Abstract

The synthesis and SAR study of a novel class of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) inhibitors are reported. These compounds could be considered as the 6-chloropurines substituted at position 9 with variously substituted bicyclic scaffolds (bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane/ene-norbornane or norbornene). The synthesis and biological evaluation of 31 target compounds are described. Several of the analogues inhibited CVB3 in the low micromolar range (0.66-2muM). Minimal or no cytotoxicity was observed.
