Synthesis and biological evaluation of curcumin-like diarylpentanoid analogues for anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activities

A series of 46 curcumin related diarylpentanoid analogues were synthesized and evaluated for their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activities. Among these compounds 2, 13 and 33 exhibited potent NO inhibitory effect on IFN-γ/LPS-activated RAW 264.7 cells as compared to l-NAME and curcumin. However, these series of diarylpentanoid analogues were not significantly inhibiting NO scavenging, total radical scavenging and tyrosinase enzyme activities. The results revealed that the biological activity of these diarylpentanoid analogues is most likely due to their action mainly upon inflammatory mediator, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). The present results showed that compounds 2, 13 and 33 might serve as a useful starting point for the design of improved anti-inflammatory agents.

3,5-Bis(2-fluorobenzylidene)-4-piperidone induce reactive oxygen species-mediated apoptosis in A549 cells

The presence of the substituents in the ortho position of the aromatic ring(s) is helpful to strenghen the biological activity, highlighting a so-called ortho effect. In this paper, we synthesized six mono-carbonyl curcumin analogs with the fluorine group

Anti-inflammatory activity of ortho-trifluoromethoxy-substituted 4-piperidione-containing mono-carbonyl curcumin derivatives in vitro and in vivo

Curcumin was reported as an anti-inflammatory agent. However, curcumin's poor bioavailability limited its clinical utility. Here, thirty ortho-substituted mono-carbonyl curcumin derivatives, containing acetone, cyclopentanone, cyclohexanone or 4-piperidione (N—H, N-methyl or N-acrylyl) moieties replacing β-diketone moiety of curcumin, were investigated for anti-inflammatory activity. Two active ortho-trifluoromethoxy-substituted 4-piperidione-containing derivatives 22 and 24 owned good cell uptake ability, and displayed excellent anti-inflammatory activity in both lipopolysaccharide-induced Raw264.7 macrophages and a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced mouse model of colitis. They inhibited the production of nitric oxide, reactive oxygen species, malonic dialdehyde and cyclooxygenase-2; and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α and myeloperoxidase; the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases; and the nucleus translocation of p65. What's more, 22 or 24 oral administered reduced the severity of clinical symptoms of ulcerative colitis (body weight and disease activity index), and reduced obviously DSS-induced colonic pathological damage (the colon length and histopathology analysis). These results suggested that ortho-trifluoromethoxy-substituted 4-piperidione-containing mono-carbonyl curcumin derivatives 22 and 24 were potential anti-inflammatory agents; and offered the important information for design and discovery of more potent anti-inflammatory drug candidates.

Tandem hydrogenation and condensation of fluorinated α,β-unsaturated ketones with primary amines, catalyzed by nickel

A simple homogeneous catalytic system based on nickel phosphine complexes has been developed for the transfer hydrogenation and condensation of α,β-unsaturated ketones to yield saturated ones and saturated imines using primary amines as hydrogen donors. Thus, a wide range of fluorinated 1,5-diaryl-1,4-pentadiene-3-ones were allowed to react with substituted benzylamines in the presence of [(dippe)Ni(μ-H)]2 (dippe = 1,2-bis-(diisopropylphosphino)-ethane) using ethanol as a solvent at 180 °C to give the corresponding saturated carbonyl compounds; here hydrogenation of the CC bond was preferred over the CO bond. Under the same reaction conditions but using an excess of benzylamine, a tandem process is then favoured, starting also with the reduction of the CC bond followed by a nucleophilic addition of the primary amine to yield valuable saturated imines with good to excellent yields (62%-91%).

Efficient synthesis of trifluoromethylated cyclopentadienes/fulvenes/ norbornenes from divinyl ketones

The synthetic methods of trifluoromethylated cyclopentadienes/fulvenes/ norbornenes have been developed using 3-CF3-1,4-dien-3-ols as the synthons, which can be easily prepared by the regiospecific 1,2-addition of the Ruppert-Prakash reagent (TMSCF3) to divinyl ketones. All the reactions are carried out under mild, metal-free conditions to afford the corresponding products in high to excellent yields.

Mild and ecofriendly tandem synthesis, and spectral and antimicrobial studies of n1-acetyl-5-aryl-3-(substituted styryl)pyrazolines

N1-acetyl-5-aryl-3-(substituted styryl)pyrazolines were synthesized by the cyclocondensation of 1,5-substituted diphenyl-1,4-pentadien-3-ones with hydrazine hydrate and a cyclizing agent such as acetic acid in ethanol. The title compounds were synthesized using conventional and solvent-free approaches, which involves mechano-chemical mixing, microwave-irradiation, and ultrasound-irradiation methods in the presence of a solid support. The synthesized compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses and spectral data (IR, PMR, and FAB-mass). All the synthesized compounds have been evaluated for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. Some compounds have shown promising biological activity.
