Abstract
We have explored the potential of derivatives of the dipyrido[2,3-b:2',3'-e][1,4]diazepinone ring system as inhibitors of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT). These compounds are isomeric to the potent RT inhibitor nevirapine and are available via a novel Smiles rearrangement on intermediates used for the synthesis of nevirapine analogs. Derivatives of this isomeric series are weaker inhibitors of RT than corresponding nevirapine analogs, although with appropriate substitution of the A- and C-pyridine rings activity can be improved.
