Abstract
Chemical modifications were performed on hydroxyl groups at C-11,23,24,25 positions and C-13(17) double bond of alisol A for structure–activity relationship study. Forty-one derivatives of alisol A were synthesized and assayed for their in vitro anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) activities and cytotoxicities. Of them, 14 compounds were active against HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) and HBV e antigen (HBeAg) secretion in HepG 2.2.15 cells, and the most promising compound 25 exhibited high activities against secretion of HBsAg (IC 50 = 0.028 mM), HBeAg (IC 50 = 0.027 mM) and remarkable selective indices (SI HBsAg >90, SI HBeAg >93).
