Synthesis and Antiviral Activity of a Series of 2′-<i>C</i>-Methyl-4′-Thionucleoside Monophosphate Prodrugs

The NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a validated target for nucleoside antiviral drug therapy. We endeavored to synthesize and test a series of 4′-thionucleosides with a monophosphate prodrug moiety for their antiviral activity against HCV and other related viruses...
