Abstract: This invention relates to new nucleotide analogues and solves the technical problem of their use as biologically active compounds. The subject of this invention are N-(2-phosphonylmethoxyethyl) and N-(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxypropyl) derivatives of pyrimidine and purine bases, easily accessible from heterocyolic bases and their N-(2-hydroxyethyl) or N-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl) derivatives. Some of the compounds, according to this invention, exhibit a marked antiviral activity or can be converted into such active compounds by chemical transformations.

Abstract: 1,5-Anhydrohexitol nucleoside analogues represented by the general formula I: ##STR1## wherein the hexitol has the D-configuration and the carbon atom on which the base moiety and the X substituent stand both have the (S)-configuration and further wherein:B is a heterocyclic ring selected from the group consisting of pyrimidine and purine bases; andX is hydrogen, azido, F, Cl, Br, I, amino, --NHR.sup.2, --N(R.sup.2).sub.2, --OR.sup.2, --SR.sup.2, or CN; wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 alkenyl, aroyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 alkanoyl, and phosphoryl.These nucleoside analogues are useful as antiviral agents against herpes simplex virus, vaccina virus, or varicella zoster virus. The definition of the X group should include --N(R.sup.2).sub.2 instead of --N(N.sup.2).sub.2.

Abstract: The disclosure concerns pyrimidine derivatives represented by the following general formulas [I] and [I'] and having antiviral activity, particularly antiretroviral activity such as anti-HIV activity: ##STR1## and pharmaceutical compositions having antiviral activity and comprising the above-described derivative(s) as an active ingredient.

Abstract: A pyrimidine nucleoside derivative and pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof specified by the presence of ethyl group or isopropyl group at 5-position of the pyrimidine ring and the presence of a (substituted) phenylthio or a (substituted) benzyl group at 6-position of the pyrimidine ring is provided. The pyrimidine nucleoside derivative and pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof show a markedly higher anti-retroviral activity than conventional analogous compounds and have a relatively low toxicity against the host cells, and therefore, are useful as an active ingredient of antiviral agent.

Abstract: Sulphated vinyl polymers such as sulphated polyvinylalcohol, sulphated copolymers of (meth)acrylic acid and vinylalcohol, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, have an antiviral effect against human immunodeficiency virus and may therefore be used as a therapeutic agent for treating retrovirus infections like AIDS and AIDS-related diseases. Their antiviral activity is apparently based on inhibition of virus adsorption; their inhibitory effect on giant cell formation is stronger than that of dextran sulphate.
