Abstract

A series of 6-naphthylmethyl substituted HEPT analogues bearing a β-carbonyl and a terminal phenyl ring or ester groups on the N-1 side chain of uracil were synthesized, and the in vitro anti-HIV activity was evaluated. Most of these HEPTs were considerably less potent and selective or inactive, only a few compounds showed moderate or high activity against HIV-1. The results demonstrated that the anti-HIV-1 activity of 6-naphthylmethyl substituted HEPT analogues was diminished or eliminated when the β-oxygen of N-1 side chain was replaced by a carbonyl group.
