Abstract :Quinoline moiety is an important scaffold in the field of drug discovery and drug development, with a wide range of pharmacological activities. Quinoline derivatives are potent inhibitors for reverse transcriptase, which is responsible for the conversion of single-stranded viral RNA into double-stranded viral DNA.In the present study, we have designed and synthesized 2 series, namely pyrazoline and pyrimidine containing quinoline derivatives as non nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(NNRTIs);. Eleven compounds were synthesized and characterized by H-1 and C-13 NMR and mass spectrophotometry. The synthesized compounds were also docked on an HIV reverse transcriptase binding site insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PDB: 412P);; most of these compounds showed good binding interactions with the active domain of the receptor. Most of the compounds displayed a docking score higher than those of standard drugs. Among the synthesized quinoline derivatives, compound 4 exhibited the highest docking score insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(-10.675);.
