Abstract :
The synthesis and antiviral evaluation of unsymmetrical indolocarbazole derivatives of Arcyriaflavin A, substituted with a range of alkyl groups at the indole nitrogen, is described. Structure–activity relationships in this series against human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) replication in cell culture are reported. Compound 4b was identified as potent inhibitor of HCMV (IC50=19 nM), which retained activity against a range of HCMV strains including ganciclovir resistant isolates.
