- Study on synthesis of some substituted N-propargyl isatins by propargylation reaction of corresponding isatins using potassium carbonate as base under ultrasound- and microwave-assisted conditions
-
Substituted N-propargyl isatins were synthesized by SN2 reaction of corresponding substituted isatins with propargyl bromide in the presence of anhydrous K2CO3 as base. We reported about study on systematically synthesis of these compounds using heating procedures under different reaction conditions, including microwave-assisted heating conditions at power of 100?W (Procedure A), conventional heating conditions in water bath at 50?°C in acetonitrile (Procedure B), and conventional heating conditions in water bath at 50?°C in DMF (procedure C). The best procedure A was deduced based on the investigations on the reaction conditions. Almost all substituted N-propargyl isatins were new, except compounds with R of H, 5-Me, 5-Cl and 5-Br substituents. The structures of the obtained compounds were confirmed by the modern spectroscopic methods.

- Design, synthesis, and in vitro and in vivo anti-angiogenesis study of a novel vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) inhibitor based on 1,2,3-triazole scaffold
-
In the past five years, our team had been committed to click chemistry research, exploring the biological activity of 1,2,3-triazole by synthesizing different target inhibitors. In this study, a series of novel indole-2-one derivatives based on 1,2,3-triazole scaffolds were synthesized for the first time, and their inhibitory activity on vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) was tested. Most of the compounds had shown promising activity in the VEGFR-2 kinase assay and had low toxicity to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The compound 13d (IC50 = 26.38 nM) had better kinase activity inhibition ability than sunitinib (IC50 = 83.20 nM) and was less toxic to HUVECs. Moreover, it had an excellent inhibitory effect on HT-29 and MKN-45 cells. On the one hand, by tube formation assay, transwell, and Western blot analysis, compound 13d could inhibit VEGFR-2 protein phosphorylate on HUVECs, thereby inhibiting HUVECs migration and tube formation. In vivo study, the zebrafish model with VEGFR-2 labeling also verified that compound 13d had more anti-angiogenesis ability than sunitinib. On the other hand, molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation results showed that compound 13d could stably bind to the active site of VEGFR-2. Based on the above findings, compound 13d could be considered an effective anti-angiogenesis drug and has more development value than sunitinib.

- Further Studies on Triazinoindoles as Potential Novel Multitarget-Directed Anti-Alzheimer's Agents
-
The inadequate clinical efficacy of the present anti-Alzheimer's disease (AD) drugs and their low impact on the progression of Alzheimer's disease in patients have revised the research focus from single targets to multitarget-directed ligands. A novel series of substituted triazinoindole derivatives were obtained by introducing various substituents on the indole ring for the development of multitarget-directed ligands as anti-AD agents. The experimental data indicated that some of these compounds exhibited significant anti-AD properties. Among them, 8-(piperidin-1-yl)-N-(6-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)hexyl)-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indol-3-amine (60), the most potent cholinesterase inhibitor (AChE, IC50 value of 0.32 μM; BuChE, IC50 value of 0.21 μM), was also found to possess significant self-mediated Aβ1-42 aggregation inhibitory activity (54% at 25 μM concentration). Additionally, compound 60 showed strong antioxidant activity. In the PAMPA assay, compound 60 exhibited blood-brain barrier penetrating ability. An acute toxicity study in rats demonstrated no sign of toxicity at doses up to 2000 mg/kg. Furthermore, compound 60 significantly restored the cognitive deficits in the scopolamine-induced mice model and Aβ1-42-induced rat model. In the in silico ADMET prediction studies, the compound satisfied all the parameters of CNS acting drugs. These results highlighted the potential of compound 60 to be a promising multitarget-directed ligand for the development of potential anti-AD drugs.

- Design and development of Isatin-triazole hydrazones as potential inhibitors of microtubule affinity-regulating kinase 4 for the therapeutic management of cell proliferation and metastasis
-
Microtubule affinity-regulating kinase 4 (MARK4) is a potential drug target as the same is found to be over expressed in several types of cancers. In search of effective MARK4 inhibitors, we have synthesized and characterized Isatin-triazole hydrazones (9a-i) and evaluated their inhibitory potential. Of all the compounds, 9g showed better binding affinity and enzyme inhibition potential in sub micromolar range. Human serum albumin (HSA) binding assay suggested an easy transportation of 9g in blood stream due to its binding affinity. In vitro anticancer studies performed on MCF-7, MDA-MB-435s and HepG2 cells using 9g showed inhibition of cell proliferation and cell migration. Further, 9g induces apoptosis in these cancerous cells, with IC50 values of 6.22, 9.94 and 8.14 μM, respectively. Putatively, 9g seems to cause oxidative stress resulting in apoptosis. Functional assay of 9g with a panel of 26 kinases showed MARK4 specific profile. In conclusion, 9g seems to possess an effective inhibitory potential towards MARK4 adding an additional repertoire to anticancer therapeutics.

- Synthesis and Ameliorative Effect of Isatin–Mesalamine Conjugates on Acetic Acid-induced Colitis in Rats
-
A series of new isatin–mesalamine conjugates (9a–g) were synthesized via conjugation of isatin (3a) and its derivatives (3b–3d, 4, 5, and 6) with mesalamine (7) by using chloroacetyl chloride as a bifunctional linker. Compounds 3a–3d were prepared by employing Sandmeyer reaction. Compounds 4, 5, and 6 were obtained from isatin (3a) via previously reported methods. The synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, mass, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectral techniques. Synthesized compounds (3a–d, 4, 5, 6, and 9a–g) were evaluated for in vitro antioxidant activity by DPPH assay method using ascorbic acid as standard. Hybrids 9b (IC50?=?368.6?±?3.5?μM) and 9f (IC50?=?335.1?±?2.9?μM) showed better antioxidant activity than its parent compounds such as 3a (IC50?=?556.8?±?2.9?μM), 5 (IC50?=?511.9?±?3.6?μM), and 7 (IC50?=?768.9?±?2.7?μM). Acetic acid-induced ulcerative colitis in rat model was chosen to examine the antioxidant potential of the synthesized hybrids (9b and 9f) in the amelioration of ulcerative colitis. Colonic myeloperoxidase and malondialdehyde enzymes were used as biomarkers of anti-ulcerative colitis activity. In the present study, hybrids 9b and 9f reduced the levels of colonic myeloperoxidase and malondialdehyde enzymes significantly (p??0.05) when compared with control (colitic), at a dose (0.03?mM/12.5?mg/kg b.w. p.o.) (50%) less than that of its parent moieties mesalamine (0.16?mM/25?mg/kg) and isatin (0.16?mM/25?mg/kg). Thus, the molecular hybridization was proved to be significant in enhancing the activity of hybrids 9b and 9f by reducing the dose.

- Design, Synthesis, Characterization, and In Vitro Evaluation of Isatin-Pomalidomide Hybrids for Cytotoxicity against Multiple Myeloma Cell Lines
-
Inspired by the concept of molecular hybridization, a series of new isatin-pomalidomide hybrids (9a–9g) were designed, synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for in vitro cytotoxic activity against U266B1 and RPMI 8226 multiple myeloma cell lines. Sandmeyer methodology and N-halomethylketo alkylation reaction are the two important reactions involved in the synthesis of isatin-pomalidomide hybrids (9a–9g). All the synthesized compounds (3a–3d, 4, 5, 6, and 9a–9g) were characterized by using IR, mass, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectral techniques. The efficacy of all the synthesized compounds was tested against the aforementioned cell lines by employing MTT assay (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) standard protocols while using pomalidomide as a standard. The test concentrations used in the MTT assay were 1, 10, 20, 30, and 40?μM, and the period of incubation was 24?h. All the synthesized compounds were found to have moderate to greater cytotoxic activity against the aforementioned cell lines. Among them, synthesized hybrids 9f (IC50, U266B1?=?5.15?±?0.72?μM, RPMI8226?=?11.66?±?0.79?μM) and 9g (IC50, U266B1?=?2.50?±?0.37?μM, RPMI8226?=?6.70?±?0.55?μM) displayed better cytotoxic activity against both the cell lines used in the present study.

- Synthesis and cytotoxic studies of novel 5-phenylisatin derivatives and their anti-migration and anti-angiogenic evaluation
-
A number of 5-arylisatin derivatives were synthesized in 5–6 steps from readily available starting materials. Their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR and 13C NMR as well as LC/MS. The cytotoxicity of these novel isatins against human leukemia K562 cells were evaluated by MTT assay in vitro. SAR studies indicated that the N-substituted benzyl and C-5 substituted phenyl groups greatly enhance their cytotoxic activity, whereas an intact carbonyl functionality on C-3 present in the parent ring is required to maintain such a potency. Particularly, N-(p-methoxybenzyl)-5-(p-methoxyphenyl)isatin (compound 2m) showed the highest antitumor activity against K562 cell lines (IC50 = 0.03 μM). Moreover, treatment with compound 2m significantly inhibited liver cancer HepG2 cells proliferation and migration, which could also reduce the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) tube formation. In conclusion, compound 2m exhibited very good cancer cells proliferation inhibition by angiogenesis responses in vitro, and 2m might be a promising angiogenesis inhibitor for cancer treatment.

- Natural α-methylenelactam analogues: Design, synthesis and evaluation of α-alkenyl-γ and δ-lactams as potential antifungal agents against Colletotrichum orbiculare
-
In our continued efforts to improve the potential utility of the α-methylene-γ-lactone scaffold, 62 new and 59 known natural α-methylenelactam analogues including α-methylene-γ-lactams, α-arylidene-γ and δ-lactams, and 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones were synthesized as the bioisosteric analogues of the α-methylenelactone scaffold. The results of antifungal and cytotoxic activity indicated that among these derivatives compound (E)-1-(2, 6-dichlorobenzyl)-3-(2-fluorobenzylidene) pyrrolidin-2-one (Py51) possessed good selectivity with the highest antifungal activity against Colletotrichum orbiculare with IC50?=?10.4?μM but less cytotoxic activity with IC50?=?141.2?μM (against HepG2 cell line) and 161.2?μM (against human hepatic L02?cell line). Ultrastructural change studies performed by transmission electron microscope showed that Py51 could cause important cell morphological changes in C.?orbiculare, such as plasma membrane detached from cell wall, cell wall thickening, mitochondria disruption, a dramatic increase in vacuolation, and eventually a complete loss in the integrity of organelles. Significantly, mitochondria appeared one of the primary targets, as confirmed by their remarkably aberrant morphological changes. Analysis of structure–activity relationships revealed that incorporation of the aryl group into the α-exo-methylene and the N-benzyl substitution increased the activity. Meanwhile, the α-arylidene-γ-lactams have superiority in selectivity over the 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones. Based on the results, the N-benzyl substituted α-(2-fluorophenyl)-γ-lactam was identified as the most promising natural-based scaffold for further discovering and developing improved crop-protection agents.

As a hot topic of epigenetic studies, histone deacetylases (HDACs) are related to lots of diseases, especially cancer. Further researches indicated that different HDAC isoforms played various roles in a wide range of tumor types. Herein a novel series of HDAC inhibitors with isatin-based caps and o-phenylenediamine-based zinc binding groups have been designed and synthesized through scaffold hopping strategy. Among these compounds, the most potent compound 9n exhibited similar if not better HDAC inhibition and antiproliferative activities against multiple tumor cell lines compared with the positive control entinostat (MS-275). Additionally, compared with MS-275 (IC50 values for HDAC1, 2 and 3 were 0.163, 0.396 and 0.605?μM, respectively), compound 9n with IC50 values of 0.032, 0.256 and 0.311?μM for HDAC1, 2 and 3 respectively, showed a moderate HDAC1 selectivity.

A novel series of 2-phenylquinoline-4-carboxamide derivatives was synthesized, characterized and evaluated for its antiproliferative activity against five cancer cell lines, Hela, SK-OV-3, HCT116, A549 and MDA-MB-468, and a normal human fetal lung fibroblastic cell line, MRC-5. Among them, compound 7b displayed potent cytotoxic activity in vitro against SK-OV-3 and HCT116 cell lines with IC50 values of 0.5 and 0.2 μM, respectively. In general, the antiproliferative activity was correlated with the binding property of the colchicine binding site and inhibitory effect on tubulin polymerization. In addition, immunofluorescence and flow cytometry analysis revealed that selected compounds caused disruption of the mitotic spindle assembly and G2/M phase arrest of the cell cycle, which correlated with proliferation inhibitory activity. Molecular docking analysis demonstrated the interaction of 7b at the colchicine binding site of tubulin. These results indicate these compounds are promising inhibitors of tubulin polymerization for the potent treatment of cancer.

A series of novel di- or trisubstituted isatin derivatives were designed and synthesized in 5–6 steps in 25–45% overall yields. Their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR and 13C NMR as well as LC-MS. The anticancer activity of the fourty-three new isatin derivatives against human T lymphocyte cells Jurkat was evaluated by MTT assay in vitro. SAR study suggested that the combination of 1-benzyl and 5-[trans-2-(methoxycarbonyl)ethen-1-yl] substitution greatly enhanced their cytotoxic activity. Among them, compound 2h was shown to have a significant cytotoxic activity with an IC50 value of 0.03 μM, more than 330-fold higher than that of it's mother molecule isatin. Investigation of the cell morphology changes and annexin-V/PI staining study demonstrated that compound 2h inhibited the proliferation of Jurkat cells by inducing apoptosis. Since compound 2h induced the dissipation of mitochondrial membrane potential and the activation of caspase-3, it was obvious that compound 2h inhibited the proliferation of Jurkat cells through the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Other than this, compound 2h exerted inhibition effect to many other tumor cells and only showed weak cytotoxic to human normal cells suggesting that compound 2h possessed a broad range of anticancer spectrum and high safety to normal cells.

- Fine-Tuning of Crystal Packing and Charge Transport Properties of BDOPV Derivatives through Fluorine Substitution
-
Molecular packing in organic single crystals greatly influences their charge transport properties but can hardly be predicted and designed because of the complex intermolecular interactions. In this work, we have realized systematic fine-tuning of the single-crystal molecular packing of five benzodifurandione-based oligo(p-phenylenevinylene) (BDOPV)-based small molecules through incorporation of electronegative fluorine atoms on the BDOPV backbone. While these molecules all exhibit similar column stacking configurations in their single crystals, the intermolecular displacements and distances can be substantially modified by tuning of the amounts and/or the positions of the substituent fluorine atoms. Density functional theory calculations showed that the subtle differences in charge distribution or electrostatic potential induced by different fluorine substitutions play an important role in regulating the molecular packing of the BDOPV compounds. Consequently, the electronic couplings for electron transfer can vary from 71 meV in a slipped stack to 201 meV in a nearly cofacial antiparallel stack, leading to an increase in the electron mobility of the BDOPV derivatives from 2.6 to 12.6 cm2 V-1 s-1. The electron mobility of the five molecules did not show a good correlation with the LUMO levels, indicating that the distinct difference in charge transport properties is a result of the molecular packing. Our work not only provides a series of high-electron-mobility organic semiconductors but also demonstrates that fluorination is an effective approach for fine-tuning of single-crystal packing modes beyond simply lowering the molecular energy levels.

- Synthesis, modification and docking studies of 5-sulfonyl isatin derivatives as SARS-CoV 3C-like protease inhibitors
-
The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) is a serious life-threatening and strikingly mortal respiratory illness caused by SARS-CoV. SARS-CoV which contains a chymotrypsin-like main protease analogous to that of the main picornavirus protease, 3CLpro. 3CLpro plays a pivotal role in the viral replication cycle and is a potential target for SARS inhibitor development. A series of isatin derivatives as possible SARS-CoV 3CL pro inhibitors was designed, synthesized, and evaluated by in vitro protease assay using fluorogenic substrate peptide, in which several showed potent inhibition against the 3CLpro. Structure-activity relationship was analyzed, and possible binding interaction modes were proposed by molecular docking studies. Among all compounds, 8k1 showed most potent inhibitory activity against 3CLpro (IC50 = 1.04 μM). These results indicated that these inhibitors could be potentially developed into anti-SARS drugs.

Forty four di- or trisubstituted novel isatin derivatives were designed and synthesized in 5-6 steps in 25-45% overall yields. Their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR and 13C NMR as well as LC-MS. The anticancer activity of these new isatin derivatives against three human tumor cell lines, K562, HepG2 and HT-29, were evaluated by MTT assay in vitro. SAR studies suggested that the combination of 1-benzyl and 5-[trans-2- (methoxycarbonyl)ethen-1-yl] substitution greatly enhance their cytotoxic activity, whereas an intact carbonyl functionality on C-3 as present in the parent ring is required to such a potency. This study leads to the identification of two highly active molecules, compounds 2h (IC50 = 3 nM) and 2k (IC50 = 6 nM), against human leukemia K562 cells.

- A novel strategy to the synthesis of 4-anilinoquinazoline derivatives
-
A novel approach to prepare 4-anilinoquinazoline derivatives based on the transformation of indoline-2,3-dione to formamidine was developed. The processes with this approach are simple, efficient, and environmentally friendly. The efficiency of this approach was evaluated by synthesizing 17 4-anilinoquinazolines and comparing the obtained yields with those achievable through conventional synthetic methods. It was the first time that compounds 8d, 8e, 8h, and 13b-f were synthesized. The characteristics of the IR and the UV spectra of these compounds and the effects of their substituents on the spectra were observed.

- Structure-based design, synthesis, andanticonvulsant activity of isatin-1-N-phenylacetamide derivatives
-
In an effort to develop the potent anticonvulsant agents, a series of novel isatin-1-N-phenylacetamide derivatives was synthesized and screened for their in vivo anticonvulsant activity against maximal electroshock test and evaluated for their neurotoxicity by the rotarod test at the same dose levels. Ten compounds exhibited the anticonvulsant activity. 2-(5-Methyl-2,3-dioxoindolin-1- yl)-N-phenylacetamide (4b) was found to be the most potent compound of the series with an ED50 of 91.3 mg/kg, TD50 of >1,000 mg/kg, a higher protective index (PI = TD50/ED50, >11) was gained than the reference drug phenobarbital and carbamazepine. The essential structural features responsible for interaction with receptor site are established within a suggested pharmacophore. Springer Science+Business Media 2013.

- Design, synthesis and antitumour activity of bisquinoline derivatives connected by 4-oxy-3-fluoroaniline moiety
-
A series of novel bisquinoline derivatives connected by a 4-oxy-3-fluoroaniline moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antitumour activities against a panel of five cancer cell lines (H460, HT-29, MKN-45, U87MG, and SMMC-7721). Most of compounds tested showed a potent activity and high selectivity towards the H460 and MKN-45 cell lines. Among the compounds tested, six (15d, 15e, 15m, 15n, 16a, and 16i) were further examined for their c-Met kinase activity; the compounds showed high efficacy with IC 50 values in the single-digit nM range. An analysis of structure-activity relationships indicated that an unsubstituted or a halogen-substituted phenyl ring on the 2-arylquinoline-4-carboxamide moiety was favourable for antitumour activity.

- Novel indoline-2,3-dione derivatives as inhibitors of aminopeptidase N (APN)
-
Aminopeptidase N (APN/CD13), as a zinc-containing ectoenzyme, plays a critical role in the process of tumor angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis. Through the docking-based virtual screening of chemical databases and the further activity assay, we discovered that compound 10c exhibits potent and selective inhibitory ability towards APN. In addition, a series of indoline-2,3-dione derivates have been designed and synthesized as APN inhibitors. The results of preliminary activity evaluation showed that compound 12a (IC50 = 0.074 ± 0.0026 μM) exhibited the best inhibitory activity against APN, which could be used for further anticancer agent research.

- Discovery of tryptanthrin derivatives as potent inhibitors of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase with therapeutic activity in lewis lung cancer (LLC) tumor-bearing mice
-
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO-1) is emerging as an important new therapeutic target for the treatment of cancer, neurological disorders, and other diseases that are characterized by pathological tryptophan metabolism. However, only a few structural classes are known to be IDO-1 inhibitors. In this study, a natural compound tryptanthrin was discovered to be a novel potent IDO-1 inhibitor by screening of indole-based structures. Three series of 13 tryptanthrin derivatives were synthesized, and the structure-activity analysis was undertaken. The optimization led to the identification of 5c, which exhibited the inhibitory activity at a nanomolar level. In vitro 5c dramatically augmented the proliferation of T cells. When administered to Lewis lung cancer (LLC) tumor-bearing mice, 5c significantly inhibited IDO-1 activity and suppressed tumor growth. In addition, 5c reduced the numbers of Foxp3 + regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are known to prevent the development of efficient antitumor immune responses.

- Discovery, Synthesis, and invitro Evaluation of West Nile Virus Protease Inhibitors Based on the 9,10-Dihydro-3H,4aH-1,3,9,10a-tetraazaphenanthren-4-one Scaffold
-
West Nile virus (WNV), a member of the Flaviviridae family, is a mosquito-borne pathogen that causes a great number of human infections each year. Neither vaccines nor antiviral therapies are currently available for human use. In this study, a WNV NS2B-NS3 protease inhibitor with a 9,10-dihydro-3H,4aH-1,3,9,10a-tetraazaphenanthren-4-one scaffold was identified by screening a small library of non-peptidic compounds. This initial hit was optimized by solution-phase synthesis and screening of a focused library of compounds bearing this scaffold. This led to the identification of a novel, uncompetitive inhibitor (1a40, IC50=5.41±0.45μM) of WNV NS2B-NS3 protease. Molecular docking of this chiral compound onto the WNV protease indicates that the Senantiomer of 1a40 appears to interfere with the productive interactions between the NS2B cofactor and the NS3 protease domain; (S)-1a40 is a preferred isomer for inhibition of WNV NS3 protease.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of 3-[4-(amino/methylsulfonyl)phenyl] methylene-indolin-2-one derivatives as novel COX-1/2 and 5-LOX inhibitors
-
Fourteen new 3-[4-(amino/methylsulfonyl)phenyl]methylene-indolin-2-one derivatives were synthesized. Six compounds displayed potent inhibitory activities against COX-1/2 and 5-LOX with IC50 in the range of 0.10-9.87 μM. Particularly, 10f exhibited well balanced inhibitory action on these enzymes (IC50 = 0.10-0.56 μM). More importantly, 10f and several other compounds had comparable or stronger anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities, but better gastric tolerability in vivo, as compared with darbufelone mesilate and tenidap sodium. Therefore, our findings may aid in the design of new and safe anti-inflammatory reagents for the intervention of painful inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis at clinic.

- Isatins inhibit cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase in a mouse macrophage cell line
-
Isatin is a versatile compound with a diversity of effects. We designed to investigate the inhibitory effect of isatin derivatives on lipopolysaccharide/interferon-γ-induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) proteins, production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), and their capacity to scavenge NO. Isatins inhibit TNF-α production and iNOS and COX-2 protein expression resulting on reduced levels of NO and PGE2. Our results indicate isatin and it derivatives as inhibitors of iNOS and COX-2 enzymes, which might be used as anti-inflammatory and antitumoral agents.

- Biological activities and quantitative structure-activity relationships of spiro[imidazolidine-4,4'(1'H)-quinazoline]-2,2',5(3'H)-triones as aldose reductase inhibitors
-
A series of spiro[imidazolidine-4,4'(1'H)-quinazoline]-2,2',5(3'H)-triones were prepared and tested for aldose reductase inhibitory activity. The 6'- halogenated derivatives were found to be highly potent in vitro inhibitors of male rabbit lens aldose reductase and in vivo inhibitors of polyol accumulation in the sciatic nerves of galactosemic rats. Of these, (4R)-6'- chloro-3'-methylspiro[imidazolidine-4,4'(1'H)-quinazoline]-2,2',5(3'H)-trione (67) showed the most potent in vitro and in vivo activities. An oral dose of 3 g/kg of compound 67 caused neither death nor behavioral abnormality in the preliminary acute toxicity study using mice and rats. Compound 67 was selected as a candidate for further evaluation. The quantitative structure- activity relationships in this series are also discussed.
