, (2022/01/08)
Described are fluorescent merocyanine dyes useful as labels for the detection of target molecules. The dyes may be conjugated to a binding agent, such as an aptamer, or used in label-free assays. An exemplary merocyanine dye termed 4QI based on its 4-meth

The wide spread of pathogens resistance requires the development of new antimicrobial agents capable of overcoming drug resistance. The main objective of the study is to elucidate the effect of substitutions in tris(1H-indol-3-yl)methylium derivatives on their antibacterial activity and toxicity to human cells. A series of new compounds were synthesized and tested. Their antibacterial activity in vitro was performed on 12 bacterial strains, including drug resistant strains, that were clinical isolates or collection strains. The cytotoxic effect of the compounds was determined using an test with HPF-hTERT (human postnatal fibroblasts, immortalized with hTERT) cells. The activity of the obtained compounds depended on the carbon chain length. Derivatives with C5–C6 chains were more active. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the most active compound on Gram-positive bacteria, including MRSA, was 0.5 μg/mL. Compounds with C5–C6 chains also revealed high activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis (1.0 and 0.5 μg/mL, respectively) and moderate activity against Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli (8 μg/mL) and Klebsiella pneumonia (2 and 8 μg/mL, respectively). However, they have no activity against Salmonella cholerasuis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The most active compounds revealed higher antibacterial activity on MRSA than the reference drug levofloxacin, and their ratio between antibacterial and cytotoxic activity exceeded 10 times. The data obtained provide a basis for further study of this promising group of substances.

A compound has Formula I: A, B, C, D, W, X, Y, and Z are independently selected from hydrogen, optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl, optionally substituted C1-C6 alkoxy, aryl, aldehyde, protected aldehyde, CH, N, O, S, null, and bond; Q is selected from aldehyde, protected aldehyde, and null, at least one of A, B, C, D, W, X, Y, Z, or Q is an aldehyde or protected aldehyde; the bonds between each of A-B, B-C, C-D, W-X, X-Y, and Y-Z are selected from single bond, double bond, triple bond, and no bond; L is a linker selected from a C1-C12 alkyl, aralkyl, and aryl, any of which is optionally substituted; one or more methylene unit (CH2) of the C1-C12 alkyl is optionally replaced by any combination of oxygen, carbonyl(C═O), and NH; and R1 and R2 are independently selected from —NR3R4, halogen, C1-C8 alkoxy, aralkoxy, alkenyloxy, alkynyloxy, and OCH2CH2CN; R3 and R4 are independently a C1-C4, straight chain or branched alkyl group.

Synthesis of six new canthine analogues has been developed using a one pot intramolecular aza-Diels-Alder (ADA) reaction as the key step. The synthesized compounds demonstrated moderate activity against HeLa cervical cancer cell lines.

One pot intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction has been efficiently used as a new route for the synthesis of four tetracyclic carbazoles and four isocanthine analogues where a dialdehyde is utilised as a common intermediate for both the scaffolds. Biological activity was evaluated for some molecules, which demonstrated moderate activity against HeLa cervical cancer cell lines.

Indole-3-carboxaldehyde was N-alkylated to give the corresponding acyclic nucleosides 3a-h which were condensed with 1-pyrenamine and 1-acetylpyrene to give 5a,c,e-g and 7b-d,e,g, respectively. The Schiff's bases 5a and 5e with 2-hydroxyethyl and methylthiomethyl N-1-substituents were found moderate active against HIV-1.
