5′-Hydrogenphosphonates and 5′-Methylphosphonates of Sugar Modified Pyrimidine Nucleosides as Potential Anti-HIV-1 Agents.1

Abstract
A number of nucleoside 5′-hydrogerphosphonates and nucleoside 5′-methylphosphonates were prepared, to study their ability to inhibit replication of HIV-1. Two compounds, the 5′-hydrogenphosphonate of 3′-azido-3′-deoxythymidine (AZT-HP, IVc) and of 3′-deoxy-3′-fluorothymidine (FLT-HP, IVa), exhibit potent anti-HIV-1 activity with selectivity indices similar to or better than those of their parent nucleosides.
