Методом анализа расчетных дескрипторов исследованных молекул, а именно разности энергий граничных орбиталей и дипольных моментов, а также данных их противовирусной активности разработан удобный способ предварительной выбраковки наименее активных соединений, что позволяет оптимизировать процесс поиска новых биологически активных веществ.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The antiviral activity of 17 adamantane containing nitrogenous heterocyclic compounds against the vaccinia virus in Vero cell culture was studied and the data obtained were compared with the results of ab initio quantum chemical calculations using the DFT method (density functional theory). By analyzing the calculated descriptors of the studied molecules, namely, the energy differences of the frontier molecular orbitals and dipole moments, as well as their antiviral activity data, a convenient method for pre-screening the least active compounds has been developed, which allows for the optimization of the search process for new biologically active substanses.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>противовирусная активность</kwd><kwd>азотистые содержащие адамантан гетероциклы</kwd><kwd>квантово-химические расчеты</kwd><kwd>теория функционала плотности</kwd><kwd>граничные молекулярные орбитали</kwd><kwd>метод Фукуи</kwd><kwd>индекс селективности</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>antiviral activity</kwd><kwd>adamantane-containing nitrogen heterocycles</kwd><kwd>quantum chemical calculations</kwd><kwd>density functional theory</kwd><kwd>frontier molecular orbitals</kwd><kwd>Fukui method</kwd><kwd>selectivity index</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Soselia M., Geibel I., Zurabishvili D., Samsoniya S.
