Synthesis and Anti-HCV Activity of 4-Hydroxyamino α-Pyranone Carboxamide Analogues
摘要:
High genetic variability in hepatitis C virus (HCV), emergence of drug resistant viruses and side effects demand the requirement for development of new scaffolds to show an alternate mechanism. Herein, we report discovery of new scaffold I based on 4-hydroxyamino alpha-pyranone carboxamide as promising anti-HCV agents. A comprehensive structure activity relationship (SAR) was explored with several newly synthesized compounds. In all promising compounds (17-19, 21-22, 24-25, and 49) with EC50 ranging 0.15 to 0.40 mu M, the aryl group at C-6 position of alpha-pyranone were unsubstituted. In particular, 25 demonstrated potential anti-HCV activity with EC50 of 0.18 mu M in cell based HCV replicon system with lower cytotoxicity (CC50 > 20 mu M) and provided a new scaffold for anti-HCV drug development. Further investigations, including biochemical characterization, are yet to be performed to elucidate its possible mode of action.
