Abstract

3',4'-Di-O-(S)-comphanoyl-(+)-cis-khellactone (DCK) is a synthetic khellactone ester that exhibits potent anti-HIV activity with a mechanism distinct from clinically used anti-HIV agents. Several series of DCK analoges have been synthesized and evaluated for inhibitory effects against HIV. This review article describes recent progress in the discovery, structural modification, and structure-activity relationship studies of potent anti-HIV DCK derivatives.
