A series of 4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrazine-2-carboxamides was synthesized and tested for their inhibition of HIV-1 integrase catalytic activity and HIV-1 replication in cells. Structure-activity studies around lead compound 5 indicated that a coplanar relationship of metal-binding heteroatoms provides optimal binding to the integrase active site. Identification of potency-enhancing substituents and adjustments in lipophilicity provided 17b which inhibits integrase-catalyzed strand transfer with an IC50 value of 74 nM and inhibits HIV-1 replication in cell culture in the presence of 50% normal human serum with an IC95 value of 63 nM.

Bicyclic pyrazoles of Formula I are inhibitors of HIV integrase and inhibitors of HIV replication: (I), wherein Z is O or N(R8); n is an integer equal to zero or 1; and R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7 and R8 are defined herein. The compounds are useful in the prevention and treatment of infection by HIV and in the prevention, delay in the onset, and treatment of AIDS. The compounds are employed against HIV infection and AIDS as compounds per se or in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The compounds and their salts can be employed as ingredients in pharmaceutical compositions, optionally in combination with other antivirals, immunomodulators, antibiotics or vaccines.
