Novel synthetic acridine-based derivatives as topoisomerase Ⅰ inhibitors

Novel DNA binding agents against topoisomerases are needed for effective treatment of cancers. A series of new acridine-based derivatives 7a–7d were synthesized and their antiproliferative activity against K562 and HepG-2 cell lines were evaluated. Compound 7c with pyridin-2-yl-methanamino group substituted at the C9 position of acridine showed good antitumor activity against both cell lines. The DNA-binding affinity of compound 7c was evaluated by UV–vis absorption spectra and fluorescence emission spectra. DNA topoisomerase I mediated relaxation of plasmid pBR322 DNA was also tested. Our results suggested that compound 7c with good antitumor activity and topoisomerase I inhibition activity can be developed as a prime candidate for further chemical optimization.     

Spontaneous cyclization of (acridin-9-ylmethyl)thioureas to spiro [dihydroacridine-9′(10′H),5-imidazolidine]-2-thiones,a novel type of acridine spirocycles

Novel acridine spirocompounds, spiro[dihydroacridine-9′(10′H),5-imidazolidine]-2-thiones have been prepared by the spontaneous cyclization of 1-substituted 3-(acridin-9-ylmethyl)thioureas, which were obtained from 1-(acridin-9-yl)methanamine, N-(acridin-9-ylmethyl)propan-1-amine, and N-(acridin-9-ylmethyl)benzylamine and alkyl/aryl isothiocyanates, as continuation of our previous studies on new acridine spirocycles. Imidazolidine-2-thiones thus obtained were subsequently transformed with mesitylnitrile oxide to imidazolidine-2-one analogues, some of which partly reopened to the corresponding (acridin-9-ylmethyl)ureas. An unusual spirocyclization via a CH carbanion instead of the N-1 nitrogen has been found for 3-(acridin-9-ylmethyl)-1-(acridin-9-yl)thioureas possessing two acridine rings. Structural modifications in positions 1, 3, and 4 of the spiro ring together with ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁵N NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography have been employed to rationalize a general propensity of various 9-substituted acridines to undergo easy spirocyclization.

Experimental and theoretical studies of acridine orange as corrosion inhibitor for copper protection in acidic media

The corrosion process commonly limits the use of copper in practical applications. The use of corrosion inhibitors is one of the effective methods to reduce the corrosion rate of copper. In this research, the inhibition effect of acridine orange (3,6-bis(dimethylamine)acridine) (AcO) for the protection of copper in 0.5 ?M ?H₂SO₄ solution was studied. For this aim, the change of open circuit potential with exposure time (E_ocp-t), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), linear polarization resistance (LPR), anodic and cathodic potentiodynamic polarization measurements (PP) and chronoamperometry (CA) techniques were used. Some quantum chemical parameters (E_HOMO, E_LUMO and dipole moment) were calculated and discussed. The AcO film formed over the copper surface was examined by SEM, EDX, AFM and contact angle measurements. The electrochemical data showed that AcO is an effective corrosion inhibitor even at low concentrations (ranging between 99.1% and %99.4 ?at concentrations from 0.01 ?mM to 1 ?mM). The corrosion rate of copper decreases in the presence of the inhibitor by reducing both anodic and cathodic rates, which is depended on its concentration. This compound behaves as mixed-type corrosion inhibitors with predominantly cathodic type. Its adsorption on the copper surface obeys Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The value of adsorption equilibrium constant (K_ads) and the standard free energy of adsorption were ΔG_ads 1.298 x 10³ ?M^?1 and -27.71 ?kJ/mol in the case of 0.5 ?M ?H₂SO₄ solution containing 1.0 ?mM AcO, which shows the adsorption is high and spontaneous. The adsorbed inhibitor film over the metal increase contact angle of the surface, which suggests the more hydrophobic properties of the surface are increasing coming from the orientation of hydrophobic sites to the electrolyte. The zero charge potential (E_pzc) studies showed that the surface charge of the metal is positive in the corrosive media containing the inhibitor. Quantum chemical calculations showed that the binding of inhibitor molecules to the metal surface takes place through N atoms of the inhibitor.     

Revisiting magnetic field effects in homogeneous medium and bio-mimicking environments with emphasis on acridine derivatives

A weak external magnetic field, very close to the hyperfine interactions of the system, can acts as a tool to monitor spin dynamics and assess distance between the components of the spin-correlated transient radical pair or radical ion pair (RIP). The present review focuses on the magnetic field effect (MFE) on the photo-induced electron-transfer (PET) reactions among acridine derivatives and classical as well as biological electron acceptor or donor moieties, which produce spin-correlated RIPs, in homogeneous solvents, heterogeneous micellar media and in biological nanocavities of proteins. Although a confined medium is preferred to observe prominent MFE, yet unanticipated MFE on PET between acridine derivatives [Acridone (AD) and Acridine Yellow (AY)] and classical electron donors is obtained even in homogeneous medium when it consists of impurities like water molecules. In a comparative study of interaction of another acridine derivative, Proflavin (PF⁺) with two electron donors which are amines of aromatic nature, MFE on PET reveal that the bulk and the structure of the electron donor govern the mechanism as well as the spin dynamics of PET. While studying interaction of PF⁺ with a different amine which is aliphatic in nature, MFE on PET implies that it is the nature of the solvent matrix which determines the spin dynamics of PET. The cause of discrepancy in the experimental and calculated values of B_1/2 for 9-amino acridine – methyl viologen system has been delineated. Apart from micellar medium, prominent MFE on PET is also observed while studying the interaction of PF⁺, AY and AD with tryptophan residues present in the nanocavities of serum albumins since the inter-radical distance within primary geminate RIP is enough to make exchange interaction negligible.     

Synthesis of Acridine–Quinone Systems—A Potential Electrochemical Fluorescent Switch

The synthesis of various acridine-quinones is reported. The fluorescence-quenching quinone moiety has been incorporated into various acridine molecules, each having a different functionality at the ninth position of the acridine ring. It is envisaged that the quenching nature of the quinone will lead to the fluorescent properties of the acridine being controlled in a way similar to turning on a light switch.
