Abstract:
Compounds having methyl, vinyl, and ethynyl groups at the 4'-position of stavudine (d4T: 2',3'-didehydro-3'-deoxythymidine) were synthesized. The compounds were assayed for their ability to inhibit the replication of HIV in cell culture. The 4'-ethynyl analogue (15) was found to be more potent and less toxic than the parent compound stavudine.
