Abstract

Two series of 1, 3-dioxolanes and 1, 3-oxathiolane nucleosides containing N-9-oxypurine were synthesized as potential antiviral agents. These compounds were prepared by reacting the sugar moieties with iodo-or bromotrimethylsilane, followed by treatment with a mixture of sodium hydride and the desired N-hydroxy purine base. The preparation of these N- hydroxybases was also described. No significant antiviral activity was observed against ...
