Many artemisinin derivatives have good inhibitory effects on malignant tumors. In this work, a novel series of artemisinin derivatives containing piperazine and fluorine groups were designed and synthesized and their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS technologies. The in vitro cytotoxicity against various cancer cell lines was evaluated. Among the derivatives, compound 12h was found to exhibit not only the best activity against HCT-116 cells (IC50 = 0.12 ± 0.05 μM), but also low toxicity against normal cell line L02 (IC50 = 12.46 ± 0.10 μM). The mechanisms study revealed that compound 12h caused the cell cycle arrest in G1 phase, induced apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner, significantly reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, increased intracellular ROS and Ca2+ levels, up-regulated the expression of Bax, cleaved caspase-9, cleaved caspase-3, and down-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 protein. A series of analyses confirmed that 12h can inhibit HCT-116 cells migration and induce apoptosis by a mechanism of the mitochondria-mediated pathway in the HCT-116 cell line. The present work indicates that compound 12h may merit further investigation as a potential therapeutic agent for colorectal cancer.

The invention provides artemisinin derivatives containing a piperazine ring and a fluorine element, and a preparation method and an application of the artemisinin derivatives. The structures of the compounds are verified through 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS technologies, and in vitro cytotoxicity to MCF-7, A549, PC12, SH-SY5Y, U87MG, U118MG and HCT116 cancer cell lines is evaluated through MTT analysis. Results show that the artemisinin derivatives provided by the invention can more effectively inhibit the growth of cancer cell lines than artemisinin, and has potential application value in preparation of antitumor drugs.

Fentanyl is a powerful opiate analgesic typically used for the treatment of severe and chronic pain, but its prescription is strongly limited by the well-documented side-effects. Different approaches have been applied to develop strong analgesic drugs with reduced pharmacologic side-effects. One of the most promising is the design of multitarget drugs. In this paper we report the synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation of twelve new 4-anilidopiperidine (fentanyl analogues). In vivo hot-Plate test, shows a moderate antinociceptive activity for compounds OMDM585 and OMDM586, despite the weak binding affinity on both μ and δ-opioid receptors. A strong inverse agonist activity in the GTP-binding assay was revealed suggesting the involvement of alternative systems in the brain. Fatty acid amide hydrolase inhibition was evaluated, together with binding assays of cannabinoid receptors. We can conclude that compounds OMDM585 and 586 are capable to elicit antinociception due to their multitarget activity on different systems involved in pain modulation.

A series of twenty-five derivatives of tetrahydro-β-carbolines 1-3 was synthesized and assayed on FAAH and TRPV1 and TRPA1 channels. Four carbamates, that is, 5a,c,e, and 9b inhibited FAAH with significant potency and interacted also effectively with TRPV1 and TRPA1 nociceptive receptors, while ureas 7b,d,f, and 8a,b were endowed with specific submicromolar TRPV1 modulating activities.

The evaluation of a series of piperazinyl carbamates and ureas, designed on the basis of previously reported TRPV1 antagonists and FAAH inhibitors, led to the identification of some 'dual-action' compounds targeting both FAAH and TRPV1 or TRPA1 receptors.

N-Arachidonoylserotonin (AA-5-HT, 1a) is an inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) that acts also as an antagonist of transient receptor potential vanilloid-type 1 (TRPV1) channels and is analgesic in rodents. We modified the chemical structure of 1a with the aim of developing "hybrid" FAAH/TRPV1 blockers more potent than the parent compound or obtaining analogues with single activity at either of the two targets to study the mechanism of the analgesic action of 1a. Thirty-eight AA-5-HT analogues, containing a serotonin "head" bound to a variety of lipophilic moieties via amide, urea, or carbamate functionalities, were synthesized. Unlike 1a, most of the new compounds possessed activity at only one of the two considered targets. The amides 1b and 1c of α- and γ-linolenic acid, however, showed "hybrid" activity similar to 1a. The carbamate 3f (OMDM106), although unable to antagonize TRPV1 receptors, was the most potent FAAH inhibitor in this study (IC50 = 0.5 μM). Compounds 3f and 1m (OMDM129), which exhibited activity at only FAAH or TRPV1, respectively, were 10-fold less potent than 1a at preventing formalin-induced hyperalgesia in mice.
Cyclization-Activated Prodrugs: N-(Substituted 2-hydroxyphenyl and 2-hydroxypropyl)carbamates Based on Ring-Opened Derivatives of Active Benzoxazolones and Oxazolidinones as Mutual Prodrugs of Acetaminophen

N-(Substituted 2-hydroxyphenyl)- and N-(substituted 2-hydroxypropyl)carbamates based on masked active benzoxazolones (model A) and oxazolidinones (model B), respectively, were synthesized and evaluated as potential drug delivery systems.A series of alkyl and aryl N-(5-chloro-2-hydroxyphenyl)carbamates 1 related to model A was prepared.These are open drugs of the skeletal muscle relaxant chlorzoxazone.The corresponding 4-acetamidophenyl ester named chloracetamol is a mutual prodrug of chloroxazone and acetaminophen.Chlorzacetamol and two other mutual prodrugs of active bezoxazolones and acetaminophen were obtained in a two-step process via condensation of 4-acetamidophenyl 1,2,2,2-tetrachloroethyl carbonate with the appropiate anilines.Based on model B, two mutual prodrugs of acetaminophen and active oxazolidinones (metaxalone and mephenoxalone) were similarly obtained using the appropiate amines.All the carbamate prodrugs prepared were found to release the parent drugs in aqueous (pH 6-11) and plasma (pH 7.4) media.The detailed mechanistic study of prodrugs 1 carried out in aqueous medium at 37 deg C shows a change in the Broensted-type relationship log t1/2 vs pKa of the leaving groups ROH: log t1/2 = 0.46pKa - 3.55 for aryl and trihalogenoethyl esters and log t1/2 = 1.46pKa - 16.03 for alkyl esters.This change is consistent with a cyclization mechanism involving a change in the rate-limiting step from formation of a cyclic tetrahedral intermediate (step k1) to departure of the leaving group ROH (step k2) when the leaving group ability decreases.This mechanism occurs for all the prodrugs related to model A.Regeneration of the parent drugs from mutual prodrugs related to model B takes place by means of a rate-limiting elimination-addition reaction (E1cB mechanism).This affords acetaminophen and the corresponding 2-hydroxypropyl isocyanate intermediates which cyclize at any pH to the corresponding oxazolidinone drugs.As opposed to model A, the rates of hydrolysis of mutual prodrugs of model B clearly exhibit a catalytic role of the plasma.It is concluded from the plasma studies that the carbamate substrates can be enzymatically transformed into potent electrophiles, i.e., isocyanates.In the case of the present study, the prodrugs are 2-hydroxycarbamates for which the propinquity of the hydroxyl residue and the isocyanate group enforces a cyclization reaction.This mechanistic particularity precludes their potential toxicity in terms of potent electrophiles capable of modifying critical macromolecules.
