Ten new beta-D-ribofuranosyl and 2'-beta-C-methyl-beta-D-ribofuranosyl triciribine derivatives 4-13 with various N4 and 6-N substituents on the tricyclic ring were synthesized from the corresponding toyocamycin and new 2'-beta-C-methyl toyocamycin derivatives. The inhibitory studies of these compounds in the HCV replicon assay reveal that some of them possess interesting anti-HCV properties with low cytotoxicity.

Role of a "Magic" Methyl: 2'-Deoxy-2'-α-F-2'-β--methyl Pyrimidine Nucleotides Modulate RNA Interference Activity through Synergy with 5'-Phosphate Mimics and Mitigation of Off-Target Effects.

Although 2'-deoxy-2'-α-F-2'-β--methyl (2'-F/Me) uridine nucleoside derivatives are a successful class of antiviral drugs, this modification had not been studied in oligonucleotides. Herein, we demonstrate the facile synthesis of 2'-F/Me-modified pyrimidine phosphoramidites and their subsequent incorporation into oligonucleotides. Despite the C3'- preorganization of the parent nucleoside, a single incorporation into RNA or DNA resulted in significant thermal destabilization of a duplex due to unfavorable enthalpy, likely resulting from steric effects.

Herein we describe the discovery of IDX21437 35b, a novel Rd-aminoacid-based phosphoramidate prodrug of 2'-α-chloro-2'-β-C-methyluridine monophosphate. Its corresponding triphosphate 6 is a potent inhibitor of the HCV NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). Despite showing very weak activity in the in vitro Huh-7 cell based HCV replicon assay, 35b demonstrated high levels of active triphosphate 6 in mouse liver and human hepatocytes.

A novel 2',3'-dideoxy-2'-α-fluoro-2'-β--methyl-6-methoxy guanosine () and its phosphoramidate prodrug () have been designed and synthesized. Their biological activity was evaluated in both cytotoxicity and cell-based HCV replicon assays. Neither compounds exhibited cytotoxicity up to the highest concentration tested (100 μM) in the Huh-7 cell line.

Novel 4 'α-trifluoromethyl-2 'β-methyl carbocyclic nucleoside analogs have been prepared and evaluated for inhibition of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA replication in cell cultures. Construction of cyclopentene intermediate 10a was achieved via sequential Johnson-Claisen orthoester rearrangement and ring-closing metathesis starting from the α-trifluoromethyl-α,β-unsaturated ester 5. Stereoselective dihydroxylation and desilylation yielded the target carbodine analogs.
