✦ Synopsis


The structure-activity relationships of a series of 4-amino and guanidino-4H-pyran-2carboxylic acid 6-carboxamides are described. These compounds represent a new class of inhibitor of influenza sialidases and are particularly active against influenza A sialidase. The binding of the Nphenethyl-N-propylamide 41 to influenza A and B sialidases has been investigated using X-ray crystallography and molecular dynamics simulations. Our results suggest that formation of a hitherto unobserved intramolecular salt bridge within the enzymes may account for the observed activity and selectivity of the series.
