Perspectives for antivirals to limit SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19) [PDF]
Compared with vaccines, antivirals for curbing COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2 infection) have been developed at a much lower pace. Favipiravir has proven efficacious (in hamsters) but only at a very high dose which may not be feasible in humans.

A Stereoselective Synthesis of 4′‐α‐Fluoro‐methyl Carbocyclic Nucleoside Analogs
The article reports the synthesis of 4′‐fluoro‐methyl‐carbocyclic nucleoside analogs. The described procedure may open new synthetic avenues for the derivatization at the 4′‐position of carbocyclic nucleosides. 4′‐modified nucleoside analogs have not been well explored for biological activities, and their evaluation as antiviral and anticancer agents ...

Repurposing clinically available drugs and therapies for pathogenic targets to combat SARS‐CoV‐2
In this review, authors provide a comprehensive overview of various identified pathogenic targets and pathways, as well as corresponding repurposed approved/clinical drugs and their potential against COVID‐19. Moreover, authors summarizenumerous potential pathogenic targets associated with viral life cycle and virus–host cell communication, repurposed ...

Gossypol Broadly Inhibits Coronaviruses by Targeting RNA‐Dependent RNA Polymerases
Gossypol is identified as an effective inhibitor against SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA‐dependent RNA polymerases. It exhibits excellent antiviral activity against SARS‐CoV‐2 and its variants of concern as well as all examined viruses from the four main phylogenetic branches of coronaviruses, which makes gossypol a novel broad‐spectrum anti‐coronavirus inhibitor that ...
