Meisenheimer Rearrangement of Azetopyridoindoles. VIII. Synthesis and Antiviral Activities of 12-Carbaeudistomin Analogs.

Abstract
Eudistomins, isolated from the colonial tunicate Eudistoma olivaceum, have been a synthetic target due to their strong antiviral activity against Herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) and activities against certain types of tumors in vivo. In order to examine the structure-activity relationship of eudistomins, 12-carbaeudistomin analogs were synthesized and their activities against influenza A and B virus, HSV-1, HSV-2 and human cytomegalovirus were investigated. Among them, racemic 6-methoxy-12-carbaeudistomin showed similar activity to (-)-debromoeudistomin K, synthesized as a control compound.
