Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel tricyclic HIV-1 integrase inhibitors by modification of its pyridine ring
摘要:
This communication details both the syntheses and biological evaluation of a novel class of HIV-1 integrase inbibitors. When the quinoline moiety is replaced with the quinoxoline moiety, the antiviral activity is significantly compromised. Similarly, introduction of imidazole to replace the pyridine ring is deleterious to the potency of the compound against the enzyme. Substitution at the 3-position of the pyridine has been investigated. The presence of the pyridine ring in the tricyclic core is preferred for antiviral activity against HIV integrase.
