Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) represent an indispensable part of anti-HIV-1 therapy. To discover novel HIV-1 NNRTIs with increased drug resistance profiles and improved pharmacokinetic (PK) properties, a series of novel diarylpyrimidine derivatives were generated via the cocrystal structure-based drug design strategy. Among them,36aexhibited outstanding antiviral activity against HIV-1 IIIB and a panel of mutant strains (L100I, K103N, Y181C, Y188L, E138K, F227L + V106A, and RES056), with EC50ranging from 2.22 to 53.3 nM. Besides,36awas identified with higher binding affinity (KD= 2.50 μM) and inhibitory activity (IC50= 0.03 μM) to HIV-1 RT. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation were performed to rationalize the design and the improved drug resistance of these novel inhibitors. Additionally,36a·HClexhibited favorable PK (T1/2= 5.12 h,F= 12.1%) and safety properties (LD50> 2000 mg/kg). All these suggested that36a·HClmay serve as a novel drug candidate anti-HIV-1 therapy.
