We report on the synthesis of the anti hepatitis C virus (HCV) agent 4'-azidoadenosine (1) and the application of the phosphoramidate ProTide technology to this nucleoside. The synthesis of 1 was achieved through an epoxide intermediate followed by regio- and stereoselective ring opening by azidotrimethylsilane in the presence of a Lewis acid. Compound 1 did not inhibit HCV replication in cell culture at concentrations up to 0.1 mM. However, a submicromolar active agent could be derived from 1 by the application of the ProTide technology. All the phosphoramidates prepared were L-alanine derivatives with variations in the aryl moiety and in the ester part of the amino acid. The benzyl ester and the l-naphthyl phosphate (18) had the best activity in replicon assay. Phosphoramidates (18-21) achieved a significant improvement in antiviral potency over the parent nucleoside (1) with no increase in cytotoxicity.
