Abstract
A series of pro-nucleotide phosphoramidates and phosphorodiamidates of the antiviral lead compound 3′-deoxy-3′-fluorothymidine (FLT) have been designed and synthesized. In vitro antiretroviral and cytostatic studies revealed potent (sub-micromolar) inhibition of HIV-1 and HIV-2 replication, with retention of activity in thymidine kinase-negative cell models, as predicted by the ProTide concept.
