Triazolopyridopyrimidines: an emerging family of effective DNA photocleavers. DNA binding. Antileishmanial activity.
Triazolopyridopyrimidines 3-phenyl-6,8-di(2-pyridyl)-[1,2,3]triazolo[5',1':6,1]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine (1a), 6,8-di(pyridin-2-yl)-[1,2,3]triazolo[1',5':1,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine (1b) and 3-methyl-6,8-di(2-pyridyl)-[1,2,3]triazolo[5',1':6,1]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine (1c) were prepared and their electrochemical and luminescence properties were studied in depth. The DNA binding ability of this series of compounds has been investigated by means of UV-vis absorption and fluorescence titrations, steady-state emission quenching with ferrocyanide as well as viscosity measurements. Results have shown that triazolopyridopyrimidine 1a interacts strongly at DNA grooves. This compound also displays pref…
A DFT study for the formation of imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidines through an intramolecular Michael addition
The formation of imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidines through a ring closure of 2-(2-sulfonylimino-1,2-dihydro-1-pyrimidinyl) acetamides has been studied using DFT methods. Analysis of the energy results for the cyclization step shows the demand of almost an acid catalyst, which increases the electrophilicity of the dihydropyrimidine moiety, in order to make feasible the intramolecular Michael addition. The substitution on both dihydropyrimidine and amide moieties has also an influence on the cyclization step.
Ring transformation of furfural into an unusual bicyclic system: Characterisation and dynamic stereochemistry of 6,7-diethoxycarbonyl-6,7-diaza-8-oxabicyclo[3,2,1]oct-3-en-2-one
Abstract 2-Formylthiophene and 3-formylindole react with diethyl azodicarboxylate to give simple products derived from reactions on the formyl group whereas 2-formylfuran reacts to give the unexpected bicyclic title compound. 1 H and 13 C NMR studies indicate that this compound undergoes a series of three dynamic conformational changes over the temperature range 50 to −90°C which are ascribed to slow rotation about the exocyclic carbamate bonds and hindered bridge inversion.
2-sulfonyliminodihydropyrimidines: a novel class of analgesic compounds.
A series of 2-sulfonyliminodihydropyrimidine derivatives have been synthesized and evaluated in vivo for their antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities. The results were compared with that of acetyl salicylic acid. Compounds 6Ab-d and 6Be displayed an interesting analgesic profile in the acetic acid-induced abdominal contractions test. Based on the results of the carrageenan-hind paw edema test, compound 6Af showed potential anti-inflammatory activity.
N-(2-methyl-indol-1H-5-yl)-1-naphthalenesulfonamide : a novel reversible antimitotic agent inhibiting cancer cell motility
Este es el post-print que se ha publicado de forma definitiva en: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0006295216301423 A series of compounds containing the sulfonamide scaffold were synthesized and screened for their in vitro anticancer activity against a representative panel of human cancer cell lines, leading to the identification of N-(2-methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (8e) as a compound showing a remarkable activity across the panel, with IC50 values in the nanomolar-to-low micromolar range. Cell cycle distribution analysis revealed that 8e promoted a severe G2/M arrest, which was followed by cellular senescence as indicated by the detection of senescen…
In vivo and in vitro anti-leishmanial activities of 4-nitro-N-pyrimidin- and N-pyrazin-2-ylbenzenesulfonamides, and N2-(4-nitrophenyl)-N1-propylglycinamide.
A series of compounds containing the nitrobenzene and sulfonamido moieties were synthesized and their leishmanicidal effect was assessed in vitro against Leishmania infantum promastigotes. Among the compounds evaluated, the p-nitrobenzenesulfonamides 4Aa and 4Ba, and the p-nitroaniline 5 showed significant activity with a good selectivity index. In a Balb/c mice model of L. Infantum, administration of compounds 4Aa, 4Ba or 5 (5 mg/kg/day for 10 days, injected ip route) led to a clear-cut parasite burden reduction (ca. 99%). In an attempt to elucidate their mechanism of action, the DNA interaction of 4Aa and 5 was investigated by means of viscosity studies, thermal denaturation and nuclease …
Synthesis and evaluation of 2-tosylamino and 2-tosyliminopyrimidine derivatives as inhibitors of some leukocyte functions
Abstract We have studied the potential anti-inflammatory effects of 20 2-tosylamino and 2-tosyliminopyrimidine new derivatives in human neutrophils. We have evaluated their interference with some leukocyte functions and 5-lipoxygenase activity. All the compounds reduced neutrophil degranulation process at concentrations in the μM range. Besides, compounds with a phenolic substitution inhibited leukotriene B 4 biosynthesis in neutrophils and decreased the cell-free 5-lipoxygenase activity. This study demonstrates that 2-tosylamino and 2-tosyliminopyrimidine derivatives can reduce the activation of neutrophil cells which may have relevance for the modulation of the inflammatory response.
Transamidation reactions of 2-(2-sulfonylguanidino)acetamides
Abstract The reactivity of a series of sulfonylguanidinoacetamides 2A–E towards amines is reported. Guanidinoacetamides 2A–C, containing the arylsulfonylimino moiety, undergo a facile transamidation to give substituted carboxamides 4A–C, through the imidazolidinone intermediate 3. Acetamide 2D, having a methanesulfonylimino substituent, affords the imidazolidinone 3D and no transamidated carboxamides 4 are detected. In the case of guanidinoacetamide 2E, with a p-nitrobenzenesulfonylimino substituent, a Smiles rearrangement was observed.
Synthesis of chiral oxazolidin-2-ones from N-alkoxycarbonyl amino epoxides: a computational studyElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: structures of localized transition states. See http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/p1/b2/b203702e/
threo-N-Alkoxycarbonylamino epoxides 5a–d, containing the oxazolidine moiety, were converted into trans-4,5-disubstituted-2-oxazolidin-2-ones 2 with total regio- and stereoselection by means of nucleophilic intramolecular attack of the carbamate moiety to the protonated oxirane ring. Theoretical calculations confirmed both the regioselection and the preference of the cyclocarbamation reaction vs. the intermolecular attack by the solvent, arising from different behaviour in comparison with the analogous iodonium ions.
Intermolecular and Intramolecular Transamidation Reactions
The amide functional group is resonance stabilised and direct reaction with amines is known to be difficult. Facile amide exchange reactions would enable the synthesis of important new amide based molecules, therefore transamidation reactions represent an important step in this direction. In order to ensure a transamidation reaction takes place, special requirements and conditions are required. According to the different structural characteristics of the carbox-amide group and types of activation, the most relevant examples of this reaction will be reviewed.
Triazolopyridyl ketones as a novel class of antileishmanial agents. DNA binding and BSA interaction
A new series of triazolopyridyl pyridyl ketones has been synthetized by regioselective lithiation of the corresponding [1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine at 7 position followed by reaction with different electrophiles. The in vitro antileishmanial activity of these compounds was evaluated against Leishmaniainfantum, Leishmaniabraziliensis, Leishmaniaguyanensis and Leishmaniaamazonensis. Compounds 6 and 7 were found to be the most active leishmanicidal agents. Both of them showed activities at micromolar concentration against cultured promastigotes of Leishmania spp. (IC₅₀=99.8-26.8 μM), without cytotoxicity on J774 macrophage cells. These two compounds were also tested in vivo in a murine model…

Novel enantiomerically pure 2-amino-1,4-diols from chiral 4-hydroxymethyl-5-iodo-1,3-oxazin-2-ones
Abstract Reduction of (4 S ,5 S ,6 S )-4-hydroxymethyl-5-iodo-6-methyl-1,3-oxazin-2-one 2a and (4 S ,5 S ,6 R )-4-hydroxymethyl-5-iodo-6-phenyl-1,3-oxazin-2-one 2b with tributyltin hydride in ethanol afforded 1,3-oxazin-2-one 3a and 1,3-oxazolidin-2-one 4b , respectively. Hydrolysis of 3a and 4b under basic conditions led to enantiomerically pure aminodiols 1a and 1b . Reduction of 2b in refluxing toluene led to the unexpected bicyclic tetrahydrofuro[3 a , d ]-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one 5 as the sole product.
In vitro and in vivo antileishmanial and trypanocidal studies of new N-benzene- and N-naphthalenesulfonamide derivatives.
We report in vivo and in vitro antileishmanial and trypanocidal activities of a new series of N-substituted benzene and naphthalenesulfonamides 1-15. Compounds 1-15 were screened in vitro against Leishmania infantum , Leishmania braziliensis , Leishmania guyanensis , Leishmania amazonensis , and Trypanosoma cruzi .

Highly regio- and stereoselective iodocyclization of chiral 3-alkoxycarbonyl-4-propenyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-oxazolidines: a computational investigation
The iodocyclization of allylic carbamates 3a and 3b proceeded with high regio- and stereoselection to give 2-oxobicyclo[4.3.0]nonane 5a as the major product. Both the regio- and diastereoselection of the reaction were investigated with the help of molecular mechanics and quantomechanical calculations. The energetic difference between the competing transition states TS-5a and TS-5b is in good agreement with the experimental results and from the calculated transition structures it appears that steric factors direct the discrimination.
