A series of non-nucleosides 9-47 were synthesized. Compounds 1-4 were reacted with formic acid (85%) to afford compounds 5-8. Then, the latter compounds were reacted with alkyl halides a-f (2-bromopropane, 2-bromobutane, benzyl bromide, benzyl chloromethyl ether, chloromethyl ethyl ether, phenacyl bromide) in the presence of NaH in dry DMF to give the desired compounds 9-47, which were evaluated for activity against herpes simplex virus type-II (HSV-II).
