Synthesis and Antistaphylococcal Activity of N-Substituted-1H-benzimidazole-sulphonamidesemail this articleEmail this article to a colleague. save this article to My ClippingsSave this article to My Clippings. discuss this articleDiscuss or comment on this article.
A series of N-substituted-1H-benzimidazole-5(6)-sulfonamides and 3-(5,6-dichloro-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-N-substituted benzensulfonamides were synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). Certain compounds inhibit bacterial growth with low MIC ([mu]g/mL) values. The most active compounds 30, 31, and 32 have the lowest MIC values with 0.39 to 0.19 [mu]g/mL. Among the compounds having sulfonamido moities, 16, 23, and 24 exhibited the strongest antibacterial activity with 1.56 [mu]g/mL MIC values. (Source: Archiv der Pharmazie)

We herein disclose a series of novel diaryl urea derivatives possessing a 4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one group as novel potent anticancer compounds. The structures were confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR, and MS. All the compounds were screened for their antiprofilerative activity agaist the human breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231). The pharmacological results indicated that most of the compounds showed moderate activity. The best of this series is compound 4c (IC50 = 0.7 [mu]mol/L), with a potency 3.6-fold higher than Sorafenib (IC50 = 2.5 [mu]mol/L), which was approved in 2005. (Source: Archiv der Pharmazie)

The present work describes the synthesis and antifungal evaluation of new 5-arylidene-(Z)-2-dimethylamino-1,3-thiazol-4-ones 4a-f, obtained by the reaction of aromatic aldehydes 1 and rhodanine 2 followed by treatment with DMF. All compounds were tested against a panel of yeasts, hialohyphomycetes, and dermatophytes using the microbroth dilution method. Compounds 4a and 4c showed antifungal activity, with compound 4a being the most active one. Compound 4a demonstrated to be fungicidal rather than fungistatic and selective activity against Cryptococcus neoformans and dermatophytes. MIC100, MIC80, and MIC50 of 4a were determ...

Three amidinoarylhydrazines 1, three arylazoamidines 2, and nine arylazoamidoximes 3 have been synthesized and investigated for their potential to function as nitric oxide (NO) modulators. In-vitro studies demonstrated that 2 and 3 inhibited platelet aggregation (2c, IC50 = 3 [mu]M) which could also be shown in vivo by inhibition of thrombus formation in arterioles (3a, 22%). Moreover, for all compounds antihypertensive effects were examined in vivo with SHR rats, with 2a being the most potent candidate by lowering blood pressure by 19%. However, no common underlying mechanism of action could be shown. Some of these compou...

N-Malonyl-1,2-dihydroisoquinoline derivatives were synthesized and investigated as a novel carrier system for site-specific and sustained delivery of drugs to the brain. Such carriers are expected to be stable against air oxidation due to the presence of the carbonyl group close to nitrogen of the dihydroisoquinoline. Reduction of the prepared isoquinolinium quaternary derivatives with sodium dithionite afforded a novel group of N-malonyl-1,2-dihydroisoquinoline chemical delivery systems (CDS). The synthesized N-malonyl-1,2-dihydroisoquinoline chemical delivery systems were subjected to various chemical and biological inve...

The last decade has witnessed a rapid progress in understanding of the molecular cascades that may underlie memory and memory disorders. Among the critical players, activity of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms is essential for many types of learning and memory and their dysfunction, and is critical in memory disorders. PKC inhibition and functional deficits lead to an impairment of various types of learning and memory, consistent with the observations that neurotoxic amyloid inhibits PKC activity and that transgenic animal models with PKC[beta] deficit exhibit impaired capacity in cognition. In addition, PKC isozymes play a...

Starting from substituted 9-chloroacridines, a series of quinacrine and spacered dimeric acridine compounds was prepared. Their ability to interrupt the protein association of prion- and Alzheimer-specific proteins and Ab peptides was explored using a fast screening system based on FACS analysis. The bis-acridines displayed a higher activity than the corresponding monomers. Among these derivatives, best results were obtained with the 2,4-dimethoxy-6-nitro compound 7h for A[beta]-peptides and the 2-methoxy-6-nitro compound 7f for PrP. (Source: Archiv der Pharmazie)

A series of new triazole derivatives were designed and synthesized on the basis of the active site of lanosterol 14[alpha]-demethylase from Candida albicans (CACYP51). 2-(2,4-Difluorophenyl)-3-(methyl-(3-phenoxyalkyl)amino)-1-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propan-2-ols show excellent in-vitro activity against most of the tested pathogenic fungi. The MIC80 value of compound 8a against Candida albicans is 0.01 [mu]M, which provides a good starting template for further structural optimization. The binding modes of the designed compounds were investigated by flexible molecular docking. The compounds interacted with CACYP51 through hyd...

Antiproliferative effects depended on the presence of the central atom iron but were independent on the configuration at the saldach ligand. While the free ligands were inactive, the iron(III) derivatives displayed anticancer activity within a concentration range of 1 to 5 [mu]M irrespective of the used cell line. At 5 [mu]M they were even more active than cis-platin. A mode of action comp...

A new series of 3-imidazolyl-substituted flavan derivatives being equipped with a N-(phenethyl)-azole scaffold as the common pharmacophore of azole antifungals, were synthesized. The stereochemical and conformational properties of compounds were also characterized by 1H-NMR data. The results of the antifungal evaluation of trans-3-imidazolyl-substituted flavan-4-ones and (Z)-trans-3-imidazolyl-substituted flavan-4-one oximes in comparison with the reference drug fluconazole indicated that most target compounds possessed significant in-vitro antifungal activities against the tested fungi, comparable or superior to fluconazo...

Cyclohexylammonium (1R,2R)-1,2-epoxy-3-hydroxypropylphosphonate was conveniently synthesized from dibenzyl (1S,2R)-2,3-O-cyclohexylidene-1,2,3-trihydroxypropylphosphonate by a reaction sequence including mesylation, hydrolysis of acetal, intramolecular Williamson reaction, and hydrogenation in the presence of cyclohexylamine. For dibenzyl (1S,2R)-2,3-O-cyclohexylidene-1,2,3-trihydroxypropylphosphonates the same approach was not successful, since prior the epoxide-ring closure tritylation of HO-C3 in dibenzyl (1R,2R)-2,3-dihydroxy-1-mesyloxypropylphosphonate was necessary and the hydrogenolysis of dibenzyl (1S,2R)-1,2-epoxy...

The objective of this work was to develop a liver-specific antihepato carcinoma agent. A series of 5-fluorouracil / cholic acid conjugates (5-FU-cholic acid conjugates) were prepared and tested for their chemical characteristics and bio-distribution properties. The in-vitro stability trial showed 5-FU-cholic acid conjugates could be completely hydrolyzed by heating at 70°C in an acidic solution, pH = 1, for 5 min. The fast and complete hydrolysis of these compounds could be compatible with a fast separation and analysis method to shorten the analysis time. The decomposition speeds of the 5-FU-cholic acid conjugates in dif...

An efficient and simple three-component domino synthesis of some new dihydropyrimidines (DHPMs) from aromatic aldehydes, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and N-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)urea using molecular iodine as catalyst is described. The 1-substituted dihydropyrimidines were isolated in good to excellent yields (78-90%) within a short reaction time (4-6 h) at ambient temperature. The biological evaluation revealed that the newly synthesized compounds (4a-i and 5a-i) exhibited moderate antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37 RV.

Plasmodial GSK-3 is a potential new target for malaria therapy. For a structure-based design project, the three-dimensional information of the designated target is needed. Unfortunately, experimental structure data for plasmodial GSK-3 is not yet available. Homology building can be used to generate such three-dimensional structure data using structure information of a homologous protein. GSK-3 possesses a very flexible ATP-binding site, a fact reflected in the variety of X-ray structures of the human GSK-3[beta] which are deposited in the protein data base and are crystallized with different ligands. We used ten different ...
