Summary: | Pyridone inhibitors of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase (NNRTI) with improved potency are reported.
Next generation NNRTIs are sought which possess both broad spectrum antiviral activity against key mutant strains and a high genetic barrier to the selection of new mutant viral strains. Pyridones were evaluated as an acyclic conformational constraint to replace the aryl ether core of MK-4965 (
1) and the more rigid indazole constraint of MK-6186 (
2). The resulting pyridone compounds are potent inhibitors of HIV RT and have antiviral activity in cell culture that is superior to other next generation NNRTI’s. |
