Abstract

Abstract Nucleoside analogues having a ring-open structure of general formula where R and R' may be hydrogen, silyl, substituted alkyl or benzyl, and X is an optionally substituted base such as guanine or adenine, have been shown to exhibit anti-viral and other biological activities at non-toxic levels. Many phosphate-linked dinucleotides thereof are also novel compounds.
