Abstract

By inducing steric activation of the 10CH bond with a 12-acyl group to form a key imine oxime intermediate, 20 novel (10S)-10,12-disubstituted aloperine derivatives were successfully synthesized and assessed for their Antiviral efficacy against HCoV-OC43. Of them, compound 3i exhibited the moderate activities against HCoV-OC43, as well as against the SARS-CoV-2 variant EG.5.1 with the comparable EC50 values of 4.7 and 4.1 μM. A mechanism study revealed that it inhibited the Protease activity of host TMPRSS2 by binding to an allosteric site, rather than the known catalytic center, different from that of camostat. Also, the combination of compound 3i and molnupiravir, as an RdRp inhibitor, showed an additive Antiviral effect against HCoV-OC43. The results provide a new binding mode and lead compound for targeting TMPRSS2, with an advantage in combating broad-spectrum coronavirus.
