Abstract
A revised total synthesis of aurachin D (1a), an isoprenoid quinolone alkaloid that targets Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) cytochrome bd (cyt-bd) oxidase, was accomplished using an oxazoline ring-opening reaction. The ring opening enabled access to a range of electron-poor analogues, while electron-rich analogues could be prepared using the Conrad-Limpach reaction. The aryl-substituted and side-chain-modified aurachin D analogues were screened for inhibition of Mtb cyt-bd oxidase and growth inhibition of Mtb. Nanomolar inhibition of Mtb cyt-bd oxidase was observed for the shorter-chain analogue 1d (citronellyl side chain) and the aryl-substituted analogues 1g/1k (fluoro substituent at C6/C7), 1t/1v (hydroxy substituent at C5/C6) and 1u/1w/1x (methoxy substituent at C5/C6/C7). Aurachin D and the analogues did not inhibit growth of nonpathogenic Mycobacterium smegmatis, but the citronellyl (1d) and 6-fluoro-substituted (1g) inhibitors from the Mtb cyt-bd oxidase assay displayed moderate growth inhibition against pathogenic Mtb (MIC = 4-8 μM).

Abstract
The Burkholderia genus offers a promising potential in medicine because of the diversity of biologically active natural products encoded in its genome. Some pathogenic Burkholderia spp. biosynthesize a specific class of antimicrobial 2-alkyl-4(1H)-quinolones, i.e., 4-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-alkenylquinolines (HMAQs) and their N-oxide derivatives (HMAQNOs). Herein, we report the synthesis of a series of six HMAQs and HMAQNOs featuring a trans-Δ2 double bond at the C2-alkyl chain. The quinolone scaffold was obtained via the Conrad-Limpach approach, while the (E)-2-alkenyl chain was inserted through Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling under microwave radiation without noticeable isomerization according to the optimized conditions. Subsequent oxidation of enolate-protected HMAQs cleanly led to the formation of HMAQNOs following cleavage of the ethyl carbonate group. Synthetic HMAQs and HMAQNOs were evaluated in vitro for their antimicrobial activity against different Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria as well as against molds and yeasts. The biological results support and extend the potential of HMAQs and HMAQNOs as antimicrobials, especially against Gram-positive bacteria. We also confirm the involvement of HMAQs in the autoregulation of the Hmq system in Burkholderia ambifaria.

Abstract
The microwave assisted reaction between heterocyclic o-aminonitriles 1 and cyclic ketones 2 catalyzed by zinc chloride led to new series of pyrazolo[3,4-b][1,8]naphthyridin-5-amines 3 in good yields. This procedure provides several advantages such as being environmentally friendly, high yields, simple work-up procedure, broad scope of applicability and the protocol provides an alternative for the synthesis of pyrazolonaphthyridines. The whole series showed antifungal activities against Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans standardized strains, being compounds with a 4-p-tolyl substituent of the naphthyridin scheleton (3a, 3d and 3g), the most active ones mainly against C. albicans, which appear to be related to their comparative hydrophobicity. Among them, 3d, containing a cyclohexyl fused ring, showed the best activity. The anti-Candida activity was corroborated by testing the three most active compounds against clinical isolates of albicans and non-albicans Candida strains. These compounds were also screened by the US National Cancer Institute (NCI) for their ability to inhibit 60 different human tumor cell lines. Compounds 3a and 3e showed remarkable antitumor activity against cancer cell lines, with the most important GI50 values ranging from 0.62 to 2.18 μM.

Reductive heterocycle-heterocycle (heterocycle → heterocycle; H-H) transformations that give 4-aminoquinolines, 3-acylindoles, and quinolin-4(1H)-ones from 2-nitrophenyl substituted isoxazoles are reported. When this methodology is applied to 3,5-, 4,5-, and 3,4-bis(2-nitrophenyl)isoxazoles, chemoselective heterocyclization gives quinolin-4(1H)-ones, and 4-aminoquinolines, exclusively.

Abstract
![]()
A program was undertaken to identify hit compounds against
NADH:ubiquinone
oxidoreductase (PfNDH2), a dehydrogenase of the mitochondrial electron
transport chain of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. PfNDH2 has only one known inhibitor, hydroxy-2-dodecyl-4-(1H)-quinolone
(HDQ), and this was used along with a range of chemoinformatics methods
in the rational selection of 17 000 compounds for high-throughput
screening. Twelve distinct chemotypes were identified and briefly
examined leading to the selection of the quinolone core as the key
target for structure–activity relationship (SAR) development.
Extensive structural exploration led to the selection of 2-bisaryl
3-methyl quinolones as a series for further biological evaluation.
The lead compound within this series 7-chloro-3-methyl-2-(4-(4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzyl)phenyl)quinolin-4(1H)-one
(CK-2-68) has antimalarial activity against the 3D7 strain of P. falciparum of 36 nM, is selective for PfNDH2 over other
respiratory enzymes (inhibitory IC50 against PfNDH2 of
16 nM), and demonstrates low cytotoxicity and high metabolic stability
in the presence of human liver microsomes. This lead compound and
its phosphate pro-drug have potent in vivo antimalarial activity after
oral administration, consistent with the target product profile of
a drug for the treatment of uncomplicated malaria. Other quinolones
presented (e.g., 6d, 6f, 14e) have the capacity to inhibit both PfNDH2 and P. falciparum cytochrome bc1, and studies to determine
the potential advantage of this dual-targeting effect are in progress.

Abstract
![]()
Following a program undertaken to identify hit compounds
against
NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (PfNDH2), a novel enzyme target within
the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, hit to
lead optimization led to identification of CK-2-68, a molecule suitable
for further development. In order to reduce ClogP and improve solubility
of CK-2-68 incorporation of a variety of heterocycles, within the
side chain of the quinolone core, was carried out, and this approach
led to a lead compound SL-2-25 (8b). 8b has
IC50s in the nanomolar range versus both the enzyme and whole cell P. falciparum (IC50 = 15 nM PfNDH2; IC50 = 54 nM (3D7 strain
of P. falciparum) with notable oral activity of ED50/ED90 of 1.87/4.72 mg/kg versus Plasmodium
berghei (NS Strain) in a murine model of malaria when formulated
as a phosphate salt. Analogues in this series also demonstrate nanomolar
activity against the bc1 complex of P. falciparum providing the potential added benefit of a
dual mechanism of action. The potent oral activity of 2-pyridyl quinolones
underlines the potential of this template for further lead optimization
studies.
