This work reports the synthesis of quinolone-N-acylhydrazone hybrids, namely 6-R-N'-(2-hydxoxybenzylidene)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carbohydrazide (R = H: 5a, F: 5b, Cl: 5c and Br: 5d), which exhibited excellent activity against arbovirus Zika (ZIKV) and Chikungunya (CHIKV). In vitro screening towards ZIKV and CHIKV inhibition revealed that all substances have significant antiviral activity, most of them being more potent than standard Ribavirin (5a-d: EC50 = 0.75–0.81 μM, Ribavirin: EC50 = 3.95 μM for ZIKV and 5a-d: 1.16–2.85 μM, Ribavirin: EC50 = 2.42 μM for CHIKV). The quinolone-N-acylhydrazone hybrids were non-toxic against Vero cells, in which compounds 5c and 5d showed the best selectivities (SI = 1410 and 630 against ZIKV and CHIKV, respectively). Antiviral activity was identified by inhibition of viral RNA production in a dose-dependent manner. In the evaluation of the time of addition of the compounds, we observed that 5b and 5c remain with strong effect even in the addition for 12 h after infection. The above results indicate that quinolone-N-acylhydrazones represent a new and promising class to be further investigated as anti-ZIKV and anti-CHIKV agents.

Background. CDK8/CycC complex has kinase activity towards the carboxyterminal domain of RNA polymerase II, and contributes to the regulation of transcription via association with the mediator complex. Different human malignancies, mainly colorectal and gastric cancers, were produced as a result of overexpression of CDK8/CycC in the mediator complex. Therefore, CDK8/CycC complex represents as a cancer oncogene and it has become a potential target for developing CDK8/CycC modulators. Methods. A series of nine 4-phenylaminoquinoline scaffold-based compounds 5a-i was synthesized, and biologically evaluated as potential CDK8/CycC complex inhibitors. Results. The scaffold substituent effects on the intrinsic inhibitory activity toward CDK8/CycC complex are addressed trying to present a novel outlook of CDK8/CycC Complex inhibitors with 4-phenylaminoquinoline scaffold in cancer therapy. The secondary benzenesulfonamide analogues proved to be the most potent compounds in suppressing CDK8/CycC enzyme, whereas, their primary benzenesulfonamide analogues showed inferior activity. Moreover, the benzene reversed sulfonamide analogues were totally inactive. Discussion. The titled scaffold showed promising inhibitory activity data and there is a crucial role of un/substituted sulfonamido group for CDK8/CycC complex inhibitory activity. Compound 5d showed submicromolar potency against CDK8/CycC (IC50 = 0.639 μM) and it can be used for further investigations and to design another larger library of phenylaminoquinoline scaffold-based analogues in order to establish detailed SARs.

Under CuBr·SMe2/PPh3 catalysis (5/10 mol-%) RMgCl (R = Me, Et, nPr, CH=CH2, nBu, iBu, nC5H11, cC6H11, Bn, CH2Bn, nC11H23) readily (–78 °C) undergo 1,4-addition to Cbz or Boc protected quinolin-4(1H)-ones to provide 2-alkyl-2,3-dihydroquinolin-4(1H)-ones (14 examples, 54–99 % yield). Asymmetric versions require AlEt3 to Boc-protected ethyl 6-substituted 4(1H)-quinolone-3-carboxylates (6-R group = all halogens, n/i/t-alkyls, CF3) and provide 61–91 % yield, 30–86 % ee; any halogen, Me, or CF3 provide the highest stereoselectivities (76–86 % ee). Additions of AlMe3 or Al(nC8H17)3 provide ≈ 45 and ≈ 75 % ee on addition to the parent (6-R = H). Ligand (S)-(BINOL)P–N(CHPh2)(cC6H11) provides the highest ee values engendering addition to the Si face of the 4(1H)-quinolone-3-carboxylate. Allylation and deprotection of a representative 1,4-addition product example confirm the facial selectivity (X-ray crystallography).
