A simple and efficient methodology for the parallel solution-phase synthesis has been set up to obtain a series of thiouracils, in turn selectively S-benzylated under microwave irradiation to give new S-DABOs. Biological screening led to the identification of compounds with nanomolar activity toward both the highly purified recombinant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT) enzyme (wild-type and mutants) and wild- ...
