and a pyrimidine base moiety were synthesized starting from D-glucose via a nucleophilic opening of an epoxide with the heterocyclic base and an inversion of configuration at the 3'-position. Study of the conformation of these molecules, that show some activity against herpesviruses (HSV, VZV, CMV) should increase our understanding of the structural requirements of hexitol nucleosides for antiviral activity.
