T. Yokomatsu et al., Synthesis of 1,1-difluoro-5-(1H-9-purinyl)-2-pentenylphosphonic acids and the related methano analogues. Remarkable effect of the nucleobases and thecyclopropane rings on inhibitory activity toward purine nucleoside phosphorylase, BIO MED CH, 6(12), 1998, pp. 2495-2505
A series of 1,1-difluoro-5-(1H-9-purinyl)-2-pentenylphosphonic acids, (E)-2
a,b and (Z)-2a,b, as well as the related methano analogues (+/-)-3a,b and (
+/-)-4a,b were prepared for evaluation of their PNP inhibitory activities.
The cyclopopane ring and the hypoxanthine residue were found to increase th
e profile of inhibitory activity. The IC50 and K-i values of difluoro({1R*,
2S*)-2-[2-(6-oxo-6,9-dihydro-1H-9-purinyl)ethyl]cyclopropyl)methylphosphoni
c acid (+/-)3b toward PNP purified from Cellulomonas sp. were determined to
be 70 nM and 8.8 nM, respectively. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All righ
