Dioxo-2,5 pipérazines. 1. La synthèse des carboxythiazolo dioxo-2,5 pipérazines

A new and general synthesis of 2,5-dioxopiperazine condensed with the thiazolidine ring is described. The synthesis involves the use of N-ethoxy carbonyl-2-ethoxy-1-2-dihydroquinoleine (EEDQ) as activating agent to form the 2,5-diketopiperazine (EEDQ) as activating agent to form the 2,5-diketopiperazine ring. By this method 9-carbobutoxy-7,7-dimethyl-2,5-dioxo-8-this-1,4-diazabicyclo[4.3.0] nonane (6) and 9-carboxy-8,8 dimethyl-2,5-dioxo-7-thia-1,4-diazabicy clo [4.3.0] nonane (8) were obtained, with near quantitative yield, from 4-carboxy-2-carbobutoxy-5,5 dimethylthiazolidine (4). The former was transformed into acid 7 by hydrolysis with barium bydroxyde and the latter was esterified with diazornethane thus producing a methylester 9. The use of the ethy lester of N-(2-cabobutoxy-4-carboxy-5,5-dimethyl-thiazolidine)glycine (10) for synthesis of 6 was also successful. The spectromethric data were interpreted and confirm the proposed structure of the new compounds.     

A new diketopiperazine derivative from a deep sea-derived Streptomyces sp. SCSIO 04496

A new diketopiperazine (DKP) derivative, (6R,3Z)-3-benzylidene-6-isobutyl-1-methyl piperazine-2,5-dione (1), as well as five known DKPs 2–6 was isolated from a deep sea-derived Streptomyces sp. SCSIO 04496. The structure of 1 was elucidated using a combination of 1D and 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS and chiral-phase HPLC techniques.

Three new 2,5-diketopiperazines from the fish intestinal Streptomyces sp. MNU FJ-36

The gut actinobacteria of marine-inhabited fish is one of the most important reservoirs of novel natural products. Currently, the Streptomyces sp. MNU FJ-36 was isolated from the intestinal fabric of Katsuwonus sp. and determined by 16S rRNA analysis. From the cultures of the S. sp. MNU FJ-36, three new 2,5-diketopiperazines (2,5-DKPs) were discovered and identified as 3-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl)-6-isobutyl-2,5-diketopiperazine (1), 3-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethyl)-6-isobutyl-2,5-diketopiperazine (2) and 3-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethyl)-6-isopropyl-2,5-diketopiperazine (3). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data analysis. All the compounds were also evaluated for their inhibitory activity against P388, A-549 and HCT-116 cell lines with the MTT assay.     

Isolation and Stucture Elucidation of Diterpenes from Wedelia prostrata and Their Cytotoxicity Activities

Synthesis, structure and assessment of the cytotoxic properties of 2,5-dimethylazaferrocenyl phosphonates

The reaction of lithiated 2,5-dimethylazaferrocene 1 with diethyl chlorophosphate proceeds to give lateral and ring phosphonate products. The products 2 and 3 were characterized by spectroscopic (1H, 31P{1H} NMR, MS, IR) methods and 3 was treated with W(CO)5(thf) to form a crystalline W(CO)5-complex 4 which was characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The new 2,5-dimethylazaferrocenyl phosphonates were transformed into the corresponding N-methyl iodide salts 5 and 6 in quantitative yields. Both salts are water soluble and stable compounds and an analysis of their cytotoxic and anti-proliferative activity was carried out. Compound 6 possesses anti-metabolic activity which exhibited some preference towards the cancerous HeLa cell line over the non-cancerous NIH 3T3 cell line. These new compounds are the first examples of azaferrrocene (i.e. non-ferrocene) derivatives featuring biologically important phosphonate groups. The preliminary studies into cytotoxic activity indicates that as with ferrocene, azaferrocene can also be regarded as a potential source for organometallic anticancer agents, featuring the iron centre in the +2 oxidation state rather than the often utilized ferrocenium +3 species.     

Synthesis,Anticonvulsant, and Antinociceptive Activity of New 3-(2-Chlorophenyl)- and 3-(3-Chlorophenyl)-2,5-dioxo-pyrrolidin-1-yl-acetamides

The new series of 3-(2-chlorophenyl)- and 3-(3-chlorophenyl)-pyrrolidine-2,5-dione-acetamide derivatives as potential anticonvulsant and analgesic agents was synthesized. The compounds obtained were evaluated in the following acute models of epilepsy: maximal electroshock (MES), psychomotor (6 Hz, 32 mA), and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) seizure tests. The most active substance-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-{2-[4-(4-fluorophenyl)piperazin-1-yl]-2-oxoethyl}-pyrrolidine-2,5-dione (6) showed more beneficial ED₅₀ and protective index values than the reference drug—valproic acid (68.30 mg/kg vs. 252.74 mg/kg in the MES test and 28.20 mg/kg vs. 130.64 mg/kg in the 6 Hz (32 mA) test, respectively). Since anticonvulsant drugs are often effective in neuropathic pain management, the antinociceptive activity for two the promising compounds—namely, 6 and 19—was also investigated in the formalin model of tonic pain. Additionally, for the aforementioned compounds, the affinity for the voltage-gated sodium and calcium channels, as well as GABA_A and TRPV1 receptors, was determined. As a result, the most probable molecular mechanism of action for the most active compound 6 relies on interaction with neuronal voltage-sensitive sodium (site 2) and L-type calcium channels. Compounds 6 and 19 were also tested for their neurotoxic and hepatotoxic properties and showed no significant cytotoxic effect.

Those compounds showed no cytotoxic effects against human cancer cell lines (MDA-231 and MCF-7) by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) method.     

Determination of characteristic odorants from Harmonia axyridis beetles using in vivo solid-phase microextraction and multidimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-olfactometry

Homeowners, small fruit growers, and wine makers are concerned with noxious compounds released by multicolored Asian ladybird beetles (Harmonia axyridis, Coleoptera: Coccinellidae). A new method based on headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) coupled with multidimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-olfactometry (MDGC-MS-O) system was developed for extraction, isolation and simultaneous identification of compounds responsible for the characteristic odor of live H. axyridis. Four methoxypyrazines (MPs) were identified in headspace volatiles of live H. axyridis as those responsible for the characteristic odor: 2,5-dimethyl-3-methoxypyrazine (DMMP), 2-isopropyl-3-methoxypyrazine (IPMP), 2-sec-butyl-3-methoxypyrazine (SBMP), and 2-isobutyl-3-methoxypyrazine (IBMP). To the best of our knowledge this is the first report of H. axyridis releasing DMMP and the first report of this compound being a component of the H. axyridis characteristic odor. Besides the MPs, 34 additional compounds were also identified. Quantification of three MPs (IPMP, SBMP and IBMP) emitted from live H. axyridis were performed using external calibration with HS-SPME and direct injections. A linear relationship (R(2)>0.9951 for all 3 MPs) between MS response and concentration of a standard was observed over a concentration range from 0.1 ng L(-1) to 0.05 microg L(-1) for HS-SPME-GC-MS. The method detection limits (MDL) based on multidimensional GC-MS with narrow heart-cut approach for three MPs were estimated to be between 0.020 and 0.022 ng L(-1). This represents a 38.9-52.4% improvement in sensitivity compared to GC-MS with full heart-cut method. This methodology is applicable for in vivo determination of odor-causing chemicals associated with emissions of volatiles from insects.
