In the present work, the experimental and the theoretical vibrational spectra of trifluorothymine were investigated. The FT-IR (400-4000 cm(-1)) and μ-Raman spectra (100-4000 cm(-1)) of trifluorothymine in the solid phase were recorded. The geometric parameters (bond lengths and bond angles) and vibrational

Metabolism of trifluorothymidine (TFT) and its transport across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) has been measured quantitatively in rats by fluorine-19 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((19)F NMR). It is demonstrated that TFT crosses the BBB in micromolar quantities and is metabolized

Recently, beta-L-nucleoside analogues have emerged as a new class of sugar modified nucleosides with potential antiviral and/or antitumoral activity. As a part of our ongoing research on this topic, we decided to synthesize 5-CF3-beta-L-dUrd (7), the hitherto unknown L-enantiomer of
