Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In the search for new and effective prodrugs against the herpes simplex virus, a series of acyclovir analogues with a thiazole ring containing amino acids (glycine, alanine, valine, leucine) has been investigated. The chemical stability of some of the compounds containing different residues was studied at pH 1 and pH 7.4 at a temperature of 37°C. An HPLC method was developed for quantification of the unchanged ester concentration.Some of the esters (Gly-thiazole, Ala-thiazole-acyclovir, Leu-thiazole-acyclovir) were rather unstable, especially under acidic conditions, and underwent rapid hydrolysis into the chemical precursor acyclovir. At pH 7.4, the stability of Valthiazole-acyclovir was remarkable. At this pH, Val-thiazole-acyclovir showed stability higher than that of valacyclovir (the first effective prodrug of acyclovir).
