Abstract

Using Sonogashira and Heck coupling reactions, a series of 5-alkynyl and 5-alkenyl substituted 2’-O-methyluridine derivatives were synthesized in high yields. These compounds were used to screen for inhibitors of HCV, however none of them showed significant HCV inhibitory activity under 300 μM.
