Presentation Abstract or Description
Nucleoside analogs are a valuable source of potential antiviral drugs. For example, the nucleoside AZT is a well-known drug used to treat HIV infections and molnupiravir is approved to treat SARS-CoV-2 infections. Simple acyclic nucleoside analogs like ganciclovir have also been employed in the clinic as antivirals. We report here the synthesis of a novel class of acyclic hydrazide-based nucleoside mimics which will be evaluated for possible antiviral activity.
