A series of novel thiazolidin-4-ones bearing a hydrophobic substituent at 5-position on the 4,6-dimethyl-pyrimidine ring at N-3 (5c-i and 6c-i) were designed on the prediction of QSAR studies, synthesized in good yields of 60.1-85.3% by microwave-assisted one-pot protocol with the combination of using dicyclohexylcarbonimide (DCC) as the promotor, and evaluated as HIV-1 reverse transcriptases inhibitors. The results of in vitro HIV-1 RT kit assay showed that some of the new compounds, such as 5c, 6c, 5d, 6d, 5g, 5h and 6i, could effectively inhibit RT activity. Among them, compounds 5c and 6c where ethyl group existed at 5-position on N-3 pyrimidine ring were the best ones with the IC50 value of 0.26 μM and 0.23 μM, respectively. Structure-activity relationship analysis of these analogues suggested that the overall hydrophobicity and steric factor were important to the anti-HIV RT activity. The mechanism of the intramolecular cycloamidation promoted by DCC was also investigated with the key uncyclized intermediate 13.
