Abstract

Treatment of 4-(D-xylo-tetritol-1-y1)-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole (1) with one mole equivalent of tosyl chloride in pyridine solution, afforded the C-nucleoside analog; 4-(β-D-threofuranosyl)-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole (2) in 55% yield, as well as the byproduct 4-(4-chloro-4-deoxy-D-xylo-tetritol-1-y1)-2-pheny1-2 H-1,2,3-triazole (4). Treatment of the epimeric 4-(D-lyxo-tetritol-1-y1)-2-pheny1-2H-1,2,3-triazole (6) with tosyl chloride in pyridine solution afforded the anomeric C-nucleoside analog; 4-(δ-D-threofuranosy1)-2-pheny1-2H-1,2,3-triazole (7) in 29% yield, as well as the byproduct 4-(4-chloro-4-deoxy-D-lyxo-tetritol-1-y1)-2-pheny1-2 H-1,2,3-triazole (9). Similar treatment of 1 and 6 with trifluoromethanesulfonyl chloride in pyridine solution afforded 2 and 7, respectively. The structure and anomeric configuration of these compounds were determined by acetylation, NMR, NOE, and circular dichroism spectroscopy, as well as mass spectrometry.

Abstract

Treatment of 4-(D-gluco-pentitol-l-y1)-2-pheny1–2H-1,2,3-triazole (1) with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride in pyridine solution, afforded the homo-C-nucleoside analog, 4-(2,5-anhydro-D-gluco-pentitol-1-yl)-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole (2) as well as its partial p-toluenesulfonyl derivative (3). 4-(5-Chloro-5-deoxy-D-gluco-pentitol-1-yl)-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole (8), was isolated as a byproduct from the reaction.

Efficient RNA-targeting by the introduction of aromatic stacking in the duplex major groove via 5-(1-phenyl-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-2′-deoxyuridines

Three pyrimidine nucleosides with differently substituted phenyltriazoles attached to the 5-position were prepared by Cu(I)-assisted azide–alkyne cycloadditions (CuAAC) and incorporated into oligonucleotides. Efficient π–π-stacking between two or more phenyltriazoles in the major groove was found to increase the thermal stability of a DNA:RNA duplex significantly. The best stacking, and most stable duplex, was obtained by a sulfonamide substituted derivative.     

Potential bioisosteres of β-uracilalanines derived from 1H-1,2,3-triazole-C-carboxylic acids

The 1H-1,2,3-triazole-originated derivatives of willardiine were obtained by: (i) construction of the 1H-1,2,3-triazole ring in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the uracil-derived azides and the carboxylate-bearing alkynes or α-acylphosphorus ylide, or (ii) N-alkylation of the uracil derivative with the 1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylate-derived mesylate. The latter method offered: (i) reproducible results, (ii) a significant reduction of amounts of auxiliary materials, (iii) reduction in wastes and (iv) reduction in a number of manual operations required for obtaining the reaction product. Compound 6a exhibited significant binding affinity to hHS1S2I ligand-binding domain of GluR2 receptor (EC₅₀ = 2.90 µM) and decreased viability of human astrocytoma MOG-G-CCM cells in higher extent than known AMPA antagonist GYKI 52466.     

Remarkable enantioselective α-amination in 1-phenyl-2-(N-alkylamino)-1-propanol

(1R,2R)-1-Phenyl-1-alkyl/arylamino-2-(N-alkylamino)propane hydrochloride salts have been synthesized with high degree of enantiomeric purity from (1S,2R)-(+)-1-phenyl-2-(N-alkylamino)-1-propanol through the corresponding chloro derivatives. This reaction sequence involves three inversions with overall inversion of configuration at C-1.     

Synthesis and structure–activity relationships of 2-phenyl-1-[(pyridinyl- and piperidinylmethyl)amino]-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propan-2-ols as antifungal agents

Continuous efforts on the synthesis and structure–activity relationships (SARs) studies of modified 1-benzylamino-2-phenyl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propan-2-ols as antifungal agents, allowed identification of new 1-[(pyridinyl- and piperidinylmethyl)amino] derivatives with MIC₈₀ values ranging from 1410.0 to 23.0 ng mL^?1 on Candida albicans. These results confirmed both the importance of π–π stacking and hydrogen bonding interactions in the active site of CYP51-C. albicans.     

CD and NMR assignment of the anomeric configuration of 4-(5-deoxy-α,β-l-arabinofuranosyl)-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole C-nucleoside analogs

Acid-catalyzed dehydrative cyclization of 5-deoxy-l-manno-pentitol-1-yl)-2-heptulose bisphenylhydrazone and subsequent reflux with copper sulfate gave an anomeric mixture of 4-(5-deoxy-α,β-l-arabinofuranosyl)-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole C-nucleoside analogs. The mixture was separated by chromatography, and the anomeric compositions configurations of the components were determined by CD, NMR, mass spectroscopy, and acylation.     

Synthesis of novel (R)-4-fluorophenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazoles: A new class of α-glucosidase inhibitors

Diabetes is a non-communicable disease, which occurs either due to the lack of insulin or the inability of the human body to recognize it. The recent data indicates an increase in the trend of people diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). α-Glucosidase inhibitors are known to reduce the impact of carbohydrates on blood glucose level and prevent the digestion of carbohydrates. α-glucosidase inhibitors hold great potential for the treatment of T2DM. In search of better α-glucosidase inhibitors, a series of novel (R)-4-fluorophenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole derivatives were synthesized (6 and 8a-n) and evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity in vitro. All new compounds were characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ¹⁹F NMR, ESI-MS, and where applicable by single crystal X-ray diffraction (8 m). A preliminary structure-activity relationship suggested that the presence of 1H-1,2,3-triazole ring in (R)-4-fluorophenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole derivatives has remarkable contribution in the overall activity. Molecular docking studies were carried out to investigate the binding mode of compounds within the active site of the α-glucosidase enzyme. Docking results are in complete agreement with the experimental finding. This study unravelled a new class of triazole derivatives with α-glucosidase inhibitory activity.     

Design,synthesis, antiviral and cytostatic activity of ω-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)(polyhydroxy)alkylphosphonates as acyclic nucleotide analogues

The efficient synthesis of a new series of polyhydroxylated dibenzyl ω-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)alkylphosphonates as acyclic nucleotide analogues is described starting from dibenzyl ω-azido(polyhydroxy)alkylphosphonates and selected alkynes under microwave irradiation. Selected O,O-dibenzylphosphonate acyclonucleotides were transformed into the respective phosphonic acids. All compounds were evaluated in vitro for activity against a broad variety of DNA and RNA viruses and for cytostatic activity against murine leukemia L1210, human T-lymphocyte CEM and human cervix carcinoma HeLa cells. Compound (1S,2S)-16b exhibited antiviral activity against Influenza A H3N2 subtype (EC₅₀ = 20 μM—visual CPE score; EC₅₀ = 18 μM—MTS method; MCC >100 μM, CC₅₀ >100 μM) in Madin Darby canine kidney cell cultures (MDCK), and (1S,2S)-16k was active against vesicular stomatitis virus and respiratory syncytial virus in HeLa cells (EC₅₀ = 9 and 12 μM, respectively). Moreover, compound (1R,2S)-16l showed activity against both herpes simplex viruses (HSV-1, HSV-2) in HEL cell cultures (EC₅₀ = 2.9 and 4 μM, respectively) and feline herpes virus in CRFK cells (EC₅₀ = 4 μM) but at the same time it exhibited cytotoxicity toward uninfected cell (MCC ⩾ 4 μM). Several other compounds have been found to inhibit proliferation of L1210, CEM as well as HeLa cells with IC₅₀ in the 4–50 μM range. Among them compounds (1S,2S)- and (1R,2S)-16l were the most active (IC₅₀ in the 4–7 μM range).     

Design and Synthesis of 2′-Deoxy-2′-[(1,2,3)Triazol-1-Yl]Uridines Using Click Chemistry Approach

A series of novel nucleosides bearing a 1,2,3-triazole moiety at the 2′-position of the sugar moiety has been synthesized starting from 2′-azidouridine and using the copper (I)-catalyzed Huisgen–Sharpless–Meldal 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. The reactions proceeded in overall yield of 52–82% and gave almost exclusively the 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles. The 2′-azidouridine was synthesized from uridine in two steps, and reacted with a variety of differently substituted alkynes to give the desired 2′-triazole-substituted uridine derivatives.     

The ability of H-2+ and H-2− cell lines to induce or be lysed by Cytotoxic T cells

We have studied the T cell-mediated lysis of two C58 lymphoma lines: R1(TL⁺), which bears serologically detectable H-2^k and TL1,2,3 antigens, and R1(TL^–), an immunoselected variant which lacks these antigens. Unlike R1(TL⁺) cells, the variant cells are not sensitive to specific lysis by T cells directed against either H-2^k or minor H antigens of C58 mice. An injection of R1(TL⁺) cells into allogeneic H-2-identical or H-2-different mice primes for an excellent secondary cytotoxic response in vitro to R1(TL⁺); but not to R1(TL^–). Immunization in vivo and in vitro with R1(TL)^–) leads to little or no priming or generation of cytotoxic T cells. Both cell lines, however, are sensitive to nonspecific lysis by cytotoxic cells in the presence of PHA or Con A, although even under these conditions, R1(TL⁺) is killed more effectively than is R1(TL^–). We conclude that R1(TL^–) does not express any form of H-2 antigen which can be detected by immunization or by sensitivity to cytotoxic T cells.

5-Ethynyl-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-1H-[1,2,3]triazole-4-carboxylic acid amide (ETCAR) and its analogues: synthesis and cytotoxic properties

Efficient Pd(0)-catalysed synthesis of 5-alkynyl-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-1H-[1,2,3]triazole-4-carboxylic acid amide depends on the presence of different protecting groups of the ribose moiety. Peracetylated 5-iodo substrate (15) couples with terminal alkynes or trimethyl-[(tributylstannyl)ethynyl]silane in 50-71% and 72% yield (ETCAR), respectively, although its hydrodehalogenation to 19 is noticeable. On the other hand, hydrodehalogenation of acetonide (16) predominates over coupling with terminal alkyne and slightly decreases a yield of cross-coupling reaction with trimethyl[(tributylstannyl)ethynyl]silane. Alternative conditions of reaction with terminal alkynes, to exclude so far identified hydride sources to produce hydridopalladium species, have been established for acetonide 16 and allowed to achieve 72% of coupling. Fluoromethyl derivative (42) was prepared from its 5-hydroxymethyl precursor by fluorination with DAST. Additionally, X-ray structural analysis of 42 was performed. All 1,2,3-triazolonucleosides and two synthesized cycloSal-pronucleotides were evaluated for cytotoxic activity against K562, HeLa and HUVEC cells.
