Patent Claims: 1. A pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of orthopoxvirus infections and diseases associated with such infections in a living host, said composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a mixture of compounds comprising: (a) N-[(3aR,4R,4aR,5aS,6S,6aS)-3,3a,4,4a,5,5a,6,6a-octahydro-1,3-dioxo-4,6-et- henocycloprop[f]isoindol-2(1H)-yl]-4-(trifluoromethyl)-benzamide; and (b) N-[(3aR,4S,4aS,5aR,6R,6aS)-3,3a,4,4a,5,5a,6,6a-octahydro-1,3-dioxo-4,6-et- henocycloprop[f]isoindol-2(1H)-yl]-4-(trifluoromethyl)-benzamide, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier medium.

2. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1, wherein said mixture comprises at least about 95% by weight of N-[(3aR,4R,4aR,5aS,6S,6aS)-3,3a,4,4a,5,5a,6,6a-octahydro-1,3-dioxo-4,6-et- henocycloprop[f]isoindol-2(1H)-yl]-4-(trifluoromethyl)-benzamide.

3. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1, wherein said mixture comprises no more than about 5% by weight of N-[(3aR,4S,4aS,5aR,6R,6aS)-3,3a,4,4a,5,5a,6,6a-octahydro-1,3-dioxo-4,6-et- henocycloprop[f]isoindol-2(1H)-yl]-4-(trifluoromethyl)-benzamide.

4. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1, wherein said mixture consists of: (a) about 98.5% by weight of N-[(3aR,4R,4aR,5aS,6S,6aS)-3,3a,4,4a,5,5a,6,6a-octahydro-1,3-dioxo-4,6-et- henocycloprop[f]isoindol-2(1H)-yl]-4-(trifluoromethyl)-benzamide; and (b) about 1.5% of N-[(3aR,4S,4aS,5aR,6R,6aS)-3,3a,4,4a,5,5a,6,6a-octahydro-1,3-dioxo-4,6-et- henocycloprop[f]isoindol-2(1H)-yl]-4-(trifluoromethyl)-benzamide.
