Total Synthesis and SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro Inhibition Activities of (±)-Tuaimenal A and Its Derivatives.
The first total synthesis of (±)-tuaimenal A was achieved in six steps starting from sesamol, with an overall yield of 26.4%. The key transformation was a tandem pyridine-catalyzed condensation/6π-electrocyclization sequence, which efficiently constructed the 2H-benzopyran core. Chiral resolution of the racemate was accomplished by using Boc-d-Phe-OH as a chiral auxiliary. Enzymatic inhibition assays revealed that both (+)-tuaimenal A and its enantiomer exhibited comparable inhibitory activity against SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro (the viral main protease). Furthermore, 20 analogues were synthesized, and the preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) was discussed.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Natural Products invites and publishes papers that make substantial and scholarly contributions to the area of natural products research. Contributions may relate to the chemistry and/or biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds or the biology of living systems from which they are obtained.
Specifically, there may be articles that describe secondary metabolites of microorganisms, including antibiotics and mycotoxins; physiologically active compounds from terrestrial and marine plants and animals; biochemical studies, including biosynthesis and microbiological transformations; fermentation and plant tissue culture; the isolation, structure elucidation, and chemical synthesis of novel compounds from nature; and the pharmacology of compounds of natural origin.
When new compounds are reported, manuscripts describing their biological activity are much preferred.
