title: Synthesis and antiviral evaluation of 3'-C-trifluoromethyl nucleoside derivatives bearing adenine as the base.
abstract: 3'-deoxy-3'-C-trifluoromethyl- (3), 2',3'-dideoxy-3'-C-trifluoromethyl- (5) and 2',3'-dideoxy-2',3'-didehydro-3'-C-trifluoromethyladenosine (6) derivatives have been synthesized and their antiviral properties examined. All these derivatives were stereospecifically prepared by glycosylation of adenine with a trifluoromethyl sugar precursor (1), followed by appropriate chemical modifications. The prepared compounds were tested for their activity against HIV, but they did not show an antiviral effect.
