Most enveloped viruses rely on the host cell endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control (QC) machinery for proper folding of glycoproteins. The key ER α-glucosidases (α-Glu) I and II of the ERQC machinery are attractive targets for developing broad-spectrum antivirals. Iminosugars based on deoxynojirimycin have been extensively studied as ER α-glucosidase inhibitors; however, other glycomimetic compounds are less established. Accordingly, we synthesized a series of N-substituted derivatives of valiolamine, the iminosugar scaffold of type 2 diabetes drug voglibose. To understand the basis for up to 100,000-fold improved inhibitory potency, we determined high-resolution crystal structures of mouse ER α-GluII in complex with valiolamine and 10 derivatives. The structures revealed extensive interactions with all four α-GluII subsites. We further showed that N-substituted valiolamines were active against dengue virus and SARS-CoV-2 in vitro. This study introduces valiolamine-based inhibitors of the ERQC machinery as candidates for developing potential broad-spectrum therapeutics against the existing and emerging viruses.

A tandem IBX-promoted oxidation of primary alcohol to aldehyde and opening of intermediate β,γ-diolcarbonate aldehyde to (E)-γ-hydroxy-α,β-enal has been developed. Remarkably, the carbonate opening delivered exclusively (E)-olefin and no over-oxidation of γ-hydroxy was observed. The method developed has been extended to complete the stereoselective total synthesis of both (S)- and (R)-coriolides and d-xylo- and d-arabino-C-20 guggultetrols.
