Abstract

The FTIR spectra of the solutions of biologically active molecules (screened phenylazomethines) in CCl4 are studied. The role of the OH- and N=C groups in the formation of the intramolecular H bonds is analyzed. The analysis of the FTIR spectra shows that three types of H bonds (O-H…O-H, O-H…N=C, and O-H…O-H…N=C) are possible in the molecules under study. A correlation of the H-bond formation in the phenylazomethine molecules and the antivirus properties of such molecules is revealed. The antivirus activity is observed for molecules that exhibit intramolecular O-H…O-H…N=C bonds in the absence of free hydroxyls. The antivirus activity decreases when the molecule contains additional OH groups that are not involved in H bonds.
