Non-nucleoside inhibitors of the hepatitis C virus NS5B RNA-dependant RNA polymerase: 2-Aryl-3-heteroaryl-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives
摘要:
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B RNA polymerase is crucial for replicating the HCV RNA genome and is an attractive target for developing anti-HCV drugs. A novel series of 2,3-diaryl-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives were evaluated for their ability to inhibit HCV NS5B. Of this series, compounds 4c, 5b, 5c and 6 emerged as more potent, displaying over 95% inhibition of NS5B RNA polymerase activity in vitro. The two most active compounds 4c and 5c exhibited an IC50 of 31.9 mu M and 32.2 mu M, respectively, against HCV NS5B. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Compounds having isothiourea or thiourea functional group have shown high anti-HIV-1 activity. Therefore, a series of 2-aryl-3-heteroaryl-1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for anti-HIV-1 RT activity. The results of in vitro tests showed that the compound 9 exhibited EC50 at 0.26 mu M with minimal toxicity in MT-4 cells as compared to 0.35 mu M for thiazobenzimidazole (TBZ). It may be inferred from the present data that majority of compounds in this series exhibit higher selectivity index than TBZ. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
