Synthesis and activity of 3-(isoxazolin-5-yl)- and 3-(isoxazol-4-yl)cephalosporins.

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxide with 3-vinylcephalosporin provided diastereomeric isomers of 3-(isoxazolin-5-yl)cephalosporin. Cycloaddition of nitrile oxide with 3-(dimethylamino-vinyl)cephalosporin gave 3-(isoxazol-4-yl)cephalosporin. These semisynthetic cephalosporins with an aminothiazole in the C-7 side chain showed moderate antibacterial activities.     

Synthesis of biologically active 1'-(2-oxo-2H-benzopyran-6-yl)- 5'-hydroxy-2'-methylindole-3'-amido-2"-phenyl-thiazolidene-4"-ones

6-Aminocoumarins on refluxing with ethyl acetoacetate in 1,2-dichloroethane gave two products: 3'-(2-oxo-2H-benzopyran-6-yl-amino)-but-2'-enoic acid ethyl ester 2a-c and N-(-2-oxo-2H-benzopyran-6-yl)-3'-oxo-butyramide 3a-c. Compounds 2a-c on treatment with 1,4-benzoquinone in N2-atmosphere yielded 1'-( 2-oxo-2H-benzopyran-6-yl)-5'-hydroxy-2'-methyl-3'-carbethoxyindoles 4a-c, which on further treatment with hydrazine hydrate gave 1'-(2-oxo-2H-benzopyran-6-yl)-5'-hydroxy-2'-methylindole-3'-acid hydrazides 5a-c. These acid hydrazides were treated with benzaldehyde to give 1'-(2-oxo-2H-benzopyran-6-yl)-5'-hydroxy-2'-methylindole-3'-benzylidene hydrazides 6a-c, which on further treatment with mercaptoacetic acid in 1,4-dioxane yielded 1'-(2-oxo-2H-benzopyran-6-yl)-5'-hydroxy-2'-methylindole-3'-amido-2"-phenylthiazolidene-4"-ones 7a-c. The structures of the compounds have been established on the basis of spectral and analytical data. All compounds have been screened for their antimicrobial activity and have been found to exhibit significant antibacterial and antifungal activities.

A series of novel 5-amino-6-fluoro-1-[(1R,2S)-2-fluorocyclopropan-1-yl]-8-methylquinolones bearing fluorinated (3R)-3-(1-aminocyclopropan-1-yl)pyrrolidin-1-yl substituents at the C-7 position (2-4) was synthesized to obtain potent drugs for infections caused by Gram-positive pathogens, which include resistant strains such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae (PRSP), and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE). These fluorinated compounds 2-4 exhibited potent antibacterial activity comparable with that of a compound bearing a non-fluorinated (3R)-3-(1-aminocyclopropan-1-yl)pyrrolidine moiety at the C-7 position (1) and had at least 4 times more potent activity against representative Gram-positive bacteria than ciprofloxacin (CPFX), gatifloxacin (GFLX), or moxifloxacin (MFLX). Among them, the 7-[(3S,4R)-4-(1-aminocyclopropan-1-yl)-3-fluoropyrrolidin-1-yl] derivative 3 (=DQ-113), which showed favorable profiles in preliminary toxicological and nonclinical pharmcokinetic studies, exhibited potent antibacterial activity against clinically isolated resistant Gram-positive pathogens.     

Convenient synthesis and antimicrobial activity of new 3-substituted 5-(benzofuran-2-yl)-pyrazole derivatives

The reaction of ethyl 4-(benzofuran-2-yl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate 2 with two moles of hydrazine hydrate afforded 5-(benzofuran-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carbohydrazide 4a, while its reaction with equimolar amount of phenylhydrazine gave ester 3b which then converted to 5-(benzofuran-2-yl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carbohydrazide 4b. Various new compounds such as imides 5 and 6, acyl hydrazones 7 and 8, bi-pyrazoles 9-12, and 1,3-thiazole derivatives 14 and 15 were prepared from carbohydrazide derivatives 4a, b. The new compounds are tested for their antimicrobial activity. Compounds 2, 5, 7, and 8 showed antifungal activities against C. albicans. Also, compounds 2, 6, 8, and 15 showed antibacterial activities.     

Synthesis and antifungal activity of new N-(1-phenyl-4-carbetoxypyrazol-5-yl)-, N-(indazol-3-yl)- and N-(indazol-5-yl)-2-iodobenzamides

N-(1-Phenyl-4-carbetoxypyrazol-5-yl)-, N-(indazol-3-yl)- and N-(indazol-5-yl)-2-iodobenzamides 6, with a Benodanil-like structure, were synthesized by refluxing in acetic acid the corresponding benzotriazinones 5 with potassium iodide for 1 h in order to study the role on the antifungal activity of the N-substitution with an aromatic heterocyclic system on benzamide moiety. Among the tested iododerivatives, compounds 6d,f,g,h possess interesting activities toward some phytopathogenic fungal strains.     

Urinary metabolites of 3a,4,5,6,7,7a-hexahydro-3-(1-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-1,2-benzisoxazole in the dog.

The antiprotozoal drug 3a,4,5,6,7,7a-hexahydro-3-(1-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-1,2-benzisoxazole (I), which exhibits activity against trypanosomiasis, is also antibacterial in vivo. Since the urine from a dog dosed with I showed a broader spectrum of antibacterial activity than I itself, metabolites from this urine were isolated and partially characterized. The metabolites were mono- and dihydroxy-substituted species with the hydroxyl groups on carbons 4--7 of the hexahydrobenzisoxazole ring. These observations led to the synthesis of several such hydroxy derivatives of I, and their properties fully supported the proposed positions of metabolic hydroxylation. One synthetic compound, the 6,7-cis-dihydroxy compound, exhibited higher antibacterial activity against Salmonella schottmuelleri in mice and greater trypanocidal activity in vivo against Trypanosoma cruzi (Brazil strain) than I.     

Synthesis and biological activity of ethyl 2-(substituted benzylthio)-4-(3'-(ethoxycarbonyl)biphenyl-4-yl)-6-methyl-1,4-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxylate derivatives

In the present study, a new series of ethyl 2-(substituted benzylthio)-4-(3'-(ethoxycarbonyl)-biphenyl-4-yl)-6-methyl-1,4-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxylate derivatives was synthesized. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by (1) H-NMR, mass and C, H, N analyses. All newly synthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus pyogenes and Klebsiella pneumoniae) and antifungal (Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus fumigatus, Candida albicans, Penicillium marneffei and Trichophyton mentagrophytes) activity. The results revealed that all synthesized compounds have a significant biological activity against the tested microorganisms. Compounds 8a, 8b, 8c, 8e, 8f, 8i, and 8j exhibited good antimicrobial activity.     

Studies on condensed-heterocyclic azolium cephalosporins. IV. Synthesis and antibacterial activity of 7 beta-[2-(5-amino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl)-2(Z)- alkoxyiminoacetamido]-3-(condensed-heterocyclic azolium)methyl cephalosporins including SCE-2787.

The synthesis and in vitro antibacterial activity of 7 beta-[2-(5-amino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl)-2(Z)-alkoxyiminoacetami do] cephalosporins bearing various condensed-heterocyclic azolium groups at the 3 position in the cephalosporin nucleus are described. The thiadiazolyl cephalosporins showed good antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and the MICs of the thiadiazolyl cephalosporins against Pseudomonas aeruginosa was more potent than that of the corresponding 7 beta-[2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-2(Z)-alkoxyiminoacetamido]-3- (condensed-heterocyclic azolium)methyl cephalosporins. Also, the thiadiazolyl cephalosporins bearing (imidazo[1,2-b]-pyridazinium-1-yl)methyl groups at the 3 position showed antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Among the cephalosporins tested, 7 beta-[2-(5- amino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl)-2(Z)-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-(imidaz o[1,2- b]pyridazinium-1-yl)methyl-3- cephem-4-carboxylate (4, SCE-2787) which exhibited the most potent antibacterial activity and the broadest antibacterial spectrum was selected as a parenteral cephalosporin candidate for further biological evaluation.     

3-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-4(3H)-quinazolinone sodium salt (MDL 427): a new antiallergic agent

Syntheses for 3-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-4(3H)-quinazolinone sodium salt monohydrate (9; MDL 427) and the related formamido compound, 2-(formylamino)-N-1H-tetrazol-5-ylbenzamide (10), are described. Both compounds are active in the rat passive cutaneous anaphylaxis and passive peritoneal anaphylaxis tests. A 94:6 equilibrium mixture of 9 and ionized 10, respectively, forms in aqueous buffer systems at a pH-dependent rate. In addition, analogues of 3-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-4(3H)-quinazolinone (8) bearing substituents on the benzene ring, substituents at the 2-position, and heteroaryl groups at the 3-position other than tetrazole were prepared. These analogue sets demonstrated that an accessible electrophilic center and an acidic functionality were requirements for good antiallergic activity.

9-[5'-(2-Oxo-1,3,2-oxazaphosphorinan-2-yl)-beta-D-arabinosyl]adeni ne (1c) and 9-[5'-(2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinan-2-yl)-beta-D-arabinosyl]adeni ne (1d) were synthesized by reaction of 9-[beta-D-arabinofuranosyl]adenine with phosphoryl chloride with 1-amino-3-propanol and 1,3-propanediol, respectively. 1c consisted of a mixture of diastereomers, while 1d was enantiomerically homogeneous. The structures of these compounds were established by spectral (1H NMR, MS, UV) and elemental analyses. Both 1c and 1d were resistant to degradation by 5'-nucleotidase, alkaline phosphatase, venom phosphodiesterase, crude snake venom, adenosine deaminase, and adenylate deaminase. Neither compound was significantly biotransformed by mouse hepatic microsomal preparations in the presence of an NADPH-generating system. Compound 1c was marginally effective at prolonging the life span of mice bearing P-388 leukemia; compound 1d, however, was inactive.     

Pyrrolopyrimidine nucleosides. 18. Synthesis and chemotherapeutic activity of 4-amino-7-(3-deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)pyrrolo[2,3-d] pyrimidine-5-carboxamide (3'-deoxysangivamycin) and 4-amino-7-(2-deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)pyrrolo[2,3-d] pyrimidine-5-carboxamide (2'-deoxysangivamycin)

A multistep synthesis, using the nucleoside antibiotic toyocamycin as the starting material, has furnished 6,2'-S-cyclosangivamycin (6). Desulfurization of 6,2'-S-cyclosangivamycin (6) with Raney nickel has provided 2'-deoxysangivamycin (7). Treatment of sangivamycin (1c) with sodium iodide and alpha-acetoxyisobutyryl chloride has furnished 4-amino-7-[2-O-acetyl-3-deoxy-3-iodo-5-O-(2,5,5-trimethyl-4-oxo-1, 3-dioxolan-2-yl)-beta-D-xylofuranosyl]-pyrrolo[2,3-d] pyrimidine-5-carboxamide (8a). Dehalogenation of 8a with 10% palladium on charcoal was followed by a removal of the blocking groups with ammonium hydroxide to give 3'-deoxysangivamycin (9) in 49% overall yield. The reaction of sangivamycin (1c) with diphenyl disulfide and tributylphosphine gave 5'-(phenylthio)-5'-deoxysangivamycin (10). Treatment of 10 with Raney Nickel afforded 5'-deoxysangivamycin (11). Antitumor evaluation showed that 3'-deoxysangivamycin had significant activity against the murine leukemia L1210 both in vivo and in vitro, although it was less potent on a molar basis than the parent compound sangivamycin. The 2'- and 5'-deoxysangivamycins did not show significant antitumor activity.     

Studies on condensed-heterocyclic azolium cephalosporins. III. Synthesis and antibacterial activity of 7 beta-[2-(2-amino-5-substituted-thiazol-4-yl)-2 (Z)-alkoxyiminoacetamido]-3-(condensed-heterocyclic azolium)methyl-3-cephem-4- carboxylates.

As a part of our research on the synthesis of cephalosporins bearing condensed-heterocyclic azolium groups at the 3 position in the cephalosporin nucleus, we describe herein the synthesis of 7 beta-[2-(2-amino-5-halogeno-, methylthio-, methylsulfinyl-, methylsulfonyl- and sulfothiazol-4-yl)-2(Z)-alkoxyiminoacetamido] cephalosporins and their antibacterial activity. Among the compounds prepared, 7 beta-[2-(2-amino-5-chlorothiazol-4-yl)-2(Z)- methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-(imidazo[1,5-a]-pyridinium-1-yl)methyl-3-cephem -4-carboxylate (14) showed good antibacterial activity against both Staphylococcus aureus including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, whereas the antibacterial activity against other Gram-negative bacteria was a slightly lower than that of 7 beta-[2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-2(Z)-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-(im ida zo [1,2-a]pyridinium (I-1) and imidazo[1,5-a]pyridinium (I-4)-1-yl)methyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylates.     

(2E,4E)-N-(4-(1H-Indol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl)alkyl-5-(substituted phenyl)-2,4-pentadienamides as Antiallergic Agents with Antihistaminic and Anti Slow-Reacting Substance (SRS) Activities

As an extension of our study aiming to discover a novel compound with dual activities against histamine and slow-reacting substance (SRS), we synthesized two types of indolylpiperidine derivatives, 3 and 4–20. Testing for in vivo antianaphylactic activity and for in vitro anti-SRS activity revealed that (2E,4E)-5-(3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)-N-(2-(4-(1H-indol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl)ethyl)-2,4-pentadienamide ( 11 ) exhibited potent dual activities with ED₅₀ = 0.89 mg/kg and IC₅₀ = 1.43 μM, respectively. However, the plasma concentration of unchanged 11 was very low when administered orally in guinea pigs. This result can be explained by fast formation of a glucuronic acid conjugate.     

Studies on anti-MRSA parenteral cephalosporins. I. Synthesis and antibacterial activity of 7beta-[2-(5-amino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl)-2(Z)- hydroxyiminoacetamido]-3-(substituted imidaz

In order to improve the antibacterial activity of cefozopran (CZOP) against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), we initiated chemical modification to introduce a 2-(5-amino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl)-2(Z)-hydroxyimino acetyl group at the C-7 position and a 3- or 6-substituted imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazinium or 5-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyridinium group at the C-3' position. Although this approach successfully enhanced the anti-MRSA activity of CZOP two to eight times, a slight decrease in the activity against Gram-negative bacteria including Pseudomonas aeruginosa was involved. Among the novel derivatives, 3-(6-aminoimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazinium-1-yl)methyl-7beta-[2-(5-amino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl)-2(Z)hydroxyiminoacetamido]-3-cephem-4-carboxylate (44a) showed an excellent balance of activity against MRSA and Gram-negative bacteria.     

5-(5-Bromothien-2-yl)-2'-deoxyuridine and 5-(5-chlorothien-2-yl)-2'-deoxyuridine are equipotent to (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine in the inhibition of herpes simplex virus type I replication.

2'-Deoxyuridines with a five-membered heterocyclic substituent in the 5-position were synthesized by palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions of 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine with the activated heteroaromatics. Further modification of the compound with the 5-thien-2-yl substituent gave 5-(5-bromothien-2-yl)-2'-deoxyuridine and 5-(5-chlorothienyl-2-yl)-2'-deoxyuridine. Both compounds show potent and selective activity against herpes simplex virus type 1 and varicella-zoster virus.     

Synthesis and choleretic activity of 3-(2-aryl-5R-benzimidazol-1-yl) butanoic acids

Thirty 3-(2-aryl-5R-benzimidazol-1-yl)butanoic acids were prepared in order to evaluate substitution effects on the 2 and 5 positions of the heterocyclic ring upon the previously recorded choleretic activity of 3-(2-phenylbenzimidazol-1-yl)butanoic acid. A general choleretic activity is shown by the acids tested, which in several cases it is superior to that of the model compound and sometimes also to that of dehydrocholic acid.     

Studies on monocyclic beta-lactam antibiotics. V. Synthesis and antibacterial activity of 3-[2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-(Z)-2-(O-substituted oxyimino)-acetamido]-1-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-2-azetidinones having various functional groups at C-4 position of beta-lactam

The synthesis and antibacterial activity of the 3-[2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-(Z)-2-(O-substituted oxyimino)acetamido]-1-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-2-azetidinones++ + having various functional groups at C-4 position of beta-lactam are described. These compounds exhibited a strong activity against a variety of Gram-negative bacteria including beta-lactamase-producing strains. Among various C-4 substituents explored, the fluoromethyl and carbamoyloxymethyl moiety were found to increase the activity.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of some new 3–[5-(4-substituted) phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2yl]-2- styrylquinazoline-4(3H)-ones

Several 3-[5-(4-substituted)phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-yl]-2-styryl quinazoline-4(3H)-one were synthesized and screened for antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus , Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli and antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger and Fusariumoxysporum by the serial dilution technique. Compounds were prepared by reacting corresponding 2-methtyl quinazolinone and 4-subustituted benzaldehydes in glacial acetic acid. Physicochemical and spectral data were consistent with newly synthesized compounds. The prepared compounds were compared with previously synthesized 2-methyl-3-[5-(4-substituted)phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-yl]-quinazoline-4(3H)-ones for antimicrobial activity. The present study revealed that styryl moiety at the second position of 4(3H) quinazolinone marginally increased the biological activity and exhibited better antibacterial than antifungal activities.
