By a small modification in the core structure of the previously reported series of HIV-1 protease inhibitors that encompasses a tertiary alcohol as part of the transition-state mimicking scaffold, up to 56 times more potent compounds were obtained exhibiting EC50 values down to 3 nM. Three of the inhibitors also displayed excellent activity against selected resistant isolates of HIV-1. The synthesis of 25 new and optically pure HIV-1 protease inhibitors is reported, along with methods for elongation of the inhibitor P1′ side chain using microwave-accelerated, palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, the biological evaluation, and X-ray data obtained from one of the most potent analogues cocrystallized with both the wild type and the L63P, V82T, I84 V mutant of the HIV-1 protease.
