Synthesis And Biological Activity Of Substituted 4H-1,4-Benzothiazines,Their Sulfones,And Ribofuranosides

The present article describes the synthesis of new 4H-1,4-benzothiazines via condensation and oxidative cyclization of substituted 2-aminobenzenethiols with β-diketones/β-ketoesters in dimethyl sulfoxide. The oxidation of these synthesized 4H-1,4-benzothiazines with 30% hydrogen peroxide in glacial acetic acid yielded 4H-1,4-benzothiazine sulfones and the reaction of these synthesized benzothiazines with sugar (β-D-ribofuranose-1-acetate-2,3,5-tribenzoate) afforded the new ribofuranosides. These compounds were evaluated for their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities (using broth microdilution method). The structural assignments of the synthesized compounds were made on the basis of elemental analyses and spectroscopic data.     

Microbial Synthesis of Purine Arabinosides and Their Biological Activity

A simple method for the synthesis of various purine arabinosides from purine bases and uracil arabinoside by microbial transarabinosylation is described. A wet cell paste of Enterobacter aerogenes AJ 11125 showed a wide substrate specificity range for purine bases. Not only naturally occurring purine bases such as adenine and hypoxanthine but also unnatural bases such as 6-thioguanine and 2-chlorohypoxanthine were catalyzed to give the corresponding purine arabinosides. The enzymatically synthesized purine arabinosides were isolated from the reaction mixtures and identified by physicochemical means. The biological activities of the compounds were investigated and it was found that thioguanine arabinoside and 2-methyladenine arabinoside have potent activity against Hela cells, and their ED₅₀ were 10.5 and 21.5 μg/ml, respectively.

Synthesis of Lipid Derivatives of Pyrrole Polyamide and Their Biological Activity

Novel fatty acyl and phospholipid derivatives of pyrrole polyamide were synthesized. Their cytotoxicity against a cancer cell line of MT-4 cells and those infected by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was examined. Although no anti-HIV activity was found, their cytotoxicitty against the cancer cells was significantly enhanced by introducing a lipophilic group into the pyrrole polyamide.     

Solvent-Free Synthesis of Pyrimidine Nucleoside-Aminophosphonate Hybrids and Their Biological Activity Evaluation

A novel and highly efficient one-pot three-component synthesis of α-aminophosphonates under neat condition was developed. By employing this method, hybrid compounds of aminophosphonate with pyrimidine nucleosides were synthesized in good to excellent yields starting from 5-formyl-2′-deoxyuridine, aniline and dimethyl phosphite. The antiviral and antileishmanial activities of these novel hybrid compounds were also studied but none were found to be active.     

Synthesis and Biological Activity of Some Unsaturated 6-Azauracil Acyclonucleosides

A useful route is described for obtaining Z and E unsaturated alkylating agents 3 and 4. Coupling 6-azauracils 5 and 6 with unsaturated alkylating agent followed by the deprotection with H⁺ resin gave acyclonucleosides 11–14 in good overall yields. Unsaturated acyclonucleosides phosphonates 19 and 20 were prepared using potassium carbonate as base and 4-bromobut-2-enyl diethyl phosphonate 16 as the alkylating agent. The introduction of a propargyl group at the N-3 position of acyclonucleosides 7, 8, 17, 18, 19, and 20 was achieved using potassium carbonate in DMF.     

Synthesis and Biological Activity of Some Bromophenols and Their Derivatives Including Natural Products

In addition to the first synthesis of the natural bromophenol butyl 2-(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate ( 1 ), indene derivatives 34 and 35 were synthesized from 3-phenylpropenal derivatives in BBr₃ medium. Five known natural bromophenols and some derivatives were synthesized by known methods. Cholinesterase (ChEs) inhibitors reduce the breakdown of acetylcholine and are used in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and dementia symptoms. The inhibition effects of all obtained compounds were examined towards acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and α-glycosidase enzymes. All synthesized compounds demonstrated the strong inhibition effects against both cholinergic enzymes. For determination of Ki values of novel bromophenols Lineweaver-Burk graphs were obtained. Ki values were found in the ranging of 0.13–14.74 nM for AChE, 5.11–23.95 nM for BChE, and 63.96–206.78 nM for α-glycosidase, respectively. All bromophenols and their derivatives exhibit effective inhibition profile when compared to positive controls.

Abstract

Hydroxymethyl analogs of 5-benzylacyclouridine (BAU) and 5-benzyloxybenzylacyclouridine (BBAU) were synthesized by the condensation of appropriately blocked 2-(chloromethyl)glycerols with substituted 2, 4-dimethoxypyrimidines. The HM derivatives were found to be potent inhibitors of the enzyme uridine phosphorylase and to potentiate significantly the growth-inhibiting action of FdUrd in cell culture.

Photoaffinity-labeled Auxins: Synthesis and Biological Activity
