MKC-442 (6-benzyl-1-(ethoxymethyl)-5-isopropyl-uracil) is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT). Emivirine structurally is a nucleoside analog (NRTI) molecule, but it functions as a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI). Emivirine had reached phase 3 clinical trials for the treatment of HIV-1 infections before its further development was stopped.
