Abstract The synthesis and biological evaluation of novel guanidino sugars as isonucleoside analogs is described. 5-Guanidino xylofuranoses containing 3-O-saturated/unsaturated hydrocarbon or aromatic-containing moieties were accessed from 5-azido xylofuranoses via reduction followed by guanidinylation with N,N -bis(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-N -triflylguanidine. Molecules comprising novel types of isonucleosidic structures including 5-guanidino 3-O-methyl-branched N-benzyltriazole isonucleosides and a guanidinomethyltriazole 3 -O-dodecyl xylofuranos-5 -yl isonucleoside were accessed. The guanidinomethyltriazole derivative and a 3-O-dodecyl (N-Boc)guanidino xylofuranose were revealed as selective inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (K-i=22.87 and 7.49 mu M, respectively). The latter also showed moderate antiproliferative effects in chronic myeloid leukemia (K562) and breast cancer (MCF-7) cells. An aminomethyltriazole 5 -isonucleoside was the most potent molecule with low micromolar GI(50) values in both cells (GI(50)=6.33 mu M, 8.45 mu M), similar to that of the drug 5-fluorouracil in MCF-7 cells. Moreover, the most bioactive compounds showed low toxicity in human fibroblasts, further indicating their interest as promising lead molecules.
