A series of novel 6-naphthyloxy substituted DATA analogues bearing different substituents on the C-6 position of triazine ring were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro anti-HIV activity in MT-4 cells. The results demonstrated that most of the compounds in this series are potent activity against HIV-1 with moderate to high selectivity. Among these analogues, two compounds exhibited excellent effect in inhibiting HIV-1 replication at nanomolar concentration (for compound 9h: IC(50)=9.3 nM, SI=15,385; for compound 9i: IC(50)=9.4 nM, SI=14,094), which are about 15-fold more active than nevirapine. In addition, several compounds are active against both HIV-1 and HIV-2, whose mechanism may be different from typical NNRTIs.
