title: Synthesis and antiviral activities of N-9-oxypurine 1,3-dioxolane and 1,3-oxathiolane nucleosides.
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 HIV, HBV, HSV-1, HSV-2, or HCMV.
