SYNTHESIS AND INTERFERON—INDUCING ACTIVITY STUDIES ON THE ANTIVIRAL COMPOUNDS OF 2,5,6-TRISUBSTITUTED-4(3H)PYRIMIDINONE DERIVATIVES

In order to search for more ideal antiviral drugs,21 substituted pyriiT1idinone derivatives were designed and synthesized,among which 11 were not reported before. The cheinicalstructures were characterized by elemen tal and spectral analysis. The serum interferon - inducing activity was tested in mice. All 2-amino-5-bromo-6-substituted-4-(3H)pyrimidinone compounds were shown to have interferon inducing activity.The corresponding substituted pyrimidine thiones were less active.The new compounds of 6-sulfophenyl derivatives are soluble in、water, but the interferon-inducing activity are not higher than the original compound of ABPP.
