Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an L-ribofuranosyl type anti-coronavirus compound and a preparation method and application thereof, belonging to the technical field of pharmaceutical chemistry. Background Art
[0002] Coronavirus (English name: Coronavirus) belongs to the order Nidovirales, family Coronaviridae, genus Coronavirus. It is a type of RNA virus with an envelope and a linear single-stranded positive genome. It is a large class of viruses that are widely present in nature. This virus can be seen under an electron microscope with a crown-like outer crown, so it is called Coronavirus (Coronaviridae). In 1975, the Virus Nomenclature Committee officially named the Coronaviridae. It includes rhinovirus, B814 virus, 229E virus, OC43 strain, and those that can infect humans and cause serious respiratory diseases, such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS, SARS is a variant of coronavirus and is the pathogen that causes atypical pneumonia) and the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), etc. The symptoms of infection can range from the common cold to severe lung infection.
[0003] Potential targets of COVID-19 are divided into three categories: structural proteins, non-structural proteins and other coronavirus treatment-related targets. Structural proteins include spike protein (Surface Glycoprotein, Spike Protein), E protein (Envelope protein, E Protein), M protein (membrane protein) and N protein (Nucleocapsid Phosphoprotein, N protein). Non-structural proteins include replicase polyprotein 1ab, 3C-like protease, papain-like protease, NSP12 (RDRP, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase), Helicase, Nsp13 (RNA helicase), Nsp14 (Guanine-N7methyltransferase), Nsp15 (Uridylate-specific endoribonuclease), Nsp16 (2'-O-methyl transferase, 2'-O-methyltransferase). Other coronavirus treatment-related targets are mainly ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2).
[0004] There are three main types of drugs for the treatment of the new coronavirus, each with a different focus and applicable population: small molecule antiviral drugs can be used for patients with mild, moderate and severe symptoms, neutralizing antibodies are mainly used for patients with mild and moderate symptoms, and immunomodulatory drugs are basically only used for patients with severe symptoms. At present, according to different mechanisms of action, the new coronavirus small molecule antiviral drugs mainly include RNA polymerase inhibitors, 3CL protease inhibitors, etc. There are only four new coronavirus treatment small molecule drugs approved worldwide that act on the new coronavirus polymerase (RdRp), including Gilead Sciences' Remdesivir, Molnupiravir jointly developed by Merck and Ridgeback, Azvudine from Henan Real Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and Deuterium Hydrobromide Remidewei (VV116) from Shanghai Wangshi Biopharmaceutical Technology Co., Ltd.

Among them, Molnupiravir is one of the only two small molecule nucleoside anti-new coronavirus inhibitors approved for marketing in the United States, jointly developed by Merck and Ridgeback, and officially introduced and approved for use in China.
[0181] Cytotoxicity test steps:
[0182] Bel7402 cells (1.5*104 / well) were inoculated in a 96-well plate and cultured for 24 hours. After the culture medium was removed, 100 μL / well of the drug solution to be tested, i.e., L-furanosyl anti-coronavirus compound solution (target compound 1, target compound 2, and a mixture of target compound 1 and target compound 2) and monoupiravir solution were added. Two replicate wells were set for each concentration, and an equal volume of culture medium was added to the normal control group. After incubating Bel7402 cells in an incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 48 hours, 15 μL of MTT solution at a concentration of 5 mg / mL was added to each well and incubated for another 4 hours. The supernatant was removed, 100 μL of DMSO was added to each well, and the cells were dissolved by low-speed oscillation. The OD value was measured at 490 nm, and the cell survival rate was calculated by comparing with the cells in the normal group (average OD value of the drug group-blank OD value) / (average OD value of the normal control group-blank OD value)×100%.
[0183] Anti-coronavirus activity test steps:
[0184] Bel7402 cells (2.5*104 / well) were inoculated in 96-well plates and cultured for 24h.

[0186] Table 1 Anti-coronavirus activity and cytotoxicity test results
[0187]
[0188] It can be seen from the results in Table 1 that in the cytotoxicity test, when the drug concentration is lower than 125 μM, in the absence of an infection background, the cell survival rates of the three L-ribofuranose anti-coronavirus compounds, namely, target compound 1, target compound 2, and a mixture of target compound 1 and target compound 2 (wherein the ratio of target compound 1 to target compound 2 in the mixture is 1:1) are all higher than the cell survival rate of the control drug monopiravir, that is, the cytotoxicity of the three L-ribofuranose anti-coronavirus compounds is not obvious, and the toxicity of the three L-ribofuranose anti-coronavirus compounds is lower than that of the control drug monopiravir. Especially at a concentration of 31.25 μM, the cell viability of the three L-ribofuranose anti-coronavirus compounds reached 96.5%, 99.0%, and 97.8%, respectively, while the cell activity of the control drug monopiravir was 70.5%, that is, the cell viability of the test samples was higher than that of the control drug monopiravir, that is, the three L-ribofuranose anti-coronavirus compounds of the present invention have lower cytotoxicity and less harm to the human body compared with the marketed monopiravir.
[0189] In the anti-coronavirus activity efficacy test, under the current high-toxicity background, the three L-furanosyl ribose anti-coronavirus compounds still have certain antiviral activity at a concentration of 0.04 μM, and the cell activities are 72.9%, 75.9%, and 74.4%, respectively, which are higher than 60% of the virus control, and are equivalent to the antiviral activity of the control drug monopiravir. They are worthy of further research and can effectively replace monopiravir. The preparation method of the three L-furanosyl ribose anti-coronavirus compounds of the present invention is simple, mild, and inexpensive, which provides a direction for the development of drugs for the treatment of coronavirus.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solution of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
