Parallel synthesis of 9-aminoacridines and their evaluation against chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum
摘要:
A parallel synthetic strategy to the 9-aminoacridine scaffold of the classical anti-malarial drug quinacrine (2) is presented. The method features a new route to 9-chloroacridines that utilizes triflates of salicylic acid derivatives, which are commercially available in a variety of substitution patterns. The route allows ready variation of the two diversity elements present in this class of molecules: the tricyclic aromatic heterocyclic core, and the disubstituted diamine sidechain. In this study, a library of 175 compounds was designed, although only 93 of the final products had purities acceptable for screening. Impurity was generally due to incomplete removal of 9-acridones (18), a degradation product of the 9-chloroacridine synthetic intermediates. The library was screened against two strains of Plasmodium falciparum, including a model of the drug-resistant parasite, and six novel compounds were found to have IC50 values in the low nanomolar range.

The treatment of alkyl esters with barium hydroxide octahydrate in methanol followed by protonation with anhydrous hydrogen chloride affords carboxylic acids. The procedure does not require aqueous workup and is particularly suitable for parallel synthesis applications.
