Abstract

Peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) play a key role in prebiotic chemistry as a chimera between RNA and proteins. We developed an alternative synthesis of bioactive PNA’s diaminopurine and guanine analogues from prebiotic compounds, such as aminomalononitrile (AMN), urea, and guanidine, using a two-step multicomponent microwave-assisted and solvent-free approach in the presence of selected amino acids. The novel derivatives showed selective inhibitory activity against influenza virus A/Puerto Rico/ 8/34 H1N1 encompassing the range of nanomolar activity. Derivatives decorated with the tyrosine residue showed the highest inhibitory activity against the virus.
