Abstract

Following the antiviral screening of a wide series of new angular and linear N-tricyclic systems both in silico and in vitro, the [4, 7] phenantroline nucleus emerged as a new ring system endowed with activity against viruses containing single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genomes (ssRNA+). Here, we report our new pathway to the synthesis of this nucleus and of several related derivatives, as well as the results of both cell-based antiviral assays ...
