Novel hepatitis C virus replicon inhibitors: synthesis and structure-activity relationships of fused pyrimidine derivatives

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2012 Mar 15;22(6):2212-5. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2012.01.096. Epub 2012 Feb 2.

Abstract

The synthesis of several pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine and pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine analogs is described with one such analog possessing subnanomolar potency in both genotype 1a and 1b cell culture HCV replicon assays.
