Abstract

A novel class of tri-cyclic HIV Integrase inhibitors were designed based on conformational analysis of 1,6-naphthyridine carboxamide compound L-870810 and docking the designed inhibitor into the active site of our integrase enzyme model. The efficient syntheses of pyrroloquinoline tri-cyclic analogs are described. The SAR studies resulted in the identification of a lead compound that is more potent and more soluble than L-870810.
