Discovery of potent HIV-1 NNRTIs by CuAAC click-chemistry-based miniaturized synthesis, rapid screening and structure optimization

In addressing the urgent need for novel HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) to combat drug resistance, we employed CuAAC click chemistry to construct a diverse 312-member diarylpyrimidine (DAPY) derivative library. This rapid synthesis approach facilitated the identification of A6N36, demonstrating exceptional HIV-1 RT inhibitory activity. Moreover, it was demonstrated with EC
