Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reverse transcriptase (RT)-associated ribonuclease H (RNase H) remains an unvalidated drug target. Reported HIV RNase H inhibitors generally lack significant antiviral activity. We report herein the design, synthesis, biochemical and antiviral evaluations of a new 6-biphenylmethyl subtype of the 3-hydroxypyrimidine-2,4-dione (HPD) chemotype. In biochemical assays, analogues of this new subtype potently inhibited RT RNase H in low nanomolar range without inhibiting RT polymerase (pol) or integrase strand transfer (INST) at the highest concentrations tested. In cell-based assays, a few analogues inhibited HIV in low micromolar range without cytotoxicity at concentrations up to 100 μM.

3-Hydroxypyrimidine-2,4-dione (HPD) represents a versatile chemical core in the design of inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reverse transcriptase (RT)-associated RNase H and integrase strand transfer (INST). We report herein the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of an HPD subtype (4) featuring a cyclohexylmethyl group at the C-6 position. Antiviral testing showed that most analogues of 4 inhibited HIV-1 in the low nanomolar to submicromolar range, without cytotoxicity at concentrations up to 100?μM. Biochemically, these analogues dually inhibited both the polymerase (pol) and the RNase H functions of RT, but not INST. Co-crystal structure of 4a with RT revealed a nonnucleoside RT inhibitor (NNRTI) binding mode. Interestingly, chemotype 11, the synthetic precursor of 4 lacking the 3-OH group, did not inhibit RNase H while potently inhibiting pol. By virtue of the potent antiviral activity and biochemical RNase H inhibition, HPD subtype 4 could provide a viable platform for eventually achieving potent and selective RNase H inhibition through further medicinal chemistry.

A new molecular scaffold featuring an N-hydroxyimide functionality and capable of inhibiting both reverse transcriptase (RT) and integrase (IN) of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was rationally designed based on 1-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]-6-(phenylthio)thymine (HEPT) non-nucleoside RT inhibitors (NNRTIs). The design involves a minimal 3-N hydroxylation of the pyrimidine ring of HEPT compound to yield a chelating triad which, along with the existing benzyl group, appeared to satisfy major structural requirements for IN binding. In the mean time, this chemical modification did not severely compromise the compound's ability to inhibit RT. A preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) study reveals that this N-3 OH is essential for IN inhibition and that the benzyl group on N-1 side chain is more important for IN binding than the one on C-6.

N-3-Hydroxylation of pyrimidine-2,4-diones was recently found to yield inhibitors of both HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) and integrase (IN). An extended series of analogues featuring a benzoyl group at the C-6 position of the pyrimidine ring was synthesized. Through biochemical studies it was found that these new analogues are dually active against both RT and IN in low micromolar range. Antiviral assays confirmed that these new inhibitors are active against HIV-1 in cell culture at nanomolar to low micromolar range, further validating 3-hydroxypyrimidine-2,4-diones as a viable scaffold for antiviral development.
3-Hydroxypyrimidine-2,4-diones as an Inhibitor Scaffold of HIV Integrase

Integrase (IN) represents a clinically validated target for the development of antivirals against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Inhibitors with a novel structure core are essential for combating resistance associated with known IN inhibitors (INIs). We have previously disclosed a novel dual inhibitor scaffold of HIV IN and reverse transcriptase (RT). Here we report the complete structure-activity relationship (SAR), molecular modeling, and resistance profile of this inhibitor type on IN inhibition. These studies support an antiviral mechanism of dual inhibition against both IN and RT and validate 3-hydroxypyrimidine-2,4-diones as an IN inhibitor scaffold.
[1,2]-Wittig rearrangement from chloromethyl ethers

The reaction of different chloromethyl ethers 1 with an excess of lithium powder and a catalytic amount of 4,4′-di-tert-butylbiphenyl (2.5 mol %) in THF at 0 °C leads to the corresponding α-lithiomethyl ether intermediates, through a chlorine-lithium exchange, which spontaneously undergo a clean [1,2]-Wittig rearrangement affording the expected homobenzylic alcohols 2. This is the first version of this rearrangement starting from easily available chloromethyl ethers.
Quaternary salts of 2-[(hydroxyimino)methyl]imidazole. 3. Synthesis and evaluation of (alkenyloxy)-, (alkynyloxy)-, and (aralkyloxy)methyl quaternarized 2[(hydroxyimino)methyl]-1-alkylimidazolium halides as reactivators and therapy for soman intoxication

A series of structurally related monosubstituted 1-[(alkenyloxy)methyl]-, 1-[(alkynyloxy)methyl]-, and 1-[(aralkyloxy)methyl]-2-[(hydroxyimino)methyl]-3-methylimidazolium halides were prepared and evaluated. All new compounds were characterized with respect to (hydroxyimino)methyl acid dissocation constant, nucleophilicity, and octanol-buffer partition coefficient. The alkynyloxy-substituted compounds were also evaluated in vitro with respect to reversible inhibition of human erythrocyte (RBC) acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and kinetics of reactivation of human AChE inhibited by ethyl p-nitrophenyl methylphosphonate (EPMP). In vivo evaluation in mice revealed that coadministration of alkynyloxy-substituted imidazolium compounds with atropine sulfate provided significant protection against a 2 x LD50 challenge of GD. For the alkynyloxy-substituted imidazolium drugs there is a direct relationship between in vitro and in vivo activity: the most potent in vivo compounds against GD proved to be potent in vitro reactivators against EPMP-inhibited human AChE. These results differ from the observations made on the sterically hindered imidazolium compounds (see previous article) and suggest that several antidotal mechanisms of protective action may be applicable for the imidazolium aldoxime family of therapeutics. The ability of the alkynyloxy substituents to provide life-saving protection against GD intoxication was not transferable to the pyridinium or triazolium heteroaromatic ring systems.
