Materials and Methods:

Chemistry

General procedures for compounds synthesis: The materials and solvents were purchased from

commercial sources and used without further purification. All products were characterized by their

NMR and MS spectra. 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on a 400 MHz, 500 MHz or 600

MHz instrument. Compounds were purified by chromatography with silica gel (300-400 mesh).

Analytical thin layer chromatography (TLC) was HSGF 254 (0.15-0.2 mm thickness). High-

resolution mass spectra (HRMS) were measured on Micromass Ultra Q-TOF spectrometer. All

target compounds possessed a purity of ≥95% as determined by HPLC.

The solution of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (LiHMDS) (94 mL, 1 M in THF) was added

dropwise to a solution of N-Boc-L-glutamic acid dimethyl ester 1 (12.0 g, 43.6 mmol) in THF (100

mL) at -78 °C, then the mixture was stirred at -78 °C for 1 h. Subsequently, bromoacetonitrile

(3.24 mL, 46.6 mmol) was added dropwise to the mixture under the temperature of -78 °C, and

the reaction was kept at -78 °C for additional 4 h. After the reactant was consumed, the reaction

was quenched by saturated NH4Cl solution (40 mL). The reaction mixture was warmed up to room

temperature and extracted with ethyl acetate (50 mL×3). The organic layers were concentrated and

purified by flash column chromatography (petroleum ether/ethyl acetate = 4/1) to give product 2

(7.58 g, 55%) as colorless oil.

Cloning, expression and purification of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro

The full-length gene encoding SARS-CoV-2 Mpro was optimized and synthesized for

Escherichia coli (E. coil) expression (GENEWIZ). The method of cloning and producing authentic

SARS-CoV-2 Mpro was followed by the protocol published for SARS-CoV Mpro previously (18).

Enzymatic activity and inhibition assays

The enzyme activity and inhibition assays have been described previously (22, 25). The

recombinant SARS-CoV-2 Mpro (30 nM at a final concentration) was mixed with serial dilutions

of each compound in 80 µL assay buffer (50 mM Tris–HCl, pH 7.3, 1 mM EDTA) and incubated

for 10 min. The reaction was initiated by adding 40 µL fluorogenic substrate with a final

concentration of 20 µM. After that, the fluorescence signal at 320 nm (excitation)/405 nm

(emission) was immediately measured every 30 s for 10 min with a Bio-Tek Synergy4 plate reader.

The Vmax of reactions added with compounds at various concentrations compared to the reaction

added with DMSO were calculated and used to generate IC50 curves. For each compound, IC50

values against SARS-CoV-2 Mpro were measured at 9 concentrations and three independent

experiments were performed. All experimental data was analyzed using GraphPad Prism software.

Crystallization

SARS-CoV-2 Mpro was incubated with 10 mM 11a or 11b for 30 min and the complex (5

mg/ml) was crystallized by hanging drop vapor diffusion method at 20 °C. The best crystals were

Data collection and structure determination

All data were collected on beamline BL19U1 at Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility

(SSRF) at 100 K and at a wavelength of 0.9785 Å using a Pilatus3 6M image plate detector. Data

integration and scaling were performed using the program XDS (26). The structures were

determined by molecular replacement (MR) with the SARS-CoV Mpro (PDB ID: 2H2Z) as a search

model using the program PHASER (27). The output model from MR was subsequently subjected

to iterative cycles of manual model adjustment with Coot (28) and refinement was finished with

Phenix (29). The inhibitors 11a and 11b was built according to the omit map. Data collection and

structure refinement statistics are summarized in Table S1.

Coordinates and structure factors for SARS-CoV-2 Mpro in complex with the inhibitors 11a

and 11b have been deposited in Protein Data Bank with accession number 6LZE and 6M0K,

respectively.

African green monkey kidney Vero E6 cell line was obtained from American Type Culture

Collection (ATCC, no. 1586) and maintained in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM;

Gibco Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco Invitrogen), 1%

antibiotic/antimycotic (Gibco Invitrogen), at 37 °C in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator. A clinical

isolate of SARS-CoV-2 (nCoV-2019BetaCoV/Wuhan/WIV04/2019) was propagated in Vero E6

cells, and viral titer was determined as described previously (11). All the infection experiments

were performed at biosafety level-3 (BLS-3).

To assess the antiviral activity of compounds, pre-seeded Vero E6 cells (5×104 cells/well)

were treated with the different concentration of the indicated compounds for 1 hour, and then were

infected with SARS-CoV-2 at a MOI of 0.05. Two hours later, the virus-drug mixture was removed

and cells were further cultured with drug containing medium. At 24 h p.i., cell supernatant was

collected and viral titer in supernatant was also detected by plaque assay. Vero E6 cells (1×105

cells/well) were incubated with supernatant. At 1 hour post infection, the supernatant was removed,

and the cells were incubated under an overlay consisting of DMEM supplemented with 2% FBS,

0.9% CMC (Calbiochem) and appropriate concentration of compounds. At 4 days post infection,

the overlay was discarded and cells were fixed for 30 min in 4% polyoxymethylene and stained

with crystal violet working solution. At 24 h p.i., we also monitored intracellular NP using

immunofluorescenc assay and measured viral RNA copy number in cell supernatant using real

time PCR, as described previously(11).

In vivo toxicity study of 11a

Acute toxicity study of 11a

SPF SD rats (age: 7-11 weeks) were half male and half female, which were weighted of 180-

220 g for females and 210-250 g for males. 11a was dissolved in HS15/NaCl (4 mg/mL, 7.5/100,

v/v), and the 11a was administrated once daily via intravenous drip. The SD rats were dosed 24

mg/kg (one rat), 40 mg/kg (ten rats) and 60 mg/kg (four rats) via intravenous drip administrated

for acute toxicity study.

Dose range toxicity study for one week of 11a

SPF SD rats were half male and half female, which were weighted of 180-220 g for females

and 200-240 g for males. Beagle dogs (age: 9-12 months) were half male and half female, which

were weighted of 9-11 kg. Dose range toxicity studies for one week were performed. SD rats were

assigned to four groups which contained one vehicle group (four SD rats) and three intravenous

drip administrated (0.2 mL/min) groups (six SD rats per group), the dosage of 11a were 2, 6, 18

mg/kg, respectively. The Beagle dogs (four dogs) were dosed via intravenous drip administration

(1.5 mL/min) (10 mg/kg (the first day, four dogs), 15 mg/kg (the second day, four dogs), 20 mg/kg

(the third day, four dogs), 25 mg/kg (the fourth day, four dogs), 25 mg/kg (the fifth to seventh

days, randomly two dogs), 40 mg/kg (the fifth to seventh days, other two dogs)). All animals were

clinically observed once a day at least during 7 days for toxic signs which including bodyweight,

food intake, and hematology. At the end of the experiment, samples of heart, liver, spleen, lung,

kidney and administration site were collected.
