Two new series of C-nucleosidic ATP mimics have been synthesized using an efficient and versatile synthetic pathway. These compounds were designed as FGFR3 inhibitors using purine as a central scaffold. The two substituents, a polyhydroxylated ribose mimic and a lipophilic moiety, were linked either in position 2 or 6 of the purine ring in order to explore any possible binding mode. All the compounds were able to inhibit FGFR3 kinase activity ...
