Synthesis of analogues of flazin, in particular, flazinamide, as promising Anti-HIV agents

Flazin isolated from the fruiting bodies of Suillus granulatus was found to possess weak anti-HIV activity (EC50=2.36 mu m, TI= 12.1). To establish a SAR study, 46 flazin analogues were synthesized, and their anti-HIV activities were evaluated in vitro. A
