Identification of pyrrolo-pyridine derivatives as novel class of antibacterials

Molecular Diversity - A series of 5-oxo-4H-pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyridine derivatives was identified as novel class of highly potent antibacterial agents during an extensive large-scale high-throughput...     

Synthesis of (1′S*,2R*,3R*)- and (1′S*,2R*,3S*)-N-arylsulfonyl-2-(1′-halogenethyl)-3-methylindolines and their selective toxicity against SH-SY5Y cell line

N-tosyl-2- and N-tosyl-4-halogen-substituted derivatives of 2-(1-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)aniline were synthesized and their molecular iodine-mediated cyclization was investigated. The cyclization upon interaction of N-tosyl-6-methyl-2-(1-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)aniline with molecular iodine in methyl tert-butyl ether or acetonitrile was studied, as well as the interaction of this sulfonamide with N-bromosucinimide in dichloromethane. Synthesized (2R*,3R*)- and (2R*,3S*)-N-arylsulfonyl-2-(1-halogenoethyl)-3-methylindoline derivatives showed cytotoxic activity against HEK293 cells, SH-SY5Y, Jurkat, and HepG2 cell lines. The compounds (2R*,3S*)-N-arylsulfonyl-7-bromo-2-(1-halogenoethyl)-3-methylindoline cis- 4a , stereoisomeric (2R*,3R*)-trans- 4h and (2R*,3S*)-N-tosyl-7-chloro-2-(1-halogenoethyl)-3-methylindoline cis- 4h demonstrated selective toxicity against SH-SY5Y cell line (IC₅₀ ≈ 3 ÷ 5 μM), and did not affect HEK293, Jurkat, and HepG2 cells.
