The interaction of N-(2-bromoethyl)- and N-(3-bromopropyl)phthalimides with 2-thiouracils substituted at position 6 was studied in alkaline medium, providing S-monoamidoalkylation products and, depending on the substituents, the products of S,O(4)- and S,N(3)-diamidoalkylation. Among the obtained compounds, only 2-[2-(phthalimidoethyl)sulfanyl]-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidin-4(3H)-one showed in vitro antiHIV-1 and antiHIV-2 activity at micromolar concentration range.
