Novel penta-1,4-diene-3-one derivatives containing quinazoline and oxime ether fragments: Design, synthesis and bioactivity

A series of novel penta-1,4-diene-3-one derivatives containing quinazoline and oxime ether moieties were designed and synthesized. Their anticancer activities were evaluated by MTT assay, the results showed that most compounds exhibited extremely inhibitory effects against hepatoma SMMC-7721 cells. In particular, compounds Q2 and Q8 displayed the more potent inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 0.64 and 0.63 μM, which were better than that of gemcitabine (1.40 μM). Further mechanism studies indicated that compounds Q2, Q8, Q13 and Q19 could control the migration of SMMC-7721 cells effectively, and inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells by inhibiting the DNA replication. Western-blot results showed that compounds Q2 and Q8 induced irreversible apoptosis of SMMC-7721 cells by regulating the expression level of apoptose-related proteins. Those studies demonstrated that the penta-1,4-diene-3-one derivatives containing quinazoline and oxime ether fragments merited further research as potential anticancer agents.

Discovery of quinazolinyl-containing benzamides derivatives as novel HDAC1 inhibitors with in vitro and in vivo antitumor activities

A series of quinazolinyl-containing benzamide derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) inhibitory activities. Compounds 11a surpassed the known class I selective HDAC inhibitor MS-275 in both HDAC1 enzymatic inhibitory activity and cellular anti-proliferative activity against a selected set of cancer cell types (Hut78, K562, Hep3B and HCT116 cells) with no observed effects on human normal cells. In particular, compound 11a inhibited HDAC1 over the other tested HDACs isoforms (HDAC2, HDAC6 and HDAC8) with acceptable safety profiles. Moreover, compound 11a displayed favorable oral pharmacokinetic properties and showed significant antitumor activity in the A549 tumor xenograft model in vivo.

Design, synthesis, and anticancer activities of sodium quinazolin-4-diselenide compounds

Substituted 4-chloroquinazoline reacted with sodium diselenide to give novel sodium quinazoline-4-diselenide compounds. The reaction provides an efficient and facile approach to the synthesis of sodium quinazoline-4-diselenide compounds. Structures of title compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and elemental analysis. MTT assay was adopted to show anticancer activities of the compounds. Compounds 5a and 5h showed good activities against cancer-cell lines MDA-MB-435, MDA-MB-231, A549, SiHa, and HeLa. In addition, 5a exhibited quite good anticancer effects on relative above cell lines with 10μM concentration compared with oxaliplatin and gefitinib of the commercial anticancer drugs.

Design, Synthesis and Bioevaluation of Two Series of 3-[(1-Benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl]quinazolin-4(3H)-ones and N-(1-Benzylpiperidin-4-yl)quinazolin-4-amines

Two series of 3-[(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl]quinazolin-4(3H)-ones and N-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)quinazolin-4-amines were designed initially as potential acetylcholine esterase inhibitors. Biological evaluation demonstrated that N-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)quinazolin-4-amines significantly inhibited AChE activity. Especially, two compounds of them were found to be the most potent with relative AChE inhibition percentages of 87 percent in comparison to donepezil. The docking studies with AChE showed similar interactions between donepezil and four derivatives. N-(1-Benzylpiperidin-4-yl)quinazolin-4-amines also exhibited significant DPPH scavenging effects. The two series of compound also exerted moderate to good cytotoxicity against three human cancer cell lines, including SW620 (human colon cancer), PC-3 (prostate cancer), and NCI?H23 (lung cancer), with 3-[(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl]quinazolin-4(3H)-one being the most cytotoxic agent. 3-[(1-Benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl]quinazolin-4(3H)-one significantly induced early apoptosis and arrested the SW620 cells at G2/M phase. From this study, two compounds of N-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)quinazolin-4-amines could serve as new leads for further design and AChE inhibitors, while 3-[(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl]quinazolin-4(3H)-one could serve as a new lead for the design and development of more potent anticancer agents.

Discovery of SP-96, the first non-ATP-competitive Aurora Kinase B inhibitor, for reduced myelosuppression

Aurora Kinase B is a serine-threonine kinase known to be overexpressed in several cancers, with no inhibitors approved for clinical use. Herein, we present the discovery and optimization of a series of novel quinazoline-based Aurora Kinase B inhibitors. The lead inhibitor SP-96 shows sub-nanomolar potency in Aurora B enzymatic assays (IC50 = 0.316 ± 0.031 nM). We identified the important pharmacophore features resulting in selectivity against receptor tyrosine kinases. Particularly, SP-96 shows >2000 fold selectivity against FLT3 and KIT which is important for normal hematopoiesis. This could diminish the adverse effect of neutropenia reported in the clinical trials of the Aurora B inhibitor Barasertib, which inhibits FLT3 and KIT in addition to Aurora B. Enzyme kinetics of SP-96 shows non-ATP-competitive inhibition which makes it a first-in-class inhibitor. Further, SP-96 shows selective growth inhibition in NCI60 screening, including inhibition of MDA-MD-468, a Triple Negative Breast Cancer cell line.

Synthesis and mode of action studies of novel {2-(3-R-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)phenyl}amines to combat pathogenic fungi

Due to their high specificity and efficacy, triazoles have become versatile antifungals to treat fungal infections in human healthcare and to control phytopathogenic fungi in agriculture. However, azole resistance is an emerging problem affecting human health as well as food security. Here we describe the synthesis of 10 novel {2-(3-R-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)phenyl}amines. Their structure was ascertained by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry, 1H and 13C NMR, and elemental analysis data. Applying an in vitro growth assay, these triazoles show moderate to significant antifungal activity against the opportunistic pathogen Aspergillus niger, 12 fungi (Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium fujikuroi, Colletotrichum higginsianum, Gaeumannomyces graminis, Colletotrichum coccodes, Claviceps purpurea, Alternaria alternata, Mucor indicus, Fusarium graminearum, Verticillium lecanii, Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium digitatum) and three oomycetes (Phytophtora infestans GL-1, P. infestans 4/91; R+ and 4/91; R?) in the concentration range from 1 to 50 μg/ml (0.003–2.1 μM). Frontier molecular orbital energies were determined to predict their genotoxic potential. Molecular docking calculations taking into account six common fungal enzymes point to 14α-demethylase (CYP51) and N-myristoyltransferase as the most probable fungal targets. With respect to effectiveness, structure–activity calculations revealed the strong enhancing impact of adamantyl residues. The shown nonmutagenicity in the Salmonella reverse-mutagenicity assay and no violations of drug-likeness parameters suggest the good bioavailability and attractive ecotoxicological profile of the studied triazoles.

A series of novel quinazoline derivatives containing a dithioacetal moiety were designed and synthesized, and their structures were characterized by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, 13C nuclear magnetic resonance, and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Bioassay results indicated that compound 4b exhibited remarkable protective activity against cucumber mosaic virus (CMV, EC50 = 248.6 μg/mL) and curative activity against potato virus Y (EC50 = 350.5 μg/mL), which were better than those of ningnanmycin (357.7 μg/mL and 493.7 μg/mL, respectively). Moreover, compound 4b could increase the chlorophyll content in plants, improve photosynthesis, and effectively induce tobacco anti-CMV activity.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of new tetramethylpyrazine-based chalcone derivatives as potential anti-Alzheimer agents

In the current study, a series of new ligustrazine-based chalcones was synthesized. For insertion of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP, also designated as ligustrazine) in chemical backbone of chalcone, a new ligustrazine-based aldehyde was prepared. New ketones were synthesized for inclusion of quinazolin-4-yl amino and pyrazin-2-yl amino moieties. The newly synthesized compounds were screened for acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, and monoamine oxidases (MAO) inhibitory activities and also for in vitro cytotoxicity on PC12 cells. The effect of these compounds against amyloid β-induced cytotoxicity and aggregation was also investigated. The synthesized compounds effectively inhibited the related enzymes and also exhibited neuroprotective effects. Most of the compounds displayed better inhibitory potencies against Aβ aggregation than reference compounds. Some compounds such as 11e and 16b showed very potent effects on multiple targets exhibiting behavior as multifunctional anti-Alzheimer agents.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel histone deacetylase inhibitors incorporating 4-aminoquinazolinyl systems as capping groups

A series of hydroxamic acid-based HDACIs with 4-aminoquinazolinyl moieties as capping groups was profiled. Most compounds showed more potent HDACs inhibition activity than clinically used drug SAHA. Among them, compounds 5f and 5h selectively inhibited HDAC 1,2 over HDAC8, and showed strong activity in several cellular assays, not possessing significant toxicity to primary human cells and hERG inhibition. Strikingly, 5f possessed acceptable pharmacokinetic characteristics and exhibited significant antitumor activity in an A549 xenograft model study at well tolerated doses.
