Abstract

New quinolonyl diketo acid compounds bearing various substituents at position 6 of the quinolone scaffold were designed and synthesized as potential HIV-1 integrase inhibitors. These new compounds were evaluated for their antiviral and anti-integrase activity and showed inhibitory potency similar to that of 6-bromide analog 2. Molecular modeling and docking studies were performed to rationalize these data and to provide a detailed understanding of the mechanism of inhibition for this class of compounds.
