[2-(4-Phenyl-4-piperidinyl)ethyl]amine based CCR5 antagonists : derivatizations at the N-terminal of the piperidine ring

Abstract Several series of CCR5 antagonists have been discovered by derivatization at the N-terminal of the piperidine ring of the core template 2 . Some derivatives exhibited potent inhibition against HIV-1infection. The pharmacokinetic properties of the lead compounds 11a , 14a , 15b , and 16b have been evaluated in vivo.
