The series of 1-(1,3-dihydroxy-2-propoxy)methylpyrroles 2a-o were prepared in good overall yields according to Scheme I. When evaluated for antiviral activity against HIV-1, only compounds of the triphenyl series (R3 = NH2, N3, Br) were found to inhibit the HIV-1 replication at concentrations that were very not cytotoxic for MT-4 cells, with selectivity index 1.5-9.3. None of these compounds showed antibacterial or antifungal activity.
