Structure-activity relationship study of pyrimido1,2-c1,3benzothiazin-6-imine derivatives for potent anti-HIV agents.

摘要

3, 4-Dihydro-2H, 6H-pyrimido[1, 2-c][1, 3]benzothiazin-6-imine (PD 404182) is an antiretroviral agent with submicromolar inhibitory activity against human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) and HIV-2 infection. In the current study, the structure-activity relationships of accessory groups at the 3- and 9-positions of pyrimido[1, 2-c][1, 3]benzothiazin-6-imine were investigated for the development of more potent anti-HIV agents. Several different derivatives containing a 9-aryl group were designed and synthesized using Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling and Ullmann coupling reactions. Modification of the m-methoxyphenyl or benzo[d][1, 3]dioxol-5-yl group resulted in improved anti-HIV activity. In addition, the 2, 4-diazaspiro[5.5]undec-2-ene-fused benzo[e][1, 3]thiazine derivatives were designed and tested for their anti-HIV activities. The most potent 9-(benzo[d][1, 3]dioxol-5-yl) derivative was two-threefold more effective against several strains of HIV-1 and HIV-2 than the parent compound, PD 404182.
