A series of cytosine derivatives containing a sulfonamide moiety were designed and synthesized, and their antiviral activities against pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV) were systematically evaluated. Then, a three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) model was constructed to study the structure-activity relationship according to the pEC₅₀ of the compounds’ protective activities. Next, compound A32 with preferable antiviral activity on PMMoV was obtained based on the CoMSIA and CoMFA models, with an EC₅₀ of 19.5 μg/mL, which was superior to the template molecule A25 (21.3 μg/mL) and ningnanmycin (214.0 μg/mL). In addition, further studies showed that the antiviral activity of compound A32 against PMMoV was in accord with the up-regulation of proteins expressed in the defense response and carbon fixation in photosynthetic organisms. These results indicated that cytosine derivatives containing a sulfonamide moiety could be used as novel potential antiviral agents for further research and development.
