Molecular modeling studies led to the rational discovery of N(1)-arylsulfonyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-one as a novel template for the design of new non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) that are active against wild-type and mutant strains of HIV-1. It is worth noting that compound 3 proved to have antiretroviral activity similar to that of efavirenz and greater than that of nevirapine, two of the three NNRTIs currently available in antiretroviral therapy.

Abstract

Molecular modeling studies led to the rational discovery of N(1)-arylsulfonyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-one as a novel template for the design of new non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) that are active against wild-type and mutant strains of HIV-1. It is worth noting that compound 3 proved to have antiretroviral activity similar to that of efavirenz and greater than that of nevirapine, two of the three NNRTIs currently available in antiretroviral therapy.
