Novel 1-[2-(Diarylmethoxy)ethyl]-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazoles as HIV-1 Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors. A Structure−Activity Relationship Investigation
摘要:
1-[2-(Diarylmethoxy)ethyl]-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazoles (DAMNIs) is a novel family of HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) active at submicromolar concentration. Replacement of one phenyl ring of 1-[2-(diphenylmethoxy)ethyl]-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole (4) with heterocyclic rings, such as 2-thienyl or 3-pyridinyl, led to novel DAMNIs with increased activity. In HIV-1 WT cell-based assay the racemic 1-{2-{alpha-(thiophen-2-yl)phenylmethoxylethyl}-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole (7) (EC50 = 0.03 mu M) proved 5 times more active than compound 4. Docking experiments showed that the introduction of a chiral center would not affect the binding of both (R)-7 and (S)-7. The internal scoring function of the Autodock program calculated the same inhibition constant (K-i = 7.9 nM) for the two enantiomers. Compounds 7 (ID50 = 8.25 mu M) were found more active than efavirenz (ID50 = 25 mu M) against the viral RT carrying the K103N mutation, suggesting for these compounds a potential use in efavirenz based anti-AIDS regimens.

Using Schiff-base amino alcohols as catalysts which were readily derived from natural amino acids in three steps, a series of valuable optically active thiophenyl methanols (4a-4n) were first obtained in good yields and high enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee) through the asymmetric addition of thiophenylboronic acid to aldehydes in the presence of ZnEt2 in toluene.
