Novel bisphosphonate alkylating agent, tetraisopropyl {2-[(mesyloxy)methyl]propane-1,3-diyl}bis(oxymethylene)bisphosphonate 19, was synthesized from diethyl 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)malonate. Decarbethoxylation of the diethyl 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-5,5-dicarboxylate was followed by chloromethylation of 2-[(benzyloxy)methyl]propane-1,3-diol and Arbuzov reaction with triisopropyl phosphite. Bisphosphonate building block 19 was used in the alkylation of various nucleobases (2-amino-6-chloropurine, adenine, 2-amino-6-(cyclopropyl)aminopurine, cytosine, uracil and 4-methoxy-5-methylpyrimidin-2(1H)-one). N9-Substituted purines and N1-substituted pyrimidines were converted to appropriate free bisphosphonic acids. No antiviral or cytostatic activity was detected.

We report here a general method for the synthesis of new symmetrical bis-phosphonates of acyclic nucleosides. 1,3-Bis[(diisopropoxyphosphoryl)methoxy] derivatives of purine and pyrimidine bases were prepared by their reaction with 1,3-bis[(diisopropoxyphosphoryl)-methoxy]propan-2-yl tosylate. Cytosine, uracil and thymine provided regiospecificallyN1-isomers. This alkylation regiospecificity applies to several other tosylates of primary and secondary alcohols as well. 6-Chloropurine and 2-amino-6-chloropurine were alkylated in N9position. Resulting bis-phosphonates were converted to the respective free phosphonic acids and tested for antiviral and cytostatic activity. Despite the fact that no biological activity was found so far, the outcome of this work can serve as a useful tool in synthesis of novel groups of acyclic nucleoside phosphonates (ANPs).

Dypiridamole (DPM) is widely used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases as a coronary vasodilator and inhibitor of platelet aggregation. Phosphonylmethoxyethyl (PME) and 3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxypropyl (HPMP) derivatives of purines and pyrimidines are potent and selective inhibitors of varicella-zoster virus (VZV), herpes simplex virus (HSV) and human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). We have found that DPM markedly potentiates the antiviral effects of the PME derivatives of adenine (PMEA) and 2,6-diaminopurine (PMEDAP), and of the HPMP derivatives of adenine (HPMPA), 3-deazaadenine (HPMPc3A) and cyclic HPMPA (cHPMPA). This was reflected by a significant decrease in the 50% inhibitory concentration of the acyclic nucleoside phosphonates for VZV-, HSV- and HCMV-induced cytopathic effect or plaque formation. DPM did not enhance the activity of vidarabine, acyclovir or ganciclovir. These results were confirmed by virus yield assays (for HSV and HCMV) and flow cytometry (for VZV).

For its high therapeutic effect, (S)-9-[3-hydroxy-2-(phosphonomethoxy)propyl]adenine (HPMPA) is an important member of a class of acyclic nucleoside phosphonates (ANPs). Although its constitutional isomer, 9-[2-hydroxy-3-(phosphonomethoxy)propyl]adenine (iso-HPMPA), exhibits no antiviral activity, our general interest in C-8 substituted adenine ANPs led us to prepare certain iso-HPMPA derivatives modified at the C-8 position of adenine. Novel alkylating agent, diisopropyl {[2-(tetrahydro-2-pyranyl)oxy-3-tosyloxypropoxy]methyl}phosphonate (9), was prepared by procedure starting from allyl alcohol (4). 9-{3-[(Diisopropoxyphosphoryl)methoxy]-2-hydroxypropyl}adenine (12) was prepared by alkylation of adenine with the alkylating agent 9 followed by acid hydrolysis, although elimination by-product 9-{3-[(diisopropoxyphosphoryl)methoxy]prop-1-enyl}adenine (11) predominated in the reaction mixture. Bromination of the compound 12 gave 8-bromoadenine derivative 13 quantitatively. Nucleophilic substitutions of the bromine atom of compound 13 with N- and O-nucleophiles, followed by phosphonate deprotection, afforded the free phoshonic acids 15–18.

A series of the new 2-alkynyl derivatives of the acyclic nucleoside 9-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)- adenine and their 6-guanidinopurine analogues were prepared by the Sonogashira coupling. The effect of the prepared compounds on A1 and A2A receptors was examined.
