rac-Carbovir
A carbocyclic nucleoside analogue of guanosine, with a ring made only of carbon atoms in place of the sugar ring, developed in the 1980s at the University of Minnesota by Robert Vince's group: it is active against HIV and underlies abacavir, which the body converts into carbovir triphosphate. This family brings together the active ingredient and nitrosamines.
