An effective technique for one-stage synthesis of new polycyclic nitrogen-containing compounds has been developed. The procedure involves refluxing mixtures of camphoric acid with aliphatic or aromatic diamine without catalysts. In cases where the starting amine has a low boiling point (less than 200 °C), phenol is used as a solvent, as it is the most optimal one for obtaining products with good yields. It has been shown that the use of Lewis acids as catalysts reduces the yield of the reaction products. A set of compounds have been synthesized, which can be attributed to synthetic analogues of alkaloids. In vitro screening for activity influenza virus A was carried out for the obtained compounds. The synthesized quinazolinelike agent 14 has inhibitory activity against different strains of influenza viruses.
The reaction of 5-aryl-NH-tetrazoles with adamantan-1-ol in concentrated sulfuric acid proceeds regioselectively with the formation of the corresponding 2-adamantyl-5-aryl-2H-tetrazoles. Nitration of these compounds leads to 2-(adamantan-1-yl)-5-(3-nitroaryl)-2Htetrazoles. The structures and composition of the obtained novel 2-adamantyl-5-aryltetrazoles were proven by IR spectroscopy, 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and also by X-ray structural analysis. According to the simultaneous thermal analysis data, the obtained compounds are thermally stable up to a temperature of about 150°C. In vitro studies have shown that some of the 2-adamantyl-5-aryltetrazoles exhibit moderate inhibitory activity against influenza A (H1N1) virus. The antiviral selectivity index (SI) of 2-[2-(adamantan-1-yl)-2H-tetrazol-5-yl]-6-bromo-4-nitroaniline is significantly higher (SI 11) than that of the reference drug rimantadine (SI 5).
An azo coupling reaction of α-nitro ketones with 5-diazoazoles was used to obtain 4-alkyl-3-nitro-1,4-dihydroazolo[5,1-

][1,2,4]triazines, which were characterized with respect to their antiviral activity against influenza and Coxsackie B3 viruses.

Nonannulated tetrazolylpyrimidines in the structure of which the heterocyclic fragments are separated by hydrazinocarbonylmethyl, methylpyrazolyl groups or a sulfur atom were synthesized. Some of these compounds showed moderate in vitro activity against H1N1 subtype of influenza A virus. The selectivity index of the anti-influenza action of {5-[(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-yl)sulfanyl]-1H-tetrazol-1-yl}acetic acid, which has very low cytotoxicity, was twice as high as the selectivity index of the reference drug rimantadine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
