The synthesis and the biological (antioxidant and antiviral) activities of novel hydroxycinnamic acid amides of a thiazole containing TFA.valine-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester are reported. The amides have been synthesized from p-coumaric, ferulic and sinapic acids with the corresponding TFA.valine-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester using the coupling reagent N-ethyl-N'-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and 4-(dimethylamino) pyridine (DMAP) as a catalyst. The antioxidant properties of the newly synthesized amides have been studied for then antioxidative activity using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)* test. The newly synthesized compounds have been tested against the replication in vitro of influenza virus A (H3N2) and human herpes virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2).
