Application

This lactam and its antipode are precursors to the enantiomers of the carbocyclic nucleoside carbovir. It has been demonstrated that (-)-carbovir is a potent inhibitor of HIV-1 and based on clinical trials it could become an alternative to AZT. AZT is a trademark of The Wellcome Foundation Ltd.

Carbocylic 2',3'-didehydro-2',3'-dideoxyguanosine (Carbovir; NSC 614846) is an antiretroviral agent which may be useful in the treatment of AIDS. We have synthesized the 5'-triphosphate of Carbovir and examined its ability to inhibit human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (EC
