□ Since the discovery of 3′-azido-3′-deoxythymidine (AZT) and 2′,3′-didehydro-2prime;,3′-dideoxythymidine (d4T) as potent and selective inhibitors of the replication of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), there has been a growing interest for the synthesis of 2′,3′-didehydro-2′,3′-dideoxynucleosides with electron withdrawing groups on the sugar moiety. Here we described an efficient method for the synthesis of such nucleoside analogs bearing structural features of both AZT and d4T. The hey intermediate, 3-azido-1,2-bis-O-acetyl-5-O-benzoyl-3- deoxy-D-ribofuranose, 5 was synthesized from commercially available D-xylose in five steps, from which a series of pyrimidine and purine nucleosides were synthesized in high yields. The resultant protected nucleosides were converted to target nucleosides using appropriate chemical modifications. The final nucleosides were evaluated as potential anti-HIV agents.

1-(2,3-anhydro-β-D-lyxofuranosyl)cytosine derivatives as potential inhibitors of the human immunodeficiency virus

We report here that 1-(2,3-anhydro-β-D-lyxofuranosyl)cytosine has activity against the human immunodeficiency virus in vitro. A number of 2',3'-anhydro-β-D-lyxofuranosyl nucleoside derivatives were prepared, but none had the activity of the title compound. New efficient procedures were developed for the synthesis of 3'-deoxy-3'-alkyl- and 3'-deoxy-β-D-arabinosylpyrimidine derivatives.
