Even number fatty acid residues-docosanoyl (behenoyl) and stearoyl were selected for introduction to the N-4-position of (S)-1-[3-hydroxy-2-(phosphonomethoxy) propyl] cytosine) (HPMPC, cidofovir), and its 5-azacytosine counterpart, (S)-1-[3-hydroxy-2-(phosphonomethoxy) propyl] cytosine) (HPMP-5-azaC) with the aim to prepare a new type of lipophilic prodrugs. The study on the influence of these modifications to the stability and biological activity of both antivirals was performed. Different reactivity of both systems towards acylation reactions was also found: the 4-NH2 group of cidofovir was more reactive compared to that of HPMP-5-azaC. In 5-azacytosine derivatives, we found mostly a destabilizing effect of the N-4-acylation but this could be compensated by a positive influence of the esterification of the phosphonate group. Chemical stability of the 5-azacytosine moiety in the HPMP series is increasing in the following order: HPMP-5-azaC < cyclic HPMP-5-azaC < HPMP-5-azaC esters. From the view of prodrug development, the best chemical stability was observed in case of the double prodrug 7: the N-4-behenoyl derivative of the hexadecyloxyethyl ester of cyclic HPMP-5-azaC. The free phosphonic acid (N-4-behenoyl-HPMPC) appeared to be a more potent and selective inhibitor of herpesvirus replication than the parent HPMPC derivative.
