In light of a proposed molecular mechanism for the C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) antagonist 1 (AMD3100), a template with the general structure 2 was designed, and 15 was identified as a lead by means of an affinity binding assay against the liga

The invention provides compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use of certain compounds that are antagonists of the chemokine CXCR4 receptor, and in particular to inhibit viral entry of certain viruses. Certain compounds in particular can reduce entry of immunodeficiency virus (HIV) into a cell while not reducing the capacity of stem cells to proliferate, and therefore can be useful for long term treatment regimes. The compounds are useful in particular in the treatment or prevention of HIV infections.
