The acylation of the hydroxyl radical in a phenol of formula IX in accordance with embodiment (g) of the 198879 process can be carried out- in a manner known per se by treatment with an acylating agent such as acetic anhydride, ethoxycarbonyl chloride, stearic anhydride, benzoyl chloride or the like in the presence of a base such as sodium acetate, pyridine, triethylamine, 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine or the like.
The phosphorylation of the hydroxyl radical in a phenol of formula IX in accordance with embodiment (h) of the process can be effected in a manner known per se by treatment with phosphorus oxychloride or dibenzyl-phosphorochloridate in the presence of a base such as triethylamine, N,N-diisopropylamine or the like in a solvent such as benzene, toluene, triethylamine or the like. When phosphorus oxychloride is used, the resulting compound is hydrolyzed. When dibenzylphosphorochloridate is used, the resulting compound is subject to hydrogen-olysis. The phosphate of a compound of formula IX thus obtained may be converted into a salt by a process known per se. 198879 The glycosidation of the hydroxyl radical in a phenol of formula IX in accordance with embodiment (i) of the process can be carried out in a manner known per se by treatment with a glycosyl halide in which the hydroxyl radicals are protected by protecting radicals such as acetyl, benzyl and the like.

The cells were then cultured with Eagle's minimum essential medium containing 2% calf serum, 1% tryptose phosphate broth, 100 ng/m£ of streptomycin and 20 units/ml of penicillin G. The viral C.P.E. (cytopathogenic effect) and cytotoxicity were observed by a microscope after 2 days culture at 33°C. The antiviral activity (IC^q) of the test compounds is expressed by the concentration inhibiting the viral C.P.E. by 50% when compared with the control culture. The cytotoxicity is expressed as the minimum concentration at which toxic symptoms were observed (cytotoxic dose).

The pharmaceutical preparations contain at least one of said antiviral compounds or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof in association with a compatible pharmaceutical carrier material and they may also contain other pharmaceutically active compounds such as a febrifuge, an anodyne, an anti-inflammatory, an anti-histamine, an interferon-inducer or the like. The pharmaceutical preparations include solid forms for oral administration such as tablets, capsules, pills, powders or granules, liquid forms for nasal or oral administration such as solutions, suspensions, syrups or elixers, forms for parenteral administration such as sterile solutions, suspensions or emulsions and forms for topical administration such as solutions, emulsions, micronized powders-, ointments, gargles, troches or aerosols. 198879 The pharmaceutical preparations can be administered so that the concentration of active ingredient is greater than the minimum inhibitory concentration for the particular viral infection being treated.
The dosage for treatment depends on the route of administration/ the age, weight and condition of the patient and the particular disease to be treated. In general, for adults a suggested dosage for use in the common cold is about 100 to 2,000 mg three to six times daily in the case of oral treatment and about 0.1 to 100 ng/cm three to six times daily in the case of topical administration. 198879 The following Examples illustrate the present invention: Example 1 A solution of 328 mg of 41-ethoxy-2'-hydroxy-4,61--dimethoxychalcone in 10 m£ of chloroform was hydrogenated in the presence of 30 mg of 10% palladium-on-charcoal at room temperature under atmospheric pressure for 3 hours. The catalyst was removed by filtration and washed with 30 m2 of chloroform. The filtrate and the washing were combined and evaporated under reduced pressure to give a crystalline residue. Recrystallization of the residue from methanol yielded 302 mg of 1-(4-ethoxy-2-hydroxy-6--methoxyphenyl)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-propanone as colourless needles of melting point 100.5° - 101°C.

Removal of 15 excess thionyl chloride by repeated evaporation with the aid of benzene gave, an oil which dissolved in 5 mil of benzene. The solution was added dropwise to an ice-cold solution of 1.8 ml of p-methoxybenzyl amine in 5 mil of — 33" - II 9887 9 benzene.
