A series of potent anthranilic acid-based inhibitors of the hepatitis C NS5B polymerase has been identified. The inhibitors bind to a site on NS5B between the thumb and palm regions adjacent to the active site as determined by X-ray crystallography of the enzyme-inhibitor complex. Guided by both molecular modeling and traditional SAR, the enzyme activity of the initial hit was improved by approximately 100-fold, yielding a series of potent and selective NS5B inhibitors with IC50 values as low as 10 nM. These compounds were also inhibitors of the HCV replicon in cultured HUH7 cells.

The Roessing's reaction of 4-substituted 2-acylphenoxyacetic acids give a mixture of benzofurans and 2-benzofurancarboxylic acids. The relative yields of benzofurans and 2-benzofurancarboxylic acids depend on the substituents on the benzene ring of the 2-acylphenoxyacetic acids. Electron-withdrawing substituents such as nitro groups favor the formation of 2-benzofurancarboxylic acids. On the other hand, the formation of benzofurans is favored by the steric hindrance of 2-acyl groups in the reaction of 2-acyl-4-nitrophenoxyacetic acids with anhydrous sodium acetate and acetic anhydride.
