Diarylpyrimidines
Diarylpyrimidines and diaryltriazines are two closely related classes of molecules resembling the pyrimidine nucleotides found in DNA. They show great potency in inhibiting the activity of HIV reverse transcriptase.[1][2] Several compounds in this class are currently underdevelopment as the next generation of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors,[3][4] notably a compound called TMC278 expected to receive FDA approval in 2009.[5]
