Bioorganic Studies in AIDS: Synthetic Antifungals Against Pneumocystis carinii Based on the Multivalency Concept

Abstract: We report the syntheses of antifungals containing the novel pharmacophores: oxaziridines, sulfonyloxaziridines, nitrones and nitronyl nitroxides. We hypothesized that multiple copies of the pharmacophore per molecule might be a prerequisite to enhance efficacy against the opportunistic pat...
