Popis: Through high throughput screening, substituted proline sulfonamide 6 was identified as HCV NS5b RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inhibitor. Optimization of various regions of the lead molecule resulted in compounds that displayed good potency and selectivity. The crystal structure of 6 and NS5b polymerase complex confirmed the binding near the active site region. The optimization approach and SAR are discussed in detail.
