Abstract

(Chemical Equation Presented) Beating the RT mutants: A novel class of N2-Cbz-guan-9-yl acetic acid derivatives is endowed with anti-HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) activity in the low micromolar range. These compounds have improved efficacy towards drug-resistant RT mutants relative to nevirapine and efavirenz. Their unique scaffold and interesting resistance profiles warrant further development. © 2007 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
