Synthesis of 1-[ω-(Bromophenoxy)alkyl]-3-naphthalenylmethyl Derivatives of Uracil and Their Analogues As Probable Inhibitors of Human Cytomegalovirus Replication.

The synthesis of a new series of 1-[ω-(bromophenoxy)alkyl]-uracil derivatives containing in position 3 naphthalen-1-yl-, naphthalen-2-yl-, 1-bromonaphthalen-2-ylmethyl, benzyl, and anthracene 9-methyl fragment was carried out. The antiviral properties of the synthesized compounds were studied against human cytomegalovirus. It was found that the compound that contained a bridge of five methylene groups has a high anti-cytomegalovirus activity in vitro.

Synthesis of 1-[ω-(Bromophenoxy)alkyl]-3-Naphthalenylmethyl Uracil Derivatives and Their Analogues as Probable Inhibitors of Human Cytomegalovirus Replication.

A new series of 1-[ω-(bromophenoxy)alkyl]-uracil derivatives containing naphthalen-1-yl, naphthalen-2-yl, 1-bromonaphthalen-2-ylmethyl, benzyl, and anthracene-9-ylmethyl fragments in position 3 of uracil residue was synthesized. The antiviral properties of the synthesized compounds against human cytomegalovirus were studied. It was found that the compound containing a bridge consisting of five methylene groups exhibits a high anti-cytomegalovirus activity in vitro.

Synthesis and Antiviral Properties of 1-Substituted 3-[ω-(4-Oxoquinazolin-4(3H)-yl)alkyl]uracil Derivatives.

A series of uracil derivatives containing a 4-oxoquinazoline fragment bound to the nitrogen atom N3 of the pyrimidine ring by a short methylene bridge was synthesized to search for new antiviral agents. Some compounds in this series are shown to exhibit high inhibitory activity against human cytomegalovirus and the varicella zoster virus in a HEL cell culture.

2-(2,4-Dioxy-1,2,3,4-Tetrahydropyrimidin-1-yl)-N-(4-Phenoxyphenyl)-Acetamides as a Novel Class of Cytomegalovirus Replication Inhibitors.

A series of novel uracil derivatives, bearing N-(4-phenoxyphenyl)acetamide moiety at N3 of a pyrimidine ring, has been synthesized. Their antiviral activity has been evaluated. It has been found that the novel compounds possess high inhibitory activity against replication of human cytomegalovirus (AD-169 and Davis strains) in HEL cell cultures. In addition, some of the derivatives proved to be inhibitory against varicella zoster virus.
