Abstract: Thiazolinone analogues of indolmycin having anti-viral activity as well as a degree of antibacterial and antimycoplasmal activity in contrast to the known indolmycin which has only some antibacterial activity. Tautomers and a single enantiomer or mixture of enantiomers are included. Intermediates are described which are cyclized to produce the active antiviral substances. Suitable dosage forms and amounts are set forth and various routes of administration included including administration to the respiratory tract as by insufflation or inhalation.

Abstract: A novel series of 2-amino-5-spiro substituted oxazolin-4-ones and intermediates for making said compounds. These compounds are prepared by first converting the appropriately substituted cycloketone to the corresponding cyclocyanohydrin; converting this compounds to the corresponding hydroxy acid; esterifying the hydroxy acid, and finally cyclizing the hydroester to form the 2-amino-5-spiro substituted oxazolin-4-one. These compounds exhibit central nervous system activity and are active as either stimulants or depressants, and some are useful as performance enhancers.

Abstract: This invention relates to antiviral substances, to a method for their preparation, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising them.
