Abstract

The synthesis of novel, potent diol-based HIV-1 protease inhibitors, having either -SAr, -SCH(2)Ar, or -SCH(2)R groups as P1/P1' substituents is described. They can be prepared using a straightforward synthesis involving a thiol nucleophilic ring opening of a diepoxide. Inhibitor 13 was found to be a potent inhibitor of HIV-1 PR, showing good antiviral activity in a cell-based assay.
