Novel 2-substituted-6-[(4-substituted-1-piperidyl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazoles were designed and synthesized as Ebola virus inhibitors. The proposed structures of the new prepared benzimidazole-piperidine hybrids were confirmed based on their spectral data and CHN analyses. The target compounds were screened in vitro for their anti-Ebola activity. Among tested molecules, compounds 26a (EC50=0.93 μM, SI = 10) and 25a (EC50=0.64 μM, SI = 20) were as potent as and more selective than Toremifene reference drug (EC50 = 0.38 μM, SI = 7) against cell line. Data suggests that the mechanism by which 25a and 26a block EBOV infection is through the inhibition of viral entry at the level of NPC1. Furthermore, a docking study revealed that several of the NPC1 amino acids that participate in binding to GP are involved in the binding of the most active compounds 25a and 26a. Finally, in silico ADME prediction indicates that 26a is an idealy drug-like candidate. Our results could enable the development of small molecule drug capable of inhibiting Ebola virus, especially at the viral entry step.

Novel spiro bis-crown ethers derivatives with four benzo units connected via one carbon bridges have been prepared. These compounds represent well preorganized cavities with interesting complexation abilities towards cations. These macrocyclic were prepared by a four-step via template method by utilizing simple precursors catechol, oliethylen glycol and penta erythritol tetra bromide in good yield. Additionally, cesium carbonate could be used as an excellent base for these reactions.
Tuning the mesomorphic properties of liquid-crystalline dibenzotetraaza[14]annulenes - Discotic nematic phases of tetraalkoxy- substituted derivatives

scheme or table, p. 5127 - 5130 (2012/09/25)
A homologous series of five tetrasubstituted dibenzotetraaza[14]annulene- based discotic mesogens was prepared and studied using polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). A nematic phase was identified for the product bearing two peripheral isobutoxy and two dodecyloxy substituents.
