- Expedient discovery for novel antifungal leads: 1,3,4-Oxadiazole derivatives bearing a quinazolin-4(3H)-one fragment
-
Developing novel fungicide candidates are intensively promoted by the rapid emergences of resistant fungi that outbreak on agricultural production. Aiming to discovery novel antifungal leads, a series of 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives bearing a quinazolin-4(3H)-one fragment were constructed for evaluating their inhibition effects against phytopathogenic fungi in vitro and in vivo. Systematically structural optimizations generated the bioactive molecule I32 that was identified as a promising inhibitor against Rhizoctonia solani with the in vivo preventative effect of 58.63% at 200 μg/mL. The observations that were captured by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy demonstrated that the bioactive molecule I32 could induce the sprawling growth of hyphae, the local shrinkage and rupture on hyphal surfaces, the extreme swelling of vacuoles, the striking distortions on cell walls, and the reduction of mitochondria numbers. The above results provided an indispensable complement for the discovery of antifungal lead bearing a quinazolin-4(3H)-one and 1,3,4-oxadiazole fragment.

- The synthesis and evaluation of phenoxyacylhydroxamic acids as potential agents for Helicobacter pylori infections
-
Two series of ω-phenoxy contained acylhydroxamic acids as novel urease inhibitors were designed and synthesized. Biological activity evaluations revealed that ω-phenoxypropinoylhydroxamic acids were more active than phenoxyacetohydroxamic acids. Out of these compounds, 3-(3,4-dichlorophenoxy)propionylhydroxamic acid c24 showed significant potency against urease in both cell free extract (IC50 = 0.061 ± 0.003 μM) and intact cell (IC50 = 0.89 ± 0.05 μM), being over 450- and 120-fold more potent than the clinically prescribed urease inhibitor AHA, repectively. Non-linear fitting of experimental data (V-[S]) suggested a mixed-type inhibition mechanism and a dual site binding mode of these compounds.

- Synthesis and Herbicidal Activity of Some Novel Pyrazole Derivatives
-
Some novel pyrazole derivatives were designed and synthesized through multi-step reactions from substituted phenol as starting material. Their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR, FTIR, MS and elemental analysis. All these compounds were evaluated their herbicidal activity. The preliminary bioassay results indicated that some of title compounds displayed moderate herbicidal activity at 200 μg/mL. Among them, compounds 4-chloro-N'-(2-(2,5-dimethyl-phenoxy) acetyl)-3-ethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-5-carbohydrazide, 4-chloro-N'-(2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)acetyl)- 3-ethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-5-carbohydrazide, 4-chloro-3-ethyl-1-methyl-N'-(2-(m-tolyloxy) acetyl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carbohydrazide and 4-chloro-3-ethyl-1-methyl-N'-(2-(3-nitrophenoxy)acetyl)- 1H-pyrazole-5-car-bohydrazide possessed 95%, 100%, 95% and 95% inhibition against Brassica campestris respectively. In the further bioassay, the compound 6l exhibited excellent herbicidal activity either monocotyledon or dicotyledon plant at 150 g/ha.

- Synthesis and insect antifeedant activity of aurones against spodoptera litura larvae
-
A series of aurones were prepared from various phenols via phenoxy acetic acids and coumaranones and evaluated for insect antifeedant activity against the common cutworm (Spodoptera litura). The naturally occurring aurone was most active at an ED50 of 0.12 μmol/cm2. The synthetic precursor, coumaranones, showed that the introduction of methoxyl and methyl groups to the benzene ring increased insect antifeedant activity. Similarly, the tested aurones showed that the introduction of methoxyl group to the A and/or B rings increased the insect antifeedant activity, but 4,5,6- and 3 ,4 ,5 -trisubstituted compounds did not show this activity in this test. The hydroxylation of aurones in the B ring should be disadvantageous for insect antifeedant activity against S. litura. Although the melting points did not correlate well with the insect antifeedant activity, compounds that were nearly inactive had high melting points. A significant correlation was noted between biological activity (pED50) and a hydrogen-bonding parameter calculated from the Rf value obtained from SiOH thin-layer chromatography and a lipophilicity parameter (log k) calculated from the retention time in ODS high-performance liquid chromatography. The respective correlation coefficients (r) were -0.83 and -0.70. The introduction of alkoxy and alkyl groups along with adequate hydrogen bonding seems to contribute to the antifeedant activity of the compounds tested.

- Novel benzo[1,4]diazepin-2-one derivatives as endothelin receptor antagonists
-
Since its discovery in 1988 by Yanagisawa et al., endothelin (ET), a potent vasoconstrictor, has been widely implicated in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and renal diseases. Many research groups have embarked on the discovery and development of ET receptor antagonists for the treatment of such diseases. While several compounds, e.g., ambrisentan 2, are in late clinical trials for various indications, one compound (bosentan, Tracleer) is being marketed to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension. Inspired by the structure of ambrisentan 2, we designed a novel class of ET receptor antagonists based on a 1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[e][1,4]diazepin-2-one scaffold. Here, we report on the preparation as well as the in vitro and in vivo structure-activity relationships of these derivatives. Potent dual ET A/ETB receptor antagonists with affinities in the low nanomolar range have been identified. In addition, several compounds efficiently reduced arterial blood pressure after oral administration to Dahl salt sensitive rats. In this animal model, the efficacy of the benzo[e] [1,4]diazepin-2-one derivative rac-39au was superior to that of racemic ambrisentan, rac-2.
