ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic has immensely impacted global health causing colossal damage. The recent outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has increased the quest to explore phytochemicals as treatment options. We summarize phytochemicals with activity against various coronaviruses including SARS-CoV and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV). We compiled 705 phytochemical compounds through text mining of 893 PubMed articles. The physicochemical properties including molecular weight, lipophilicity, and the number of hydrogen bond donors and acceptors were determined from the structures of these compounds. A structure-based evaluation of these properties with respect to drug likeness showed that most compounds have a positive score of drug likeness. QSAR analysis showed that 5 descriptors, namely polar surface area, relative polar surface area, number of hydrogen bond donors, solubility, and lipophilicity, are significantly related to IC50. We envisage that these phytochemicals could be further explored for developing new potential therapeutic molecules for COVID-19.
