We recently described the synthesis and the antiviral activity of the compounds 5-phenyl-3-(4-cyano-5-phenylisothiazol-3-yl) disulphanyl-4-isothiazolecarbonitrile and S-(4-cyano-5-phenylisothiazol-3-yl)-O-ethyl thiocarbonate, which were found to be effective against both HIV-1 (IIIB) and HIV-2 (ROD. We have now evaluated these compounds against both RNA and DNA viruses, obtaining high selectivity indexes for poliovirus 1 (SI: 223 and 828, respectively) and Echovirus 9 (SI: 334 and 200, respectively). In our previous studies, 3-methylthio-5-(4-OBn-phenyl)-4-isothiazolecarbonitrile was found to exhibit a broad spectrum of action against picornaviruses , we therefore selected this compound and S-(4-cyano-5-phenylisothiazol-3-yl)-O-ethyl thiocarbonate as the model for the synthesis of a new isothiazole derivative, S[4-cyano-5-(4-OBn-phenyl)isothiazol-3-yl]-O-ethyl thiocarbonate. This compound was evaluated against picornaviruses, measles virus, HIV-1 (IIIB) and HIV-2 (ROD), and some DNA viruses (adenovirus type 2 and herpes simplex virus type 1). The compound was shown to be active against rhinoviruses 2, 39, 86 and 89, Coxsackie B1 and measles virus.

Abstract
We recently described the synthesis and the antiviral activity of the compounds 5-phenyl-3-(4-cyano-5-phenylisothiazol-3-yl) disulphanyl-4-isothiazolecarbonitrile and S-(4-cyano-5-phenylisothiazol-3-yl)-O-ethyl thiocarbonate, which were found to be effective against both HIV-1 (IIIB) and HIV-2 (ROD. We have now evaluated these compounds against both RNA and DNA viruses, obtaining high selectivity indexes for poliovirus 1 (SI: 223 and 828, respectively) and Echovirus 9 (SI: 334 and 200, respectively). In our previous studies, 3-methylthio-5-(4-OBn-phenyl)-4-isothiazolecarbonitrile was found to exhibit a broad spectrum of action against picornaviruses , we therefore selected this compound and S-(4-cyano-5-phenylisothiazol-3-yl)-O-ethyl thiocarbonate as the model for the synthesis of a new isothiazole derivative, S[4-cyano-5-(4-OBn-phenyl)isothiazol-3-yl]-O-ethyl thiocarbonate. This compound was evaluated against picornaviruses, measles virus, HIV-1 (IIIB) and HIV-2 (ROD), and some DNA viruses (adenovirus type 2 and herpes simplex virus type 1). The compound was shown to be active against rhinoviruses 2, 39, 86 and 89, Coxsackie B1 and measles virus.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
