Abstract

An efficient method for the synthesis of 7-deazaneplanocin A (2) has been accomplished by the condensation of cyclopentenol 3 with 6-chloro-7-deazapurine followed by subsequent functional group manipulations. The synthesized 7-deazaneplanocin A (2) exhibited potent Antiviral activity against cowpox and vaccinia viruses without cytotoxicity in HFF cells.
