We previously designed 1-(3-C-ethynyl-β-D-ribo-pentofuranosyl)uracil (EUrd) and its cytosine congener (ECyd) as potential multifunctional antitumor nucleoside antimetabolites. They showed potent and broad-spectrum antitumor activity against various human

We describe the preparation of 3′-alkynyluridine 4a and -adenosine 4b and of 3′-alkynyl-2′-deoxyuridine 16a and -adenosine 16b starting from the corresponding nucleosides. The desired stereochemistry of the C-3′ tertiary alcohol was obtained by reaction of an ethynylcerium-lithium reagent on a 3′-ketonucleoside with the hydroxyl group at C-5′ unprotected. The 2′-deoxygenation was performed by a Barton-McCombie reaction under appropriate conditions where the addition of tin hydride to the triple bond was suppressed. Evaluation of the anti-HIV activity of the C-3′ modified nucleosides is reported.
