Abstract
4,5,6,7-Tetrahydro-5-methylimidazo[4,5,1-jk][1,4]benzodiazepin-2(1 H)-ones (TIBO), 1, have been shown to significantly inhibit HIV-1 replication, as reported in detail in our prior publications. Since our earlier reports, we have modified the TIBO structures 1 by removing the 5-membered ring of 1, generating 1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-ones (TBO), 4, a bicyclic series of compounds. Although compounds 4 possess modest activity when compared to TIBO analogues 1, they clearly demonstrated significant anti-HIV-1 activity.
