In late December 2019, the first cases of COVID-19 emerged as an outbreak in Wuhan, China that later spread vastly around world, evolving into a pandemic and one worst global health crises modern history. The causative agent was identified severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Although several vaccines were authorized for emergency use, constantly emerging new viral mutants limited treatment options drastically highlighted need developing efficient this disease. One most important components to target purpose is main protease (Mpro). This enzyme excellent potential drug, it essential replication has no closely related homologues humans, making its inhibitors unlikely be toxic. Our review describes variety approaches could applied search among plant-derived compounds, including virtual silico screening (a data-driven approach), which structure-based or fragment-guided, classical approach high-throughput screening, antiviral activity cell-based assays. We will focus on classes compounds reported Mpro, phenols polyphenols, alkaloids, terpenoids.
