By photoionization mass spectrometry the energy characteristics were investigated for a series of nucleosides whose triphosphates possess anti-HIV activity. The electron-donor ability (a value reciprocal to ionization energy) does not correlate with the biological activity of corresponding nucleotides. The energy of glycoside bond rupture depended on modification in deoxyribose.
