Synthesis of analogues of the benzodiazepine Ro 5-3335, antagonist of Tat HIV-1. Biological evaluation by Luciferase transactivation and anti-viral assay
摘要:
Ro 5-3335 is a benzodiazepine which is an antagonist of the Tat protein of HIV-1. A series of Ro 5-3335-derived compounds have been synthesized in order to evaluate whether opened analogues of the benzodiazepine tricyclic structure possess biological activity. The analogues are constituted by two aromatic rings variously substituted, linked by an amino acid. The activity of these compounds has been determined by the quantification of both inhibition of Tat activity using a cell-based transfection assay and inhibition of HIV replication in acutely infected cells. No analogue provided a notable inhibition of Tat-dependent transactivation or any anti-HIV activity.

Highly substituted chiral hydantoins were readily synthesized from simple dipeptides in a single step under mild conditions. This reaction proceeded through the dual activation of an amide and a tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) protecting group by Tf2O-pyridine. This method was successfully applied in the preparation of a variety of biologically active compounds, including drug analogs and natural products
Environmentally friendly one-pot synthesis of amides, bis-amides and dipeptides by mechanochemical carbodiimide-mediated coupling of carboxylicacids and amines is described; high reaction yields and simple aqueous work-up allow for the clean, practical and fast preparation of a variety of compounds containing the amide bond from readily accessible reagents.
Tocainide and related optically active chiral alpha-aminoanilides were synthesized and tested in vivo via the hot plate test to evaluate their central analgesic action. The aims of the study were to verify if a) the increase in lipophilicity, obtained by the introduction of an alkyl group on the steric center (3f-i), and the replacement of the C=O group with the C=S (10) group as well as the introduction of a methyl or ethyl group on the amidic nitrogen atom (8a-c) would produce an increase in central analgesic efficacy with respect to Tocainide; b) the 2,6-xylidide moiety is crucial for high analgesic activity (3b-e); c) the hydrogen atom bonded to the amidic nitrogen moiety is an essential pharmacophoric element for analgesic activity. Among all the synthesized compounds, 3f showed antinociceptive properties with a good enantioselective index.
