This work describes the synthesis of a series of quaternary ammonium salts and the assessment of their in vitro antileishmanial activity and cytotoxicity. A preliminary discussion on a structure-activity relationship of the compounds is also included. Three series of quaternary ammonium salts were prepared: (i) halomethylated quaternary ammonium salts (series I); (ii) non-halogenated quaternary ammonium salts (series II) and (iii) halomethylated choline analogs (series III). Assessments of their in vitro cytotoxicity in human promonocytic cells U-937 and antileishmanial activity in axenic amastigotes of L. (Viannia) panamensis (M/HOM/87/UA140-pIR-eGFP) were carried out using the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide) micromethod. Antileishmanial activity was also tested in intracellular amastigotes of L. (V) panamensis using flow cytometry. High toxicity for human U937 cells was found with most of the compounds, which exhibited Lethal Concentration 50 (LC50 ) values in the range of 9 to 46 μg/mL. Most of the compounds evidenced antileishmanial activity. In axenic amastigotes, the antileishmanial activity varied from 14 to 57 μg/mL, while in intracellular amastigotes their activity varied from 17 to 50 μg/mL. N-Chloromethyl-N,N-dimethyl-N-(4,4-diphenylbut-3-en-1-yl)ammonium iodide (1a), N-iodomethyl-N,N-dimethyl-N-(4,4-diphenylbut-3-en-1-yl)ammonium iodide (2a), N,N,N-trimethyl-N-(4,4-diphenylbut-3-en-1-yl)ammonium iodide (3a) and N,N,N-trimethyl-N-(5,5-diphenylpent-4-en-1-yl)ammonium iodide (3b) turned out to be the most active compounds against intracellular amastigotes of L. (V) panamensis, with EC50 values varying between 24.7 for compound 3b and 38.4 μg/mL for compound 1a. Thus, these compounds represents new "hits" in the development of leishmanicidal drugs.

A concise and practical synthesis of chiral N-benzyl-α,α- diaryl-2-prolinols was developed through Shi asymmetric epoxidation, followed by double nucleophilic substitution of bromo-containing olefins. A series of enantioenriched N-benzyl-α,α-diaryl-2-prolinols were obtained with excellent enantioselectivities (96% ee) in moderate to good yields (40-76% yield). For the first time, enantiopure N-benzyl-α,α-diphenyl-2- prolinol was obtained from bromo-containing olefin using this methodology. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart, New York.

The 1-hydroxy-1-methyl-6,6-diphenyl-5-hexenyl radical (4a) and the 1-hydroxy-1-methyl-7,7-diphenyl-6-heptenyl radical (4b) were prepared from the corresponding PTOC esters (anhydrides of a carboxylic acid and N-hydroxypyridine-2-thione). The key step in the synthetic method for the precursors was a coupling reaction of the respective carboxylic acids with the thiohydroxamic acid, which was conducted for ca. 5 min and followed rapidly by chromatography. Rate constants for cyclizations of radicals 4a and 4b in acetonitrile and in THF were measured directly between -30 and 60 °C by laser flash photolysis methods. The Arrhenius functions in acetonitrile are log k = 9.9-2.6/2.303RT and log k = 8.9-4.4/2.303RT (kcal mol-1) for 4a and 4b, respectively. Rate constants for cyclizations at room temperature of 9 × 107 s-1 and 4 × 105 s -1 are somewhat larger than the rate constants for cyclizations of analogous alkyl radicals. Crude rate constants at room temperature for H-atom trapping of 4a by thiophenol and 4b by t-butylthiol were kT = 1.2 × 109 M-1 s-1 and kT = 2 × 107 M-1 s-1, respectively, which are modestly larger than rate constants for reactions of alkyl radicals with the same trapping agents.

One-pot synthesis of diarylalkylcarbinols and substituted derivatives through carbon monoxide insertion reactions into aryllithiums
Vitale, Arturo A.,Doctorovich, F.,Nudelman, N. Sbarbati
, p. 9 - 18 (2007/10/02)
The carbonylation of a THF solution of aryllithium (aryl = Ph, o-anisyl) in the presence of an alkyl bromide, RBr; at atmospheric pressure and -78 deg C, affords diarylalkylcarbinols in good yields.Alkyl chlorides do not react under similar experimental conditions.This feature makes the reaction particularly useful for the synthesisof alcohols functionalized in the alkyl chain through subsequent reactions of the diaryl(chloro)alkylcarbinols.The procedure can also be adapted to afford substituted cyclic ethers.If the reaction is carried out in the presence of dibromoalkanes, only one bromine atom reacts, affording diaryl(bromo)alkylcarbinols which are useful intermediates.With secondary and tertiary alkyl bromides diaryl alkyl ethers are obtained in variable yields.
