Abstract

Reactions of 4-chloro-2,3-dimethyl-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline and 4-chloro-6-methoxy-2,3-dimethyl-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline with 3-dimethylaminopropylamine and/or 2-dimethylaminoethylamine afforded 4-(3-dimethylaminopropylamino)-2,3-dimethyl-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline (IIa), its 6-methoxy derivative (IIc), 4-(2-diethylaminoethylamino)-2,3-dimethyl-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline (IIb) and its 6-methoxy derivative (IId). Reaction of 4,9-dihydro-3,9-dimethyl-4-oxo-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline with thionyl chloride gave an intermediate, whose reaction with 3-dimethylaminopropylamine afforded 4-(3-dimethylaminopropylamino)-3,9-dimethyl-9H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline (III). The compounds were tested in vivo in mice for efficacy against the A2-Hongkong influenza virus and the encephalomyocarditis virus.
