title: Design and SAR study of a novel class of nucleotide analogues as potent anti-HCMV agents.
abstract: We have developed a novel class of 2-phosphonate 1,3-dioxolane nucleotide analogues, from which the guanine derivative displayed weak anti-HCMV activity. Further SAR studies led to the identification of both cis and trans guanine derivatives of tetrahydrofuran analogues as potent anti-HCMV agents, both in vitro and in vivo, compared to ganciclovir and HPMPC.
