Some new acyclic nucleotide analogues as antiviral prodrugs: Synthesis and bioactivities in vitro

A series of ester analogues of acyclic nucleotide PMPA and PMEA were synthesized as potent antiviral agents. The antiviral evaluation results indicated that bis benzyl ester prodrug of PMPA 5f and bis allyl ester prodrug of PMEA 5g exhibited potent antiviral activities. The IC50 of 5f for HBV was 2.15 μM, and the IC50 of 5g for HIV-1 was 1.61 μM.

A series of new acyclic nucleotide analogues were synthesized and tested for in vitro antiviral activity against HIV/HBV. Most of tested compounds exhibited potent antiviral activity.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
