Thirty unreported indole derivatives containing dithioacetal moiety were synthesized and evaluated for anti-plant viral activity. Bioassay results displayed that some of the target compounds showed better activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) than the commercial Ribavirin in vivo. In particular, anti-TMV curative, protective and inactivating activity of 4p were 55.1, 57.2, and 80.3%, respectively, and EC value for inactivating activity was 88.5 μg/mL. The observation of transmission electron microscope showed that 4p may have a certain destructive effect on TMV particles. To further study, microscale thermophoresis analysis result also demonstrated that 4p powerfully interacted with TMV coat protein in vitro. Hence, this study provides a strong evidence suporting that indole derivatives might be applied as new antiviral agents.
合成了 30 种含有二硫缩醛部分的未报告吲哚衍生物,并评估了它们的抗植物病毒活性。生物测定结果表明,一些目标化合物在体内对烟草花叶病毒(TMV)的活性优于商业利巴韦林。特别是,化合物 4p 对 TMV 的治疗、保护和失活活性分别为 55.1%、57.2%和 80.3%,失活活性的 EC 值为 88.5μg/mL。透射电子显微镜观察表明,4p 可能对 TMV 颗粒有一定的破坏作用。进一步研究,微量热泳动分析结果也表明,4p 能够在体外与 TMV 外壳蛋白强力相互作用。因此,这项研究提供了有力的证据支持,表明吲哚衍生物可能被用作新型抗病毒药物。
