Sugar modified pyrimido[4,5-b]indole nucleosides: synthesis and antiviral activity.

ABSTRACT: Three types of sugar modified pyrimido[4,5-b]indole nucleosides (2'-deoxy-2'-fluororibo-, 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoroarabino- and arabinonucleosides) were synthesized by glycosylation of 4,6-dichloropyrimido[4,5-b]indole followed by modification of sugar moiety and introduction of substituents into position 4 by cross-coupling reactions or nucleophilic substitutions. Some 2'-fluororibo- and 2'-fluoroarabinonucleosides displayed interesting anti-HCV activities (IC50 = 1.6-20 ?M) and the latter compounds also some anti-dengue activities (IC50 = 10.8-40 ?M).

Docking, Synthesis and Evaluation of the Antifungal Activity of Pyrimido [4,5-b]quinolins.

Project description:In order to expand the application of Fe3O4@SiO2-SnCl4 in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds, in this study, we wish to report the use of one-pot three component synthesis of pyrimido [4,5-b]quinolone derivatives ( D1-D16 ) through reaction of 6-amino-2-(methylthio)pyrimidin-4 (3H)-one, dimedone, or 1,3-cyclohexadione and aldehydes in the presence of Fe3O4@SiO2-SnCl4 as an efficient eco-friendly catalyst under ultrasound irradiation. The final aim of this study is evaluation of antifungal activity of resulted products. Synthesis of pyrimido [4,5-b]quinolin derivatives were done via three components coupling reaction of aldehyde, dimedone or 1,3-cyclohexadione and 6-amino-2-(methylthio)pyrimidin-4 (3H)-one in the presence of Fe3O4@SiO2-SnCl4 under ultrasonic irradiation in water at 60 °C. The products structure were studied by FT-IRI, 1H NMR,II and 13C NMRII. All the compounds were screened for antimicrobial activity by broth microdilution methods as recommended by CLSIIII. Considering our results showed that compound ( D13 ) had the most antifungal activity against C. dubliniensis, C. Albicans, C. Tropicalis, and C. Neoformance at concentrations ranging (MIC90) from 1-4 μg/mL. Compounds ( D9 ), ( D10 ), ( D14 ), and ( D15 ) had significant inhibitory activities against C. dubliniensis at concentrations ranging (MIC90) from 4-8 μg/mL, respectively. 5-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-8,8-dimethyl-2-(methylthio)-5,8,9,10-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-4,6(3H,7H)-dione ( D13 ) exhibited inhibitory and fungicidal activities against the tested yeasts. The specific binding mode or the binding orientation of more efficient compounds to CYP51 active site, have been also performed by molecular modeling investigations and showed that there is a good correlation with biological test.

Design, synthesis, and structure-activity relationships of pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-4-amines as microtubule depolymerizing agents that are effective against multidrug resistant cells.

Project description:To identify the structural features of 9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indoles as microtubule depolymerizers, pyrimido[4,5-b]indoles 2-8 with varied substituents at the 2-, 4- and 5-positions were designed and synthesized. Nucleophilic displacement of 2,5-substituted-4-chloro-pyrimido[4,5-b]indoles with appropriate arylamines was the final step employed in the synthesis of target compounds 2-8. Compounds 2 and 6 had two-digit nanomolar potency (IC50) against MDA-MB-435, SK-OV-3 and HeLa cancer cells in vitro. Compounds 2 and 6 also depolymerized microtubules comparable to the lead compound 1. Compounds 2, 3, 6 and 8 were effective in cells expressing P-glycoprotein or the βIII isotype of tubulin, mechanisms that are associated with clinical drug resistance to microtubule targeting drugs. Proton NMR and molecular modeling studies were employed to identify the structural basis for the microtubule depolymerizing activity of pyrimido[4,5-b]indoles.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 7-Chloro-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-based Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3? Inhibitors.

Project description:Glycogen synthase kinase-3? (GSK-3?) represents a relevant drug target for the treatment of neurodegenerative pathologies including Alzheimer's disease. We herein report on the optimization of a novel class of GSK-3? inhibitors based on the tofacitinib-derived screen hit 3-((3R,4R)-3-((7-chloro-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indol-4-yl)(methyl)amino)-4-methylpiperidin-1-yl)-3-oxopropanenitrile (1). We synthesized a series of 19 novel 7-chloro-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-based derivatives and studied their structure-activity relationships with focus on the cyanoacetyl piperidine moiety. We unveiled the crucial role of the nitrile group and its importance for the activity of this compound series. A successful rigidization approach afforded 3-(3aRS,7aSR)-(1-(7-chloro-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indol-4-yl)octahydro-6H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-6-yl)-propanenitrile (24), which displayed an IC50 value of 130 nM on GSK-3? and was further characterized by its metabolic stability. Finally, we disclosed the putative binding modes of the most potent inhibitors within the ATP binding site of GSK-3? by 1 µs molecular dynamics simulations.

Synthesis and antiviral activity of certain second generation methylenecyclopropane nucleosides.

Project description:A second-generation series of substituted methylenecyclopropane nucleosides (MCPNs) has been synthesized and evaluated for antiviral activity against a panel of human herpesviruses, and for cytotoxicity. Although alkylated 2,6-diaminopurine analogs showed little antiviral activity, the compounds containing ether and thioether substituents at the 6-position of the purine did demonstrate potent and selective antiviral activity against several different human herpesviruses. In the 6-alkoxy series, antiviral activity depended on the length of the ether carbon chain, with the optimum chain length being about four carbon units long. For the corresponding thioethers, compounds containing secondary thioethers were more potent than those with primary thioethers.

Synthesis and biological activity of 5-chloro-N⁴-substituted phenyl-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-2,4-diamines as vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 inhibitors and antiangiogenic agents.

Project description:Inhibition of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling pathways is an important area for the development of novel anticancer agents. Numerous multikinase inhibitors (MKIs) have been recently approved for the treatment of cancer. Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) is the principal mediator of tumor angiogenesis. In an effort to develop ATP-competitive VEGFR-2 selective inhibitors the 5-chloro-N(4)-substituted phenyl-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-2,4-diamine scaffold was designed. The synthesis of the target compounds involved N-(4,5-dichloro-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indol-2-yl)-2,2-dimethylpropanamide) as a common intermediate. A nucleophilic displacement of the 4-chloro group of the common intermediate by appropriately substituted anilines afforded the target compounds. Biological evaluation indicated that compound 5 is a potent and selective VEGFR-2 inhibitor comparable to sunitinib and semaxinib.

Synthesis and evaluation of 5-(arylthio)-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-2,4-diamines as receptor tyrosine kinase and thymidylate synthase inhibitors and as antitumor agents.

Project description:In an effort to optimize the structural requirements for combined cytostatic and cytotoxic effects in single agents, a series of 5-(arylthio)-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-2,4-diamines 3-7 were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) as well as thymidylate synthase (TS). The synthesis of these compounds involved the nucleophilic displacement of the common intermediate 5-bromo/5-chloro-9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-2,4-diamine with appropriate aryl thiols. A novel four step synthetic scheme to the common intermediate was developed which is more efficient relative to the previously reported six-step sequence. Biological evaluation of these compounds indicated dual activity in RTKs and human TS (hTS). In the VEGFR-2 assay, compound 5 was equipotent to the standard compound semaxanib and was better than standard TS inhibitor pemetrexed, in the hTS assay. Compounds 3, 6 and 7 were nanomolar inhibitors of hTS and were several fold better than pemetrexed.

Synthesis, antiviral activity, cytotoxicity and cellular pharmacology of l-3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxypurine nucleosides.

Project description:Microwave-assisted optimized transglycosylation reactions were used to prepare eleven modified l-3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxypurine nucleosides. These l-nucleoside analogs were evaluated against HIV and hepatitis B virus. The l-3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxypurines nucleosides were metabolized to nucleoside 5'-triphosphates in primary human lymphocytes, but exhibited weak or no antiviral activity against HIV-1. The nucleosides were also inactive against HBV in HepG2 cells. Pre-steady state kinetic experiments demonstrated that the l-3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxypurine triphosphates could be incorporated by purified HIV-1 reverse transcriptase, although their catalytic efficiency (k(pol)/K(d)) of incorporation was low. Interestingly, a phosphoramidate prodrug of l-3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxyadenosine exhibited anti-HIV-1 activity without significant toxicity.

Synthesis and antiviral properties of spirocyclic [1,2,3]-triazolooxazine nucleosides.

Project description:An efficient synthesis of spirocyclic triazolooxazine nucleosides is described. This was achieved by the conversion of β-D-psicofuranose to the corresponding azido-derivative, followed by alkylation of the primary alcohol with a range of propargyl bromides, obtained by Sonogashira chemistry. The products of these reactions underwent 1,3-dipolar addition smoothly to generate the protected spirocyclic adducts. These were easily deprotected to give the corresponding ribose nucleosides. The library of compounds obtained was investigated for its antiviral activity using MHV (mouse hepatitis virus) as a model wherein derivative 3 f showed the most promising activity and tolerability.

Macrophage activation by a substituted pyrimido[5,4-b]indole increases anti-cancer activity.

Project description:Immunotherapy has become a promising new approach for cancer treatment due to the immune system's ability to remove tumors in a safe and specific manner. Many tumors express anti-inflammatory factors that deactivate the local immune response or recruit peripheral macrophages into pro-tumor roles. Because of this, effective and specific ways of activating macrophages into anti-tumor phenotypes is highly desirable for immunotherapy purposes. Here, the use of a small molecule TLR agonist as a macrophage activator for anti-cancer therapy is reported. This compound, referred to as PBI1, demonstrated unique activation characteristics and expression patterns compared to treatment with LPS, through activation of TLR4. Furthermore, PBI1 treatment resulted in anti-tumor immune behavior, enhancing macrophage phagocytic efficiency five-fold versus non-treated macrophages. Additive effects were observed via use of a complementary strategy (anti-CD47 antibody), resulting in ?10-fold enhancement of phagocytosis, suggesting this small molecule approach could be used in conjunction with other therapeutics.

A novel synthesis of 3-(substituted)pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(1H,6H)-diones.

Project description:An improved synthesis of 3-(substituted)pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(1H,6H)-diones, a known subclass of 4-deazatoxoflavins, is reported. The approach involves treatment of 3-methyl-6-(1-methylhydrazinyl) uracil with representative phenyl and alkyl glyoxal monohydrates, which in turn are obtained by selenium dioxide oxidation of the corresponding phenyl and alkyl methyl ketones. The first entry into 4-monosubstituted isomers is also reported.
