(D)- and (L)-cyclohexeneyl-G were synthesized enantioselectively starting from (R)-carvone. Both show potent and selective anti-herpesvirus activity (HSV-1, HSV-2, VZV, CMV). Molecular modeling demonstrates that both isomers are bound in the active site o

Enantioselective synthesis of a new family of unsaturated six-membered carbocyclic nucleosides using (R)-(-)-carvone as starting material is described. Introduction of the base moiety via Mitsunobu reaction proceeded regio- and stereoselectively and with good chemical yield, while the Pd-coupling approach failed. 1H NMR study and molecular modeling show the adenine compound exists in an equilibrium of 3H2 and 2H3 conformers (ratio 7:3) in favor of the 3′-endo half-chair conformation, with the base oriented in a pseudoaxial position. This conformational preference can be explained by the π→σ*C1′-N1 interaction involving the antibonding orbital of the C1′-N bond.

An enantioselective approach towards the synthesis of optically pure cyclohexene nucleosides 3 has been developed starting from (R)-carvone. The key steps are the regio- and stereoselective hydroboration of an exo double bond, the selective reduction of a
