β¦ Synopsis
A novel synthetic methodology for the hydroxymethyl substituted acyclic acetal functionality was developed. The rationally designed phosphonate analogue 3 of ganciclovir monophosphate was highly active against human cytomegalovirus.
Ganciclovir ( ) is an exceptionally potent agent against herpesviruses 1-3 and has been approved for the treatment of cytomegalovirus retinitis. As the essential
