Synthesis and Octopaminergic-agonist Activity of 3-(Substituted Phenyl)imidazolidine-2-thiones and Related Compounds

3-(Substituted phenyl)imidazolidine-2-thiones (SPITs) and related compounds were synthesized by cyclizing monoethanolamine hydrogen sulfate with arylisothiocyanates in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The activity for stimulating adenylate cyclase prepared from thoracic nerve cords of the American cockroach, Periplaneta americana L., was examined with these compounds. A SPIT with a 2,6-diethylphenyl group (48) was the only full agonist, the other SPIT derivatives being partial agonists. Greater enzyme activation appeared to result from short-chain alkyl rather than halogen substitution at the 2,6-positions of the aromatic ring of SPITs. Increasing the chain length from methyl to ethyl in 2,6-disubstituted SPIT caused an increase in the enzyme activation. Meanwhile, further increase of the chain length from ethyl to isopropyl in 2,6-disubstituted SPIT caused a decrease in the enzyme activation. Superimposition of energy-minimized octopamine and 48 revealed structural and conformational similarities that account for the higher Vmax value of 48. There was a marked decrease in the enzyme activation after alkylating at C4 or C5 of the imidazolidine ring of the potent SPITs. Thus, a certain degree of bulkiness and hydrophobicity at the 2- and 6-positions on the phenyl ring of a SPIT and the N-terminal was favorable for activating adenylate cyclase.

Crystal structure, antitumour and antimetastatic activities of disubstituted fused 1,2,4-triazinones

Molecular structure of 3,8-disubstituted 7,8-dihydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-4(6H)-ones (8-14) was confirmed by X-ray crystallography of 14. All the compounds were evaluated for their antitumour and antimetastatic activities in vitro. Furthermore, their cytotoxicities towards human normal cell line-HSF cells were established, allowing us to point out some structure-activity relationships. Among them, imidazotriazinone 12, revealing remarkable dose-dependent viability decreases in human myeloma RPMI 8226 cells, was found to be completely non-toxic towards normal HSF cells. In addition, heterobicycles 8-12 were proved to exhibit significant antimetastatic potentials in the motility assay.

Synthesis of imidazoline and imidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazole aryl derivatives containing the methylthio group as possible antibacterial agents

1-Arylimidazolidine-2-thiones (1a-g) were synthesized by the condensation reaction of N-arylethylenediamines with carbon disulfide in xylene medium. Their further alkylation with methyl iodide led to the formation of some biologically active 1-aryl-2-meth
