In order to study the electronic effects of 5-substituents of 2'-fluoro-ara-U on antiviral activity, eight nucleosides were synthesized and screened for their activity. Preliminary in vitro studies revealed that 5-thiocyano-, 5-hydroxy- and 5-formyl-ara-U are moderately active against HSV-1, HSV-2 and VZV, but they are also cytotoxic. None of these showed significant activity against CMV.
