In the search for inhibitors of the replication of RNA viruses, including hepatitis C virus (HCV), the hitherto unknown 4'-C-azidomethyl-beta-D-ribofuranosyl nucleosides of the five naturally occurring nucleic acid bases have been synthesized and their antiviral properties examined. These 4'-C-branched nucleosides were stereospecifically prepared by glycosylation of purine and pyrimidine aglycons with a suitable peracylated 4-C-azidomethyl-D-pentofuranose sugar, followed by removal of the protecting groups. The prepared compounds were tested for their activity against several viruses, but they did not show an antiviral effect.
