The synthesis and evaluation of 20 dinitroanilines and related compounds against the obligate intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii is reported. Using in vitro cultures of parasites in human fibroblasts, we determined that most of these compounds selectively disrupted Toxoplasma microtubules, and several displayed sub-micromolar potency against the parasite. The most potent compound was N1,N1-dipropyl-2,6-dinitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1,3- benzenediamine (18b), which displayed an IC50 value of 36 nM against intracellular T. gondii. Based on these data and another recent report [Ma, C.; Tran, J.; Gu, F.; Ochoa, R.; Li, C.; Sept, D.; Werbovetz, K.; Morrissette, N. Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 2010, 54, 1453], an antimitotic structure-activity relationship for dinitroanilines versus Toxoplasma is presented.
3-Halo-2,6-dinitro-4-trifluoromethylaniline
-
, (2008/06/13)
3-Halo-2,6-dinitro-4-trifluoromethylanilines having hydrocarbon substituents on the nitrogen atom. The hydrocarbon substituents can be alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl or a portion of a heterocyclic group. The compounds are especially useful as intermediates for preparing herbicidal dinitro-1,3-phenylenediamines.
