RESUMO
A series of benzyl pyridazinones were evaluated as HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs). Several members of this series showed good activity against the wild-type virus and NNRTI-resistant viruses. The binding of inhibitor 5a to HIV-RT was analyzed by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy. Pharmacokinetic studies of 5a in rat and dog demonstrated that this compound has good oral bioavailability in animal species. The crystal structure of a complex between HIV-RT and inhibitor 4c is also described.

A series of 7-[(5R)-substituted 2-oxo-1-pyrrolidinyl]-heptanoic acids were prepared, their isomeric purity determined, and pharmacologically evaluated. Lactams with affinity for the EP(4) receptor displayed agonist behavior. The lower side-chain of the lactam template could be substituted to afford ligands (e.g., 17, 24, 30, 31, and 33) of high potency and greater than 1000-fold affinity for EP(4) versus the other EP prostanoid receptors.
