Abstract
Sulfonamide derivatives are well known for their antibacterial activity as manifested by ‘Sulfa Drugs’, for example, sulfamethoxazole etc. In addition, they are associated with a large number of pharmacological activities such as anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-oxidant, anti-viral etc. This work has emphasized their application as antiviral agents such as HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), HCV (hepatitis C virus) etc. We have presented here a number of sulfonamide derivatives exhibiting remarkable antiviral potential.
