Abstract

Potential oral prodrugs of the antiherpesvirus acyclonucleoside 9-[4-hydroxy-3- (hydroxymethyl) but- 1-yllguanine (1, BRL 39123) have been synthesized and evaluated for bioavailability of 1 in the blood of mice. Reduction of 9-[4-acetoxy-3-(acetoxymethyl) but-l-yl]- 2-amino-6-chloropurine (13) using ammonium formate and 10% palladium on carbon afforded the 2-aminopurine 14, which was hydrolyzed to the monoacetate 15 and to 2- ...
