On the structure-activity relationship of antiviral substances.
The significance of the study on structure-activity relationship in the antiviral substances is considered for: 1. directed synthesis of highly active and selective antivirals; 2. elucidation of the mechanism of action of antiviral substances by revealing the chemical structures which determine the inhibition of a given step in the virus growth cycle. The basic trends in conducting directed synthesis of antiviral substances are pointed out: synthesis of new inhibitors with a broad antiviral spectrum, as well as improvement by structural modifications of known ones. The basic methodological approaches in the structure-activity studies are considered. A classification of the available antiviral synthetic substances is presented.
