Novel 4'-trifluoromethyl-5'-norcarbocyclic purine phosphonic acid analogs were efficiently synthesized from commercially available 1,3-dihydroxy cyclopentane (5). Trifluoromethylation was successfully performed by using the Ruppert-Prakash reaction. The purine nucleosidic bases were efficiently coupled by using the Mitsunobu reaction. The synthesized adenosine phosphonic acids analogs 13 and 16 were screened for antiviral activity against human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1). Adenine derivative 13 exhibited significant anti-HIV-1 activity.
