Novel lopinavir analogues incorporating heterocyclic replacements of six-member cyclic urea--synthesis and structure-activity relationships

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2004 May 17;14(10):2643-5. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2004.02.089.

Abstract

The HIV protease inhibitor ABT-378 (lopinavir) has a six-member cyclic urea in the P-2 position. A series of analogues in which the six-member cyclic urea is replaced by various heterocycles was synthesized and the structure-activity relationships explored.
