Description

Adamantane is a cyclic hydrocarbon with 18 carbon atoms. It is a colorless, crystalline compound that is soluble in organic solvents. Adamantane has been used as an anti-influenza drug for the treatment of pandemic influenza. Adamantane binds to the virus and inhibits its ability to bind to the host cell surface receptor, preventing viral entry into the cell. Adamantane has been shown to be effective against both influenza A and B viruses in animal studies. Adamantane also has an inhibitory effect on amine metabolism and aryl halide reactions, which may be due to its hydrogen bond forming abilities.
