Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of N-carboxyphenylpyrrole derivatives as potent HIV fusion inhibitors targeting gp41.

TL;DR: The most active compound, N-(3-carboxy-4-hydroxy)phenyl-2,5-dimethylpyrrole (A(12), partially occupied the deep hydrophobic pocket, suggesting that enlarging the molecular size of A(12) could improve its binding affinity and anti-HIV-1 activity for further development as a small-molecule HIV fusion and entry inhibitor.
