In this study, a series of compounds derived from 4-methoxy-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione, potential ligands of phosphodiesterase 10A and serotonin receptors, were investigated as potential antipsychotics. A library of 4-methoxy-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione derivatives with various amine moieties was synthesized and examined for their phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A)-inhibiting properties and their 5-HT1A and 5-HT7 receptor affinities. Based on in vitro studies, the most potent compound, 18 (2-[4-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)butyl]-4-methoxy-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione), was selected and its safety in vitro was evaluated. In order to explain the binding mode of compound 18 in the active site of the PDE10A enzyme and describe the molecular interactions responsible for its inhibition, computer-aided docking studies were performed. The potential antipsychotic properties of compound 18 in a behavioral model of schizophrenia were also investigated.

Methionine synthase catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from 5-methyltetrahydrofolate to homocysteine, producing methionine and tetrahydrofolate. Benzimidazole and deazatetrahydrofolates derivatives have been shown to inhibit methionine synthase by competing with the substrate 5-methyltetrahydrofolate. In this study, a novel series of substituted benzimidazoles and quinoxalines were designed and assessed for inhibitory activity against purified rat liver methionine synthase using a radiometric enzyme assay. Compounds 3g, 3j, and 5c showed the highest activity against methionine synthase (IC50: 20 μM, 18 μM, 9 μM, respectively). Kinetic analysis of these compounds using Lineweaver-Burk plots revealed characteristics of mixed inhibition for 3g and 5c; and uncompetitive inhibition for 3j. Docking study into a homology model of the rat methionine synthase gave insights into the molecular determinants of the activity of this class of compounds. The identification of these drug-like inhibitors could lead the design of the next generation modulators of methionine synthase.

Phenylethylthiazolylthiourea (PETT) derivatives have been identified as a new series of nonnucleoside inhibitors of HIV-1 RT. Structure-activity relationship studies of this class of compounds resulted in the identification of N-[2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl]-N'-[2-(5-bromopyridyl)]-thiourea hydrochloride (trovirdine; LY300046.HCl) as a highly potent anti-HIV-1 agent. Trovirdine is currently in phase one clinical trials for potential use in the treatment of AIDS. Extension of these structure-activity relationship studies to identify additional compounds in this series with improved properties is ongoing. A part of this work is described here. Replacement of the two aromatic moleties of the PETT compounds by various substituted or unsubstituted heteroaromatic rings was investigated. In addition, the effects of multiple substitution in the phenyl ring were also studied. The antiviral activities were determined on wild-type and constructed mutants of HIV-1 RT and on wild-type HIV-1 and mutant viruses derived thereof, Ile100 and Cys181, in cell culture assays. Some selected compounds were determined on double- mutant viruses, HIV-1 (Ile100/Asn103) and HIV-1 (Ile100/Cys181). A number of highly potent analogs were synthesized. These compounds displayed IC50's against wild-type RT between 0.6 and 5 nM. In cell culture, these agents inhibited wild-type HIV-1 with ED50's between I and 5 nM in MT-4 cells. In addition, these derivatives inhibited mutant HIV-1 RT (Ile 100) with IC50's between 20 and 50 nM and mutant HIV-1 RT (Cys 181) with IC50's between 4 and 10 nM, and in cell culture they inhibited mutant HIV-1 (Ile100) with ED50's between 9 and 100 nM and mutant HIV-1 (Cys181) with ED50's between 3 and 20 nM.

A number of new imidazolo (pyrazino and diazepino) benzimidazoles have been prepared by reaction between 2-aminoalkyl (and aryl)benzimidazoles and dibromoalkanes Br-(CH2)n-Br under phase transfer catalysis conditions.These products have been characterized by 1H NMR, IR, MS and their microanalysis. --- Key words: heterocyclization / benzimidazole / diazepinobenzimidazole / benzimidazolo benzodiazepin
