The synthesis of both 2'-hydroxy-3'-deoxy and 2'-deoxy-3'-hydroxy cyclopentyl nucleoside phosphonates with the natural nucleobases adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine from a single precursor has been performed. The guanine containing analogues showed antiviral activity. Especially the 3'-deoxy congener 23 was active, displaying an EC of 5.35 μM against TK VZV strain and an EC of 8.83 μM against TK VZV strain, besides lacking cytotoxicity. However, the application of phosphonodiamidate prodrug strategy did not lead to a boost in antiviral activity.
