Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an international challenge. Since the discovery of NS5A direct-acting antivirals, researchers turned their attention to pursue novel NS5A inhibitors with optimized design and structure. Herein we explore highly potent hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5A inhibitors; the novel analogs share a common symmetrical prolinamide 2,7-diaminofluorene scaffold. Modification of the 2,7-diaminofluorene backbone included the use of (S)-prolinamide or its isostere (S,R)-piperidine-3-caboxamide, both bearing different amino acid residues with terminal carbamate groups. Compound 26 exhibited potent inhibitory activity against HCV genotype (GT) 1b (effective concentration (EC50) = 36 pM and a selectivity index of >2.78 × 106). Compound 26 showed high selectivity on GT 1b versus GT 4a. Interestingly, it showed a significant antiviral effect against GT 3a (EC50 = 1.2 nM). The structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis revealed that picomolar inhibitory activity was attained with the use of S-prolinamide capped with R- isoleucine or R-phenylglycine residues bearing a terminal alkyl carbamate group.

Enantioselective inclusion of α-amino acids with crystals of α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) has been achieved by converting the amino acids into sulfonate salts with pyrene-1-sulfonic acid (PyS). For example, crystals of α-CD selectively include L-leucine/PyS (1:1) salt in a host/guest ratio of ~1 with 92%ee from a solution of the racemic salt in ethanol/N-methylformamide (91:9) at 40 °C. Under conditions optimized for individual amino acids, the PyS salts of valine, phenylalanine, and methionine are also included with good enantioselectivities (up to 86%ee). Mechanistic studies for the inclusion of leucine/PyS salt reveals that the enantioselectivity originates from the difference in stability between the inclusion complexes of D- and L-leucine/PyS salts with α-CD in crystals.
