Cathepsin L is a key host cysteine protease utilized by coronaviruses for cell entry and is a promising drug target for novel antivirals against SARS-CoV-2. The marine natural product gallinamide A and several synthetic analogues were identified as potent inhibitors of cathepsin L with IC50 values in the picomolar range. Lead molecules possessed selectivity over other cathepsins and alternative host proteases involved in viral entry. Gallinamide A directly interacted with cathepsin L in cells and, together with two lead analogues, potently inhibited SARS-CoV-2 infection in vitro, with EC50 values in the nanomolar range. Reduced antiviral activity was observed in cells overexpressing transmembrane protease, serine 2 (TMPRSS2); however, a synergistic improvement in antiviral activity was achieved when combined with a TMPRSS2 inhibitor. These data highlight the potential of cathepsin L as a COVID-19 drug target as well as the likely need to inhibit multiple routes of viral entry to achieve efficacy.

The invention discloses a hydroxypyridone [1, a-b] [1,5] triazepine derivatives as well as preparation and application thereof. Experiments prove that the hydroxypyridinone [1, 2-b] [1,triazepine derivatives (general formula I) have a good inhibition effect on the RNA polymerase activity of influenza A virus RNA, and can be used as an influenza virus RNA polymerase inhibitor to treat influenza caused by influenza virus. General Formula I is as follows. (by machine translation)

Gallinamide A, originally isolated with a modest antimalarial activity, was subsequently reisolated and characterized as a potent, selective, and irreversible inhibitor of the human cysteine protease cathepsin L. Molecular docking identified potential modifications to improve binding, which were synthesized as a suite of analogs. Resultingly, this current study produced the most potent gallinamide analog yet tested against cathepsin L (10, Ki = 0.0937 ± 0.01 nM and kinact/Ki = 8 730 000). From a protein structure and substrate preference perspective, cruzain, an essential Trypanosoma cruzi cysteine protease, is highly homologous. Our investigations revealed that gallinamide and its analogs potently inhibit cruzain and are exquisitely toxic toward T. cruzi in the intracellular amastigote stage. The most active compound, 5, had an IC50 = 5.1 ± 1.4 nM, but was relatively inactive to both the epimastigote (insect stage) and the host cell, and thus represents a new candidate for the treatment of Chagas disease.

Diastereoselective addition of nitromethane to Boc-D-Phe-H in the presence of sodium hydride in diethyl ether/hexane containing 15-crown-5 and subsequent N,O-protection with 2,2-dimethoxypropane gave trans-oxazolidine in a diastereomeric ratio of >16:1. T

The piperazine heterocycle is broadly exploited in FDA-approved drugs and biologically active compounds, but its chemical diversity is usually limited to ring nitrogen substitutions, leaving the four carbon atoms underutilized. Using an efficient six-step synthesis, chiral amino acids were transformed into 3-substituted piperazine-2-acetic acid esters as diastereomeric mixtures whose cis and trans products (dr 0.56 a? 2.2:1, respectively) could be chromatographically separated. From five amino acids (both antipodes) was obtained a complete matrix of 20 monoprotected chiral 2,3-disubstituted piperazines, each as a single absolute stereoisomer, all but one in multigram quantities. In keeping with our overall purpose of constructing more Csp3-enriched compound libraries for drug discovery, these diverse and versatile piperazines can be functionalized on either nitrogen atom, allowing them to be used as scaffolds for parallel library synthesis and as intermediates for the production of novel piperazine compounds.

Triazole ureas constitute a versatile class of irreversible inhibitors that target serine hydrolases in both cells and animal models. We have previously reported that triazole ureas can act as selective and CNS-active inhibitors for diacylglycerol lipases (DAGLs), enzymes responsible for the biosynthesis of 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) that activates cannabinoid CB1 receptor. Here, we report the enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis and structure-activity relationship studies. We found that 2,4-substituted triazole ureas with a biphenylmethanol group provided the most optimal scaffold. Introduction of a chiral ether substituent on the 5-position of the piperidine ring provided ultrapotent inhibitor 38 (DH376) with picomolar activity. Compound 38 temporarily reduces fasting-induced refeeding of mice, thereby emulating the effect of cannabinoid CB1-receptor inverse agonists. This was mirrored by 39 (DO34) but also by the negative control compound 40 (DO53) (which does not inhibit DAGL), which indicates the triazole ureas may affect the energy balance in mice through multiple molecular targets.

Rhodium complexes coordinated by Chenphos are very effective catalysts for the enantioselective hydrogenation of α-aryloxy- and α-alkoxy-substituted α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids under mild conditions in CF3CH2OH. The catalytic system could be successfully employed in building the core structure of a new FDA approved drug LCZ 696.
