Yes |
A library of new small molecules that could be used as anticancer, antiviral drugs |
A synthetic routine that allows one to manipulate the substrate flexibility at the final/penultimate steps- yielding a small library of modified nucleosides without the need for synthesising every compound from the beginning, and hence siginificantly reducing drug development time and costs. |
