Paragraph 0953, (2019/05/15)
The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I) that are useful as hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5A inhibitors, the synthesis of such compounds, and the use of such compounds for inhibiting HCV NS5A activity, for treating or preventing HCV infections and for inhibiting HCV viral replication and/or viral production in a cell-based system.
The synthesis and transition temperatures of 2-(4-alkyl- and 4-alkoxy-phenyl)-5-cyano-1-benzofurans and related diaryl-1-benzofurans - An assessment of how deviations from linearity and conformational effects in a core unit affect mesogenicity

The synthesis and transition temperatures are reported for several 2-(4-alkyl- and 4-alkoxy-phenyl)-5-cyano-1-benzofurans, 2-(4′-alkylbiphenyl-4-yl)-5-cyano- and 5-(4′-alkylbiphenyl-4-yl)-2-cyano-1-benzofurans, and for compounds with other combinations of terminal alkyl and cyano groups in 2,5-disubstituted-1-benzofurans containing two phenyl units, some isolated examples of related cyclohexane systems are also presented. The mesogenic behaviour of these compounds and several intermediates (e.g. amides, acids and esters) is discussed and the transition temperatures are rationalised on the following basis (a) 1-benzofuran is a superior core unit to benzene, (b) 2,5-disubstitution in 1-benzofuran gives a bent core which adversely affects mesogenicity, to an extent which depends on its position in the core, (c) antiparallel associations in terminal cyano compounds can eliminate the disadvantage of a bent core structure, (d) 2-aryl-1-benzofurans have negligible inter-annular twist but 5-aryl-1-benzofurans have similar inter-annular twist to that in biphenyls.
