Abstract: A series of ethyl 5-hydroxyindole-3-carboxylates 6a—10r was designed and synthesized. The structures of all the compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, and MS and their anti-hepatitis B virus(HBV) activities were evaluated in 2.2.15 cells. Among them, compound 7g{ethyl 5-hydroxy-2-[(3-methoxyphenylsulfinyl) methyl]-1-methyl-4-[(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)methyl]-1H-indole-3-carboxylate} displays a significant anti-HBV activity, which is more potent than the positive control lamivudine.

Key words: Ethyl 5-hydroxy-1H-indole-3-carboxylates, Synthesis, Anti-hepatitis B virus activity
