Antiherpesviral activity and inhibitory action on cell growth of 5-alkenyl derivatives of 1-beta D-arabinofuranosyluracil

Antiherpesviral activity of 5-vinyl-1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyluracil was as high as that of 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylthymine, whereas the former was less inhibitory to cell growth than the latter. 5-Propenyl- and 5-butenyl-1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyluracil were less active than 5-vinyl-1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyluracil.
