Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of Novel Isoxazolines/Oxime Sulfonates of 2'(2',6')-(Di)Chloropodophyllotoxins as Insecticidal Agents.

ABSTRACT: A series of 2'(2',6')-(di)halogeno-isoxazolopodophyllic acids-based esters, and oxime sulfonates of 2'(2',6')-(di)halogenopodophyllones were prepared by structural modifications of podophyllotoxin as insecticidal agents against Mythimna separata Walker. It was found that when 2'(2',6')-(di)halogenopodophyllones or 2'(2',6')-(di)chloropicropodophyllones reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride, the desired products were related with the configuration of their lactones. Three key single-crystal structures of Ie, IIe and IIIb were determined by X-ray diffraction. Especially compounds IIc and Vc showed the highest insecticidal activity. Moreover, some interesting results of structure-insecticidal activity relationships of tested compounds were also observed.

Synthesis and Investigation of Novel Spiro-isoxazolines as Anti-Cancer Agents.

Project description:A series of structurally diverse 4-bromo spiro-isoxazolines possessing a variety of aromatic and aliphatic substituents at the 3 position, were synthesized through a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition followed by intramolecular cyclization of a pendant hydroxyl or carboxylic acid group. The biochemical antiproliferative activity was evaluated in vitro by using two breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) and two prostate cancer cell lines (PC-3 and DU-145) using the MTT viability assay, and the IC50 values were obtained. Spiro-isoxazoline derivatives bearing a p-chloro or an o-dichloro aromatic substituent at the 3-position of the isoxazoline showed considerable antitumor activities in all four cell lines with IC50 value ranging from 43μM to 56μM.

Design, Synthesis and Bioactive Evaluation of Oxime Derivatives of Dehydrocholic Acid as Anti-Hepatitis B Virus Agents.

Project description:Oxime derivatives of dehydrocholic acid and its esters were designed for anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) drugs according to principles of assembling active chemical fragments. Twelve compounds were synthesized from dehydrocholic acid by esterification and oxime formation, and their anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) activities were evaluated with HepG 2.2.15 cells. Results showed that 5 compounds exhibited more effective inhibition of HBeAg than positive control, among them 2b-3 and 2b-1 showed significant anti-HBV activities on inhibiting secretion of HBeAg (IC50 (2b-3) = 49.39 ± 12.78 ?M, SI (2b-3) = 11.03; IC50 (2b-1) = 96.64 ± 28.99 ?M, SI (2b-1) = 10.35) compared to the Entecavir (IC50 = 161.24 ?M, SI = 3.72). Molecular docking studies showed that most of these compounds interacted with protein residues of heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) in host hepatocyte and bile acid receptor.

Design and Synthesis of Scopoletin Sulfonate Derivatives as Potential Insecticidal Agents.

Project description:(1) Background: Scopoletin and scoparone, two naturally occurring coumarins, have garnered considerable attention and have been introduced to the market in China due to their high insecticidal efficacy and low toxicity. To investigate the structure-activity relationship of these coumarins, a series of scopoletin derivatives with aryl sulfate at C7 and different substitutes at C3 were designed and synthesized, and their insecticidal activity was studied. (2) Methods: A total of 28 new scopoletin derivatives were designed and synthesized. Most target compounds exhibited moderate insecticidal activity against the phytophagous mite Tetranychus cinnabarinus and the brine shrimp Artemia salina. (3) Results: Among these compounds, compounds 5a and 5j possessed the best insecticidal activities against T. cinnabarinus, with LC50 values of 57.0 and 20.0 μg/mL, respectively, whereas that of the control drug was 15.0 μg/mL. Compound 4j exhibited selective insecticidal activities against A. salina, with an LC50 value of 9.36 μg/mL, whereas its LC50 value against T. cinnabarinus was 93.0 μg/mL. The enzymatic inhibitory activity on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) showed a consistent tendency with the insecticidal activity. Further molecular docking analyses predicted the binding conformations of these compounds, which showed a good correlation between the insecticidal activity and the binding scores. (4) Conclusions: In general, a decreased electron cloud density of the Δ3,4 olefinic bond is beneficial for improving the insecticidal activity against both T. cinnabarinus and A. salina. In addition, naphthyl or benzene groups with a sulfate ester at the C7 position could further improve the insecticidal activity against A. salina. AChE was implied to be a site of action for potential insecticidal activity. The results provide insight into the rational design of a new generation of effective coumarin insecticides.

Synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular docking of novel nereistoxin derivatives containing phosphonates as insecticidal/AChE inhibitory agents.

Project description:In continuation of our program aimed at the discovery and development of natural product-based insecticidal agents, a series of novel nereistoxin derivatives containing phosphonate were synthesized and characterized by 31P, 1H, 13C NMR and HRMS. The bioactivities of the derivatives were evaluated for the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition potency and insecticidal activity. The AChE inhibitory effects of the derivatives were investigated using the in vitro Ellman method. Half of the compounds exhibited excellent inhibition of AChE. All the compounds were assessed for insecticidal activities against Mythimna separate (Walker) and Rhopalosiphum padi in vivo. Some derivatives displayed promising insecticidal activity against Rhopalosiphum padi. Compounds 5b and 6a displayed the highest activity against R. padi, showing LC50 values of 17.14 and 18.28 μg mL-1, respectively, close to that of commercial insecticide flunicotamid (LC50 = 17.13 μg mL-1). Compound 9g also showed notable insecticidal activity, with an LC50 value of 23.98 μg mL-1. Additionally, the binding modes of the active compounds 5b, 6a and 9g with AChE were analyzed in-depth though molecular docking and the intrinsic reasons for the differences in the strength of the compound's activities were elucidated. In summary, our findings demonstrate the potential of these nereistoxin derivatives as promising candidates for the development of novel pesticides.

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Novel Thiazolidinone-Containing Quinoxaline-1,4-di-<i>N</i>-oxides as Antimycobacterial and Antifungal Agents.

Project description:Tuberculosis and fungal infections can pose serious threats to human health. In order to find novel antimicrobial agents, 26 novel quinoxaline-1,4-di-N-oxides containing a thiazolidinone moiety were designed and synthesized, and their antimycobacterial activities were evaluated. Among them, compounds 2t, 2u, 2y, and 2z displayed the most potent antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv (minimal inhibitory concentration [MIC] = 1.56 μg/mL). The antifungal activity of all the compounds was also evaluated against Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Cryptococcus neoformans. Compounds 2t, 2u, 2y, and 2z exhibited potential antifungal activities, with an MIC between 2 and 4 μg/mL. Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA: q 2 = 0.914, r 2 = 0.967) and comparative molecular similarity index analysis (CoMSIA: q 2 = 0.918, r 2 = 0.968) models were established to investigate the structure and antimycobacterial activity relationship. The results of contour maps revealed that electronegative and sterically bulky substituents play an important role in the antimycobacterial activity. Electronegative and sterically bulky substituents are preferred at the C7 position of the quinoxaline ring and the C4 position of the phenyl group to increase the antimycobacterial activity. Additionally, more hydrogen bond donor substituents should be considered at the C2 side chain of the quinoxaline ring to improve the activity.

Novel Fluorinated 7-Hydroxycoumarin Derivatives Containing an Oxime Ether Moiety: Design, Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Biological Evaluation.

Project description:A series of fluorinated 7-hydroxycoumarin derivatives containing an oxime ether moiety have been designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antifungal activity. All the target compounds were determined by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, FTIR and HR-MS spectra. The single-crystal structures of compounds 4e, 4h, 5h and 6c were further confirmed using X-ray diffraction. The antifungal activities against Botrytis cinerea (B. cinerea), Alternariasolani (A. solani), Gibberella zeae (G. zeae), Rhizoctorzia solani (R. solani), Colletotrichum orbiculare (C. orbiculare) and Alternaria alternata (A. alternata) were evaluated in vitro. The preliminary bioassays showed that some of the designed compounds displayed the promising antifungal activities against the above tested fungi. Strikingly, the target compounds 5f and 6h exhibited outstanding antifungal activity against B. cinerea at 100 μg/mL, with the corresponding inhibition rates reached 90.1 and 85.0%, which were better than the positive control Osthole (83.6%) and Azoxystrobin (46.5%). The compound 5f was identified as the promising fungicide candidate against B. cinerea with the EC50 values of 5.75 μg/mL, which was obviously better than Osthole (33.20 μg/mL) and Azoxystrobin (64.95 μg/mL). Meanwhile, the compound 5f showed remarkable antifungal activities against R. solani with the EC50 values of 28.96 μg/mL, which was better than Osthole (67.18 μg/mL) and equivalent to Azoxystrobin (21.34 μg/mL). The results provide a significant foundation for the search of novel fluorinated 7-hydroxycoumarin derivatives with good antifungal activity.

Synthesis and insecticidal activities of 5-deoxyavermectin B2a oxime ester derivatives.

Project description:Three series of avermectin B2a oxime ester derivatives were synthesized using avermectin B2a as starting material. All of the compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS. Bioassay results indicated that some of the derivatives (8b, 8c, 8d, 8f, 11k, 11l, 14c, 14j) showed potent insecticidal activities against Myzus persicae, Caenorhabditis elegans, or Tetranychus cinnabarinus. As shown by initial insecticidal activity data, compound 8d showed excellent activities (>90%) against M. persicae and C. elegans, which were more potent than that of avermectin B2a. Compound 8d might be a lead compound for designing new avermectin B2a derivatives.

Design, synthesis and evaluation of novel enzalutamide analogues as potential anticancer agents.

Project description:The androgen receptor inhibitor, Enzalutamide, proved effective against castration resistance prostate cancer, has demonstrated clinical benefits and increased survival rate in men. However, AR mutation (F876L) converts Enzalutamide from antagonist to agonist indicating a rapid evolution of resistance. Hence, our goal is to overcome this resistance mechanism by designing and developing novel Enzalutamide analogues. We designed a dataset of Enzalutamide derivatives using Enzalutamide's shape and electrostatic features to match with pharmacophoric features essential for tight binding with the androgen receptor. Based on this design strategy ten novel derivatives were selected including 5,5-dimethyl-3-(6-substituted benzo[d]thia/oxazol-2-yl)-2-thioxo-1-(4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)imidazolidin-4-one (6a-j) for synthesis. All the compounds were evaluated in-vitro on prostate cancer cell lines DU-145, LNCaP and PC3. Interestingly, two compounds 3-(6-hydroxybenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-5,5-dimethyl-2-thioxo-1-(4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl) imidazolidin-4-one (6c, IC50 - 18.26 to 20.31μM) and 3-(6-hydroxybenzo[d]oxazol-2-yl)-5,5-dimethyl -2-thioxo- 1- (4-(trifluoromethyl) pyridin-2-yl)imidazolidin-4-one (6h, IC50 - 18.26 to 20.31μM) were successful with promising in-vitro antiproliferative activity against prostate cancer cell lines. The binding mechanism of potential androgen receptor inhibitors was further studied by molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations and MM-GBSA binding free energy calculations and found in agreement with the in vitro studies. It provided strong theoretical support to our hypothesis.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Aromatase Inhibitors Based on Sulfonates and Sulfonamides of Resveratrol.

Project description:A library of sulfonate and sulfonamide derivatives of Resveratrol was synthesized and tested for its aromatase inhibitory potential. Interestingly, sulfonate derivatives were found to be more active than sulfonamide bioisosteres with IC50 values in the low micromolar range. The sulfonate analogues 1b-c and 1j exhibited good in vitro antiproliferative activity on the MCF7 cell line, evidenced by MTT and LDH release assays. Structure-activity relationships suggested that electronic and lipophilic properties could have a different role in promoting the biological response for sulfonates and sulfonamides, respectively. Docking studies disclosed the main interactions at a molecular level of detail behind the observed inhibition of the more active compounds whose chemical stability has been evaluated with nano-liquid chromatography. Finally, 1b-c and 1j were highlighted as sulfonates to be further developed as novel and original aromatase inhibitors.
