We recently described the discovery of oxygenated N-alkyl deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) derivative 7 (CM-10–18) with antiviral activity against dengue virus (DENV) infection both in vitro and in vivo. This imino sugar was promising but had an EC50 against DENV in BHK cells of 6.5 μM, which limited its use in in vivo. Compound 7 presented structural opportunities for activity relationship analysis, which we exploited and report here. These ...
