The critical micellar concentrations of selected alkyloxy homologues of local anesthetic 4-(2-[(2-alkoxyphenyl)carbamoyl]oxy ethyl)morpholin-4-ium chloride with nc = 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 carbons in alkyloxy tail were determined by absorption spectroscopy in the UV–vis spectral region with the use of a pyrene probe. Within the homologous series of the studied amphiphilic compounds, the ln(cmc) was observed to be dependent linearly on the number of carbon atoms nc in the hydrophobic tail: ln(cmc) = 0.705–0.966 nc. The Gibbs free energy, necessary for the transfer of the methylene group of the alkoxy chain from the water phase into the inner part of the micelle at the temperature of 25?C and pH ≈ 4.5–5.0, was found to be ?2.39 kJ/mol. The experimentally determined cmc values showed good correlations with the predicted values of the bulkiness of the alkoxy tail expressed as the molar volume of substituent R, as well as with the surface tension of the compounds.

In order to provide a more detailed view on the structure–antimycobacterial activity relationship (SAR) of phenylcarbamic acid derivatives containing two centers of protonation,1-[2-[({[2-/3-(alkoxy)phenyl]amino}carbonyl)oxy]-3-(dipropylammonio)propyl]pyrrolidinium oxalates (1a–d)/dichlorides (1e–h) as wellas1-[2-[({[2-/3-(alkoxy)phenyl]amino}carbonyl)oxy]-3-(di-propylammonio)propyl]azepanium oxalates (1i–l)/dichlorides (1m–p; alkoxy = butoxy to heptyloxy) were physicochemically characterized by estimation of their surface tension (γ; Traube’s stalagmometric method), electronic features (log ε; UV/Vis spectrophotometry) and lipophilic properties (log kw; isocratic RP-HPLC) as well. The experimental log kw dataset was studied together with computational logarithms of partition coefficients (log P) generated by various methods based mainly on atomic or combined atomic and fragmental principles. Similarities and differences between the experimental and in silico lipophilicity descriptors were analyzed by unscaled principal component analysis (PCA). The in vitro activity of compounds 1a–p was inspected against Mycobacterium tuberculosis CNCTC My 331/88 (identical with H37Rv and ATCC 2794, respectively), M. tuberculosis H37Ra ATCC 25177, M. kansasii CNCTC My 235/80 (identical with ATCC 12478), the M. kansasii 6509/96 clinical isolate, M. kansasii DSM 44162, M. avium CNCTC My 330/80 (identical with ATCC 25291), M. smegmatis ATCC 700084 and M. marinum CAMP 5644, respectively. In vitro susceptibility of the mycobacteria to reference drugs isoniazid, ethambutol, ofloxacin or ciprofloxacin was tested as well. A very unique aspect of the research was that many compounds from the set 1a–p were highly efficient almost against all tested mycobacteria. The most promising derivatives showed MIC values varied from 1.9 μM to 8 μM, which were lower compared to those of used standards, especially if concerning ability to fight M. tuberculosis H37Ra ATCC 25177, M. kansasii DSM 44162 or M. avium CNCTC My 330/80. Current in vitro biological assays and systematic SAR studies based on PCA approach as well as fitting procedures, which were supported by relevant statistical descriptors, proved that the compounds 1a–p represented a very promising molecular framework for development of ‘non-traditional’ but effective antimycobacterial agents.

The evaluation of the lipophilic characteristics of biologically active agents is indispensable for the rational design of ADMET-tailored structure–activity models. N-Alkoxy-3-hydroxynaphthalene-2-carboxanilides, N-alkoxy-1-hydroxynaphthalene-2-carboxanilides, and N-alkoxy-2-hydroxynaphthalene-1-carboxanilides were recently reported as a series of compounds with antimycobacterial, antibacterial, and herbicidal activity. As it was found that the lipophilicity of these biologically active agents determines their activity, the hydro-lipophilic properties of all three series were investigated in this study. All 57 anilides were analyzed using the reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method for the measurement of lipophilicity. The procedure was performed under isocratic conditions with methanol as an organic modifier in the mobile phase using an end-capped non-polar C18 stationary reversed-phase column. In the present study, a range of software lipophilicity predictors for the estimation of clogP values of a set of N-alkoxyphenylhydroxynaphthalenecarboxamides was employed and subsequently cross-compared with experimental parameters. Thus, the empirical values of lipophilicity (logk) and the distributive parameters (π) were compared with the corresponding in silico characteristics that were calculated using alternative methods for deducing the lipophilic features. To scrutinize (dis)similarities between the derivatives, a PCA procedure was applied to visualize the major differences in the performance of molecules with respect to their lipophilic profile, molecular weight, and violations of Lipinski’s Rule of Five.

A series of fifteen new N-alkoxyphenylanilides of 3-hydroxynaphthalene-2-carboxylic acid was prepared and characterized. Primary in vitro screening of the synthesized compounds was performed against Staphylococcus aureus, three methicillin-resistant S. aureus strains, Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra and M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis. Some of the tested compounds showed antibacterial and antimycobacterial activity against the tested strains comparable with or higher than that of the standards ampicillin or rifampicin. 3-Hydroxy-N-(2-propoxyphenyl)naphthalene-2-carboxamide and N-[2-(but-2-yloxy)-phenyl]-3-hydroxynaphthalene-2-carboxamide had MIC = 12 μM against all methicillin-resistant S. aureus strains; thus their activity is 4-fold higher than that of ampicillin. The second mentioned compound as well as 3-hydroxy-N-[3-(prop-2-yloxy)phenyl]-naphthalene-2-carboxamide had MICs = 23 μM and 24 μM against M. tuberculosis respectively. N-[2-(But-2-yloxy)phenyl]-3-hydroxynaphthalene-2-carboxamide demonstrated higher activity against M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis than rifampicin. Screening of the cytotoxicity of the most effective antimycobacterial compounds was performed using THP-1 cells, and no significant lethal effect was observed for the most potent compounds. The compounds were additionally tested for their activity related to inhibition of photosynthetic electron transport (PET) in spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) chloroplasts. N-(3-Ethoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxynaphthalene-2-carboxamide (IC50 = 4.5 μM) was the most active PET inhibitor. The structure-activity relationships are discussed.

A series of conformationally flexible bicyclic N-arylimides were employed as molecular balances to study the weak aliphatic CH-π interaction between alkyl and arene groups. The formation of intramolecular CH-π interactions in the folded conformers was characterized by X-ray crystallography. The strengths of the interactions were characterized in CDCl3 by the changes in the folded/unfolded ratios, as measured by 1H NMR. The CH-π interaction between a methyl group and an aromatic surface was ~1.0 kcal/mol and was easily disrupted or masked by conformational entropy and repulsive steric interactions.

Based on the fact that petroselinic acid showed good inhibitory activity (IC50=6.99μmol/L) against protein tyrosine phophatase 1B(PTP1B) in vitro, a series of novel N-(alkoxyphenyl)-aminocarbonylbenzoic acid derivatives were designed and synthesized. The results indicated that most of the derivatives showed more potent activities against PTP1B. Especially, compound 13 had obvious activity with an IC50 of 106nmol/L in vitro.
Activity of aromatic substituted phenylpiperazines lacking affinity for dopamine binding sites in a preclinical test of antipsychotic efficacy

Generally, antipsychotic agents are dopamine receptor blocking agents that also block conditioned avoidance responding (CAR) in the rat. Recently, however, both (o-methoxyphenyl)piperazine (OMPP, 1h) and (m-chlorophenyl)piperazine (MCPP, 1o) have been reported to block conditioned avoidance responding in the rat although neither has dopamine receptor blocking properties. The present paper examines the behavioral and biochemical profile of a number of additional substituted phenylpiperazines. None of the phenylpiperazines tested demonstrated high affinity for either dopamine D-1 or D-2 receptor sites, yet many effective in blocking CAR. The results suggest that the phenylpiperazines may be effective antipsychotic agents without blocking dopamine receptors. Moreover, the active compounds did demonstrate activity in displacing ligand binding to serotonin receptors. Receptor binding profiles were determined for 5-HT-1A and 5-HT-1B binding sites as well as for 5-HT-2 sites. The data from this preclinical test suggest these phenylpiperazines might be effective antipsychotic agents acting via a nondopaminergic mechanism of action.
