SARS CoV 3CL<sup>pro</sup> is known to be a promising target for development of therapeutic agents against the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). A quinolinone compound <b>1</b> was selected via virtual screening, and it was synthetized and tested for enzymatic inhibition <i>in vitro</i>. Compound <b>1</b> showed potent inhibitory activity (IC<sub>50</sub>=0.44 µmol/L) toward SARS CoV 3CL<sup>pro</sup>. Further work on a series of quinolinone derivatives resulted in the discovery of the m ...[more]
