New antiviral therapy study results from Wayne State University described
July 27th, 2009
According to a study from the United States, "Chiral Z- and E-stereoisomers of (1,2-dihydroxyethyl)methylenecyclopropane analogues of 2'-deoxyadenosine and 2'-deoxyguanosine were. synthesized, and their antiviral activity was investigated. (S)-Methylenecyclo-propylcarbinol (16) was converted in seven steps to reagents 26 and 27, which were used for alkylation-elimination of adenine and 2-amino-6-chloropurine to get ultimately analogues 12a, 12b, 13a, 13b, 14a, 14b, 15a, and 15b. The enantiomeric series ent-12a, ent-12b, ent-13a, ent-13b, ent-14a, ent-14b, ent-15a, and ent-15b was obtained by similar procedures starting from (R)-methylenecyclopropylcarbinol (ent-16)." ...
