A series of tricyclic penciclovir (PCV) and hydroxybutylguanine (HBG) derivatives have been prepared with enhanced lipophilicity following an efficient synthetic route. All the novel tricyclic derivatives were evaluated for inhibitory activity against herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2) and thymidine kinase deficient (ACV resistant) HSV-1. The tricyclic HBG derivatives were devoid of inhibitory activity however several of the tricyclic PCV derivatives showed promising antiviral activity, in particular 9g (R = 4-MeO-CH) displayed good inhibitory activity (HSV-1 EC 1.

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) types 1 and 2 thymidine kinases (TK) are responsible for phosphorylation of antiherpes acyclonucleosides such as acyclovir (ACV) and 9-(4-hydroxybutyl)guanine (HBG). Related compounds, the N-phenyl-9-(hydroxyalkyl)guanines, are devoid of direct antiviral activity, but potently inhibit the viral TKs and block viral reactivation from latency . The similarity in structure between the acyclonucleosides and TK inhibitors raised the question of the relevance of phosphorylation of certain of the latter analogs in their mechanisms of action.

Selective alkylation of dyphylline (1) with (2-acetoxyethoxy)methyl bromide (2a) or 4-acetoxybutyl bromide (2b) afforded 3'-O-[(acetoxyethoxy)methyl]dyphylline (3a) and 3'-O-(4-acetoxybutyl)-dyphylline (3b), respectively. A trans esterification process rather than alkylation of the dihydroxy-propyl side chain in 1 had taken place during the reaction with 2-p-toluoyloxy)ethyl chloride (5) to afford the respective 3'-toluoyloxy derivative 7 and not the anticipated 3'-O-[(p-toluoyloxy)ethyl]-dyphylline (6). Deacylation of 3a,b and 7 afforded 4a,b and 1, respectively.

The triphosphates of the antiherpesvirus acyclic guanosine analogs 9-[4-hydroxy-2(hydroxymethyl)butyl] guanine (2HM-HBG), 9-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl)guanine (acyclovir [ACV]), and 9-(3,4-dihydroxybutyl)guanine (buciclovir) were examined for their effects on partially purified varicella-zoster virus (VZV) DNA polymerase as well as cellular DNA polymerase alpha. The triphosphate of 2HM-HBG competitively inhibited the incorporation of dGMP into DNA catalyzed by the VZV DNA polymerase. 2HM-HBG-triphosphate (2HM-HBG-TP) had a higher affinity for the dGTP-binding site on the VZV DNA polymerase than did dGTP; apparent Km and Ki values of dGTP and 2HM-HBG-TP were 0.
