Pyridopyrimidinone inhibitors of HIV-1 RNase H

Using a structure based pharmacophore design, a weak inhibitor of RNase H, identified from a small library of two metal binding HIV-1 integrase inhibitors, was optimized for potency and physicochemical properties. This manuscript describes the SAR and in vivo DMPK for the pyridopyrimidinone class of...

Description
Summary:Using a structure based pharmacophore design, a weak inhibitor of RNase H, identified from a small library of two metal binding HIV-1 integrase inhibitors, was optimized for potency and physicochemical properties. This manuscript describes the SAR and in vivo DMPK for the pyridopyrimidinone class of inhibitors. [Display omitted] •Screening identified several naphthyridines as weak inhibitors of RT strand transfer.•A pyridopyrimidinone pharmacophore was subsequently designed as a potent inhibitor of HIV-1 RNase H catalytic activity.•SAR optimization focused on both potency and physicochemical properties.•Rat in vivo studies demonstrated poor bioavailability likely attributed to low cell permeability.
