In contrast to 5'-O-carbonate 3TC derivatives (23, 24), which are clearly 3TC prodrugs, the corresponding 3TC carbamates (15-21 and 25), found to be very stable compounds with respect to enzymatic hydrolysis (cellular lysates and culture cell media) and still active on both HIV-1 and HBV infected cells, may not be 3TC prodrugs. The antiviral properties as well as the mechanism of action of 3TC analogues have been studied and evaluated.
