Abstract

Novel mutual pro-drugs in which 2′,3′-dideoxyinosine anti-HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) drug and 3-octadecyloxy-propane-1,2-diol anti-inflammatory drug were attached to the same molecule via different biodegradable linkages, were synthesized through two-step enzymatic transesterification by a commercial lipase in acetone.
