Du S, Hu X, Shao X, Qian X. Novel trifluoromethyl sydnone derivatives: Design, synthesis and fungicidal activity. Bioorg Med Chem Lett 2021; 44:128114. [PMID: 34015501 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2021.128114] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2021] [Revised: 04/23/2021] [Accepted: 05/15/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Crop pathogens reduce the yield and quality of agricultural production. The development of new fungicides will help to sustain this protection and overcome fungicide resistance. Sydnone is a kind of mesoionic, which has a wide range of biological activities. The application of sydnones in agriculture is less, and the study of these compounds will lead to the discovery of new active compounds. In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of noval sydnone mesoionic derivatives by active substructure splicing. All compounds were characterized using 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Among them, trifluoromethyl compound D17 showed good bioactivity against Pseudoperonospora cubensis (EC50 = 49 mg L-1) in vivo, the activity was similar to that of the control Kresoxim-methyl (EC50 = 44 mg L-1). However, the target of these compounds should not only be tyrosinase, and the mode of action needs to be further studied. In addition, the structure-activity relationship indicated that the trifluoromethyl group was more beneficial for antifungal activity. This is the first report that fluorine-containing N(3)-benzyl sydnone compounds have good fungicidal activity. These results will provide a basis for the development of sydnone mesoionic as new lead fungicidal agents.

Synthetic ( E)-3-Phenyl-5-(phenylamino)-2-styryl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-3-ium Chloride Derivatives as Promising Chemotherapy Agents on Cell Lines Infected with HTLV-1. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25112537. [PMID: 32486038 PMCID: PMC7321218 DOI: 10.3390/molecules25112537] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2020] [Revised: 05/20/2020] [Accepted: 05/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Synthesis of four compounds belonging to mesoionic class, (E)-3-phenyl-5-(phenylamino)-2-styryl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-3-ium chloride derivatives (5a–d) and their biological evaluation against MT2 and C92 cell lines infected with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1), which causes adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL), and non-infected cell lines (Jurkat) are reported. The compounds were obtained by convergent synthesis under microwave irradiation and the cytotoxicity was evaluated using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays. Results showed IC50 values of all compounds in the range of 1.51–7.70 μM in HTLV-1-infected and non-infected cells. Furthermore, it was observed that 5b could induce necrosis after 24 h for Jurkat and MT2 cell lines. The experimental (fluorimetric method) and theoretical (molecular docking) results suggested that the mechanism of action for 5b could be related to its capacity to intercalate into DNA. Moreover, the preliminary pharmacokinetic profile of the studied compounds (5a–d) was obtained through human serum albumin (HSA) binding affinity using multiple spectroscopic techniques (circular dichroism, steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence), zeta potential and molecular docking calculations. The interaction HSA:5a–d is spontaneous and moderate (Ka ~ 104 M−1) via a ground-state association, without significantly perturbing both the secondary and surface structures of the albumin in the subdomain IIA (site I), indicating feasible biodistribution in the human bloodstream.

Antioxidant effect of 1,3,4-thiadiazolium mesoionic derivatives on isolated mitochondria. Eur J Pharmacol 2015; 770:78-84.

Abstract
Mesoionic compounds have shown antitumor and citotoxic activity against different tumor cells lines, which has been attributed to their physical and chemical characteristics. Among these compounds, the 1,3,4-thiadiazolium-2-phenylamine derivatives have been highlighted due to their important anti-melanoma activity. In this work, the effects of three derivatives that belong this class, MI-J, MI-4F and MI-2,4diF, on the oxidative stress parameters were evaluated using rat liver mitochondria. All the derivatives prevented natural and calcium induced oxidation of pyridine nucleotides at lower concentrations (6.5 and 32.5nmol/mg protein). The calcium uptake was inhibited by all the derivatives at higher concentrations (65 and 130nmol/mg protein), whereas the cation efflux was inhibited only by the MI-J (52%) and MI-4F (50%), possibly by inhibiting the formation of the permeability transition pore (PTP) by 100% and 50%, respectively, as observed in the same experimental conditions. MI-2,4diF did not inhibit the mitochondrial permeability transition or calcium efflux. The enzymatic activity of glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase was not affected by any derivative, but superoxide dismutase was inhibited by all the derivatives. MI-J inhibited enzyme activity significantly (85%) at the highest concentration (130nmol/mg protein); on the other hand, their activity was less affected by fluorine derivatives (MI-4F-20% and MI-2,4diF-32%). These results suggest that these derivatives exert antioxidant effects on isolated mitochondria.
