Natural Product-Based Pesticide Discovery: Design, Synthesis and Bioactivity Studies of N-Amino-Maleimide Derivatives.

ABSTRACT: Natural products are an important source of pesticide discovery. A series of N-amino-maleimide derivatives containing hydrazone group were designed and synthesized based on the structure of linderone and methyllinderone which were isolated from Lindera erythrocarpa Makino. According to the bioassay results, compounds 2 and 3 showed 60% inhibition against mosquito (Culex pipiens pallens) at 0.25 µg·mL?1. Furthermore, the results of antifungal tests indicated that most compounds exhibited much better antifungal activities against fourteen phytopathogenic fungi than linderone and methyllinderone and some compounds exhibited better antifungal activities than commercial fungicides (carbendazim and chlorothalonil) at 50 µg·mL?1. In particular, compound 12 exhibited broad-spectrum fungicidal activity (>50% inhibitory activities against 11 phytopathogenic fungi) and compounds 12 and 14 displayed 60.6% and 47.9% inhibitory activity against Rhizoctonia cerealis at 12.5 µg·mL?1 respectively. Furthermore, compound 17 was synthesized, which lacks N-substituent at maleimide and its poor antifungal activity against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Rhizoctonia cerealis at 50 µg·mL?1 showed that the backbone structure of N-amino-maleimide derivatives containing hydrazone group was important to the antifungal activity.

Project description:Hydroxamate, as a zinc-binding group (ZBG), prevails in the design of histone deacetylase 6(HDAC6) inhibitors due to its remarkable zinc-chelating capability. However, hydroxamate-associated genotoxicity and mutagenicity have limited the widespread application of corresponding HDAC6 inhibitors in the treatment of human diseases. To avoid such side effects, researchers are searching for novel ZBGs that may be used for the synthesis of HDAC6 inhibitors. In this study, a series of stereoisomeric compounds were designed and synthesized to discover non-hydroxamate HDAC6 inhibitors using α-amino amide as zinc-ion-chelating groups, along with a pair of enantiomeric isomers with inverted L-shaped vertical structure as cap structures. The anti-proliferative activities were determined against HL-60, Hela, and RPMI 8226 cells, and 7a and its stereoisomer 13a exhibited excellent activities against Hela cells with IC50 = 0.31 µM and IC50 = 5.19 µM, respectively. Interestingly, there is a significant difference between the two stereoisomers. Moreover, an evaluation of cytotoxicity toward human normal liver cells HL-7702 indicated its safety for normal cells. X-ray single crystal diffraction was employed to increase insights into molecule structure and activities. It was found that the carbonyl of the amide bond is on the different side from the amino and pyridine nitrogen atoms. To identify possible protein targets to clarify the mechanism of action and biological activity of 7a, a small-scale virtual screen using reverse docking for HDAC isoforms (1-10) was performed and the results showed that HDAC6 was the best receptor for 7a, suggesting that HDAC6 may be a potential target for 7a. The interaction pattern analysis showed that the α-amino amide moiety of 7a coordinated with the zinc ion of HDAC6 in a bidentate chelate manner, which is similar to the chelation pattern of hydroxamic acid. Finally, the molecular dynamics simulation approaches were used to assess the docked complex's conformational stability. In this work, we identified 7a as a potential HDAC6 inhibitor and provide some references for the discovery of non-hydroxamic acid HDAC6 inhibitors.
