thylthio-N-1-(2',3'-anhydro-beta-D-lyxofuranosyl), and o-beta-D-ribofu
ranosyl)-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines (10 and 17) have been synthesized
by 2',3'transelimination of the corresponding N-1(9)- and 2)-beta-D-xy
lofuranosylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines. The compounds and their interme
diates have been screened for their antiviral activities against RDV a
nd EMCV exhibiting 10-100% activity.
