A series of substituted di-indolglyoxylamido-spermine analogues were prepared and evaluated for intrinsic antimicrobial properties and the ability to enhance antibiotic action. As a compound class, intrinsic activity was typically observed towards Gram-positive bacteria and the fungus Cryptococcus neoformans, with notable exceptions being the 5-bromo- and 6-chloro-indole analogues which also exhibited modest activity (MIC 34–50 μM) towards the Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Several analogues enhanced the activity of doxycycline towards the Gram-negative bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa, E. coli, K. pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii. Of particular note was the identification of five antibiotic enhancing analogues (5-Br, 7-F, 5-Me, 7-Me, 7-OMe) which also exhibited low to no cytotoxicity and red blood cell haemolytic properties. The mechanisms of action of the 5-Br and 7-F analogues were attributed to the ability to disrupt the integrity of, and depolarize, bacterial membranes.

The dopamine (DA), serotonin (5-HT), and norepinephrine (NE) transporter releasing activity and serotonin-2A (5-HT2A) receptor agonist activity of a series of substituted tryptamines are reported. Three compounds, 7b, (+)-7d and 7f, were found to be potent dual DA/5-HT releasers and were >10-fold less potent as NE releasers. Additionally, these compounds had different activity profiles at the 5-HT2Areceptor. The unique combination of dual DA/5-HT releasing activity and 5-HT2Areceptor activity suggests that these compounds could represent a new class of neurotransmitter releasers with therapeutic potential.
A versatile linkage strategy for solid-phase synthesis of N,N-dimethyltryptamines and β-carbolines

(matrix presented) Various tryptamines are captured by a vinylsulfonylmethyl polystyrene resin, generating a safety-catch linkage. β-Carbolines can be formed from 4 by a Pictet-Spengler reaction with the introduction of R1. Tryptamine 4 can also be derivatized by acylation or copper-mediated coupling to introduce R2. If X = Br, Suzuki coupling can be used to introduce R3. After derivatization, the indole derivatives are activated with methyl iodide and released under mild basic condition.
