Chemical synthesis of 3-substituted analogues of remantadine is described. Derivatives IIIb and IIIc when compared with remantadine had not only potent activity against ethalon herpes simplex type 1 virus strain but also were active against herpes virus resistant to aciclovir. Compound IIIc demonstrated virulecidal effect. Combination of IIIc + aciclovir had additive effect against ethalon herpes simplex type 1 virus strain. Investigated 3-substituted analogues demonstrated low activity in the model system of influenzae virus. No antiviral activity was demonstrated in the model system of Syndbys virus (though compounds were evaluated in subtoxic concentrations).
