Design, synthesis, antiviral activity and mode of action of phenanthrene-containing N-heterocyclic compounds inspired by the phenanthroindolizidine alkaloid antofine.
The phenanthroindolizidine alkaloid antofine and its analogues have excellent antiviral activity against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). To simplify the structure and the synthesis of the phenanthroindolizidine alkaloid, a series of phenanthrene-containing N-heterocyclic compounds (compounds 1 to 33) were designed and synthesised, based on the intermolecular interaction of antofine and TMV RNA, and systematically evaluated for their anti-TMV activity.. Most of these compounds exhibited good to reasonable anti-TMV activity. The optimum compounds 5, 12 and 21 displayed higher activity than the lead compound antofine and commercial ribavirin. Compound 12 was chosen for field trials of antiviral efficacy against TMV, and was found to exhibit better activity than control plant virus inhibitors. Compounds 5 and 12 were chosen for mode of action studies. The changes in fluorescence intensity of compounds 5 and 12 on separated TMV RNA showed that these small molecules can also bind to TMV RNA, but the mode is very different from that of antofine.. The compounds combining phenanthrene and an N-heterocyclic ring could maintain the anti-TMV activity of phenanthroindolizidines, but their modes of action are different from that of antofine. The present study lays a good foundation for us to find more efficient anti-plant virus reagents.

Collective asymmetric synthesis of (-)-antofine, (-)-cryptopleurine, (-)-tylophorine, and (-)-tylocrebrine with tert-butanesulfinamide as a chiral auxiliary.
A collective asymmetric synthesis of phenanthroindolizidine and phenanthroquinolizidine alkaloids (-)-antofine, (-)-cryptopleurine, (-)-tylophorine, and (-)-tylocrebrine was achieved by means of a reaction sequence involving efficient generation of chiral homoallylic amine intermediates by asymmetric allylation of the corresponding tert-butanesulfinyl imine. From these intermediates, the pyrrolidine and piperidine rings were constructed by means of an intramolecular SN2 substitution reaction and a ring-closing metathesis reaction, respectively. The unusual C5-methoxy-substituted phenanthrene moiety of (-)-tylocrebrine was generated by means of an InCl3-catalyzed cycloisomerization reaction of an o-propargylbiaryl compound.

D and E rings may not be indispensable for antofine: discovery of phenanthrene and alkylamine chain containing antofine derivatives as novel antiviral agents against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) based on interaction of antofine and TMV RNA.
On the basis of the interaction of antofine and tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) RNA, a series of phenanthrene and alkylamine chain containing antofine derivatives 1-41 were designed, synthesized, and systematically evaluated for their antiviral activity against TMV. The results showed that most of these compounds exhibited good to excellent anti-TMV activity, which indicated that the D and E rings of antofine may not be indispensable. Phenanthrene is important for these compounds, but not the more the better. Phenanthrene, benzene rings, and alkylamine chain containing compounds exhibited good antiviral activity. The optimum compounds, 10, 18, and 19, displayed higher activity than precursor antofine and commercial ribavirin, thus emerging as new lead compounds. The novel concise structure provides another new template for antiviral studies.

Design, synthesis, and antiviral activity evaluation of phenanthrene-based antofine derivatives.
On the basis of our previous structure-activity relationship (SAR) and antiviral mechanism studies, a series of phenanthrene-based antofine derivatives (1-12 and 18-50) were designed targeting tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) RNA and synthesized and systematically evaluated for their antiviral activity against TMV. The bioassay results showed that most of these compounds exhibited good to excellent in vivo anti-TMV activity, of which compounds 19 and 27 displayed higher activity than commercial Ribavirin, thus emerging as potential inhibitors of plant virus. The novel concise structure provides another new template for antiviral studies.
