    Abstract:
    A series of novel or known water-soluble derivatives of chiral gossypol were synthesized and screened in vitro for their anti-HIV-1 activity. (-)-gossypol derivative was more active against HIV-1 than the corresponding (+)-gossypol derivative, respectively. Among these derivatives, d-glucosamine derivative of (-)-gossypol, oligopeptide derivative of (-)-gossypol and taurine derivative of (-)-gossypol, such as compounds 1a, 3a and 14a, showed significant inhibitory activities against HIV-1 replication, HIV-1 mediated cell-cell fusion and HIV gp41 6-helix bundle formation as some amino acid derivatives of (-)-gossypol.
