[Antiviral agents / 9th communication: virustatically active N-(1-adamantyl)-thiourea derivatives based on cyclic secondary amines (author's transl)].

By nucleophilic addition of pyrrolidine (2a), piperidine (2b), 3-hydroxypiperidine (2c), and 4-hydroxypiperidine (2d) on 1-adamantyl-isothiocyanate (1), the N',N'-disubstituted N-(1-adamantyl)-thiourea derivatives 3a, 3b, 3c, and 3d are accessible. Particularly 3d exhibits remarkable antiviral activity vaccinia and herpes virus.
