Following the antiviral screening of a wide series of new angular and linear N-tricyclic systems both in silico and in vitro, the [4,7]phenantroline nucleus emerged as a new ring system endowed with activity against viruses containing single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genomes (ssRNA+). Here, we report our new pathway to the synthesis of this nucleus and of several related derivatives, as well as the results of both cell-based antiviral assays and molecular dynamics simulations. In the antiviral screening, several compounds (9 and 16-20) showed to be fairly active against BVDV, CVB-2, and Polio 1 (EC50, 6-25 μM). According to molecular dynamics simulations, compounds (15) and (17) emerged for its potency against the HCV NS5B, with a calculated IC50 of 11-12 μM.

3-Methoxybenzamide (1) is a weak inhibitor of the essential bacterial cell division protein FtsZ. Alkyl derivatives of 1 are potent antistaphylococcal compounds with suboptimal drug-like properties. Exploration of the structure-activity relationships of analogues of these inhibitors led to the identification of potent antistaphylococcal compounds with improved pharmaceutical properties.

Pharmacokinetic studies in cynomolgus monkeys with a novel prototype selective androgen receptor modulator revealed trace amounts of an aniline fragment released through hydrolytic metabolism. This aniline fragment was determined to be mutagenic in an Ames assay. Subsequent concurrent optimization for target activity and avoidance of mutagenicity led to the identification of a pharmacologically superior clinical candidate without mutagenic potential.

Compounds having the structure: are HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitors, wherein A, X, Y, Z, R1 and R2 are defined herein. The compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are useful in the inhibition of HIV reverse transcriptase, the prophylaxis and treatment of infection by HIV and in the prophylaxis, delay in the onset, and treatment of AIDS. The compounds and their salts can be employed as ingredients in pharmaceutical compositions, optionally in combination with other antivirals, immunomodulators, antibiotics or vaccines.
Eco-friendly reductive acetamidation of arylnitro compounds by thioacetate anion through in situ catalytic regeneration: application in the synthesis of Acetaminophen
