N-Alkyldeoxynojirimycin derivatives with novel terminal tertiary amide substitution for treatment of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), Dengue, and Tacaribe virus infections

摘要

Novel N-alkyldeoxynojirimycins (NADNJs) with two hydrophobic groups attached to a nitrogen linker on the alkyl chain were designed. A novel NADNJ containing a terminal tertiary carboxamide moiety was discovered that was a potent inhibitor against BVDV. Further optimization resulted in a structurally more stable lead compound 24 with a submicromolar EC50 against BVDV, Dengue, and Tacaribe; and low cytotoxicity.
