Indolyl aryl sulfones bearing the 4,5-difluoro (10) or 5-chloro-4-fluoro (16) substitution pattern at the indolering were potent inhibitors of HIV-1 WT and the NNRTI-resistant strains Y181C and K103N-Y181C.These compounds were highly effective against the 112 and the AB1 strains in lymphocytes and inhibitedat nanomolar concentration the multiplication of the IIIBBa-L strain in macrophages. Compound 16 wasexceptionally potent against RT WT and RTs carrying the K103N, Y181I, and L100I mutations.
