Synthesis of (R)- and (S)-β-hydroxyphosphonate acyclonucleosides: structural analogues of Adefovir (PMEA)

Diethyl (2-(4-Phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)benzyl) Phosphate

Here we describe a full structural elucidation of the diethyl (2-(4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)benzyl) phosphate. This compound is a common by-product present in the synthetic protocols to access the α-hydroxy phosphonate compounds through of a Phospha-Brook rearrangement. Thus, a complete NMR structural characterization of this rearrangement by-product was performed by 1H, 13C{1H}, 31P{1H}, COSY, HSQC, and HMBC NMR experiments. Additionally, we have demonstrated that the 1H-31P HMBC is a 2D heteroatom NMR experiment which combines the simple identification by 31P chemical shift with the detection sensitivity by 1H spectrum in a practical procedure.

Synthesis and study of (R)- and (S)-β-hydroxyphosphonate acyclonucleosides as structural analogues of (S)-HPMPC (cidofovir)

Modification of the acyclic chain highly impacts antiviral activity and recognition by human nmpks.
