Mono- or di-substituted imidazole derivatives were synthesized using a one-pot, two-step strategy. All imidazole derivatives were tested for AChE and BChE inhibition and showed nanomolar activity similar to that of the test compound donepezil and higher than that of tacrine. Structure activity relationship studies, docking studies to on X-ray crystal structure of AChE with PDB code 1B41, and adsorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) predictions were performed. The synthesized core skeleton was bound to important regions of the active site of AChE such as the peripheral anionic site (PAS), oxyanion hole (OH), and anionic subsite (AS). Selectivity of the reported test compounds was calculated and enzyme kinetic studies revealed that they behave as competitive inhibitors, while two of the test compounds showed noncompetitive inhibitory behavior. ADME predictions revealed that the synthesized molecules might pass through the blood brain barrier and intestinal epithelial barrier and circulate freely in the blood stream without binding to human serum albumin. While the toxicity of one compound on the WS1 (skin fibroblast) cell line was 1790 μM, its toxicity on the SH-SY5Y (neuroblastoma) cell line was 950 μM.

Imidazo-1,5-alkynyl alcohol derivatives were synthesized, and they were cyclized to imidazo-1,4-oxazines by means of cesium carbonate. Propargyl-allene isomerization was examined, and the reaction mechanism was proposed. Moreover, cytotoxicity of synthesized molecules against LN405 cell lines was investigated by means of structure-activity relationship (SAR). With SAR study, toxicities of some functional groups have been shown. In addition, two lead compounds were tested against DNA damaging.

Novel imidazopyridine derivatives were synthesized according to a very simple protocol and then subjected to cytotoxicity testing against LN-405 cells. Two of the compounds exhibited antiproliferative effects on LN-405 cells at 10 and 75 μM and were selected as lead compounds for further study. Safety experiment for lead compounds on WS1 was carried out and IC50 values were calculated as 480 and 844 μM. LN-405 cell line were incubated with the lead compounds and then tested for DNA damage by comet assay and effects on cell cycle using flow cytometry. The results of these two tests showed that both lead compounds affected the G0/G1 phase and did not allow the cells to reach the synthesis phase. The log BB (blood–brain barrier) and Caco-2 permeability of the synthesized molecules were calculated and it was shown that imidazopyridine derivatives taken orally are likely to pass through gastrointestinal membrane and the blood–brain barrier.

The preparation of the 1-methyl(trimethylsilyl) (TMS)-substituted imidazoles 3a, 4a, 8, 9, and 11a by silylation of the corresponding metallated imidazoles is described.Carbodesilylation of 3 with aldehydes or carboxylic halogenides occurs selectively in 2-position.In the presence of a strong base (CsF) the reactivity against carbon electrophiles correlates well with the stability of the imidazolyl anions; regioselective carbodesilylation in 2-, 5-, or 4-position of the twofold TMS-substituted imidazoles 3a and 9 therefore is possible, which allows the synthesis of a great variety of hydroxyalkyl-substituted imidazoles and of acylimidazoles.By using the dimethylsulfamoyl substituent as an N-protecting group, the N-unsubstituted 5-benzoylimidazole (26) as well as the comparable 5-benzoyl-pyrazole (30b) and 5-(hydroxyphenylmethyl)pyrazole (30a) are accessible.

Literature routes to di(imidazol-4-yl)methanol (1a) dinitrate and tri(imidazol-4-yl)methanol (2a) trihydrochloride were improved to give 32 and 16percent overall yields, respectively; but we failed to synthesize bis- (1b) and tris-(1-methylimidazol-4-yl)methanol (2b) by the methylation of the corresponding N-methoxymethyl compounds (3; x=2 and x=3).Attempted 4-lithiation of the 1,2,5-protected imidazole (4a) with BuLi-TMEDA failed, giving after hydrolysis 1-methyl-5-trimethylsilylimidazole (4b); similar failures were observed for 2,5-dicarboxy-1-methylimidazole, which after metallation with BuLi-TMEDA and hydrolysis afforded 1-methylimidazole-5-carboxylic acid (5).Our attempts to obtain 4-bromo-1-methylimidazole (10a) and 4-bromo-1-ethylimidazole suitable for a halogen-lithium exchange or for Grignard reaction also failed.Attempted selective lithiation of 2-phenylthio-1-tritylimidazole (16) at the 4-position, then theatment with ethyl formate, led only to a mixture of 4- and 5-substituted products in very low yield, and 1-diethoxymethyl-2-phenylthioimidazole (18) was unstable and difficult to purify. 4-Bromoimidazole with two mol equiv. of t-butyl-lithium gives 1,4-dilithioimidazole, which is now shown to provide a general route to 4-substituted imidazoles.
