Nitrogen-Based Heterocyclic Compounds: A Promising Class of Antiviral Agents against Chikungunya Virus

Abstract: Arboviruses, in general, are a global threat due to their morbidity and mortality, which results in an important social and economic impact. Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), one of the most relevant arbovirus currently known, is a re-emergent virus that causes a disease named chikungunya fever, characterized by a severe arthralgia (joint pains) that can persist for several months or years in some individuals. Until now, no vaccine or specific antiviral drug is commercially available. Nitrogen heterocyclic scaffolds … Show more

“…Nitrogen-based heterocyclic systems are commonly found in pharmaceutical agents and natural products, and they have been intensively explored as new bioactive products [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Among them, the indazoles [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ] are favored by synthetic and medicinal chemists, as evidenced by their widespread abundance in pharmaceuticals and natural products.…”

“…Heterocyclic rings are the major component of medicinal chemistry and mostly present in biomolecules like enzyme, vitamins, and natural products. These have shown various biological activities such as insecticidal agents, 1 anti-HIV, 2,3 anti-viral, [4][5][6] and antimycobacterial, [7][8][9] antifungal, [10][11][12] antibacterial, 13-17 antioxidant, [18][19][20][21] anticonvulsant, 22 anti-allergic, [23][24] antibiotic, 25 herbicidal activity, 26,27 anticancer activity, [28][29][30][31] and antidiabetic. 32 Compounds having oxime ether moiety are extremely important not only for their diverse chemistry, but also for their numerous essential biological activities.…”
