Résumé
3′-Deoxy-β-L-erythro- (3), 3′-deoxy-β-L-thero- (6), 2′-fluoro- (7) and 2′-azido-2′,3′-dideoxy-β-L-erythro- (10) pentofuranonucleoside derivatives of thymine have been synthesized and their antiviral properties examined. All these derivatives were stereospecifically prepared by glycosylation of thymine with a suitable peracylated 3-deoxy-L-erythro-pentofuranose sugar (1), followed by appropriate chemical modifications. The prepared compounds were tested for their activity against HIV, but they did not show an antiviral effect.
