Abstract
1-substituted, 2-substituted 1H-imidazo[4,5-c]-quinolin-4-amines are disclosed. These compounds function as antiviral agents, they induce biosynthesis of interferon, and they inhibit tumor formation in animal models. This invention also provides intermediates for preparing such compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and pharmacological methods of using such compounds.
