5-Isopropylidene-3-ethyl rhodanine II was prepared by conventional and Microwave assisted synthesis. For the first time, we found that rhodanine II treatment led to cytotoxicity in leukemic cell line, CEM by inducing apoptosis.

Bis adducts derived from a double Michael addition of rhodanine to an azo-ene system of two molecules of 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes (DDs) have furnished the corresponding 2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyridine-1,3,6-triones by means of a CS2 extrusion/double cyclization sequence. The incorporation of two units (4 and 2 atoms) of DDs into the fused bicyclic heterocycles represents a new application of this versatile class of molecules in heterocyclic synthesis.

The protease of dengue virus is a promising target for antiviral drug discovery. We here report a new generation of peptide-hybrid inhibitors of dengue protease that incorporate N-substituted 5-arylidenethiazolidinone heterocycles (rhodanines and thiazolidinediones) as N-terminal capping groups of the peptide moiety. The compounds were extensively characterized with respect to inhibition of various proteases, inhibition mechanisms, membrane permeability, antiviral activity, and cytotoxicity in cell culture. A sulfur/oxygen exchange in position 2 of the capping heterocycle (thiazolidinedione-capped vs rhodanine-capped peptide hybrids) has a significant effect on these properties and activities. The most promising in vitro affinities were observed for thiazolidinedione-based peptide hybrids containing hydrophobic groups with Ki values between 1.5 and 1.8 μM and competitive inhibition mechanisms. Rhodanine-capped peptide hybrids with hydrophobic substituents have, in correlation with their membrane permeability, a more pronounced antiviral activity in cell culture than the thiazolidinediones.
