Design, Synthesis, and Bioactivity Evaluation of Novel Isoxazole-Amide Derivatives Containing an Acylhydrazone Moiety as New Active Antiviral Agents
As a continuation of our efforts to discover and develop “me-better” active molecules, in this study, a series of novel isoxazole-amide derivatives containing an acylhydrazone moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their antiviral activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV)...
