2',3'- and 3',4'-Seco-nucleosides, retaining the carbon framework of β-D-ribofuranosyl nucleosides but having a hydroxymethyl substituent on the 4' or 5' position, have been synthesized and their antiviral properties examined.These hitherto unknown chiral acyclic nucleosides were stereospecifically prepared by ring opening of β-D-galactopyranosyl nucleosides by means of periodate oxidation followed by borohydride reduction.None of the prepared compounds showed marked antiviral effect against a variety of DNA and RNA viruses.
