    No full text
    The synthesis and the anti-HIV-1 activity of novel benzo[d]isothiazole hydrazones are reported. Target compounds tested in MT-4 cells cultures for their anti-HIV properties against wild type HIV-1 and HIV strains carrying clinically relevant mutations (EFVR, Y181C and K103/ Y181C) showed good activity against wild type HIV-1 and against the EFVR mutant. In terms of SAR the relevant result was that, in the class of benzisothiazole hydrazones, the benzo[d]isothiazol-3(2H)-one moiety (compounds 1 and 4) is an essential structural requirement for the antiretroviral activity

    Novel Synthesis and Anti-HIV-1 Activity of 2-Arylthio-6-benzyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-ones (Aryl S-DABOs)

    The synthesis and the anti-HIV-1 activity of a series of 2-arylthio-6-benzyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-ones (aryl S-DABOs) are reported. These compounds were synthesized via a coupling reaction of the corresponding 6-benzyl-2-thiouracils with aryl iodides in the presence of neocuproine hydrate, copper(I) iodide, and sodium tert-butoxide. Target compounds showed moderate activity against HIV-1

    The antimitotic drug 4,6 dimethyl 2 amino 3,4,5 trimethoxy phenyl pyrimidine inhibits the nucleoside transport system of cells from various animal species

    4,6-dimethyl-2-amino-3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl-pyrimidine (B-31) is a pyrimidine derivative previously reported to arrest the mitotic cycle of mammalian cells in metaphase. In the present study it is shown that B-31 also acts as a specific inhibitor of the cellular uptake of nucleosides. The uptake of purinic and pyrimidinic nucleosides is inhibited by 80-90% at concentrations in the range 5-20 mu g/ml, whereas those of nucleobases, leucine, choline and glucose are unaltered at the maximum nontoxic dose of B-31 (25 mu g/ml). Various mammalian (human, monkey and murine) and avian cell are equally sensitive to the inhibition of nucleoside transport. The antimitotic effect of B-31, by contrast, is species-specific: human cells are the most sensitive whereas monkey and chicken fibroblasts appear resistant to this effect. Both effects can be reversed by removal of B-31 from the medium; inhibition of nucleoside transport can also be reversed by high doses of the nucleosides themselves

    Synthesis of some novel 2,6-disubstituted pyridazin-3-ones as TMC120 analogues

    No full text
    Different analogues of TMC120 derived from pyridazin-3(2H)-one rings were synthesized by coupling of 3,6-dichloropyridazine with arylacetonitriles, phenols and/or aniline derivative followed by hydrolysis and alkylation with different benzyl bromide derivatives
