Abstract: | Reaction of 6‐chloropyrimidines with diethyl [(2‐aminoethoxy)methyl]phosphonate allows for a ready access to acyclic nucleoside phosphonates. A series of 5‐substituted pyrimidines bearing a phosphonate side chain at position 6 were synthesized and tested against herpes simplex viruses (HSV‐1 and HSV‐2) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV‐1). Some compounds showed weak antiviral activity against HSV‐1. |
