A series of amidate prodrugs of cyclic 9-[3-hydroxy-2-(phosphonomethoxy)propyl]adenine (cHPMPA) featuring different amino acid motifs were synthesized. All phosphonamidates derived from ()-cHPMPA displayed a broad spectrum activity against herpesviruses with EC values in the low nanomolar range. A phosphonobisamidate prodrug of ()-HPMPA also exhibited a remarkably potent antiviral activity. In addition, the leucine ester prodrug of ()-cHPMPA and phosphonobisamidate valine ester prodrug of ()-HPMPA proved stable in human plasma. These data warrant further development of cHPMPA prodrugs, especially against human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), for which there is a high need for treatment in transplant recipients.
合成了一系列具有不同氨基酸基序的环状9-[3-羟基-2-(膦酰甲氧基)丙基]腺嘌呤(cHPMPA)的酰胺前药。所有源自(-)-cHPMPA的膦酰胺对疱疹病毒均表现出广谱活性,其半数有效浓度(EC)值处于低纳摩尔范围。(-)-HPMPA的膦双酰胺前药也表现出显著的强效抗病毒活性。此外,(-)-cHPMPA的亮氨酸酯前药和(-)-HPMPA的膦双酰胺缬氨酸酯前药在人血浆中被证明是稳定的。这些数据表明cHPMPA前药值得进一步研发,特别是针对人巨细胞病毒(HCMV),在移植受者中对其治疗有很高的需求。
