Abstract
A series of conjugates combining a pyrimidine and a quinolone moiety were designed and synthesized. The assay results show that these compounds demonstrate both anti-RT activity and anti-IN activity and therefore provide a useful scaffold for identifying inhibitors with balanced dual activities.
