A series of novel quinolinone-chalcone hybrids and analogues were designed, synthesized and their biological activity against the mammalian stages of Trypanosoma brucei and Leishmania infantum evaluated. Promising molecular scaffolds with significant microbicidal activity and low cytotoxicity were identified. Quinolinone-chalcone 10 exhibited anti-parasitic properties against both organisms, being the most potent anti-L. infantum agent of the entire series (IC50 value of 1.3 ± 0.1 μM). Compounds 4 and 11 showed potency toward the intracellular, amastigote stage of L. infantum (IC50 values of 2.1 ± 0.6 and 3.1 ± 1.05 μM, respectively). Promising trypanocidal compounds include 5 and 10 (IC 50 values of 2.6 ± 0.1 and 3.3 ± 0.1 μM, respectively) as well as 6 and 9 (both having IC50 values of 5 μM). Chemical modifications on the quinolinone-chalcone scaffold were performed on selected compounds in order to investigate the influence of these structural features on antiparasitic activity.

The condensation of 4-hydroxy-3-acetyl-1H-quinoline-2-one 1 and substitutedbenzaldehydes 2a-i in DMSO solution at room temperature yields quinolone chalcone derivatives 3a-i. L-Proline has been found to be an efficient catalyst for this condensation between 1 and 2. Only 5 mol% of the catalyst is necessary to achieve good yields of the products. Reactions proceed smoothly with variations of the substituents. 1 itself is synthesized by the acylation of commercially available methyl anthranilate 4 with acetoacetic ester 5 in refluxing xylene and subsequent Dieckman intramolcular cyclization of the intermediary 2-methoxycarbonylanilide 6.

A highly efficient, inexpensive, recyclable, green and solvent free protocol has been developed for crossed-aldol reaction. SiO2-OSO 3H has been found to be an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of 4-hydroxy-3-(3-phenyl-acryloyl)-1H-quinoline-2-one derivatives 3(a-i) from 4-hydroxy-3-acetyl-1H-quinoline-2-one (1) and substituted benzaldehydes 2(a-i). Reactions occurred smoothly with variations of the substituents. The reagent can be reused for five cycles with out sacrificing the yields and activity. This method is simple, convenient and the target compounds are produced in good to excellent yields. Compound 1 can be synthesized by the acylation of methyl anthranilate (4) with acetoacetic ester (5) in refluxing xylene and subsequent Dieckman cyclization of the intermediary 2-methoxycarbonyl anilide (6).
