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.

A series of molecular probes for the determination of nitric oxide (NO) have been prepared. Each probe consists of an anthracene, coumarin or acridine fluorophore coupled to an electron rich o-phenylenediamine group. The o-phenylenediamine group can be substituted with methyl or methoxy groups to enhance its electron rich nature. The fluorophore fluorescence is quenched by photoelectron transfer (PET) from the aromatic amine to the lowest unoccupied orbital of the excited state fluorophore. Reaction with nitrosating species converts the o-phenylenediamine group into an electron deficient benzotriazole derivative. This group has a higher oxidation potential and does not quench the fluorophore fluorescence by photoelectron transfer so that these products are highly fluorescent. Some benzotriazole derivatives were made preparatively by alternative synthetic routes. The formation of fluorescent probes was evaluated by treatment of the precursors with nitrous
fumes and S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP).
