  • Title: A facile synthesis of 4'-thio-arabinonucleosides as potential antiviral agents from D-glucose.

    Journal: Nucleic Acids Symp Ser; 1995; (34):21-2. PubMed ID: 8841532.
    Abstract:
    As potential antiviral agents, 4'-thio-arabinonucleosides were synthesized. Methyl 3-O-benzyl-xylo-furanoside, readily obtained from D-glucose, was converted to 1,4-anhydro-4-deoxy-4-thio-arabinitol. The protection of hydroxyl groups and the Pummerer rearrangement, followed by Lewis acid induced glycosylation afforded 4'-thio-arabinonucleosides. The compounds showed anti HSV-1 activity.
