Stereoselective Synthesis of Furo[2,3-c]pyridine Pyrimidine Thioethers, A New Class of Potent HIV-1 Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors

Abstract: An efficient stereoselective total synthesis of the furo[2,3-c]pyridine thiopyrimidine HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitors, PNU-142721 and PNU-109886, has been developed. A convergent approach was utilized, providing direct access to the desired (S)-configuration of the molecule by making use of the alkylation of 4-amino-6-chloro-2-thiopyrimidine with the appropriate (R)-1-chloroethyl furo[2,3-c]pyridine intermediates. The successful preparation makes use of an efficient enzymatic kinetic resolution of the … Show more

“…8,13) To synthesize these derivatives, enzymatic enantioselective reduction of their corresponding carbonyl compounds, acetylpyridine derivatives, is one of the most practical and economical strategies. To obtain 1-(pyridyl)ethanol derivatives at high optical purity, a reductase showing high enantioselectivity is necessary.…”

“…However, it is characterized by a less favourable pharmacokinetic profile than PNU-142721 (Wishka et al, 1998b). PNU-142721 possess high antiviral activity against a broad spectrum of HIV-1 variants and a favourable pharmacokinetic profile, including penetration of the blood-brain barrier in the rat.…”
