Anti-HIV agents. Part 55: 3'R,4'R-Di-(O)-(-)-camphanoyl-2',2'-dimethyldihydropyrano(2,3-f)chromone (DCP), a novel anti-HIV agent.

摘要

3'R,4'R-Di-O-(-)-camphanoyl-2',2'-dimethyldihydropyrano[2,3-f]chromone (DCP) (2) was designed and synthesized on the basis of a structure-activity relationship study of 3'R,4'R-di-O-(-)-camphanoyl-(+)-cis-khellactone DCK (1) and its analogues. DCP (2), a pyranochromone, and DCK (1), a pyranocoumarin, have different skeletons. Compound 2 showed potent in vitro inhibition of HIV-1 replication in H9 lymphocyte cells with an EC(50) of 6.78 x 10(-4) microM and TI of 14,500. These values are comparable with those for DCK (1) and better than those of AZT in the same assay.
