摘要

The synthesis and biological evaluation as antiviral agents of a series of racemic 4-aryl-1,2,3-triazolyl carbanucleosides of type (+/-)-10/(+/-)-11 related to the broad spectrum antiviral agent ribavirin 1 are described. These compounds were produced using a "click chemistry" strategy starting from readily available protected alcohol 13b. The synthetic approach made use of olefin-based organic reactions for the stereoselective construction of the appropriately functionalized cyclopentane ring moiety followed by copper (I) catalyzed Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azides and alkynes for the regioselective construction of the heterocyclic triazole moiety.
