Synthesis of new acylsulfamoyl benzoxaboroles as potent inhibitors of HCV NS3 protease
摘要:
HCV NS3/4A serine protease is essential for the replication of the HCV virus and has been a clinically validated target. A series of HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitors containing a novel acylsulfamoyl benzoxaborole moiety at the P1 ' region was synthesized and evaluated. The resulting P1-P3 and P2-P4 macrocyclic inhibitors exhibited sub-nanomolar potency in the enzymatic assay and low nanomolar activity in the cell-based replicon assay. The in vivo PK evaluations of selected compounds are also described. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
