Abstract

A series of novel oxyindole-derived HIV-1 protease inhibitors were designed and synthesized based upon our X-ray crystal structure of inhibitor 2 (TMC-114) bound to HIV-1 protease. The effects of substituents, spirocyclic rings, and ring sizes have been investigated. A number of inhibitors exhibited low nanomolar inhibitory potencies against HIV protease.
