Synthesis and antibacterial activity of pentacyclines: a novel class of tetracycline analogs.

ABSTRACT: Employing a highly efficient total synthesis approach, we synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity diverse and novel pentacycline analogs with systematic variations at C7, C8, C9, and C10. Certain substitution groups, as well as substitution patterns at various positions, were found to be preferred for increased antibacterial activity. A number of pentacycline analogs displayed potent activity in vitro and in vivo, especially against Gram-positive organisms. Several analogs have also shown promising oral bioavailability in rats and cynomolgus monkey.

Synthesis, insecticidal, and antibacterial activities of novel neonicotinoid analogs with dihydropyridine.

Project description:BackgroundNilaparvata lugens, a major pest in rice-growing areas, is extremely difficult to manage. Neonicotinoids have increasingly been used in crop protection and animal health care against N. lugens. To discover new bioactive molecules and pesticides, we combined the active structure of cyanoacrylates, aromatic aldehydes, and substituted pyridyl (thiazolyl) methyl-2-substituted-methylidene-imidazolidine derivatives for the design and synthesis of a series of novel neonicotinoid analogs with dihydropyridine.ResultsA series of neonicotinoid analogs with dihydropyridine were synthesized. Their structures were characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and elemental analysis and their insecticidal and antibacterial activities were assessed. Preliminary biological activity tests showed that all of the title compounds feature insecticidal activities against N. lugens at 500 mg/L. Moreover, some compounds showed promising antibacterial activities against Pseudomonas solanacearum (e.g., Tobacco bacterial wilt and Tomato bacterial wilt) at a dose of 200 mg/L.ConclusionA synthetic route to obtain neonicotinoid analogs with dihydropyridine by the reaction of intermediates 2 (pyridyl (thiazolyl) methyl-2-substituted-methyl-ideneimidazolidine) and intermediates 1 (cyanoacrylates) and different aromatic aldehydes in acetonitrile under reflux conditions is presented. The effects of different solvents, bases, and reaction time on the reaction of 3a were investigated. The results of this study suggest that neonicotinoid analogs with dihydropyridine could cause N. lugens death and restrain P. solanacearum growth.

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of a novel class of 15-membered macrolide antibiotics, "11a-azalides".

Project description:An efficient method for the reconstruction of the 9-dihydroerythromycin A macrolactone skeleton has been established. The key steps are oxidative cleavage at the 11,12-position and reconstruction after insertion of an appropriate functionalized amino alcohol. Novel 15-membered macrolides, we named as "11a-azalides", were synthesized based on the above methodology and evaluated for their antibacterial activity. Among them, (13R)-benzyloxymethyl-11a-azalide showed the most potent Streptococcus pneumoniae activity, with improved activity against a representative erythromycin-resistant strain compared to clarithromycin (CAM).

Microbial Enzymatic Synthesis of Amikacin Analogs With Antibacterial Activity Against Multidrug-Resistant Pathogens.

Project description:With the constant emergence of multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria, interest in the development of new aminoglycoside (AG) antibiotics for clinical use has increased. The regioselective modification of AG scaffolds could be an efficient approach for the development of new antibiotics with improved therapeutic potency. We enzymatically synthesized three amikacin analogs containing structural modifications in the amino groups and evaluated their antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity. Among them, 6'-N-acyl-3″-N-methylated analogs showed improved antibacterial activity against the multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria tested, while exhibiting reduced in vitro nephrotoxicity compared to amikacin. This study demonstrated that the modifications of the 6'-amino group as well as the 3″-amino group have noteworthy advantages for circumventing the AG-resistance mechanism. The regiospecific enzymatic modification could be exploited to develop novel antibacterial agents with improved pharmacological potential.

Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship of Palmatine Derivatives as a Novel Class of Antibacterial Agents against Helicobacter pylori.

Project description:Taking palmatine (PMT) as the lead, 20 new PMT derivatives were synthesized and examined for their antibacterial activities against six tested metronidazole (MTZ)-resistant Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) strains. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) indicated that the introduction of a suitable secondary amine substituent at the 9-position might be beneficial for potency. Among them, compound 1c exhibited the most potent activities against MTZ-resistant strains, with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 4-16 μg/mL, better than that of the lead. It also exhibited a good safety profile with a half-lethal dose (LD50) of over 1000 mg/kg. Meanwhile, 1c might exert its antimicrobial activity through targeting H. pylori urease. These results suggested that PMT derivatives might be a new family of anti-H. pylori components.

Short synthesis of a novel class of salvinorin A analogs with hemiacetalic structure.

Project description:Novel semisynthetic analogs of salvinorin A, a full agonist having extraordinary affinity as well as selectivity for the ?-opioid receptor (KOR), were obtained in good yields. The derivatives are remarkable for their unusual and unique hemiacetal structure in the salvinorin series of compounds. The formation of the hemiacetal occurs with epimerization at C-12, thus preserving the original configuration of salvinorin A. The dimethyl ester derivative of the hemiacetal was found to have an affinity for both KOR and MOR (?-opioid receptor).

Synthesis and biological evaluation of naphthoquinone analogs as a novel class of proteasome inhibitors.

Project description:Screening of the NCI Diversity Set-1 identified PI-083 (NSC-45382) a proteasome inhibitor selective for cancer over normal cells. Focused libraries of novel compounds based on PI-083 chloronaphthoquinone and sulfonamide moieties were synthesized to gain a better understanding of the structure-activity relationship responsible for chymotrypsin-like proteasome inhibitory activity. This led to the demonstration that the chloronaphthoquinone and the sulfonamide moieties are critical for inhibitory activity. The pyridyl group in PI-083 can be replaced with other heterocyclic groups without significant loss of activity. Molecular modeling studies were also performed to explore the detailed interactions of PI-083 and its derivatives with the beta5 and beta6 subunits of the 20S proteasome. The refined model showed an H-bond interaction between the Asp-114 and the sulfonamide moiety of the PI-083 in the beta6 subunit.

Synthesis of Novel FTY720 Analogs with Anticancer Activity through PP2A Activation.

Project description:FTY720 inhibits various cancers through PP2A activation. The structure of FTY720 is also used as a basic structure for the design of sphingosine kinase (SK) inhibitors. We have synthesized derivatives using an amide chain in FTY720 with a phenyl backbone, and then compounds were screened by an MTT cell viability assay. The PP2A activity of compound 7 was examined. The phosphorylation levels of AKT and ERK, downstream targets of PP2A, in the presence of compound 7, were determined. Compound 7 may exhibit anticancer effects through PP2A activation rather than the mechanism by inhibition of SK1 in cancer cells. In the docking study of compound 7 and PP2A, the amide chain of compound 7 showed an interaction with Asn61 that was different from FTY720, which is expected to affect the activity of the compound.

Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activity of Novel 4-Hydroxy-2-quinolone Analogs.

Project description:Alkyl quinolone has been proven to be a privileged scaffold in the antimicrobial drug discovery pipeline. In this study, a series of new 4-hydroxy-2-quinolinone analogs containing a long alkyl side chain at C-3 and a broad range of substituents on the C-6 and C-7 positions were synthesized. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of these analogs against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Aspergillus flavus were investigated. The structure-activity relationship study revealed that the length of the alkyl chain, as well as the type of substituent, has a dramatic impact on the antimicrobial activities. Particularly, the brominated analogs 3j with a nonyl side chain exhibited exceptional antifungal activities against A. flavus (half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) = 1.05 µg/mL), which surpassed that of the amphotericin B used as a positive control. The antibacterial activity against S. aureus, although not as potent, showed a similar trend to the antifungal activity. The data suggest that the 4-hydroxy-2-quinolone is a promising framework for the further development of new antimicrobial agents, especially for antifungal treatment.

Benzotriazole-Mediated Synthesis and Antibacterial Activity of Novel N-Acylcephalexins.

Project description:Cephalexin (1) was acylated using N-acylbenzotriazoles (3a-k') derived from various carboxylic acids including aromatic, heterocyclic and N-Pg-?-amino acid to afford N-acylcephalexins in excellent yields (82%-96%). Antibacterial screening of the novel cephalosporins revealed that all targets (4a-j) retained the antibacterial activity of cephalexin against Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538). N-Nicotinylcephalexin (4c) and N-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl)cephalexin (4g) exhibited a broader spectrum of antibacterial activity towards standard strains of Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), Paenibacillus polymyxa (ATCC 842), and Escherichia coli (ATCC 10536) as well as a resistant strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853).
