Abstract

The synthesis of novel 1-{[2-(phenoxy)ethoxy]methyl}uracil derivatives with different substituents in positions  and 6 of the pyrimidine ring has been carried out. It has been shown that the  alkylation  of trimethylsilyl derivatives of uracil with 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)- and 2-(4-methylphenoxy)ethoxymethyl chloride under Hilbert–Johnson reaction conditions  gives  N(1)-substitution products. It was found that the 1-{[2-(phenoxy)ethoxy]methyl}uracil derivatives show viral inhibition properties relative to  human immunodeficiency  type  1  virus in vitro. The most active compounds are 5-bromo-6-methyluracil derivatives which suppress viral reproduction by 50% at 7.2 and 7.8 micromolar concentrations.
