A series of oxaanalogs of myristic acid were synthesized and tested for antiviral activity in MT4 cells infected with human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1).The synthesized acids have no toxic effect on uninfected MT4 cells at a concentration of 100μM. 14,14,14-Trifluoro-12-oxatetradecanoic acid substantially (by 75percent) inhibits the reproduction of HIV-1.Other compounds synthesized, (7Z)-13-, (9Z)-13-, and (7Z)-11-oxatetradecenoic acids, exhibit no antiviral effect.Key words: inhibitors of retroviruses; anti-HIV agents; protein N-myristoylation; mystoylCoA: protein-N-myristoyltransferase; myristic acid; oxaanalogs; inhibitors of virus-specific protein myristoylation
