Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel allophenylnorstatine-based HIV-1 protease inhibitors incorporating high affinity P2-ligands

Arun K Ghosh et al. Bioorg Med Chem Lett. .

Abstract

A series of stereochemically defined cyclic ethers as P2-ligands were incorporated in an allophenylnorstatine-based isostere to provide a new series of HIV-1 protease inhibitors. Inhibitors 3b and 3c, containing conformationally constrained cyclic ethers, displayed impressive enzymatic and antiviral properties and represent promising lead compounds for further optimization.
