Novel anti-inflammatory and analgesic heterocyclic amidines that inhibit nitrogen oxide (NO) production

Heterocyclic amidines with anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity that inhibit nitrogen oxide production, of formula (I): in which:G1 and G2 are hydrogen, halogen, hydroxyl, C1-C4 alkoxy, C1-C4 alkyl, and an amidino substituent of formula Q, provided that, for each compound of formula (I), only one of the two substituents G1 or G2 is an amidino substituent of formula Q: and in which the substituents W, Y and X are combined to form 9- or 10-membered bicyclic heteroaromatic derivatives containing up to 2 hetero atoms in the same ring; andZ is an aryl or heteroaryl group, a linear or branched C1-C6 alkyl or alkenyl chain, a C1-C4 alkyl-aryl group or a C1-C4 alkyl-heteroaryl group.

Structure-activity relationships of benzimidazoles and related heterocycles as topoisomerase I poisons

A series of substituted 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazoles were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of topoisomerase I. The presence of a 5-formyl-, 5-(aminocarbonyl)-, or 5-nitro group (i.e., substituents capable of acting as hydrogen bond accepters) correlated with the potential of select derivatives to inhibit topoisomerase I. In contrast to bi- and terbenzimidazoles, the substituted benzimidazoles that were active as topoisomerase I poisons exhibited minimum or no DNA binding affinity. 5-Nitro-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole exhibited the highest activity and was significantly more active than the 4-nitro positional isomer. The 5- and 6-nitro derivatives of 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzoxazole, 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzothiazole, and 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)indole were synthesized and their relative activity as topoisomerase I inhibitors determined. None of these heterocyclic analogues were effective in significantly inhibiting cleavable-complex formation in the presence of DNA and topoisomerase I, suggesting a high degree of structural specificity associated with the interaction of these substituted benzimidazoles with the enzyme or the enzyme-DNA complex. In evaluating their cytotoxicity, these new topoisomerase I poisons also exhibited no significant cross-resistance against cell lines that express camptothecin-resistant topoisomerase I.
