Abstrakt: | The search for new methods of antiviral therapy is primarily focused on the use of substances of natural origin. In this context, a triterpene compound, betulin 1, proved to be a good starting point for derivatization. Thirty-eight betulin acid ester derivatives were synthetized, characterized, and tested against DNA and RNA viruses. Several compounds exhibited 4- to 11-fold better activity against Enterovirus E (compound 5 EC Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper.
