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.
