- Structure-Activity Relationship Studies on Diversified Salicylamide Derivatives as Potent Inhibitors of Human Adenovirus Infection
-
The effective treatment of adenovirus (HAdV) infections in immunocompromised patients still poses great challenges. Herein, we reported our continued efforts to optimize a series of salicylamide derivatives as potent inhibitors of HAdV infection. Of these, nine compounds (11, 13, 14, 17, 20, 58, 60, 62, and 70) showed significantly improved anti-HAdV activities with nanomolar to submicromolar IC50 values and high selectivity indexes (SI > 100), indicating better safety windows, compared to those of the lead compound niclosamide. Our mechanistic assays suggest that compounds 13, 62, and 70 exert their activities in the HAdV entry pathway, while compounds 14 and 60 likely target the HAdV DNA replication, and 11, 17, 20, and 58 inhibit later steps after DNA replication. Given the broad anti-viral activity profile of niclosamide, these derivatives may also offer therapeutic potential for other viral infections.

- Structure and absolute configuration of some 5-chloro-2-methoxy-N-phenylbenzamide derivatives
-
The absolute configuration of 5-chloro-2-methoxy-N-phenylbenzamide single crystal [compound (1)] and the effect of introducing –[CH2]n–, n?=?1,2 group adjacent to the amide group [compounds (2) and (3)], were studied. Furthermore, the replacement of the methoxy group with a hydroxy group [compound (4)] was defined. Proton and carbon-13 NMR spectrometer were used to record the structural information of the prepared compounds. X-ray single crystal diffractometer were used to elucidate the 3D structural configurations. Intensity data for the studied compounds were collected at room temperature. The X-ray data prove that compound (1) is almost planar, with maximum r.m.s. deviations of 0.210(3)?? corresponds to C13. This planarity starts to disturb by adding –[CH2]n–, n?=?1,2 groups between the NH group and the phenyl ring in compounds (2) and (3), respectively. By replacing the OCH3 group by an OH group in compound (4), the plane of the chlorophenyl moiety is nearly perpendicular to that of the phenyl ring. Such new structural configurations were further illustrated by the infrared, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy measurements in the frequency range 400–4000?cm??1 and 190–1100?nm, respectively. Spectroscopic analyses were verified with the help of molecular modeling using density functional theory. The estimated total dipole moment for the prepared compounds reflects its ability to interact with its surrounding molecules. The higher dipole moment for a given structures is combined with the higher reactivity for potential use in medicinal applications.

- Structure-activity relationships of N-benzylsalicylamides for inhibition of photosynthetic electron transport
-
Inhibition of photosynthetic electron transport (PET) in spinach chloroplasts by sixty-one ring-substituted N-benzylsalicylamides was investigated. The inhibitory potency of the compounds expressed by IC50 value varied from 2.0 to 425.3 μmol/L. Several evaluated compounds can be considered as effective PET inhibitors; these include N-(3,4- dichlorobenzyl)-2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzamide (IC50 = 2.0 μmol/L), 3,5-dibromo-N-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)-2-hydroxybenzamide (IC50 = 2.3 μmol/L) and 3,5-dibromo-N-(4-chlorobenzyl)-2-hydroxybenzamide (IC50 = 2.6 μmol/L) with activity comparable with that of the standard Diuron (IC50 = 1.9 μmol/L). The PET inhibiting activity increased approximately linearly with increasing lipophilicity of the compounds as well as with the increasing sum of Hammett σ constants of the substituents on the acyl fragment (R1 = H, 5-OCH3, 5-CH3, 5-Cl, 5-Br, 5-NO2, 4-OCH3, 4-Cl, 3,5-Cl and 3,5-Br) and the benzylamide fragment (R2 = H, 4-OCH3, 4-CH3, 4-F, 4-Cl and 3,4-Cl). Based on the evaluated structure-PET inhibiting activity relationships (QSAR) it was confirmed that the inhibitory activity of the compounds depends on lipophilicity (log P or distributive parameters π1 and π2 of individual substituents) and electronic properties of the substituents on the acyl (σ1) and the benzylamide fragments (σ2), the contribution of σ1 being more significant than that of σ2.

- Structure-activity relationship of salicylic acid derivatives on inhibition of TNF-α dependent NFκB activity: Implication on anti-inflammatory effect of N-(5-chlorosalicyloyl)phenethylamine against experimental colitis
-
To develop a more potent NFκB inhibitor from salicylic acid which is known to inhibit activity of NFκB, a transcription factor regulating genes involved in immunity, inflammation and tumorigenesis, derivatives of salicylic acid (SA) where the 5 position, carboxyl or hydroxyl group was modified were treated in HCT116 cells transfected with an NFκB dependent luciferase gene and LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Amidation of the carboxylic group or substitution of chlorine at the 5 position increased the ability of SA to suppress the expression of NFκB dependent luciferase and inducible nitric oxide synthase, a product of an NFκB target gene. Moreover, simultaneous amidation and chlorination of SA (5-chlorosalicylamide; 5-CSAM) conferred an additive NFκB inhibitory activity on SA. To further enhance the inhibitory activity, N-modification was imposed on 5-CSAM. N-(5-chlorosalicyloyl) phenethylamine (5-CSPA), N-(5-chlorosalicyloyl)3-phenylpropylamine (5-CSPPA) and N-(5-chlorosalicyloyl)4-hydroxyphenylethylamine (5-CSHPA) showed greater potencies for inhibiting NFκB activity than other derivatives. Their IC50s' in the luciferase assay measured 15 μM (5-CSPA), 17 μM (5-CSPPA) and 91 μM (5-CSHPA). Rectal administration of 5-CSPA ameliorated TNBS-induced rat colitis, which was more effective than a conventional drug, 5-aminosalicylic acid. These data may provide useful information for development of a therapeutic agent for treatment of diseases where NFκB plays a critical role in the pathogenic progresses.

- On the relationship between the structure and antimycobacterial activity of substituted N-benzylsalicylamides
-
Sixty-six N-benzylsalicylamides substituted in the acyl moiety in positions 3, 4 or 5 and in position 4 on the benzylic aromatic ring were synthesized. The compounds were tested for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium avium. To evaluate structure-antimycobacterial activity relationships (QSARs), approaches based on the Free-Wilson as well as a combination of the Free-Wilson and Hansch methods were employed (substituent constants were used to describe the influence of the benzyl substituents, indicator parameters were used for the substituents on the acyl moiety). The use of the Hammett constants for benzyl substituents was not important for QSAR equations. The quadratic representation of lipophilicity parameters (π2) was significant only in QSAR equations of antimycobacterial activity against M. avium.
