Abstract

A series of adamantane derivatives (rimantadine and amantadine) incorporating amino-acid residues are investigated by simplex representation of molecular structure (SiRMS) approach in order to found correlation between chemical structures of investigated compounds and obtained data for antiviral activity and cytotoxicity. The obtained data from QSAR analysis show that adamantane derivatives containing amino acids with short aliphatic non-polar residues in the lateral chain will have good antiviral activity against the tested virus A/H3N2, strain Hong Kong/68 with low cytotoxicity. QSAR experiments and in vitro data also show good correlation and reveal that modified adamantine derivatives including guanidated in the lateral chain amino acid and ?-amino acids as substituents show low to none activity.
