Abstract

A variety of analogues and derivatives of phenyl glycosides were synthesized for examination of their biological activities and of the relationship between structure and antiviral activity. For antiviral activity, a 6-deoxy-6-halogeno- d-glucose residue was most suitable for the carbohydrate moiety and p-alkylphenyl groups for the aglycone moiety. Based on these results, p-( sec- butyl)phenyl 6-chloro-6-deoxy-β- d glucopyranoside and p-( sec-butyl)phenyl 6-deoxy-6-iodo-β d-glucopyranoside were prepared, and the former compound was found to be the most potent antiviral substance, in this series, against influenza and Herpes simplex virus. The anomeric configuration of phenyl glycosides did not contribute to the antiviral activity.
