Synthesis and antibacterial evaluation of macrocyclic diarylheptanoid derivatives.

ABSTRACT: Bacterial infections, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other problematic bacterial pathogens, continue to pose a significant threat to global public health. As such, new chemotype antibacterial agents are desperately needed to fuel and strengthen the antibacterial drug discovery and development pipeline. As part of our antibacterial research program to develop natural product-inspired new antibacterial agents, here we report synthesis, antibacterial evaluation, and structure-activity relationship studies of an extended chemical library of macrocyclic diarylheptanoids with diverse amine, amide, urea, and sulfonamide functionalities. Results of this study have produced macrocyclic geranylamine and 4-fluorophenethylamine substituted derivatives, exhibiting moderate to good activity against M. tuberculosis and selected Gram-positive bacterial pathogens.

Pharmacophore Modeling, Synthesis, and Antibacterial Evaluation of Chalcones and Derivatives.

Project description:A series of novel chalcone and thiol-Michael addition analogues was synthesized and tested against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other clinically significant bacterial pathogens. Previously reported chalcone-like antibacterials (1a-c and 2) were used as a training set to generate a pharmacophore model. The chalcone derivative hit compound 3 was subsequently identified through a pharmacophore-based virtual screen of the Specs library of >200 000 compounds. Among the newly synthesized chalcones and thiol-Michael addition analogues, chalcones 6r and 6s were active (minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) = 1.56-6.25 μg/mL) against Gram-positive pathogens Bacillus anthracis and Staphylococcus aureus [methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA)]. The chalcone thiol-Michael addition derivatives 7j-m showed good to excellent antibacterial activities (MICs = 0.78-6.25 μg/mL) against Enterococcus faecalis, B. anthracis, and S. aureus. Interestingly, the amine-Michael addition analogue 12a showed promising anti-MRSA activity (MIC = 1.56 μg/mL) with a selectivity index of 14 toward mammalian Vero cells. In addition, evaluation of selected compounds against biofilm and planktonic S. aureus (MSSA and MRSA) revealed that 12a exhibited bactericidal activities in these assays, which was overall superior to vancomycin. These properties may result from the compounds dissipating the proton motive force of bacterial membranes.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Fingolimod Derivatives as Antibacterial Agents.

Project description:We recently identified fingolimod as a potent antibiofilm compound by screening FDA-approved drugs. To study if the antibacterial activity of fingolimod could be further improved and to explore in-depth structure-activity relationships, we synthesized 28 novel fingolimod derivatives and evaluated their efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus grown in planktonic/single cell and biofilms. The most effective derivatives were tested on preformed S. aureus biofilms and against Gram-negative bacteria Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, using fingolimod as the reference compound. Seven derivatives were more effective against S. aureus, while five other derivatives showed improved activity against P. aeruginosa and/or A. baumannii, with no apparent change in cytotoxicity on human cells. The most interesting derivatives, compounds 43 and 55, displayed a broader spectrum of antibacterial activity, possibly exerted by the change of the para-hydrocarbon chain to a meta position for 43 and by an additional hydroxyl group for 55.

Design, Synthesis and Antibacterial Evaluation of 3-Substituted Ocotillol-Type Derivatives.

Project description:Antibiotic resistance has become a serious global problem that threatens public health. In our previous work, we found that ocotillol-type triterpenoid saponin showed good antibacterial activity. Based on preliminary structure-activity relationship, novel serious C-3 substituted ocotillol-type derivatives 7?26 were designed and synthesized. The in vitro antibacterial activity was tested on five bacterial strains (B. subtilis 168, S. aureus RN4220, E. coli DH5?, A. baum ATCC19606 and MRSA USA300) and compared with the tests on contrast. Among these derivatives, C-3 position free hydroxyl substituted compounds 7?14, showed good antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria. Furthermore, compound 22 exhibited excellent antibacterial activity with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) values of 2 ?g/mL against MRSA USA300 and 4 ?g/mL against B. subtilis. The structure-activity relationships of all current ocotillol-type derivatives our team synthesised were summarized. In addition, the prediction of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties and the study of pharmacophores were also conducted. These results can provide a guide to further design and synthesis works.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of new pleuromutilin derivatives as antibacterial agents.

Project description:Several pleuromutilin derivatives possessing thiadiazole moieties were synthesized via acylation reactions under mild conditions. The in vitro antibacterial activities of the derivatives against methicillin-resistant S. aureus, methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis, S. aureus, S. epidermidis, E. coli, and B. cereus were tested by the agar dilution method and Oxford cup assay. All the screened compounds displayed potent activity. Compound 6d was the most active antibacterial agent because of its lowest MIC value and largest inhibition zone. Docking experiments were performed to understand the possible mode of the interactions between the derivatives and 50S ribosomal subunit. Moreover, the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity properties of the synthesized compounds were analyzed after prediction using the Advanced Chemistry Development/Percepta Platform available online.

Eugenol derivatives: synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of antibacterial and antioxidant activities.

Project description:Eugenol is the major component of clove essential oil and has demonstrated relevant biological potential with well-known antimicrobial and antioxidant action. Therefore, this work carried out the synthesis, purification, characterization, and evaluation of the antioxidant and antibacterial potential of 19 eugenol derivatives. The derivatives were produced by esterification reactions in the hydroxyl group (-OH) of eugenol with different carboxylic acids and also by addition reactions in the double bond of the allyl group. The derivatives had a promising antibacterial potential, including a lower minimum inhibitory concentration of 500 μg/mL than eugenol (1000 μg/mL). In addition, the derivatives were active against bacterial strains (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus) that eugenol itself showed no activity, thus increasing the spectrum of antibacterial action. As for the antioxidant activity, it was observed that the derivatives that involved esterification reactions in the hydroxyl group (-OH) of the eugenol molecule's phenol resulted in a significant reduction of the antioxidant action (IC50 > 100 μg/mL) when compared with the eugenol precursor molecule (IC50 = 4.38 μg/mL). On the other hand, the structural changes located in the double bond affected much more smoothly the capacity of capturing radicals than the starting molecule, also being obtained derivatives with proximal antioxidant capacity (IC50 = 19.30 μg/mL) to commercial standards such as Trolox (IC50 = 16.00 μg/mL).

Synthesis and Antibacterial Evaluation of N-phenylacetamide Derivatives Containing 4-arylthiazole Moieties.

Project description:A series of new N-phenylacetamide derivatives containing 4-arylthiazole moieties was designed and synthesized by introducing the thiazole moiety into the amide scaffold. The structures of the target compounds were confirmed by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and HRMS. Their in vitro antibacterial activities were evaluated against three kinds of bacteria-Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae (Xoo), Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Citri (Xac) and X.oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc)-showing promising results. The minimum 50% effective concentration (EC50) value of N-(4-((4-(4-fluoro-phenyl)thiazol-2-yl)amino)phenyl)acetamide (A1) is 156.7 µM, which is superior to bismerthiazol (230.5 µM) and thiodiazole copper (545.2 µM). A scanning electron microscopy (SEM) investigation has confirmed that compound A1 could cause cell membrane rupture of Xoo. In addition, the nematicidal activity of the compounds against Meloidogyne incognita (M. incognita) was also tested, and compound A23 displayed excellent nematicidal activity, with mortality of 100% and 53.2% at 500 ?g/mL and 100 ?g/mL after 24 h of treatment, respectively. The preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of these compounds are also briefly described. These results demonstrated that phenylacetamide derivatives may be considered as potential leads in the design of antibacterial agents.

3-Substituted N-Benzylpyrazine-2-carboxamide Derivatives: Synthesis, Antimycobacterial and Antibacterial Evaluation.

Project description:A series of substituted N-benzyl-3-chloropyrazine-2-carboxamides were prepared as positional isomers of 5-chloro and 6-chloro derivatives, prepared previously. During the aminolysis of the acyl chloride, the simultaneous substitution of chlorine with benzylamino moiety gave rise to N-benzyl-3-(benzylamino)pyrazine-2-carboxamides as side products, in some cases. Although not initially planned, the reaction conditions were modified to populate this double substituted series. The final compounds were tested against four mycobacterial strains. N-(2-methylbenzyl)-3-((2-methylbenzyl)amino)pyrazine-2-carboxamide (1a) and N-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)-3-((3,4-dichlorobenzyl)amino)pyrazine-2-carboxamide (9a) proved to be the most effective against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv, with MIC = 12.5 ?g·mL-1. Compounds were screened for antibacterial activity. The most active compound was 3-chloro-N-(2-chlorobenzyl)pyrazine-2-carboxamide (5) against Staphylococcus aureus with MIC = 7.81 ?M, and Staphylococcus epidermidis with MIC = 15.62 ?M. HepG2 in vitro cytotoxicity was evaluated for the most active compounds; however, no significant toxicity was detected. Compound 9a was docked to several conformations of the enoyl-ACP-reductase of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In some cases, it was capable of H-bond interactions, typical for most of the known inhibitors.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of apigenin derivatives as antibacterial and antiproliferative agents.

Project description:Two series of apigenin [5,7-dihydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4H-chromen-4-one] derivatives, 3a-3j and 4a-4j, were synthesized. The apigenin and alkyl amines moieties of these compounds were separated by C₂ or C₃ spacers, respectively. The chemical structures of the apigenin derivatives were confirmed using ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, and electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy. The in vitro antibacterial and antiproliferative activities of all synthesized compounds were determined. Among the tested compounds, 4a-4j displayed significant antibacterial activity against the tested strains (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa). Additionally, 4i showed the best inhibitory activity with minimum inhibitory concentrations of 1.95, 3.91, 3.91, and 3.91 μg/mL against S. aureus, B. subtilis, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa, respectively. The antiproliferative activity of the apigenin derivatives was evaluated by an MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide] assay. We determined that 4a-4j displayed better growth inhibition activity against four human cancer cell lines, namely, human lung (A549), human cervical (HeLa), human hepatocellular liver (HepG2), and human breast (MCF-7) cancer cells, than the parent apigenin. Compound 4j was found to be the most active antiproliferative compound against the selected cancer cells. Structure-activity relationships were also discussed based on the obtained experimental data.

Synthesis and Antibacterial Evaluation of Novel Vancomycin Derivatives Containing Quaternary Ammonium Moieties.

Project description:A series of novel vancomycin analogues with quaternary ammonium moieties have been designed and synthesized for fighting with clinically isolated drug-resistant bacteria. Partial target molecules exhibited potent activity against the tested strains. Among all of the compounds, a triazole quaternary ammonium vancomycin (QAV) derivative QAV-a1 exerted the best antibacterial activities. QAV-a1 was found to be 4- to 32-fold more efficacious than vancomycin against MRSA. Meanwhile, QAV-a1 showed a good pharmacokinetic profile with a half-life of 5.19 ± 0.10 h, which is longer than that of vancomycin (4.3 ± 1.9 h). These results provided guidance for the further exploitation of vancomycin derivatives against drug-resistant bacteria.
