Disclosed are compounds comprising diaromatic substituted compound residues, namely the anti-viral (anti-HIV) drug delavirdine, covalently attached via a linkage to water-soluble, non-peptidic oligomers, specifically to poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) oligomers. A compound of the invention, when administered by any of a number of administration routes, exhibits advantages over non-oligomer modified diaromatic substituted compounds.
