Abstract
In order to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of azido-thymidine (AZT) by improving its pharmacokinetic properties and to try to target its a ction to the lymphocytes, the phosphodiester of 3 beta(7 beta-hydroxyc holesterol) and of 5'(3'deoxy, 3'azido-thymidine) 1 was synthesized us ing two different techniques of phosphorylation : the phosphoramidite and the hydrogen phosphonate methodologies. Preliminary results show a n in vitro anti-HIV activity.
