Selected compounds were evaluated against human cytomeglovirus (HCMV), herpes simplex virusus (HSV1/HSV2) and varicella zoster virus (VZV). Details of their synthesis and biological activities are presented.

We required gram quantities of I8MEA for related studies and surveyed the literature for convenient preparative methods. The earliest description' of the synthesis of I 8MEA reacts cyclopentadecanone with the Grignard reagent derived from k3-methyl bromopentane to afford the corresponding tertiary alcohol. The latter was oxidised in low yield by chromium trioxide to afford the corresponding keto acid which was subsequently reduced by an undisclosed Wolff Kishner procedure to afford the product in 8% overall yield.
