Abstract
The effect of the structure of promising antioxidant agents with prospective medical use, i.e., unsubstituted and para-substituted annelated triazinylacetic acid hydrazides, on their melting points, thermal stabilities, pyrolysis and oxidative decomposition stages and the type of volatiles emitted under heating with the use of DSC and TG/DTG/FTIR/QMS methods was evaluated and discussed. The melting point of the investigated compounds increased with an enhanced number of electrons (directly correlated with their molecular weight). Melting enthalpy values were determined and presented for all the studied compounds. The pyrolysis and oxidative decomposition processes of the analysed molecules consisted of several poorly separated stages, which indicated a multi-step course of the decomposition reactions. It was found that the thermal stability of the tested compounds depended on the type of substituent at the para position of the phenyl moiety or its absence. In both atmospheres used (air and helium), the thermal stability increased in relation to R as follows: -CH3 ≤ -OCH3 < -H < -OC2H5. In an inert atmosphere, it was higher by approx. 8-18 °C than in an oxidative atmosphere. The pyrolysis was connected with the emission of NH3, HCN, HNCO, HCONH2, HCHO, CO2, CO and H2O in the case of all the tested compounds, regardless of the substituent attached. In the case of the derivative containing the para-CH3 group, para-toluidine was an additional emitted aromatic product. In turn, emissions of aniline and alcohol (methanol or ethanol) for compounds with the para-OCH3 and para-OC2H5 groups, respectively, were confirmed. In oxidative conditions, the release of NH3, NO, HCN, HNCO, HCONH2, CO2, H2O and cyanogen (for all the compounds) and para-toluidine (for the para-CH3 derivative), aniline (for para-OCH3, para-OC2H5 and unsubstituted derivatives) and acetaldehyde (for the para-OC2H5 derivative) were clearly observed. No alcohol emissions were recorded for either compound containing the para-OCH3- or para-OC2H5-substitututed phenyl ring. These results confirmed that the pyrolysis and oxidative decomposition of the investigated annelated triazinylacetohydrazides occurred according to the radical mechanism. Moreover, in the presence of oxygen, the reactions of volatiles and residues with oxygen (oxidation) and the combustion process additionally proceeded.

Abstract
Penetration through the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is desirable in the case of potential pharmaceuticals acting on the central nervous system (CNS), but is undesirable in the case of drug candidates acting on the peripheral nervous system because it may cause CNS side effects. Therefore, modeling of the permeability across the blood-brain barrier (i.e., the logarithm of the brain to blood concentration ratio, log BB) of potential pharmaceuticals should be performed as early as possible in the preclinical phase of drug development. Biomimetic chromatography with immobilized artificial membrane (IAM) and the quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) methodology were successful in modeling the blood-brain barrier permeability of 126 drug candidates, whose experimentally-derived lipophilicity indices and computationally-derived molecular descriptors (such as molecular weight (MW), number of rotatable bonds (NRB), number of hydrogen bond donors (HBD), number of hydrogen bond acceptors (HBA), topological polar surface area (TPSA), and polarizability (α)) varied by class. The QSARs model established by multiple linear regression showed a positive effect of the lipophilicity (log kw, IAM) and molecular weight of the compound, and a negative effect of the number of hydrogen bond donors and acceptors, on the log BB values. The model has been cross-validated, and all statistics indicate that it is very good and has high predictive ability. The simplicity of the developed model, and its usefulness in screening studies of novel drug candidates that are able to cross the BBB by passive diffusion, are emphasized.

Abstract
In this article, for the first time, TG-DSC and TG-FTIR investigations of potential pharmaceutics, i.e., analgesic and anticancer active annelated triazinones (1-9) have been presented. The thermal behaviour of these molecules was established in oxidative and inert conditions. The solid-liquid phase transition for each compound (1-9) was documented by one sharp DSC peak confirming the high purity of each sample studied. All the molecules were characterised in terms of calorimetric changes and mass changes during their heating. They revealed high thermal stability in oxidative and inert conditions. The observed tendency in thermal stability changes in relation to a substituent present at the phenyl moiety was found to be similar in air and nitrogen. It was confirmed that annelated triazinones 1-9 were stable up to a temperature range of 241-296 °C in air, and their decomposition process proceeded in two stages under oxidative conditions. In addition, it was established that their thermal stability in air decreased in the following order of R at the phenyl moiety: 4-Cl > 3,4-Cl2 > H > 3-Cl > 4-CH3 > 2-CH3 > 3-CH3 > 2-Cl > 2-OCH3. The volatile decomposition products of the investigated molecules were proposed by comparing the FTIR spectra collected during their thermogravimetric analysis in nitrogen with the spectra from the database of reference compounds. None of annelated triazinones 1-9 underwent any polymorphic transformation during thermal studies. All the compounds proved to be safe for erythrocytes. In turn, molecules 3, 6, and 9 protected red blood cells from oxidative damage, and therefore may be helpful in the prevention of free radical-mediated diseases.

Abstract
The thermal decomposition path of synthetically and pharmacologically useful hybrid materials was analyzed in inert and oxidizing conditions for the first time and presented in this article. All the imidazoline/dimethyl succinate hybrids (1-5) were studied using the simultaneous thermogravimetry (TG) coupled with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and quadrupole mass spectrometry (QMS). It was found that the tested compounds were thermally stable up to 200-208 °C (inert conditions) and up to 191-197 °C (oxidizing conditions). In both furnace atmospheres, their decomposition paths were multi-step processes. At least two major stages (inert conditions) and three major stages (oxidizing conditions) of their decomposition were observed. The first decomposition stage occurred between T5% and 230-237 °C. It was connected with the breaking of one ester bond. This led to the emission of one methanol molecule and the formation of radicals capable of further radical reactions in both used atmospheres. At the second decomposition stage (Tmax2) between 230-237 °C and 370 °C (inert conditions), or at about 360 °C (oxidizing conditions), the cleavage of the second ester bond and N-N and C-C bonds led to the emission of CH3OH, HCN, N2, and CO2 and other radical fragments that reacted with each other to form clusters and large clusters. Heating the tested compounds to a temperature of about 490 °C resulted in the emission of NH3, HCN, HNCO, aromatic amines, carbonyl fragments, and the residue (Tmax2a) in both atmospheres. In oxidizing conditions, the oxidation of the formed residues (Tmax3) was related to the production of CO2, CO, and H2O. These studies confirmed the same radical decomposition mechanism of the tested compounds both in inert and oxidizing conditions. The antitumor activities and toxicities to normal cells of the imidazoline/dimethyl succinate hybrids were also evaluated. As a result, the two hybrid materials (3 and 5) proved to be the most selective in biological studies, and therefore, they should be utilized in further, more extended in vivo investigations.

Abstract
The experimental studies on the thermal properties and decomposition course of a novel class of potential anticancer drugs (1–5) containing in their heterobicyclic structures the asymmetrical triazine template were performed with the use of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and simultaneous thermogravimetry/differential scanning calorimetry (TG/DTG/DSC) coupled online with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and quadrupole mass spectrometry (QMS) in inert and oxidizing conditions. All the compounds were thermally characterized in detail for the first time in this article. The DSC studies proved that the melting points of the tested compounds depended on the position and type of the substituent at the phenyl moiety, whereas they did not depend on the furnace atmosphere. All the tested polynitrogenated heterocycles proved to be molecules with high thermal stability in both atmospheres, and most of them (1, 3–5) were more stable in oxidizing conditions, which indicated the formation of a more thermally stable form of the compounds when interacting with oxygen. The simultaneous TG/FTIR/QMS analyses confirmed that their pyrolysis process occurred in one main stage resulting in the emission of volatiles such as NH3, HNCO, HCN, CO, CO2, H2O, NO2, aromatic amine derivatives, alkenes (for compounds 1–5), and HCl (for the compound 5). On the other hand, the oxidative decomposition process was more complicated and proceeded in two main stages leading to the emission of NH3, CO2, CO, HCN, HNCO, H2O, some aromatics (for compounds 1–5), HCl (for compounds 3–5) as well as the additional volatiles such as N2, NO2, NH2OH, and (CN)2. The type of the formed volatiles indicated that the decomposition process of the studied heterocycles under the influence of heating was initiated by the radical mechanism. Their decomposition was related to the symmetric cleavage of C–N and C–C bonds (inert conditions) and additional reaction of the volatiles and residues with oxygen (oxidizing conditions).

Abstract
In this paper, we propose the first analytical procedure—using a screen-printed carbon electrode modified with carbon nanofibers (SPCE/CNFs)—for the detection and quantitative determination of an electroactive disubstituted fused triazinone, namely 4-Cl-PIMT, which is a promising anticancer drug candidate. The electrochemical performances of the sensor were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and square-wave adsorptive stripping voltammetry (SWAdSV). The presence of carbon nanofibers on the sensor surface caused a decrease in charge-transfer resistance and an increase in the active surface compared to the bare SPCE. Under the optimised experimental conditions, the proposed voltammetric procedure possesses a good linear response for the determination of 4-Cl-PIMT in the two linear ranges of 0.5–10 nM and 10–100 nM. The low limits of detection and quantification were calculated at 0.099 and 0.33 nM, respectively. In addition, the sensor displays high reproducibility and repeatability, as well as good selectivity. The selectivity was improved through the use of a flow system and a short accumulation time. The SWAdSV procedure with SPCE/CNFs was applied to determine 4-Cl-PIMT in human serum samples. The SWAdSV results were compared to those obtained by the ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization/single-quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-MS) method.

Abstract
(1) Background: The aim of the study was to test the hypothesis that the antioxidant status in the vitreous body of eyes, which had been vitrectomized due to rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) with or without proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), is higher than in eyes vitrectomized due to other retinal diseases. (2) Methods: four patient groups were analyzed: 22 eyes of patients with RRD without PVR, 27 eyes with RRD and PVR, 22 eyes with macular hole (MH) and 10 eyes with epiretinal membrane (ERM). Spectrophotometric methods were used to determine the total antioxidant status (TAS) values as well as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione reductase (GR) activities in the vitreous fluid samples. (3) Results: no significant differences in TAS values and antioxidant enzyme activities were observed among patient with RRD with and without PVR and with MH and ERM. The longer the duration of RRD leading to PVR and better postoperative visual acuity, the higher the TAS level. No significant differences were found between "macula on" and "macula off" subgroups within the RRD group and the RRD combined with PVR group. (4) Conclusions: The preliminary results do not support the thesis that the antioxidant status of vitrectomized eyes is different in patients with RRD with or without PVR in comparison to patients with MH and ERM. In patients with RRD, PVR presence and detached macula do not affect the values of TAS, SOD and GR in the vitreous fluid. The duration of the disease influences TAS in the vitreous in eyes with RRD complicated with PVR.

Abstract
The Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) methodology was used to predict biological properties, i.e., the blood–brain distribution (log BB), fraction unbounded in the brain (fu,brain), water-skin permeation (log Kp), binding to human plasma proteins (log Ka,HSA), and intestinal permeability (Caco-2), for three classes of fused azaisocytosine-containing congeners that were considered and tested as promising drug candidates. The compounds were characterized by lipophilic, structural, and electronic descriptors, i.e., chromatographic retention, topological polar surface area, polarizability, and molecular weight. Different reversed-phase liquid chromatography techniques were used to determine the chromatographic lipophilicity of the compounds that were tested, i.e., micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) with the ODS-2 column and polyoxyethylene lauryl ether (Brij 35) as the effluent component, an immobilized artificial membrane (IAM) chromatography with phosphatidylcholine column (IAM.PC.DD2) and chromatography with end-capped octadecylsilyl (ODS) column using aqueous solutions of acetonitrile as the mobile phases. Using multiple linear regression, we derived the statistically significant quantitative structure-activity relationships. All these QSAR equations were validated and were found to be very good. The investigations highlight the significance and possibilities of liquid chromatographic techniques with three different reversed-phase materials and QSARs methods in predicting the pharmacokinetic properties of our important organic compounds and reducing unethical animal testing.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are a group of chronic, incurable diseases of the digestive tract, the etiology of which remains unclear to this day. IBD result in significant repercussions on the quality of patients’ life. There is a continuous increase in the incidence and prevalence of IBD worldwide, and it is becoming a significant public health burden. Pharmaceuticals commonly used in IBD management, for example, mesalamine, sulfasalazine, corticosteroids, and others, expose patients to diverse, potentially detrimental side effects and frequently do not provide sufficient disease control. The chronic inflammation underlies the etiology of IBD and closely associates with oxidative/nitrosative stress and a vast generation of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species. Relative to this, several substances with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties are now intensively researched as possible adjunctive or independent treatment options in IBD. Representatives of several different groups, including natural and chemical compounds will be characterized in this dissertation.

Abstract
The main purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of anticancer active compounds (I–VIII) on zebrafish development in order to select the safest molecules. Larval mortality, embryo hatchability and malformations were end-points used to assess the acute toxicity among embryos and larvae from compounds-/pemetrexed-treated and control groups. LC50 and MNLC (maximal non-lethal concentration) were determined. Lipophilicity-dependent structure–toxicity relationships were established. The results clearly indicated that the majority of test molecules are safe for zebrafish individuals and simultaneously are less toxic than an anticancer agent – pemetrexed. The subsequent aim of this study was to elucidate the molecular mechanism of antiproliferative activity of the most selective compounds. Substantially increased activation of caspase-6 and -8 in cancerous cell lines confirmed the proapoptotic action of molecules examined. Considering the safety for zebrafish individuals, the title compounds as inducers of apoptosis are promising drug candidates in the preclinical phase of drug development.

Abstract
A carbon nanofibers modified screen-printed carbon sensor (SPCE/CNFs) was applied for the determination of a novel promising anticancer agent candidate (ethyl 8-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-4,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-3-carboxylate, EIMTC) using square-wave voltammetry (SWV). It is the first method for the quantitative determination of EIMTC. The modified screen-printed sensor exhibited excellent electrochemical activity in reducing EIMTC. The peak current of EIMTC was found to be linear in two concentration ranges of 2.0 × 10−9 – 2.0 × 10−8 mol L−1 and 2.0 × 10−8 – 2.0 × 10−7 mol L−1, with a detection limit of 5.0 × 10−10 mol L−1. The connection of flow-cell for the SPCE/CNFs with SWV detection allowed for the successful determination of EIMTC in human serum samples. Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS) acted as a comparative method in the serum samples analysis.

Abstract
The permeation of the blood-brain barrier is a very important consideration for new drug candidate molecules. In this research, the reversed-phase liquid chromatography with different columns (Purosphere RP-18e, IAM.PC.DD2 and Cosmosil Cholester) was used to predict the penetration of the blood-brain barrier by 65 newly-synthesized drug-like compounds. The linear free energy relationships (LFERs) model (log BB = c + eE + sS + aA + bB + vV) was established for a training set of 23 congeneric biologically active azole compounds with known experimental log BB (BB = Cblood/Cbrain) values (R2 = 0.9039). The reliability and predictive potency of the model were confirmed by leave-one-out cross validation as well as leave-50%-out cross validation. Multiple linear regression (MLR) was used to develop the quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) to predict the log BB values of compounds that were tested, taking into account the chromatographic lipophilicity (log kw), polarizability and topological polar surface area. The excellent statistics of the developed MLR equations (R2 > 0.8 for all columns) showed that it is possible to use the HPLC technique and retention data to produce reliable blood-brain barrier permeability models and to predict the log BB values of our pharmaceutically important molecules.

Abstract
Searching for new less toxic anticancer drug candidates is a big challenge from a medical point of view. The present investigation was aimed at describing two independent synthetic approaches based on isosteric replacements, spectroscopic characteristics, in vitro anticancer and ex vivo antihaemolytic activities of novel molecules (9-22) and correlations between their standardised lipophilicity indices, computed log Paverage values and pharmacokinetic descriptors. Two novel protocols for annelation of the triazinone template on hydrazinylideneimidazolidines (1-8) (showing a high reactivity towards electrophilic reagents, such as ethyl trifluoropyruvate and ethyl 3-methyl-2-oxobutyrate) were developed for the first time, giving rise to two original classes of highly conjugated azaisocytosine-containing molecules (9-16 and 17-22). Both syntheses proceeded under basic conditions to yield the most probable intermediates (e.g. hemiaminals and imines), which in refluxing two-component solvent mixtures or a suitable solvent cyclised through closing the triazinone ring on functionalised imidazolidines in both cases. All fused azaisocytosine-containing congeners were investigated with the purpose of preselecting possible drug candidates with a better selectivity that could be suitable for further more detailed drug development studies. The majority of test molecules revealed strong antiproliferative effects in most tumour cell cultures and they were more cytotoxic against tumour cells than anticancer drug - pemetrexed. These cytotoxicities may be associated with the activation of initiator and executioner caspases (confirmed for compound 12) which are inducers of apoptosis. Simultaneously, three bioisosteres bearing the trifluoromethyl moiety at the C-3 and the ortho substitution at the phenyl ring (10, 12 and 13) proved to be the most promising in terms of selectivity as they were less or equally toxic to normal cells as pemetrexed. It was shown that isosteric replacement of the ethyl group in antitumour active congeners by the trifluoromethyl or isopropyl group was favourable for the selectivity of the designed drug-like molecules. Almost all new compounds revealed the protective effects in an ex vivo model of oxidatively stressed rat erythrocytes (better or comparable than that of ascorbic acid/Trolox), proving that they are safe to red blood cells. The statistically significant and predictive QSAR equations were derived that describe relationships between some pharmacokinetic descriptors (such as log Ka, HSA, fu, brain, Caco-2, log Kp) and lipophilicity parameters of test molecules. Among all molecules with anticancer profile, the possible drug candidates seem to be 10, 12, 13, 19 and 21 which are the least toxic for normal cells, deprived of haemolytic effects on oxidatively-stressed red blood cells and have the optimum pharmacokinetic descriptors in terms of their lipophilicity parameters. Because of a high development potential they should be utilised in further more extended in vivo investigations aimed at developing novel less toxic anticancer agents.

Abstract
The present study was aimed at broadening the profile of toxicity and biological activity of promising fused azaisocytosine-containing congeners (I-VI) possessing medical applicability and important pharmacokinetic properties. For this purpose, the in vivo zebrafish test was applied for evaluating embryotoxic effects of test compounds, whereas the ex vivo model of oxidatively-stressed rat erythrocytes was developed for assessing their antihaemolytic activities. Additionally, the MTT-based assays suitable for assessing cytotoxic and antiviral activities of I-VI were employed. The influence of compounds I-VI on zebrafish embryos/larvae was carefully investigated in relation to lack or presence of various substituents at the phenyl moiety. The least embryotoxic proved to be the parent compound (I) and its para-methyl (II) and ortho-chloro (III) derivatives. Simultaneously, they revealed the minimum embryotoxic concentrations higher than that of aciclovir, what makes them safer than this pharmaceutic. Moreover, most of test compounds showed protective effects (better or comparable to that of ascorbic acid) on oxidatively-stressed erythrocytes. All the investigated compounds were effective at inhibiting the growth of human solid tumours of pharynx (FaDu) and tongue (SCC-25). The majority of molecules showed good selectivity indices. The most selective proved to be II showing in normal Vero cells over a 5-fold and an almost 3-fold decreased cytotoxicity relative to that in tumour SCC-25 and FaDu cells, respectively. Additionally, a 3,4-dichloro derivative (VI) was shown to possess concentration-dependent inhibitory effects on the replication of Herpes simplex virus type 1 and simultaneously at active concentrations was found to be nontoxic for normal Vero cells.

Abstract
Biologically and chemically useful hydrazinoimidazolines were evaluated as antioxidant and antihaemolytic agents. 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH•), galvinoxyl radical (GOR), nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) scavenging assays, ferric ions reducing power assay, and ex vivo model of rat erythrocytes exposed to 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionamidine)dihydrochloride (AAPH) or H2O2 were used. The most potent DPPH• scavengers proved to be hydrazinoimidazolines 3, 2, and 4, revealing excellent antiradical effects - superior or comparable to that of all antioxidant standards used. Moreover, these molecules showed strong NO neutralising potencies - better to that of ascorbic acid (AA) (3), 6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid (Trolox) (3 and 2), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) (3 and 2), and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) (3, 2, and 4). Compound 4 was also effective in GOR scavenging. The excellent scavenger of GOR, NO, and H2O2 proved to be structure 5, with the potency superior or comparable to the majority of antioxidant standards used. In turn, compound 9 was effective in H2O2 and GOR neutralisation. All hydrazinoimidazolines revealed the reducing power that is higher than BHT. Moreover, the protective effects of most test compounds on oxidatively stressed erythrocytes were observed. Some structure-activity relationships were disclosed. A significance of the primary hydrazino group on antioxidant effects was confirmed. The most likely DPPH• and GOR scavenging mechanisms for test compounds were propound. Among all the investigated molecules, hydrazinoimidazolines 5, 3, 2, 4, and 9, due to their excellent or good antiradical activities, can represent promising antioxidant candidates with prospective utility for prevention of diseases related to reactive oxygen/nitrogen species.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Two important classes of hydrazide-containing fused azaisocytosines were evaluated as possible antioxidants and characterised by UV spectroscopy. METHODS 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydazyl (DPPH), nitric oxide (NO), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) scavenging potencies and reducing power of molecules were evaluated. RESULTS The strongest DPPH scavengers were found to be 9, showing the potency superior to that of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), propyl gallate (PG) and 6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid (Trolox) and comparable to that of ascorbic acid (AA), and 6, revealing the antioxidant potency superior to that of BHA, BHT, PG and Trolox. In turn, 3 and 9 were the most promising NO scavengers, exhibiting the potency superior to that of BHA, BHT (3 and 9) and AA (3). The most potent H2O2 scavengers proved to be 10 and 9 showing similar or even better neutralising potency than that of Trolox, BHT and BHA. Simultaneously, the majority of hydrazides revealed higher ferric reducing abilities than that of AA and BHT. Some structure-activity relationships were explored. A possible mechanism for the DPPH radical scavenging ability of hydrazide-containing molecules was proposed. DISCUSSION Hydrazides 3, 6 and 9 with an antioxidant potential better or comparable to that of the well-known antioxidants are proposed as new antioxidant candidates.

Abstract
The determination of ethyl [4-oxo-8-(3-chlorophenyl)-4,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-3-yl]acetate (ETTA), a new anticancer prodrug, using adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV) was described for the first time. This method is based on adsorptive/reductive behaviour of ETTA at an in situ plated bismuth film electrode (BiFE) as a sensor. A number of experimental variables (e.g., a composition and pH of the supporting electrolyte, the conditions of bismuth film deposition, an accumulation potential and time, the scan rate, etc.) were thoroughly studied in order to achieve a high sensitivity. Experimental results under optimized conditions revealed an excellent linear correlation between the monitored voltammetric peak current and the ETTA concentration in the range of 2-50μgL-1 following an accumulation time of 300s. The limit of detection (LOD) for ETTA following 300s of an accumulation time was 0.4μgL-1. The proposed facile, sensitive and inexpensive method was successfully applied to the determination of ETTA in serum. The investigated prodrug was extracted from serum using SPE method.

Abstract
The chromatographic behaviour and significant lipophilicity/hydrophobicity indices (log k(w), S, φ(0)) are presented for 21 biologically active fused 1,2,4-triazinones based on the linear relationship: log k = log k(w)-Sφ established for the retention on LC-18 HPLC column, using as mobile phases mixtures of three organic modifiers with water. The effect of these mobile phase modifiers on the chromatographic behaviour of solutes was established and the organic modifier of choice is suggested. The complex correlation of slopes versus intercepts obtained for acetonitrile, contrary to linear ones obtained for methanol and dioxane are disclosed. The observed difference in retention mechanism for acetonitrile compared to methanol and dioxane is explained by intermolecular interactions encoded in lipophilicity. Linear correlations with statistically significant levels between log kw values determined from three different chromatographic systems were obtained. The relationships between log k(w) constants (derived from the linear model for methanol-water mobile phases) and predicted log P and log S values by the use of various computational methods were investigated and these were established with high correlation coefficients. The predicted log P values plotted against φ(0 (MeOH)) indices showed the best fit. Principal component analysis was used to compare various lipophilicity parameters of the solutes and their in silico biological descriptors relevant to optimal pharmacokinetics profile. The similarities and dissimilarities between all the variables and molecular structures of solutes are presented. Statistically significant correlations were found between the chromatographic lipophilicity indices and the calculated pharmacokinetic descriptors: fraction unbound in brain (f(u, brain)), oral bioavailability (%F), permeability and intestinal absorption in jejunum (Caco-2), skin permeation (log K(p)) and blood/brain concentration (log BB).

Abstract
Reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) with different stationary phases, i.e., octadecylsilyl, immobilized artificial membrane and immobilized cholesterol, was used to study lipophilicity of 56 newly-designed 7,8-dihydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-4(6H)-ones and 2,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-3,4-diones with potential anti-proliferative, anti-metastatic and analgesic activities. Extrapolated retention parameters that correspond to pure buffer as the mobile phase, i.e., logkw values are used as chromatographic lipophilicities. The lipophilic properties of compounds also are characterized by computed logP values and basic pharmacokinetic descriptors calculated in silico with the use of ACD/Percepta software according to Abraham's linear solvation energy relationship. Chromatographic and partitioning parameters are compared with biological descriptors using principal component analysis (PCA), and similarities and dissimilarities between variables and compounds are described. Highly significant, predictive relationships between biological descriptors and chromatographic parameters are obtained. Reversed parabolic relationships, which have very good statistical quality between various biological descriptors, i.e., logKsc, logKp, logBB, and logKhsa, and the logkw values, indicate the advantages of a cholesterol column in comparison with immobilized artificial membrane and octadecylsilyl stationary phase.

Abstract
Synthesis, structure elucidation and anticancer activities of novel fused 1,2,4-triazine aryl derivatives containing the ethoxycarbonyl (6-10) and carbohydrazide formations (11-15) are presented. Molecular structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, EI-MS spectra and elemental analyses. Antitumour activities in vitro for heterobicyclic hydrazides of the type 11-14 were evaluated by BrdU method for human LS180, SiHa and T47D carcinoma cells. Amongst them, hydrazide 14 has exhibited remarkable inhibitory effect against SiHa and LS180 tumour cells, and simultaneously was found to be non-toxic towards the human normal cell line-HSF cells. Furthermore, the pulse field gel electrophoresis experiment was performed for characterizing DNA-cleaving activity of heterobicycle 14. The DNA fragments of 2500, 2000 and 500 kilobase pairs (kbp) were commonly detected in the cancer cell lines (SiHa, LS180 and T47D) treated with compound 14. DNA fragmentation pattern, since three types of fragments induced by the tested hydrazide of the type 14 were detected, suggesting a way of interaction with DNA. It is worth pointing out, that DNA strand breaks were also produced in human breast cancer (T47D) cells, a cell line where the induction of DNA fragmentation is very difficult. Moreover, the statistically significant apoptotic activity in T47D human breast cancer cells for the tested heterobicycle 14 was proved using the annexin V-binding assay. The antiproliferative properties in vitro for compounds 6-14 were evaluated by MTT method for human leukaemic Jurkat cells. Significant viability decreases in Jurkat cells treated with different concentrations of compounds 10 and 11 were observed, suggesting that these derivatives have antiproliferative activities. Their acute toxicities were established. For these compounds the influence on the central nervous system of mice in behavioural tests was examined. Molecular structure for free base of the intermediate 4 was confirmed by (1)H-(1)H COSY, HMBC and HMQC correlations.

Abstract
The in vitro biological activities of novel derivatives of methyl and ethyl 2-(4-oxo-8-aryl-2H-3,4,6,7-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-3-yl)acetates (3a, 3d-j) have been evaluated and are reported. The final heterobicycles (3a-j) were obtained from monocyclic 1-aryl-2-hydrazonoimidazolidines (2a-f) by addition and cyclization reaction with fumaric acid esters. In particular, compounds 3d and 3e were found to exhibit comparable antibacterial potencies in vitro as that of ampicillin. Heterobicycles of the 3e, 3g and 3j type were screened for their antiviral activities against the selected viruses' DNA (human adenovirus type 5-Ad-5) and RNA (human enterovirus-Echo-9). Simultaneously, their cytotoxicities towards HEK-293 and GMK cells were established. In particular, heterobicycle 3j, completely non-toxic for GMK cells, was found to exhibit virucidal properties against Echo-9 virus justifying its further investigation as the potential antiviral agent.

Abstract
3-Unsubstituted and 3-substituted-7-aryl-5H-6,7-dihydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazoles (1-14) were designed and obtained from biologically active 1-aryl-2-hydrazonoimidazolidines by cyclocondensation reaction with triethyl orthoformates (1-4), phenoxyacetic acid derivatives (5-13) and carbon disulfide (14), respectively. Their chemical structures were confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, MS spectra and elemental analysis. In the high performance liquid chromatographic series of experiments, fourteen synthesized compounds (1-14) were chromatographed on octadecyl silica adsorbent and their lipophilicity parameter (logk(W)) was determined using various aqueous systems: mixture of water and organic modifiers (methanol - MeOH, acetonitrile - MeCN or dioxane - DX). Compounds 7 and 12 were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against three cancer cell lines: human Caucasian colon adenocarcinoma cell line - LS180 (ECACC 87021202), human uterus carcinoma cell line - SiHa (ECACC 85060701) and human breast carcinoma cell line - T47D (ECACC 85102201). Compound 12 was found to be the most effective in vitro against human colon adenocarcinoma cell line (LS180). Moreover, the distinctly marked lower cytotoxicity of compounds 7 and 12 against the normal cell line - human skin fibroblasts (HSF) and almost several-fold higher against the examined cancer cell lines was ascertained. The cytotoxic effect of imidazotriazole 7 was noticed on DNA structure of breast cancer cell line (T47D) by using the comet assay. Compound 7 in concentration of 29.3 microM was found to possess efficiency for DNA strand breakage. In particular, this led to cutting of the DNA strands and formation of small fragments of DNA - two higher and one lighter in comparison with control DNA. Moreover, significant viability decreases in the human leukaemic RPMI 8226 cells treated with different concentrations of imidazotriazoles 8-12 were observed, suggesting their antiproliferative properties. Besides, three tested compounds (9, 13, 14) revealed significant antimicrobial activities with MIC values in the range of 30.9-44.0 microM. Compound 13 showed superior antibacterial activity to ampicillin and chloramphenicol in vitro, whereas 14 displayed superior antifungal activity to miconazole.

Abstract
The series of 8-aryl-2,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-3,4-diones (11-20) and 8-aryl-4-imino-2,3,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-3(6H)-ones (21-25) were designed and their in vitro cytotoxic activities against human LS180, HeLa, T47D, A549 and RPMI 8226 carcinoma cells are presented. In the crystalline state molecule 12 exists as the predominant tautomeric 3-oxo form, whereas the second possible 3-hydroxy tautomer is not observed. Compound 19 revealed a strong affection to LS180 cancer cells at lower tested concentration (37.9 microM) and simultaneously was found to be non-toxic towards the normal cell line investigated--GMK cells. Furthermore, this compound was proved to possess the efficiency for DNA strand breakage of the examined cancer cell lines. However, imidazotriazin-3,4-dione 20 was able to cause significant viability decreases in human RPMI 8226 peripheral blood myeloma cells. Compound 22 has exhibited remarkable inhibitory effects against LS180 and A549 carcinoma cells, whereas 24 revealed the highest growth inhibition against A549 cell line. Simultaneously, at lower tested concentration these compounds were proved to be completely non-toxic for GMK cells. Moreover, cytotoxic and antibacterial properties of starting, tautomeric 1-aryl-2-hydrazonoimidazolidines (1-6 and 8-9) are presented. Six of them (1-2, 4-6 and 9) proved active as antimicrobials. All these compounds revealed MIC values in the range of 15.0-78.6 microM. Their activities were compared to those of ampicillin and chloramphenicol.

Abstract
The 1-aryl-2-hydrazinoimidazolines (2a-h) were directly obtained from appropriate 1-aryl-2-methylthioimidazolines (1a-h) by condensation reaction with hydrazine hydrate. Antimicrobial activities of two 1-aryl-2-hydrazinoimidazolines (2b and 2e) are presented. Their chemical structures were confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR, EI-MS and elemental analysis. The susceptibility of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains, mould and yeast-like fungi strains to synthesized compounds and the MIC values against two reference strains of bacteria were determined. The strongest antibacterial activity for compound 2b in relation to reference Gram-negative Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 bacterial strain with minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 3.91micro g mL(-1) was found. Compound 2b showed superior activity (MIC) to ampicillin and comparable to chloramphenicol. A novel compound 2e was found to be effective against E. coli ATCC 25922 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 at concentrations of 7.81micro g mL(-1) and 15.62micro g mL(-1), respectively. Compound 2e revealed antibacterial activity against E. coli ATCC 25922, superior to ampicillin and inferior to chloramphenicol. Against S. aureus ATCC 25923 strain tested, compound 2e demonstrated MIC value inferior to ampicillin and chloramphenicol. Moreover, the synthesis, crystal structure and antiproliferative activity of novel derivatives of methyl and ethyl 2-(4-oxo-8-aryl-2H-3,4,6,7-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-3-yl)acetates (3a-f and 3g-j) are presented. These compounds were obtained from 1-aryl-2-hydrazinoimidazolines (2a-f) by the addition and cyclization reactions with fumaric acid esters. Molecular structures of these compounds were confirmed by elemental analysis, IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, EI-MS and by X-ray crystallography (for 3g). The tested imidazotriazines 3e, 3i and 3j exhibited anticancer activities towards the following cancer cells: LS180 (ECACC 87021202, human Caucasian colon adenocarcinoma cells), SiHa (ECACC 85060701, uterus cancer cells), and T47D (ECACC 85102201, human breast carcinoma cells). Compounds 3i and 3j having comparable GI values (above 50%) towards uterus cancer cell line (SiHa) at both examined concentrations (10micro g mL(-1) and 50micro g mL(-1)) were found to be the most effective against this cancer cell line; their GI factors were 53%, 51% and 62%, 55%, respectively, in both examined concentrations (10micro g mL(-1) and 50micro g mL(-1)). Furthermore, the distinctly marked lower cytotoxicity of tested imidazotriazines 3i and 3j against normal cell lines (HSF, human skin fibroblast cells and Vero African Green Monkey Kidney cells, GMK clone) and almost 2-times higher against the majority of cancer cell lines was confirmed.

Abstract
Synthesis and anticancer activity of ethyl 1-(4-oxo-8-aryl-4,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-3-yl)formates (7-12) are presented. The title compounds were obtained by two independent synthesis methods from 1-aryl-2-hydrazono-imidazolidines (1-aryl-2-hydrazino-imidazolines) (1-6) by cyclocondensation reaction with diethyl 2-(hydroxyimino)malonate (A) and diethyl 2-oxomalonate (B). Molecular structure of synthesized compounds was confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR, EI-MS spectra, elemental analysis and X-ray crystallography for 12. Compounds 10 and 11 exhibited anticancer activity towards following cancer cells: LS180 (ECACC 87021202, human Caucasian colon adenocarcinoma cells), SiHa (ECACC 85060701, uterus cancer cells), T47D (ECACC 85102201, human breast carcinoma cells). Compound 10 was found to be the most active against SiHa cancer line; its GI was 41 and 52%, respectively in both examined concentrations (10 and 50 microg ml(-1)), whereas compound 11 had the highest potential to reduce the growth of LS180 and SiHa cancer lines, especially in a higher dose (50 microg ml(-1)). Moreover, the distinctly marked lower cytotoxicity of tested compounds against normal cell lines (HSF, human skin fibroblast cells and Vero African Green Monkey Kidney cells, GMK clone) and almost two-times higher against cancer cell lines was confirmed. Also antibacterial activity of starting 1-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-hydrazonoimidazolidine hydroiodide (4) is presented. Molecular structure of 4 was confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, EI-MS spectra, elemental analysis and (1)H-(1)H COSY, HMBC and HMQC correlations. The marked antibacterial activity for this compound in relation to Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 and Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 with equal minimal inhibitory concentration values of 15.62 and 15.62 microg ml(-1) was found.

Abstract
The electron ionization mass spectra of the title compounds (1: a R = H, b 2-CH(3), c 4-CH(3), d 2,3-diMe, e 2-OCH(3), f 4-OCH(3), g 2-Cl, h 3-Cl, i 4-Cl, j 3,4-diCl) were recorded at 70 eV to determine the effects of substituents and the possible keto-enol tautomerism. The compounds showed several common fragment ions but also fragment ions which divided them into three classes, namely 1a-1d (parent compound and Me-substituted derivatives), 1e and 1f (MeO-substituted derivatives), and 1g-1j (Cl-substituted derivatives). The presence of the HOCN(+.) ion as well as the exponential dependence of its total ion current in the case of p- and also 3-Cl-substituted compounds (1a, c, f, h-j) on the Hammett sigma constants and the loss of CHO or one or two HOCN moieties can be somewhat easier explained by the presence of the enol form but as a whole the results support the predominance of the keto form, in parallel to the situation in solution.

Abstract
Synthesis and pharmacological activity of 8-aryl-3,4-dioxo-2H,8H-6,7-dihydroimidazo[2,1-c] [1,2,4]triazines (A) are presented. The title compounds were obtained from 1-aryl-2-hydrazinoimidazolines (1) by cyclization reaction with ethyl oxalate (2). They were tested for pharmacological activity in behavioral animal tests (A1, A3, A5, A6, A8, A9). With relatively low acute toxicity (LD50 in range from 1100 to over 2000 mg kg(-1), intraperitoneally, i.p.), some of them exhibited significant antinociceptive activity as the result of the 'writhing' test indicated. Especially strong antinociception for compound A8 and significant for A6 was observed in doses of 12.5-200 mg (0.00625-0.1 LD50) and 37.5-150 mg (0.025-0.1 LD50), respectively. Reversion of the antinociception for A1 and A8 produced in the 'writhing' test by 5 mg kg(-1) dose of naloxon can suggest an opioid-like mechanism of their analgesic activity. Additionally, compound A9 reduced number of the "head twitch" episodes after 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) administration with no antinociceptive effect at all and compound A3 showed significant protection in the pentylentetrazol-induced seizure model. Differences observed in the activity spectrum between A8 and A9 derivatives can be explained on the base of difference in the amido-imido tautomeric equilibrium observed between these two compounds.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to exclude the potential antimicrobial activity of certain analgesic active imidazo[2,1-c]triazines. These compounds contain in their chemical structure potential pharmacophore formations and features similar to those present in morphine - like analgesics and opioid receptor agonists containing no basic nitrogen atom. These compounds showed significant antinociceptive activity on the central nervous system of the tested animals, correlated with very low toxicity value (LD50 value of above 2000 mg kg(-1) b.w. via i. p.). Microbiological tests were conducted on 106 strains of bacteria, 6 strains of yeast-like fungi and 3 strains of moulds. The examined imidazo[2,1-c]triazines in concentrations of 100 microg ml(-1) and 200 microg ml(-1) had no influence on the growth of the microorganisms tested. Lack of this influence can be profitable in the case of analgesic active compounds.

Abstract
1,2,4-Triazole is the structural element of many drugs that have different pharmacological spectrum of activity. Besides, from the literature data it follows that 1,2,4-triazoles and its fused systems show antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory activities. The obtained compounds were tested for their potential antimicrobial activity. Microbiological tests conducted on 106 strains of bacteria, 6 strains of yeast-like fungi and 3 strains of moulds have shown that all the tested compounds in the examined concentrations (100 microg ml(-1) and 200 microg ml(-1)) had no influence on the growth of the tested bacteria and moulds. It has been found that among variously substituted derivatives of imidazotriazole system compound V significantly inhibited the growth of 6 strains of Candida albicans in the examined concentrations. Its chemical structure was similar to novel antifungal agents described in the literature.

Abstract
The oxazolidinones are a new class of broad spectrum chemotherapeutics of antibiotic properties. These drugs have good activity against Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria. Oxazolidinones possess an unique mechanism of inhibitory bacterial protein biosynthesis. These compounds inhibit the formation of N-formylmethionyl-tRNA, which is a requisite of beginning translation process. Linezolid, the first oxazolidinone to be approved for the clinical treatment of Gram-positive bacterial infections, displays a wide spectrum of in vitro activity against many important pathogens, including for instance methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant enterococci and penicillin-resistant pneumococci. Linezolid is a pararental drug that also possesses near-complete oral bioavailability and a favourable pharmacokinetic profile. In clinical trials involving hospitalised patients with skin and soft tissue infections oxazolidinones appeared to be effective treatment option, comparable in efficacy to vancomycin.

Abstract
Imidazoline ring system is the structural element of many drugs which have different pharmacological spectrum of activity as ligands of the imidazoline receptor. Besides, from the literature data it follows that depending on the type of substituent certain derivatives of imidazoline may also show antimicrobial properties. The obtained compounds were tested for their potential antimicrobial activity. Microbiological tests conducted on 106 strains of bacteria, 6 strains of yeast-like fungi and 3 strains of moulds have shown that all the tested compounds in the examined concentrations (100 mg ml(-1) and 200 mg ml(-1)) had no influence on the growth of tested bacteria, yeast-like fungi and moulds.
