title: QSAR of N2-phenylguanidines as inhibitors of herpes simplex virus-1 thymidine kinase.
abstract: Quantitative structure-activity relationships were developed to account for inhibition of Herpes simplex virus type 1 by N2-phenylguanines. It was found that the hydrophobic and especially the steric properties of the substituents determine the relative potencies of the derivatives.
