Abstract
Active site of reverse transcriptase contains carboxylate groups involved in the magnesium binding. We prepared some nucleoside analogs which could bind to these carboxylates preventing the binding of nucleotides. To the 3′-amino-3′-deoxy-thymidine, different N-protected ω-amino-acids were bound, the protection removed to give the 3′-(ω-amino-acyl-) amino-3′-deoxy-thymidines in good yield. Some showed moderate to low activity in HIV 1 replication test.
