title: One-pot synthesis of an AZT boranophosphate conjugated with tyrosine: a potential prodrug candidate.
abstract: A one-pot synthesis of P-tyrosinyl(P-O)-5'-P-AZT boranophosphate 7 via a phosphoramidite method is described. The P-boranophosphate diastereomers were separated by RP-HPLC, and their structures were confirmed by NMR and MS.
