Published: December 2017

In this report, the originally proposed rupestonic acid (5) and pechueloic acid (3) were efficiently synthesized. The chiral lactone 13, recycled from the degradation of saponin glycosides, was utilized to prepare the key chiral fragment 11. During the exploration of this convergent assembly strategy, the ring-closing metathesis (RCM), SmI-prompted intermolecular addition, and [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement proved to be effective transformations for the synthesis of subunits.

Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is not only the biomarker of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and expression activity in hepatocytes, but it also contributes to viral specific T cell exhaustion and HBV persistent infection. Therefore, anti-HBV therapies targeting HBsAg to achieve HBsAg loss are key approaches for an HBV functional cure. In this study, we found that YZH-106, a rupestonic acid derivative, inhibited HBsAg secretion and viral replication.

Given the limitations of existing antiviral drugs and vaccines, there is still an urgent need for new anti-influenza drugs. CAM106, a rupestonic acid derivative, was studied for its potent antiviral activity and showed a favorable inhibitory effect on influenza virus replication. However, many gaps exist in preclinical studies of CAM106.
