Abstract
Enteroviruses (EV) are a group of positive-strand RNA (+RNA) viruses that include many important human pathogens (e.g. poliovirus, coxsackievirus, echovirus, numbered enteroviruses and rhinoviruses). Fluoxetine was identified in drug repurposing screens as potent inhibitor of enterovirus B and enterovirus D replication. In this paper we are reporting the synthesis and the antiviral effect of a series of fluoxetine analogues. The results obtained offer a preliminary insight into the structure-activity relationship of its chemical scaffold and confirm the importance of the chiral configuration. We identified a racemic fluoxetine analogue, 2b, which showed a similar antiviral activity compared to (S)-fluoxetine. Investigating the stereochemistry of 2b revealed that the S-enantiomer exerts potent antiviral activity and increased the antiviral spectrum compared to the racemic mixture of 2b. In line with the observed antiviral effect, the S-enantiomer displayed a dose-dependent shift in the melting temperature in thermal shift assays, indicative for direct binding to the recombinant 2C protein.
