"Aminodiol HIV Protease Inhibitors. Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationships of P-1/P-1' Compounds: Correlation Between Lipophilicity and Cytotoxicity."

According to the authors' abstract of an article published in Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, "A series of novel aminodiol inhibitors of HIV protease based on the lead compound 1 with structural modifications at P-1' were synthesized in order to reduce the cytotoxicity of 1. We have observed a high degree of correlation between the lipophilicity and the cytotoxicity of this series of inhibitors. It was found that appropriate substitution at the para position of the P-1' phenyl group of 1 resulted in the identification of equipotent (both against the enzyme and in cell culture) compounds (101, 10m, 10n, and 15c) which possess significantly decreased cytotoxicity." The corresponding...
