Abstract

3-(Chloromethyl)coumarins, obtained via acid-catalysed cyclisation of salicylaldehyde-derived Baylis-Hillman adducts, have been treated with propargylamine; reaction of the resulting 3-alkynylmethylcoumarins with azidothymidine (AZT) in the presence of a Cu(I) catalyst has afforded a series of cycloaddition products for evaluation, in their own right, as potential dual-action HIV-1 protease and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, and as scaffolds for further structural elaboration.

Graphical abstractBaylis-Hillman-derived 3-(chloromethyl)coumarins have been elaborated to afford coumarin-AZT conjugates as scaffolds for the development of potential dual-action HIV-1 PR/RT inhibitors.Download full-size image
