Dermatomycoses are infections caused by fungi and yeasts and the drug treatment is considered expensive and extensive. Researchers are synthesizing new organic compounds in order to obtain more effective molecules that provide reduced adverse effects. Our research group has synthesized and evaluated the biological activities of aminoalcohol and diamine derivatives, which were considered active against human pathogenic fungi. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the in vitro antifungal activity of aminoalcohols and diamine derivatives against fungi and yeasts that cause dermatomycoses. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and the minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) of aminoalcohol (1–4) and diamine (5–13) derivatives was determined against Trichophyton mentagrophytes, T. rubrum, Epidermophyton floccosum, and Candida albicans according to protocols from the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. All molecules exhibited fungicidal activity against the evaluated fungal strains, with the MIC and MFC ranging between 0.12 and 1000 μg/mL for filamentous fungi and 0.6 and 1250 μg/mL for yeasts. The best activity was attributed to diamines compared to aminoalcohols, with an emphasis on molecules 6 and 7. These results demonstrate the antifungal potential of the evaluated aminoalcohols and diamines against the four primary fungal species that cause dermatomycoses. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Three series of d-galactose derivatives linked to a lipophilic aminoalcohol moiety were synthesized and their antibacterial activity was evaluated against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and representative species of Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. Five out of the thirteen tested compounds displayed activity against M. tuberculosis, with a minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 12.5 μg/mL and seven compounds were active against the four bacterial strains tested. The best results were obtained for amino alcohols 10 and 11 against Staphylococcus epidermidis (MIC Combining double low line 2 μg/mL). The antitumor activity was evaluated against three tumor cell lines (MCF-7, HeLa and MO59J) and compared to the normal cell line GM07492A. The results showed that the lowest IC50 values were observed for the amino alcohol 16 against MCF-7 (11.9 μM) and MO59J (10.0 μM).

Efficient delivery of plasmid DNA and siRNA into cells is essential for biological and biomedical research. Although significant efforts have been made to develop efficient nonviral vectors, such as cationic lipids and polymers, most of the vectors require multistep synthesis, which complicates both fast structural optimizations and combinatorial synthesis of such vectors. Here, we present a facile, single-step method based on an alkylation of amines, allowing for the fast parallel synthesis of libraries of cationic lipid-like molecules (lipidoids). We exploited the method to synthesize 200 lipidoids, which were screened for their transfection efficiency in HEK293T cells. The screen resulted in about 2% of new lipidoids capable of efficient cell transfection similar or higher than the efficiency of Lipofectamine 2000. In addition, we observed an enhancement of cellular transfection by combining single- with double-chain lipidoids, which was attributed to the different roles of the single- and double-tailed lipids in the mixed liposomes.

A series of pH sensitive single-tailed surfactants, N-alkyl-1,2- ethylenediamine (CmN2N, where m = 8, 10, 12, 14, 16), were synthesized and characterized. The adsorption and aggregation properties of them were determined by equilibrium surface tension, static and dynamic light scattering (SLS and DLS), rheology, and cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) techniques in detail. It was found that both the surface activity and self-assembly behavior of CmN2N were strongly dependent on the solution pH, owing to the protonation state of amino groups in CmN2N. When at least one of the amino groups of CmN2N was protonated the logarithm of the critical micelle concentration (cmc) followed the well-known Klevens equation, i.e. cmc decreased linearly with the increase of hydrocarbon chain length. Simultaneously, the surface adsorption area per molecule (Amin) was decreased for each CmN2N when the solution pH varied from acidic to basic conditions. The pH-dependent micelle to vesicle transition was universally observed in the bulk phase of CmN2N. More interestingly, the rodlike micelles formed in C10N2N, C12N2N and C14N2N could transform into vesicles reversibly upon heating or cooling, which indicated the thermal sensitivityof organized assemblies, whereas not in C8N2N and C16N2N.

Fluoroquinolone (FQ) has a broad spectrum of activity against several bacteria, mycobacteria, parasites, and other diseases. Moxifloxacin and gatifloxacin are a new generation of fluoroquinolone agents with improved activity against Gram-negative and positive bacteria. As lipophilicity is an important consideration in the design and activity of novel antibacterial agents, we report in this work the synthesis and biological evaluation of 12 lipophilic moxifloxacin or gatifloxacin derivatives, by reaction of 1-cyclopropyl-6,7-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-8-methoxy-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid 13 with severals N-monoalkyl 1,2-ethanediamine or 1,3-propanediamine.

, (2008/06/13)
This invention relates to compounds characterized by the presence of N-methyl, or substituted methyl, phosphonic acid and N-propylenesulfonic acid groups. These compounds contain at least one or more of each group and are bonded to the same or different amino groups. They are derived by reacting an amine with both propane sultone and with a carbonyl compound, such as formaldehyde, and phosphorous acid or its equivalent. They have a wide variety of uses, for example as scale and corrosion inhibitors, chelating agents, etc.
