The layers were separated, water (250 ml) was added to the organic layer and the pH was adjusted to 2.0-3.0 with dilute hydrochloric acid (6N HCl). The layers were separated, the organic layer was washed with aqueous sodium bicarbonate and then with water. The ethyl acetate was distilled off from the mass.

2.2.2. Prodrugs synthesis
General procedure: The synthesis of ester prodrugs was based on previously reportedchemical approach with slight modifications [35]. Corresponding carboxylicacid to generate prodrugs 1-7 (1.59 mmol), 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDCI) (1.59 mmol) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) (0.032 mmol) were dissolved inanhydrous dichloromethane (DCM) (10 mL) and stirred at room temperatureunder N2 for 15 min before adding LPV (0.159 mmol). Thereaction mixture was then allowed to stir overnight and monitored byTLC and LC-MS. The mixture was added to saturated NH4CH3CO2 (30mL), then extracted with ethyl acetate (20 mL × 3). The combinedorganic layers were washed with saturated NaHCO3 (30 mL) and brine(30 mL), then dried over anhydrous MgSO4, filtered, and the solventevaporated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by column chromatographyon silica using a gradient DCM/tetrahydrofuran (THF) 5:1.The purified fractions were pooled and fully evaporated to dryness. Finalcompound (20 mg) was dissolved in DMSO-d6 for NMR analysis. Thedetailed methodology of characterisation of the purified prodrugs isdescribed in Supplementary Material 1.
