With the aim to explore the potentiality of new chemical scaffolds for the design of new antimalarials, a set of new indeno[2,1-c]quinolines bearing different basic heads has been synthesized and tested in vitro against chloroquine sensitive (CQ-S) and chloroquine resistant (CQ-R) strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Most of the synthesized compounds exhibited a moderate antiplasmodial activity, inhibiting the growth of both CQ-S and CQ-R strains of P. falciparum with IC50 ranging from 0.24 to 6.9 μM and with a very low resistance index. The most potent compounds (1.2–1.3-fold the CQ on the W-2 strain) can be considered as promising ‘lead compounds’ to be further optimized to improve efficacy and selectivity against Plasmodia.  相似文献

Schiff bases (imines or azomethines) are versatile ligands synthesized from the condensation of amino compounds with active carbonyl groups and used for many pharmaceutical and medicinal applications. In our study, we aimed to determine the cytotoxic, antifungal and larvicidal activities of biologically potent bis-sulfonamide Schiff base derivatives that were re-synthesized by us. For this aim, 16 compounds were re-synthesized and tested for their cytotoxic, antifungal and larvicidal properties. Among this series, compounds A1B2 , A1B4 , A4B2 , A4B3 , and A4B4 were shown to have cytotoxic activity against tested cancer lung cell line (A549). The most potent antifungal activity was observed in compounds A2B1 and A2B2 against all fungi. A1B1 showed the strongest larvicidal effect at all concentrations at the 72nd h (100% mortality). These obtained results demonstrate that these type of bis-substituted compounds might be used as biologically potent pharmacophores against different types of diseases.  相似文献

In the present paper, a novel series of dibenzofuran-piperazine derivatives were synthesized via the treatment of N-(2-methoxy-3-dibenzofuranyl)-2-chloroacetamide with substituted piperazine derivatives. The chemical structures of the compounds were elucidated by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectral data; elemental analysis and HPLC analysis. Each derivative was evaluated for antiplatelet activity and anticholinesterase activity. Compound 2?m with 2-furoyl moiety exhibited high percentage inhibition as much as standard drug aspirin on arachidonic acid (AA)-induced platelet aggregation. None of the compounds presented significant inhibitor effect on collagen-induced platelet aggregation. Furthermore, the anticholinesterase activity of the compounds was determined and they did not show promising inhibitor activity compared with standard drug donepezil.  相似文献

Three new hydroxylated xanthones with prenyl or geranyl substituents, compounds 1-3, were isolated from the twig bark of Garcinia xanthochymus, along with the four known compounds 1,4,5,6-tetrahydroxy-7,8-diprenylxanthone (4), 1,3,5,6-tetrahydroxy-4,7,8-triprenylxanthone (5), garciniaxanthone E (6), and 6-prenylapigenin (7). Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D- and 2D-NMR as well as HR-MS experiments. All compounds showed moderate cytotoxicities against breast cancer (MDA-MB-435S) and lung adenocarcinoma (A549) cell lines, but lacked antifungal activity against Candida albicans.  相似文献

In the present study we have synthesized (4-nitrophenyl)-[2-(substituted phenyl)-benzoimidazol-1-yl]-methanones, (2-bromophenyl)-[2-(substituted phenyl)-benzoimidazol-1-yl]-methanone analogues (1–14) and evaluated them for their antimicrobial and antiviral potential. The results of antimicrobial screening indicated that none of the synthesized compounds were effective against the tested bacterial strains. Compounds 3, 11, 13 and compounds 5, 11, 12 were found to be active against Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans respectively, and may be further developed as antifungal agents. Furthermore, evaluation against a panel of different viruses pointed out the selective activity of compounds 5 and 6 against vaccinia virus and Coxsackie virus B4.  相似文献

The Asteraceae family comprises ca. 1000 genera, mainly distributed in Asia and Europe. Saussurea DC., as the largest subgenus of this family, comprises ca. 400 species worldwide, of which ca. 300 species occur in China. Most plants in China grow wild in the alpine zone of the Qingzang Plateau and adjacent regions at elevations of 4000 m. Plants of the genus Saussurea (Asteraceae) are used in both traditional Chinese folk medicine and Tibet folklore medicine, since they are efficacious in relieving internal heat or fever, harmonizing menstruation, invigorating blood circulation, stopping bleeding, alleviating pain, increasing energy, and curing rheumatic arthritis. A large number of biologically active compounds have been isolated from this genus. This review shows the chemotaxonomy of these compounds (215 compounds) such as sesquiterpenoids (101 compounds), flavonoids (19 compounds), phytosterols (15 compounds), triterpenoids (25 compounds), lignans (32 compounds), phenolics (23 compounds), and chlorophylls (11 compounds). Biological activities (anti‐inflammatory, anticancer, antitumor, hepatoprotective, anti‐ulcer, cholagogic, immunosuppressive, spasmolytic, antimicrobial, antiparasitic, antifeedant, CNS depressant, antioxidant, etc.) of these compounds, including structure–activity relationships, are also discussed.  相似文献

Some N-(3,5-di-/1,3,5-trimethylpyrazole-4-yl)-4-substitutedbenzamide derivatives were prepared as possible antiociceptive-antimicrobial agents. New amide derivatives (312) were synthesized by reacting 4-amino-3,5-di and 1,3,5-trimethylpyrazoles with 4-substitutedbenzoyl chlorides. Hotplate and tail-immersion tests were used for the determination of the antinociceptive activity. Morphine, was used as a standard test drug. All compounds were administered at a dose of 100 mg/kg ip and some of them had significant antinociceptive activity in both tests. Compound 10 (N-(1,3,5-trimethylpyrazole-4-yl)-4-bromobenzamide), was the most active one in both tests among the compounds. The antinociceptive activity of the compounds 10, 11 (N-(1,3,5-trimethylpyrazole-4-yl)-4-chlorobenzamide), and 12 (N-(1,3,5-trimethylpyrazole-4-yl)-4-fluorobenzamide), started at 30 minutes and continued up to 150 minutes in the hotplate test. Also compounds were tested for their in vitro antimicrobial activity, but exhibited weak antibacterial activity.  相似文献

Phytotoxic microbial metabolites produced by certain phytopathogenic fungi and bacteria, and a group of phytotoxic plant metabolites including Amaryllidacea alkaloids and some derivatives of these compounds were evaluated for algicide, bactericide, insecticide, fungicide, and herbicide activities in order to discover natural compounds for potential use in the management and control of several important agricultural and household structural pests. Among the various compounds evaluated: i) ophiobolin A was found to be the most promising for potential use as a selective algicide; ii) ungeremine was discovered to be bactericidal against certain species of fish pathogenic bacteria; iii) cycasin caused significant mortality in termites; iv) cavoxin, ophiobolin A, and sphaeropsidin A were most active towards species of plant pathogenic fungi; and v) lycorine and some of its analogues (1‐O‐acetyllycorine and lycorine chlorohydrate) were highly phytotoxic in the herbicide bioassay. Our results further demonstrated that plants and microbes can provide a diverse and natural source of compounds with potential use as pesticides.  相似文献

Toddalia asiatica (L.) Lam. is extensively used in traditional medicinal systems by various cultures. Despite its frequent use in traditional medicine, there is still a paucity of scientific information on T. asiatica growing on the tropical island of Mauritius. Therefore, the present study was designed to appraise the pharmacological and phytochemical profile of extracts (methanol, ethyl acetate and water) and essential oil obtained from aerial parts of T. asiatica. Biological investigation involved the evaluation of in vitro antioxidant and enzyme inhibitory potentials. The chemical profile of the EO was determined using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis, while for the extracts, the total phenolic (TPC) and flavonoid content were quantified as well as their individual phenolic compounds by LC/MS/MS. Quinic acid, fumaric acid, chlorogenic acid, quercitrin and isoquercitrin were the main compounds in the extracts. Highest total phenolic (82.5±0.94 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE/g)) and flavonoid (43.8±0.31 mg rutin equivalent (RE/g)) content were observed for the methanol extract. The GC/MS analysis has shown the presence of 26 compounds with linalool (30.9 %), linalyl acetate (20.9 %) and β-phellandrene (7.9 %) being most abundant components in the EO. The extracts and EO showed notable antioxidant properties, with the methanol extract proved to be superior source of antioxidant compounds. Noteworthy anti-acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and anti-butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) effects were recorded for the tested samples, while only the methanol and ethyl acetate extracts were active against tyrosinase. With respect to antidiabetic effects, the extracts and EO were potent inhibitors of α-glucosidase, while modest activity was recorded against α-amylase. Docking results showed that linalyl acetate has the highest affinity to interact with the active site of BChE with docking score of −6.25 kcal/mol. The findings amassed herein act as a stimulus for further investigations of this plant as a potential source of bioactive compounds which can be exploited as phyto-therapeutics.  相似文献

A novel series of 4-substituted 1-{[4-(10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin-5-yl)phenyl]methylidene}thiosemicarbazide, 4a-4n, was synthesized in 9-21% yield by the condensation of 4-(10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin-5-yl)benzaldehyde (3) with various substituted thiosemicarbazides in presence of catalytic amount of AcOH. These compounds were assayed for in vitro antiamoebic activity, and the results showed that out of 14 compounds 9 were found with IC(50) values lower than metronidazole corresponding to 1.05- to 4.7-fold increase in activity. MTT Assay showed that all the compounds are nontoxic to human kidney epithelial cell line. 4-(m-Toluidinyl)-1-{[4-(10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin-5-yl)phenyl]methylidene}thiosemicarbazide (4h) showed the highest antiamoebic activity with least cytotoxicity. Some of the compounds were screened for their antimalarial activities and ability to inhibit beta-haematin formation, but none of them showed an activity better than chloroquine and quinine. Only one compound out of six showed an activity comparable to standard drug.  相似文献

We have performed quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) and quantitative activity–activity relationship (QAAR) studies for aryltriazolylhydroxamates having antimalarial activity data against both chloroquine-sensitive (D6 clone) and chloroquine-resistant (W2 clone) strains of Plasmodium falciparum to understand the relationships between the biological activity and molecular properties for the design of new compounds. The QSAR studies were performed using 35 compounds among which 26 molecules were taken using k-means clustering technique in the training set for the derivation of the QSAR models and nine molecules were kept as the test-set compounds to evaluate the predictive ability of the derived models. The chemometric tool used for the analysis was the genetic function approximation. The developed models were analysed in terms of their predictive ability, and comparable results were obtained for cross-validated predictive variance (Q 2) and externally predicted variance (R 2 pred) values (0.761 and 0.829, respectively, for the D6 model, 0.708 and 0.748, respectively, for the W2 model and 0.984 and 0.982, respectively for the QAAR model). The QSAR models suggest that the number of methylene groups (between the triazolyl and hydroxamate moieties) and partially negatively charged surface areas of the molecules are important parameters for the antimalarial activity.  相似文献

A total of 17 resveratrol (=(E)-5-[2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethenyl]benzene-1,3-diol) derivatives were synthesized from resveratrol (RES) through a facile approach. Among them, 13 compounds, 2 and 6-17, were reported for the first time, while 1 and 3-5 had already been reported several years ago. The cytotoxic activities of these compounds were evaluated against human nasopharyngeal epidermoid tumor cell line KB, and compounds 1 and 8-11 showed strong anticancer activities in vitro, comparable with that of 5-fluorouracil, an anticancer drug. On the basis of the experimental data obtained, structure-activity relationships are discussed.  相似文献

为了探究生姜化学成分的抗菌活性及初步构效关系,采用色谱法从生姜中分离得到6个姜辣素类化合物,采用波谱法对这6个成分进行鉴定,分别为5-hydroxy-1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-4-decen-3-one(1)、5-hydroxy-1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-4-dodecen-3-one(2)、5-hydroxy-1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-4-tetradecane-3-one(3)、[6]-姜酚(4)、[8]-姜酚(5)和[10]-姜酚(6)。采用抗菌纸片扩散法测定6个化合物对15株病原菌株的抗菌活性。结果表明化合物1和4抗菌活性最好,而6对所有菌株均无活性。初步构效关系分析表明:烯醇型化合物对革兰氏阳性菌的抗菌活性优于姜酚型化合物;而姜酚型化合物对革兰氏阴性菌的抗菌活性优于烯醇型化合物。此外,姜辣素类成分脂肪链的长度增加,可能导致抗菌活性降低。  相似文献

Chemical characterization as well as antioxidant and anti-tumor activity are reported for isolated metabolites from Teucrium polium L. (Lamiaceae). Structures were identified using standard MS and NMR spectroscopic methods. Sesquiterpene absolute stereochemistry was determined based on a modified Mosher’s reaction. Biological activity was evaluated by a cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) assay and select compounds screened for anti-tumor activity. (1R,4S,10R) 10,11-dimethyl-dicyclohex-5(6)-en-1,4-diol-7-one and (R)-mandelonitrile-β-laminaribioside, together with ten previously reported compounds were identified. Antioxidant versus tumor-inhibition relationships was examined.  相似文献

This work investigates whether the two 1,5-benzodiazepine compounds: 4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,5-benzodiazepin-2-one (RG0501) and Benzopyrano [4,3-c] 1,5-benzodiazepine (RG0502) have any neuropharmacological activities. Diazepam and Flunitrazepam were used as drug references. The investigational 1,5-BDZ were tested in vivo for potentiating hexobarbital-induced sleep and pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizures. Our study demonstrated that the increase of sleep duration was significantly higher with RG0501 as compared to RG0502. However, RG0502 anticonvulsant effect was more pronounced than that of RG0501 in the range dose of 6.25-37.5 mg.kg-1. From the 50 mg.kg-1 dose, RG0502 offered a protection against clonic-tonic seizures as well as lethality (p ≤ 0.05). The results showed that the required doses to obtain a pharmacological activity were more than those of the references. This difference could be related to the lack of specific substituants responsible for the pharmacological activity in the tested compounds.  相似文献

Alkylphosphocholines (APC) with one or more methylene groups in the alkyl chain replaced by oxygen atoms or carbonyl groups, or both have been assembled modularly using omega-diols as central building blocks. Out of 25 new compounds of this kind, 11 were evaluated for their antiproliferative activity on four cell lines and compared with miltefosine to evaluate their hemolytic activity (HA) and cytotoxicity on non-tumoral cells (MT2), used as markers of adverse effects. Compound 13 was more active on cancer cell lines than on non-tumoral cells and the data were similar for MTT and thymidine incorporation assays. It had less HA than miltefosine. Compound 13 could therefore be a candidate for the preparation of compounds with higher cytotoxicity on cancer cells and lower general toxicity.  相似文献

Preparation of dopamine derivatives was carried out as a response to the increasing demand for new lipophilized antioxidants in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. A large series of dopamine esters (DA-C3 to DA-C18:1) with increasing lipophilicity was synthesized using lipase from Candida antarctica (Novozyme 435) as a biocatalyst. The highest conversion yield (52.75%) was reached when caprylic acid (DA-C8) was used as acyl donor. Synthesized compounds were purified and evaluated for their antioxidant activity using the DPPH and the ABTS tests. Results showed that esterification had little effect on radical-scavenging capacity. However, long chain fatty acid esters displayed higher protective effect of oil against oxidation at 70 °C as compared to the parent dopamine or to the BHT. The hemolytic activity of dopamine esters was studied. Middle chain length derivatives (DA-C8 and DA-C12) of dopamine and oleic acid derivative (DA-C18:1) showed the highest hemolytic activity against human erythrocyte. The antimicrobial activities of dopamine esters were also evaluated using well diffusion and minimal inhibition concentration methods. Among all the tested compounds, DA-C8 and DA-C12 exhibited the highest antibacterial activities. These results open up potential applications by using dopamine derivatives as antioxidants and antimicrobial compounds in cosmetic, food and pharmaceutical industries.  相似文献

The grape is a matrix rich in bioactive compounds and its production generates large quantities of by-products, such as grape stems, which, to date, present low commercial value. However, there is a growing interest in the application of this material as a source of phenolic compounds. Therefore, the present study aims at assessing the phytochemical profile of (poly)phenolic extracts of white Portuguese grape stem varieties produced in the Região Demarcada do Douro (Portugal). The antioxidant activity determined by several assays, as well as the antimicrobial activity using the disc diffusion method against human gastrointestinal pathogenic bacteria of the hydromethanolic extracts, were evaluated. This work presents very positive results as the rich composition in phenolic compounds (94.71–123.09 mg GA−1 and 0.02–73.79 mg g−1 for the total phenol content and for individual phenolics, respectively) presented by grape stems can explain the high antioxidant (0.37–1.17 mmol Trolox g−1) and antimicrobial activities against, essentially, Gram-positive bacteria, and in some cases with higher efficacy than commercial antibiotics. Thus, demonstrating that this wine by-product should deserve greater attention from the pharmaceutical industries due to its excellent biological properties and characteristics not yet applied.  相似文献

Two series of cationic Schiff base surfactants, namely, 2‐(benzylideneamino)‐3‐(2‐oxo‐2‐alkoxyethyl)‐1,3‐benzoimidazol‐3‐ium bromide (I A–D ) and 2‐[(4‐methoxybenzylidene) amino]‐3‐(2‐oxo‐2‐alkoxyethyl)‐1,3‐benzoimidazol‐3‐ium bromide (II A–D ) were prepared. The chemical structures of the prepared Schiff bases were recognized by elemental analysis, FTIR, H NMR, C13‐NMR and GC/MS spectra. The surface activities of the synthesized Schiff base cationic surfactants showed their tendency towards adsorption at the air/water interface. The adsorption tendency was estimated from the values of surface tension and the depression of surface tension at the critical micelle concentration. The studied surfactants were evaluated as antimicrobial agents against pathogenic and sulfur‐reducing bacteria using inhibition zone diameters and minimum inhibition concentration values. The synthesized cationic benzoimidazolium Schiff base cationic surfactants showed good antimicrobial activities against the tested microorganisms including Gram positive, Gram negative as well as fungi. The synthesized compounds were tested for the activity as corrosion inhibitors against carbon steel corrosion in 0.5 M HCl at 200 and 400 ppm. The promising inhibition efficiency of these compounds against the sulfur‐reducing bacteria facilitates them to be applicable in the petroleum field as new categories of Sulfur Reducing Bacteria biocides. The inhibition efficiencies of the tested compounds showed good inhibition and protection of the carbon steel. The corrosion inhibition tendency correlated to the surface activity and chemical structure of the compounds.  相似文献

Many lignans and neolignans have served as lead compounds for the development of new drugs. Perhaps the best known example is podophyllotoxin, an antimitotic compound that binds to tubulin. Etoposide and teniposide are derived from podophyllotoxin, but their antitumoural activity is due to inhibition of topoisomerase II. Combination of both pharmacophores has led to compounds with a dual mechanism of action, such as azatoxin. Dihydrobenzofuran neolignans, based on the natural lead 3,4-di-O-methylcedrusin, have also been investigated as potential antitumoural agents; the dimerisation product of caffeic acid methyl ester was the most active compound. Here too, he cytotoxic activity was due to inhibition of tubulin polymerisation. In addition, the same compounds showed antiangiogenic activity. Podophyllotoxin, as well as other types of lignans, such as dibenzylbutyrolactones related to arctigenin, dibenzocyclooctadiene-type lignans, and dibenzylbutanes, have been explored as leads for antiviral agents (also including HIV). Synthetic 8.O.4-neolignans have been evaluated for their antileishmanial and antifungal properties. Detailed study of the antifungal properties of the phenylpropanoid moieties has resulted in the design of highly active arylpropanoid derivatives. Other examples where lignans have been used as lead compounds include enzyme inhibitors of phosphodiesterase IV and V, and 5-lipoxygenase, and for the development of hypolipidemic and antirheumatic agents.  相似文献
