[Synthesis of nucleoside 5'-fluoroalkylphosphonate--compounds with potential antiviral properties]

Several 5'-fluoroalkylphosphonates of 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine and 3'-deoxy-2',3'-didehydrothymidine were synthesized as potential antiviral compounds. Fluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, fluorochloromethyl and vinyl phosphonates were used as phosphonylating components, with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or triisopropylbenzenesulphonyl chloride as condensing reagents.
