Abstract

A series of 3,9-dihydro-9-oxo-5H-imidazo[1,2-A]purine nucleosides (tricylic nucleosides) were synthesized from 9-[4-α-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopent-2-ene-1-α-yl]guanine (CBV) 5, (−)-β-D-(2R,4R)-1,3-dioxolane-guanosine (DXG) 6, 3′-azido-3′-deoxy-guanosine (AZG) 7, and 2′-C-methylguanosine 8. Their in vitro activity against HIV and HCV was evaluated and correlated to their ability to degrade to their purine counterpart.
