Synthesis and Antifungal Activity of Nicotinamide Derivatives as Succinate Dehydrogenase Inhibitors
摘要:
Thirty-eight nicotinamide derivatives were designed and synthesized as potential succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHI) and precisely characterized by H-1 NMR, ESI-MS, and elemental analysis. The compounds were evaluated against two phytopathogenic fungi, Rhizoctonia solani and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, by mycelia growth inhibition assay in vitro. Most of the compounds displayed moderate activity, in which, 3a-17 exhibited the most potent antifungal activity against R. solani and S. sclerotiorum with IC50 values of 15.8 and 20.3 mu M, respectively, comparable to those of the commonly used fungicides boscalid and carbendazim. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) of nicotinamide derivatives demonstrated that the meta-position of aniline was a key position contributing to the antifungal activity. Inhibition activities against two fungal SDHs were tested and achieved the same tendency with the data acquired from in vitro antifungal assay. Significantly, 3a-17 was demonstrated to successfully suppress disease development in S. sclerotiorum infected cole in vivo. In the molecular docking simulation, sulfur and chlorine of 3a-17 were bound with PHE291 and PRO150 of the SDH homology model, respectively, which could explain the probable mechanism of action between the inhibitory and target protein.
To improve the druggability of salinomycin, a 20-epi-amino-20-deoxysalinomycin derivatives library was synthesized with high efficacy from which a few salinomycin derivatives with high potency and selectivity were identified through comprehensive cytotoxicity assay, including a fluorine-19 magnetic resonance sensitive tool molecule. Using a K-ras cellular model, salinomycin and its derivatives showed

in which R5 through R8, D, X, Y and Z have defined meanings, processes for preparing such spiro-amide compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and methods of using such spiro-amide compounds for treating and/or inhibiting disorders or disease states mediated at least in part by the bradykinin 1 receptor.
core-scaffolds of naturalproducts presents a promising strategy. Here, we report a naturalproduct inspired synthesis of six different chemotypes and their derivatives for drug discovery research. These bicyclic hetero- and carbocyclic scaffolds are highly novel, rich in sp³ features and with ideal physicochemical properties to display drug likeness. The functional groups on the scaffolds were exploited
