Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of new 3-(1-R-3(5)-methyl-4-nitroso-1H-5(3)-pyrazolyl)-5-methylisoxazoles.

2000

A number of new 3-(1-R-3(5)-methyl-4-nitroso-1H-5(3)-pyrazolyl)-5-methylisoxazoles 6a-g (7b-f) were synthesized and tested for antibacterial and antifungal activity. Some of these compounds displayed antifungal activity at non-cytotoxic concentrations. Derivative 6c was 9 times more potent in vitro than miconazole and 20 times more selective against C. neoformans. 6c was also 8- and 125-fold more potent than amphotericin B and fluconazole, respectively. None of the compounds was active against bacteria. Preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies showed that the NO group at position 4 of the pyrazole ring is essential for the activity. Lipophilicity of the pyrazole moiety, N-a…

Design, synthesis and antiproliferative activity of methyl 4-Iodo-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-pyrazole-3-carboxylate and related compounds

1996

Abstract In a SAR study on azole-related nucleosides we have designed some pyrazole-nucleoside analogs characterised, for the first time, by a carboxylic ester moiety. 4-Iodo-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-pyrazole-3-carboxylate showed a wide spectrum of antiproliferative activity and a particularly low cytotoxicity against resting PBL, being, unlike the other azole nucleosides, more active than the corresponding primary amide.
