Norovirus (NV), is the most common cause of acute gastroenteritis worldwide. To date, there is no specific anti-NV drug or vaccine to treat NV infections. In this study, we evaluated the inhibitory effect of different stilbene-based analogs on RNA genome replication of human NV (HNV) using a virus replicon-bearing cell line (HG23). Initial screening of our in-house chemical library against NV led to the identification of a hit containing stilbene scaffold 5 which on initial optimization gave us a vinyl stilbene compound 16c (EC50 = 4.4 μM). Herein we report our structure-activity relationship study of the novel series of vinyl stilbene analogs that inhibits viral RNA genome replication in a human NV-specific manner. Among these newly synthesized compounds, several amide derivatives of vinyl stilbenes exhibited potent anti-NV activity with EC50 values ranging from 1 to 2 μM. A trans-vinyl stilbenoid with an appended substituted piperazine amide (18k), exhibited potent anti-NV activity and also displayed favorable metabolic stability. Compound 18k demonstrated an excellent safety profile, the highest suppressive effect, and was selective for HNV replication via a viral RNA polymerase-independent manner. Its potential host-targeting antiviral mechanism was further supported by specific activation of heat shock factor 1-dependent stress-inducible pathway by 18k. These results suggest that 18k might be a promising lead compound for developing novel NV inhibitors with the novel antiviral mechanism.

The first enantioselective synthesis of the fungal metabolite (+)-O-methylasparvenone was achieved in eight steps and 22% overall yield from inexpensive 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde dimethyl acetal. Key steps include (i) early-stage asymmetric alkynylation of an aromatic aldehyde with a propiolate, (ii) intramolecular Friedel-Crafts acylation, and (iii) site-selective cleavage of an aryl methyl ether.

Reductive metalation of 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde dimethyl acetal followed by reaction with suitable electrophiles is the key step of a reaction sequence leading to the synthesis of naturally occurring 4-alkyl-3,5-dihydroxy-substituted trans-stilbenes

The regioselective replacement of the 4-methoxy group of 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde dimethylacetal by an alkyl group under reductive electron-transfer conditions has been employed as a key step in a new synthesis of 2,5-dialkyl-1,3-dimethoxybenzenes via the corresponding 4-alkyl-3,5-dimethoxybenzaldehydes.
