Due to emergence of drug resistance and drug tolerability, there is urgent need for discovery of new chemical entity for the treatment of HIV infection. As a part of in-house small molecule drug discovery program for HIV infection, sodium-2-(tert-butoxy)- 2-(5-(2-(2-chloro-6-methylbenzyl)- 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-6-yl)- 4-(4,4-dimethylpiperidin-1-yl)- 2,6-dimethylpyridin-3-yl) acetate (SCMTDDA) was prepared as an intermediate for the synthesis of an API, designed as a HIV-1 integrase inhibitor. Initially, the final compound was isolated as a mixture of rotamers.
