Abstract
Novel 2‐phenylquinolones aimed at the Tat–TAR complex were synthesized and tested. Derivatives characterized by precise modifications of the quinolone nucleus and to the side chain of the 2‐phenyl ring allowed a thorough structure–activity study, confirming 2‐phenylquinolone as a suitable scaffold for inhibition of the Tat–TAR interaction.magnified image

## Abstract __TAR RNA is a potential target for AIDS therapy. Ligand‐based virtual screening was performed to retrieve novel scaffolds for RNA‐binding molecules capable of inhibiting the Tat–TAR interaction, which is essential for HIV replication. We used a “fuzzy” pharmacophore approach (SQUID) an
