Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a serious worldwide health problem as drugs (such as lamivudine and adefovir) for treating HBV are still unsatisfactory, due to high recurrence, drug resistance and inevitable side effects. Therefore, there exists a significant medical need to explore novel classes of drugs with different antiviral targets and mechanisms for anti-HBV purposes. Recently, some non-nucleoside HBV inhibitors with specific targets have been obtained from natural sources or prepared by synthesis. These compounds provide useful information for developing novel non-nucleoside compounds as anti-HBV agents.
