Rp. Tripathi et al., SYNTHESES AND ANTIVIRAL ACTIVITIES OF -1,2-O-ISOPROPYLIDENE-ALPHA-D-GLUCO(XYLO)FURANOSES, Indian journal of chemistry. Sect. B: organic chemistry, including medical chemistry, 34(9), 1995, pp. 791-795
Syntheses and antiviral evaluation of a number of 1,2-O-isopropylidene
-alpha-D-gluco(xylo)-furanoses (5-12) against encephalomyocarditis vir
us (ECMV) and semliki forest virus.(SFV) have been discussed. Only one
compound propyl]-1,2-O-isopropylidine-alpha-D-glucofuranose (9) could
protect the infected mice to an extent of 60% and 70% against EMCV an
d SFV respectively.
