Wang T, Lei Q, Tao K, Liu S, Yao X, Zhu Q. Fluorescent octahydrophenazines as novel inhibitors against herpes simplex viruses. Eur J Med Chem 2024; 275:116580. [PMID: 38896994 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2024.116580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
A new series of racemic fluorescent octahydrophenazines (rac-PZ1-11) have been designed and synthesized via the efficient nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) of tetrafluorobenzenedinitriles (1a-c) and racemic cyclohexane-1,2-diamines (rac-2a and b). The bioactivities of these racemic rac-PZs (20 μM) against herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) were evaluated by the relative cell viability of Vero cells infected with HSV-1. It was found that rac-PZ3 shows much higher anti-HSV-1 activity than others, with EC50 = 9.2 ± 1.4 μM. Further investigation into the anti-HSV activities of rac-PZ3 and its enantiomers RR- and SS-PZ3 indicates that rac-PZ3 can also efficiently inhibit HSV-2 and even ACV-resistant HSV-2 (EC50 = 11.0 ± 2.3 and 14.9 ± 2.8 μM, respectively), SS-PZ3 has better activities against HSV-1, HSV-2 and ACV-resistant HSV-2 (EC50 = 4.1 ± 1.1, 5.8 ± 1.0 and 7.9 ± 1.2 μM, respectively), but RR-PZ3 has almost no antiviral activities. The primary mechanism study indicates that rac-PZ3 efficiently reverses the HSV-1/2-induced cytopathic effect and suppresses the expression of viral mRNA and proteins. In addition, rac-, RR- and SS-PZ3 possess excellent fluorescence properties with almost the same emission wavelength and high fluorescence quantum yields (ΦF = 90.3-92.3 % in cyclohexane solutions and 54.4-57.3 % in solids) and can target endoplasmic reticulum and cell membrane. The efficient anti-HSV bioactivities and excellent fluorescence of PZ3 prove its potential applications in antiviral therapy and biological imaging.

Abstract
The evaluation of the significance of a chemical transformation addresses many factors, including such important characteristics as the number of chemical bonds formed in one step, the reaction time, labour intensity, the cost of reactants and catalysts and so on. The amount of waste produced in the reaction has also gained increasing importance in recent years. Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) occupy a special place as a synthetic tool in modern organic chemistry. These reactions allow the synthesis of target products with complex structures, minimizing labour costs. This review summarizes the literature on multicomponent reactions involving five or more components. The data in the review are classified according to the number of reactants participating in the reaction and the types of reactions. It is worth noting that in some cases, these transformations can be a part of a domino process, making this classification difficult, if not impossible. The structural diversity of the reaction products greatly increases with increasing number of components involved in the MCR, which becomes virtually unlimited when using combinations of MCRs. This review highlights the main trends of past decades in the field of MCRs. The last two decades have witnessed an explosive growth in the number of publications in this area of chemistry.

Abstract
More effective prophylactic and therapeutic strategies to combat influenza viruses are urgently required worldwide because the conventional anti-influenza drugs are facing drug resistance. Here, dihydropyrrolidones (DHPs), the products of an efficient multi-components reaction, were found to possess good activities against influenza A virus (IAV). Primary structure-activity relationship indicated that the activities of DHPs were greatly influenced by substituents and four of them had IC50 values lower than 10 μM (DHPs 5-2, 8, 14 and 19: IC50 = 3.11-9.23 μM). The activities against multiple IAV strains and mechanism of DHPs were further investigated by using 5-2 (IC50 = 3.11 μM). It was found that 5-2 possessed antiviral effects against all the investigated subtypes of IAVs with the IC50 values from 3.11 to 7.13 μM. Moreover, 5-2 showed very low cytotoxicity with CC50 > 400 μM. Results of mechanism study indicated that 5-2 could efficiently inhibit replication of IAV, up-regulate the expression of key antiviral cytokines IFN-β and antiviral protein MxA, and suppress the production of the NDAPH oxidase NOX1 in MDCK cells. These results indicated that 5-2 could be used as a potential inhibitor against wide subtypes of IAVs.

Abstract
A series of dihydropyrrol-2-ones (DHPs) were designed and synthesized via an efficient multicomponent reaction at room temperature for evaluation of their bioactivities against four human cancer lines (MCF-7, RKO, HeLa, and A549) in vitro. Preliminary structure-activity relationship studies showed that R4 = 3-MeO-4-OH-Ph is a crucial group for increasing cytotoxicities against RKO cells and the influences of R1-R3 depend on their combination. It was found that DHPs 5a, 5q, and 5s showed the best antiproliferative activities against A549, RKO, and all four studied cell lines, respectively (IC50 = 1.9, 0.8, and 0.9-2.4 μM). They can be used as new lead compounds for developing potentially selective or broad spectrum anticancer agents. 5q proves as a potent G0/G1-phase arresting agent inducing cell apoptosis by increasing/decreasing the levels of p53 and p21/cyclin D1.

Abstract
Dengue virus (DENV) annually infects 400 million people worldwide. Unfortunately, there is lack of widely protective vaccine or drugs against DENV. The viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of NS5 protein is highly conserved among different DENV subtypes, thus presenting itself as an attractive target for drug design. In the current research, SPRi was performed to screen compounds against DENV2 RdRp and 5(1H)-Quinazolinone,2-(4-bromophenyl)-2,3,4,6,7,8-hexahydro-7,7-dimethyl-1,3-diphenyl (Q63) was successfully screened out with a KD of 0.9 μM. Then, ITC and molecular docking assay was performed to access the binding mechanism between Q63 and DENV2 RdRp. Meanwhile, Q63 also decreased the intermediate dsRNA production, which was the product of RdRp. Further the antiviral effects of Q63 were evaluated on mosquito C6/36 cells and mammalian BHK-21 cells. Q63 reduced CPE and cell toxicity effect after DENV2 infection on C6/36 and BHK-21 cells, with an EC50 of 2.08 μM. Time of addition assay revealed that Q63 affected the early genome RNA replication stage, including genome RNA replication. In addition, Q63 down-regulated STAT1 phosphorylation, ISG15 and ISG54 after DENV2 infection. In summary, Q63 was found to be a novel RdRp non-nucleoside inhibitor and a potential lead compound for coping with DENV infectious disease in the future.

Abstract
The concept of synthetic fermentation is to 'grow' complex organic molecules in a controlled and predictable manner by combining small molecule building blocks in water-without the need for reagents, enzymes, or organisms. This approach mimics the production of small mixtures of structurally related natural products by living organisms, particularly microbes, under conditions compatible with direct screening of the cultures for biological activity. This review discusses the development and implementation of this concept, its use for the discovery of protease inhibitors, its basis as a chemistry outreach program allowing non-specialists to make and discover new antibiotics, and highlights of related approaches.

Abstract
Sequence-controlled polymers, including biopolymers such as DNA, RNA, and proteins, have attracted much attention recently because of their sequence-dependent functionalities. The development of an efficient synthetic approach for non-natural sequence-controlled polymers is hence of great importance. Multicomponent polymerizations (MCPs) as a powerful and popular synthetic approach for functional polymers with great structural diversity have been demonstrated to be a promising tool for the synthesis of sequence-controlled polymers. In this work, we developed a facile metal-free one-pot multicomponent tandem polymerization (MCTP) of activated internal alkynes, aromatic diamines, and formaldehyde to successfully synthesize structural-regulated and sequence-controlled polyheterocycles with high molecular weights (up to 69 800 g/mol) in high yields (up to 99%). Through such MCTP, polymers with the in situ generated multisubstituted tetrahydropyrimidines or dihydropyrrolones in the backbone and inherent luminescence can be easily obtained with high atom economy and environmental benefit, which is inaccessible by other synthetic approaches.
