Abstract

The present disclosure provides pyrrolopyrimidine nucleoside analogs of the Formula I, Formula IA, Formula IB, or Formula II and phospholipid conjugates and pharmaceutical compositions thereof wherein R c and A are defined herein. Also presented are methods of treating and/or preventing viral infection and/or viral infection-associated disease or disorder with one or more compounds of Formula I, Formula IA, Formula IB, or Formula II.
