Inhibitors targeting the entry stage of influenza viruses are a hot spot in the development of anti-influenza drugs. Our previous studies showed that oleanolic acid (OA) C28 glycoconjugates displayed strong anti-influenza virus activity. In this paper, a series of oleanolic acid C3 glycoconjugates 7a~14c were designed and synthesized via copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction. The anti-influenza activities of all these compounds were evaluatedin vitro. Among them, oleanane-12-enyl-28-benzyloxycarbonyl-3-O-(4-methylene-1,2,3-triazole-1-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-galactoside)) (12a) showed the strongest activity with an IC50 of 12.45 µmol•L –1, and no obvious cytotoxic effect on MDCK cells was observed at 100 µmol•L –1. Hemagglutination inhibition and molecular docking experiments indicated that compound 12a might target viral envelope hemagglutinin (HA), thus inhibiting the attachment of viruses to host cells. This study improved the structure-activity relationships of oleanolic acid and its derivatives against influenza virus, and provided a basis for further research on anti-virus by these natural products.
