The emergence of drug-resistant strains of influenza virus makes exploring new classes of inhibitors that target universally conserved viral targets a highly important goal. The influenza A viral genome is made up of eight single-stranded RNA-negative segments. The RNA promoter, consisting of the conserved sequences at the 3′ and 5′ end of each RNA genomic segment, is universally conserved among influenza A virus strains and in all segments. Previously, we reported on the identification and NMR structure of DPQ (6,7-dimethoxy-2-(1-piperazinyl)-4-quinazolinamine) (compound 1) in complex with the RNA promoter. Here, we report on additional screening and SAR studies with compound 1, including ex vivo anti-influenza activity assays, resulted in improved cellular activity against influenza A virus in the micromolar range.
SUBSTITUTED ACYLPIPERAZINOQUINAZOLINES AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING SAME

, (2008/06/13)
Substituted acylpiperazinoquinazolines of formula I STR1 wherein n is 0 or 1, R represents an alkyl group with 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a benzyl group, and R 1 is a hydrogen atom, a methyl group or a phenyl group. Addition salts of these compounds with inorganic and organic acids are also disclosed. The compounds possess a significant antihypertensive activity. They can be prepared by the reaction of 2-halogeno quinazoline derivatives with the corresponding acylpiperazines, followed (if required) by neutralization of the respective base with a suitable acid to form its pharmaceutically convenient addition salt.The acid addition salts, especially hydrochlorides, are readily soluble in water and give stable, almost neutral aqueous solutions which can be used in parenteral (injectable) and peroral medicinal dosage forms.
