Tricyclic Heteroaromatic Systems. 1,2,4-Triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalines and 1,2,4-Triazino[4,3-a]quinoxalines: Synthesis and Central Benzodiazepine Receptor Activity

Some 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalines 1–10 , and 1,2,4-triazino[4,3-a]quinoxalines 11–12 were prepared and biologically evaluated for their binding at the benzodiazepine receptor (BZR) in rat cortical membranes. The BZR affinity of 1–10 demonstrates that the presence of a proton acceptor at position-1 is important for the potency of a BZR ligand. On the other hand, the BZR inactivity of the 1,2,5-trione derivatives 11–12 shows that the right collocation of the essential L₂ lipophilic substituent is of paramount importance for receptor-ligand interaction.     

Synthesis of 2-(4-substitutedbenzyl-[1,4]diazepan-1-yl)-n-(1-methyl-4,5-dihydro-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinolin-7-yl)acetamides as inotropic agents

In an attempt to search for more potent positive inotropic agents, a series of N-(4,5-dihydro-1-methyl-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinolin-7-yl)-2-(substitutedbenzyl-[1,4]diazepan-1-yl)acetamides were synthesized and evaluated for positive inotropic activity by measuring left atrium stroke volume in isolated rabbit heart preparations. Some of these derivatives exhibited favorable activity compared with the standard drug, milrinone, among which 2-(4-(4-methylbenzyl)-[1,4]-diazepan-1-yl)-N-(4,5-dihydro-1-methyl-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinolin-7-yl)acetamide (6m) was the most potent, increasing stroke volume by 8.38±0.16% (milrinone 2.45± 0.06%) at 3 x 10(-5) m. The chronotropic effects of those compounds having inotropic effects were also evaluated in this work.     

Synthesis, structural characterization and biological evaluation of novel [1,2,4]triazolo [1,5-b][1,2,4]benzothiadiazine-benzothiazole conjugates as potential anticancer agents

Two series of 10-substituted 5,5-dioxo-5,10-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]benzothiadiazine 2-methyl/ethyl sulfanyl benzothiazole derivatives (5a-d) and 10-substituted 5,5-dioxo-5,10-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4] benzothiadiazine 2-phenoxy benzothiazole derivatives (16a-c) were synthesized and their structures confirmed by NMR, MS, IR and X-ray crystallography. These compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against 60 human tumour cell lines. One of the synthesized compounds (5b) exhibited significant inhibitory activity against most of the cell lines and has been further evaluated for the five-dose screening.

Synthesis and Antimicrobial Evaluation of Some New Thiazoline and Thiazolidinone Derivatives Incorporating [1,2,4]Triazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazole

Two new series of 3-[2-(3,4-disubstituted-2,3-dihydrothiazol-2-ylidene)hydrazonopropylidenyl]-2-(methylthio)-3H-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazole (6-29) and 3-[2-(3-substituted-4-oxothiazolidin-2-ylidene)hydrazonopropylidenyl]-2-(methylthio)-3H-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazole (30-33) were synthesised starting from 1-[2-(methylthio)-3H-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazol-3-yl] acetone N⁴-alkyl (aryl) thiosemicarbazones (2-5). Chemical structures of the compounds have been elucidated by different spectral data as well as elemental microanalysis. The newly synthesised compounds were tested for their in vitro antimicrobial activity using the standard agar cup diffusion method. Results revealed that most of the test compounds showed promising broad spectrum antibacterial and antifungal profiles against tested microorganisms, relative to references.     

Synthesis of some new quinoxalines and 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]-quinoxalines for evaluation of in vitro antitumor and antimicrobial activities

Two novel series of quinoxalines derived from 3-phenylquinoxalin-2(1H)-one and 2-hydrazino-3-phenylquinoxaline, namely 1-substituted-3-phenylquinoxaline-2(1H)-ones, 2a-c, 3a-d, and 4; 2-(3-oxo-3,3a,4,5,6,7-hexahydroindazol-2-yl)-3-phenylquinoxaline 6; N- cyclopentylidene or benzylidene-N'-(3-phenylquinoxaline-2-yl)hydrazines, 7 and 18; 1-substituted-4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalines, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, and 16 have been synthesized in order to evaluate their antitumor and antimicrobial activities. Preliminary screening at NCI showed that compounds 2b, 2c, 3b, 3c, and 9 exhibited a moderate to strong growth inhibition activity on various tumor panel cell lines between 10(-6) to 10(-5) molar concentrations. Compound 3b was the most active with a broad spectrum of activity. Compound 3c showed selectivity towards CNS-cancer SF-639, leukemia CCRF-CEM, and melanoma SK-MEL-5 (GI(50) = 4.03, 6.46, and 4.17 microM, respectively). On the other hand, the in vitro microbiological data revealed that the prepared compounds showed mild antimicrobial activity.     

Synthesis and pharmacological properties of new 3-ethoxycarbonyl-11H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,5-c][2,3]benzodiazepines

A series of new 3-ethoxycarbonyl-11H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,5-c][2,3]benzodiazepines was synthesized starting from the corresponding bicyclic 1-aryl-3,5-dihydro-7,8-dimethoxy-4H-2,3-benzodiazepin-4-ones (CFMs), previously described as noncompetitive AMPA-type glutamate receptor antagonists, more potent than GYKI 52466. New synthesized compounds proved to be able to protect against seizures induced by means of auditory stimulation in DBA/2 mice and compound 8f the most active of the series showed anticonvulsant properties comparable to GYKI 52466.     

Synthesis and Anticonvulsant Activity of 5‐Phenyl‐[1,2,4]‐triazolo[4,3‐a]quinolines

A series of novel 5‐phenyl‐[1,2,4]‐triazolo[4,3‐a]quinoline derivatives was synthesized by the cyclization of 2‐chloro‐4‐phenyl‐1,2‐dihydronaphthalene with formohydrazide. The starting material 2‐chloro‐4‐phenyl‐1,2‐dihydronaphthalene was synthesized from ethyl‐3‐oxo‐3‐phenylpropanoate and substituted aniline. Their anticonvulsant activities were evaluated by the maximal electroshock (MES) test and their neurotoxicity was evaluated by the rotarod neurotoxicity test (Tox). The maximal electroshock test showed that 7‐hexyloxy‐5‐phenyl‐[1,2,4]‐triazolo[4,3‐a]quinoline 4f was found to be the most potent compound with an ED₅₀ value of 6.5 mg/kg and a protective index (PI = ED₅₀ / TD₅₀) value of 35.1, which was much higher than the PI of the reference drug phenytoin.     

Quinoxaline chemistry. Part 16. 4-substituted anilino and 4-substituted phenoxymethyl pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines and N-[4-(pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalin-4-yl)amino and hydroxymethyl]benzoyl glutamates. Synthesis and evaluation of in vitro biological activity

Twenty eight pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines bearing at position 4 various substituents related to the moieties present in classical and non classical antifolic agents were prepared and evaluated in vitro for antiproliferative activity. In an in vitro screening performed at NCI, several compounds emerged as potent antiproliferative agents at concentrations ranging between 10 and 100 microM. Interestingly, some of these compounds proved active also against bovine and murine DHFR (Farmaco 53 (1998) 480). More recently, a compound of classical antifolate type has been reported to be a potent inhibitor of hDHFR in vitro (Farmaco 58 (2003) 51). We then synthesized new derivatives that, in our hands, were endowed with in vitro antiproliferative activities as low as 3.4 microM against a panel of cell lines derived from hematological and solid tumours. In addition, a complete screening of cytotoxicity, antiretroviral HIV-1 and antimicrobial activity has been carried out.     

Microwave Assistant One Pot Synthesis,Crystal Structure,Antifungal Activities and 3D‐QSAR of Novel 1,2,4‐Triazolo[4,3‐a]pyridines

A series of novel 1,2,4‐triazolo[4,3‐a]pyridines were synthesized, and their structures were characterized by ¹H NMR, MS, elemental analysis, and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. The antifungal activities were evaluated. The antifungal activity results indicated that the compound 2b , 2g , 2p , and 2i exhibited good activities. The activity of compound 2b , 2g , 2p , and 2i can compare with the commercial pesticide. The 3D‐QSAR model was developed using CoMFA method. Both the steric and electronic field distributions of CoMFA are in good agreement in this work and will be very helpful in designing a new set of analogues.     

Synthesis and Anticonvulsant Activity of 6‐Alkoxy‐[1,2,4]Triazolo[3,4‐a]Phthalazines

A new series of 6‐alkoxy‐[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4‐a]phthalazines ( 3a – 3v ) were synthesized and their anticonvulsant activity and neurotoxicity were evaluated by the maximal electroshock test and the rotarod test respectively. Significant anticonvulsant activity was displayed by a number of compounds. The most promising compounds 6‐(4‐chlorobenzyloxy)‐[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4‐a]phthalazine ( 3f) and 6‐heptyloxy‐[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4‐a]phthalazine ( 3s) showed a median effective dose of 7.1 and 11.0 mg/kg, and had protective index value of 5.2 and 8.0 respectively. The two compounds were further found to have potent activity against seizures induced by pentylenetetrazole, isoniazid, thiosemicarbazide, 3‐mercaptopropionic acid but not seizures induced by strychnine, indicating that the two compounds might function by enhancing gamma‐aminobutyric acid neurotransmission.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of certain new 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives

Certain new derivatives of 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines were synthesized through the reaction of 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-7-ol with ethyl bromoacetate to afford the ethyl acetate ester, which upon hydrazinolysis gives the corresponding hydrazide. The hydrazide is the key intermediate which was used for the synthesis of the target compounds. The structures of the new compounds were assigned by spectral and elemental methods of analyses. The synthesized compounds were tested for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities. Most of the tested compounds showed comparable results with those of ampicillin and fluconazole reference drugs.     

Synthesis and in vitro Evaluation of 1,2,4‐Triazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazine Derivatives as Thymidine Phosphorylase Inhibitors

In our lead finding program, a series of 1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazine derivatives were synthesized, and their in vitro thymidine phosphorylase inhibitory potential was explored. Among the different derivatives, compounds having keto group (C = O) at C7 and thioketo group (C = S) at C5 positions showed varying degrees of TP inhibitory activity comparable with positive control, 7‐deazaxanthine ( 7‐DX , 2 ) (IC₅₀ value = 42.63 μm ). Enzyme inhibition kinetics study suggested that compound IVn behaved as a mixed‐type inhibitor of the enzyme with respect to thymidine (dThd) as a variable substrate. Compound IVn was also found to inhibit PMA‐induced MMP‐9 expression in MDA‐MB‐231 cells at sublethal concentrations. Computational docking study was performed to illustrate the enzyme inhibition kinetics and to explore the ligand–enzyme interactions.     

Discriminative stimulus effects of L-838,417 (7-tert-butyl-3-(2,5-difluoro-phenyl)-6-(2-methyl-2H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-ylmethoxy)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine): Role of GABAA receptor subtypes

Previous reports suggest that γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA_A) receptors containing α1 subunits may play a pivotal role in mediating the discriminative stimulus effects of benzodiazepines (BZs). L-838,417 (7-tert-Butyl-3-(2,5-difluoro-phenyl)-6-(2-methyl-2H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-ylmethoxy)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine) is a GABA_A receptor modulator with intrinsic efficacy in vitro at α2, α3, and α5 subunit-containing GABA_A receptors, and little demonstrable intrinsic efficacy in vitro at α1 subunit-containing GABA_A receptors. The present study evaluated the discriminative stimulus effects of L-838,417 in order to determine the extent to which the α2, α3, and α5 subunit-containing GABA_A receptors contribute to the interoceptive effects of BZ-type drugs. Squirrel monkeys (Saimiri sciureus) were trained to discriminate L-838,417 (0.3 mg/kg, i.v.) from vehicle under a 5-response fixed-ratio schedule of food reinforcement. Under test conditions, L-838,417 administration resulted in dose-dependent increases in drug-lever responding that were antagonized by the BZ-site antagonist, flumazenil. Administration of non-selective BZs, compounds with 10-fold greater affinity for α1 subunit-containing GABA_A receptors compared to α2, α3, and α5 subunit-containing GABA_A receptors, barbiturates and ethanol (which modulate the GABA_A receptor via a non-BZ site), all resulted in a majority of responses on the L-838,417-paired lever (65-100% drug-lever responding). βCCT, an antagonist that binds with 20-fold greater affinity for α1 subunit-containing GABA_A receptors relative to α2, α3, and α5-containing GABA_A receptors, had no significant effect on the discriminative stimulus effects of L-838,417 or the L-838,417-like effects of diazepam or zolpidem. These data suggest that efficacy at α2, α3, and/or α5 subunit-containing GABA_A receptors likely are sufficient for engendering BZ-like discriminative stimulus effects.     

Synthesis and biological evaluation of pyridazino[4,3-b]indoles and indeno[1,2-c]pyridazines as new ligands of central and peripheral benzodiazepine receptors

A large number of pyridazino[4,3-b]indoles and indeno[1,2-c]pyridazines were synthesised and tested to evaluate their binding affinities at both central (CBR) and peripheral (PBR) benzodiazepine receptors. Relatively good PBR binding affinities were found for ligands belonging to the 3-arylmethyloxy-pyridazinoindole series, whereas only 2-aryl-indenopyridazines 7a, 8a and 10a display a weak binding affinity for CBR. To find out the main structural determinants affecting PBR affinity, a molecular modelling study based on the comparative analysis of the three-dimensional properties of four properly selected derivatives 24a, 3b, 18a and 10d, with those of highly active and selective PBR ligands, taken as reference, was performed.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of [1,2,4]Triazolo[3,4‐a]phthalazine and Tetrazolo[5,1‐a]phthalazine Derivatives Bearing Substituted Benzylpiperazine Moieties as Positive Inotropic Agents

Two series of [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4‐a]phthalazine and tetrazolo[5,1‐a]phthalazine derivatives bearing substituted benzylpiperazine moieties have been synthesized and evaluated for their positive inotropic activity by measuring left atrium stroke volume on isolated rabbit heart preparations. The majority of the derivatives exhibited better in vitro activity than the existing drug, milrinone, and 6‐((4‐(4‐methoxyphenyl)piperazin‐1‐yl)methyl)tetrazolo[5,1‐a]phthalazine. 8 m in particular was identified as the most potent with an increased stroke volume of 12.02 ± 0.20% (milrinone: 2.46 ± 0.07%) at a concentration of 3 × 10^–5 m . The chronotropic effects of the compounds that exhibited good potency were also evaluated.     

Characterization and preliminary use of 1-, 2- and 3-methyl-5-phenyl-7-chloro-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine as reaction intermediates

This paper reports synthesis and characterization, by spectroscopic methods, of three new N-methyl-5-phenyl-7-chloro-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine isomers 3a, 3b and 3c. For comparison purpose the 3-benzyl-5-phenyl-7-chloro-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine (7) was also prepared. Starting from the isomer mixture 3a-c and the chloroderivative 7, by nucleophilic substitution reaction with ethyl carbazate and subsequent intramolecular cyclization, the new tricyclic derivatives 5a-c and 9 were prepared and tested towards the benzodiazepine and adenosine A1 and A2A receptors.
