Abstract

A series of novel aminodiol inhibitors of HIV Protease based on the lead compound 1 with structural modifications at P1' were synthesized in order to reduce the cytotoxicity of 1. We have observed a high degree of correlation between the lipophilicity and cytotoxicity of this series of inhibitors. It was found that appropriate substitution at the para position of the P1' phenyl group of 1 resulted in the identification of equipotent (both against the enzyme and in Cell Culture) compounds (10l, 10m, 10n, and 15c) which possess significantly decreased cytotoxicity.
