ABSTRACT In an attempt to develop potent anti-HIV drugs, 20 andrographolide derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their in vitro anti-HIV activity. The screening results revealed that five compounds showed potent anti-HIV activities with therapeutic indices (TI) above 10. The most promising compound 6f shows a significant TI close to 34.07, with the potency to be a new lead.
