Abstract

In order to study the structure-activity relationships of 2', 3'-dideoxypurine nucleosides as potential anti-HIV agents, various 6-substituted purine analogues have been synthesized and examined in virus-infected and uninfected human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. M-methyl-2', 3'-dideoxyadenosine (D2MeA, 7a) was initially synthesized from adenosine via 2', 3'-0-bisxanthate 3. As extension of this reaction to other N6-substituted compounds ...
