Popis: The synthesis of enantiomerically pure carbocyclic adenosine derivatives which have been prepared based on the kinetic resolution of a trans -2-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentanol derivative is described. Their corresponding triphosphates were evaluated as inhibitors of DNA polymerase β, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT), telomerase, Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I and reverse transcriptase of human immunodeficiency virus. Surprisingly, the triphosphate of (1 S ,2 R )-1-(6-aminopurin-9-yl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentane [(1 S ,2 R )- 6 ] and its enantiomer (1 R ,2 S )- 6 emerged as strong inhibitors of TdT ( K i =0.5 and 1.9 mM, K mapp dATP=40 mM), whereas the activities of all other enzymes tested proved to be unaffected.
