• PubMed Abstract: 
  

  Development of SAR at the C2 position of indole lead 1, a palm site inhibitor of HCV NS5B polymerase (NS5B IC(50)=0.053μM, replicon EC(50)=4.8μM), is described. Initial screening identified an acyl sulfonamide moiety as an isostere for the C2 carboxylic acid group. Further SAR investigation resulted in identification of acyl sufonamide analog 7q (NS5B IC(50)=0.039μM, replicon EC(50)=0.011μM) with >100-fold improved replicon activity.
