Amino-substituted 1,8-naphthyridines and pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines: new compounds with affinity for A1- and A2-adenosine receptors.

Two novel classes of adenosine receptor (AR) antagonists, 4-amino-1,8-naphthyridines and 5-aminopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines, have been identified and investigated in radioligand binding assays. The compounds exhibit affinities for A1 and A2a AR of rat brain in the micromolar range. 1,8-Naphthyridines are non-selective, or somewhat selective for either A1- or A2 AR. Pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines are several-fold selective for A1 AR, the most potent and selective compound being 5-n-butylamino-1,3-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrido-[2,3-d]pyr imi dine-2,4-dione (12) with a Ki value of 1.8 microM at A1 AR and greater than 10-fold A1-selectivity.

7-azetidinylquinolones as antibacterial agents. 2. Synthesis and biological activity of 7-(2,3-disubstituted-1-azetidinyl)-4-oxoquinoline- and -1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acids. Properties and structure-activity relationships of quinolones with an azetidine moiety.

A series of 7-(2,3-disubstituted-1-azetidinyl)-1,4-dihydro-6-fluoro-4- oxoquinoline- and -1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acids, with varied substituents at the 1-, 5-, and 8-positions, was prepared to study the effects on potency and physicochemical properties of the substituent at position 2 of the azetidine moiety. The activity of the title compounds was determined in vitro against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and the in vivo efficacy of selected derivatives was determined using a mouse infection model. The X-ray crystal structures of 6b, 6c, and 6d were found to be in reasonable agreement with the corresponding AM1 calculated geometries. Correlations between antibacterial potency of all the synthesized 7-azetidinylquinolones and naphthyridines and their calculated electronic properties and experimental capacity factors were established. Antibacterial efficacy and pharmacokinetic and physicochemical properties of selected derivatives were compared to the relevant 7-(3-amino-1-azetidinyl) and 7-(3-amino-3-methyl-1-azetidinyl) analogues (for Part 1, see: J. Med. Chem. 1993, 36, 801-810). A combination of a cyclopropyl or a substituted phenyl group at N-1 and a trans-3-amino-2-methyl-1-azetidinyl group at C-7 conferred the best overall antibacterial, pharmacokinetic, and physicochemical properties to the azetidinylquinolones studied.

Fluorescent organic nanoparticles of benzofuran-naphthyridine linked molecules: formation and fluorescence enhancement in aqueous media.

[structure: see text] Ethynyl-linked benzofuran-naphthyridine compounds show high-yield fluorescence with solvatochromic properties. One of the compounds, ABAN, has successfully formed fluorescent organic nanoparticles (FONs), for which the photophysical properties such as the spectral features and intensity are remarkably different from those at the molecular level (solution) and in bulk material. The results are tentatively rationalized by the FONs inducing coplanarization of the benzofuran-naphthyridine molecule to extend its effective conjugation length and hence increase the oscillator strength.

The in vitro and in vivo antimalarial activity of some Mannich bases derived from 4-(7'-trifluoromethyl-1',5'-naphthyridin-4'-ylamino)phenol, 2-(7'-trifluoromethyl-quinolin-4'-ylamino)phenol, and 4'-chloro-5-(7''-trifluoromethylquinolin-4''-ylamino)biphenyl -2-ols.

A series of di-Mannich base derivatives (4 and 5) from 4-(7'-trifluoromethyl-1',5'-naphthyridin-4'-ylamino)phenol and 2-(7'-trifluoromethylquinolin-4'-ylamino)phenol, respectively, and mono-Mannich base derivatives (6) from 4'-chloro-5-(7''-trifluoromethylquinolin-4''- ylamino)biphenyl-2-ol were assayed for activity against the chloroquine-sensitive (FCQ-27) isolate of cultured Plasmodium falciparum using the inhibition of uptake of radiolabelled hypoxanthine. All seven di-Mannich base derivatives (5) revealed a higher activity than chloroquine, whereas the di-Mannich base derivatives (4) were slightly less active (with some derivatives more active and some less active than chloroquine). The mono-Mannich base derivatives (6) were less active than chloroquine. Comparative tests of selected compounds of (4 and 5) using a morphological assay revealed no significant differences in activity between the chloroquine-sensitive (FCQ-27) and chloroquine-resistant (K-1) isolates. Selected di-Mannich bases (4 and 5) and the mono-Mannich bases 5-7''-bromo (and 7-trifluoromethyl)-1'',5''-naphthyridin-4''-ylamino)-3-(t- butylaminomethyl)-4'-chlorobiphenyl-2-ols (7, X = Br, CF3) markedly suppressed parasitaemia in Plasmodium vinckei vinckei infected mice when administered (i.p.) in a single dose of 200 mg kg-1.

New broad-spectrum cephalosporins with anti-pseudomonal activity. I. Synthesis and antibacterial activity of 7 beta-[D-2-[(4-hydroxy-1,5-naphthyridine-3-carbonylamino)- and (4-hydroxypyridine-3-carbonylamino)]-2-(4-hydoxyphenyl)acetamido] cephalosporins.

The synthesis and the antibacterial activity of 7 beta-[D-2-[(4-hydroxy-1,5-naphthyridine-3-carbonylamino)- and (4-hydroxypyridine-3-carbonylamino)]-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamido]-cephalosporins with various substituents at the 3-position in the cephem nucleus are described. These compounds exhibited strong antibacterial activities against a variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacter aerogenes, which are insensitive to cefazolin and cefmetazole. The compounds (3e, 4e) having a 1-methyl-1H-tetrazolylthiomethyl group at the 3-position appeared to show the best activity in each series. The 4-hydroxypyridine-3-carbonylamino derivative 4e gave higher peak serum concentrations and urinary recovery rates than those of the 4-hydroxy-1,5-naphthyridine derivative 3e when administered subcutaneously to mice and intramuscularly to rats.

Synthesis and characterization of oligodeoxynucleotides containing naphthyridine:imidazopyridopyrimidine base pairs at their sticky ends. Application as thermally stabilized decoy molecules.

We describe the synthesis and properties of oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) containing 1,8-naphthyridine C-nucleoside (Na-NO) and imidazo[5',4':4,5]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine nucleoside (Im-ON) at the termini. The modified ODNs were more resistant (6 to 40 times) than natural DNA to snake venom phosphodiesterase (SVPD). Although incorporation of one pair each of Na-NO:Im-ON on the sticky ends of the duplex was insufficient for thermal stabilization (+2.5 degrees C per pair relative to the G:C pair), the duplex containing two consecutive Na-NO:Im-ON pairs at its sticky ends was markedly stabilized thermally. The stabilizing effect of the incorporation of additional Na-NO:Im-ON pairs is estimated to be +7.8 degrees C per pair. Application as thermally stabilized decoy molecules to NF-kappaB (p50) was also demonstrated. The DNA duplexes containing the Na-NO:Im-ON pairs (ODN I:ODN II and ODN III:ODN IV) acted as competitors to the natural NF-kappaB-binding duplex (ODN V: ODN VI), and the calculated IC50 values of ODN I:ODN II and ODN III:ODN IV were 20.1+/-13.3 and 10.9+/-4.8 nM, respectively, greater than that of ODN V:ODN VI.

In vitro evaluation of E-4695, a new fluoro-naphthyridine.

Compound E-4695, a C-7 azetidinyl fluoro-naphthyridine, was compared to six structurally related quinolones and was generally two- to four-fold more active than ciprofloxacin. E-4695 was particularly active against Staphylococcus aureus (MIC90 0.06 mg/l), Staphylococcus haemolyticus (MIC90 0.5 mg/l), Klebsiella spp. (MIC90 less than or equal to 0.015 mg/l), Serratia marcescens (MIC90 0.06 mg/l), Acinetobacter spp. (MIC90 less than or equal to 0.015 mg/l), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MIC90 0.5 mg/l), Xanthomonas maltophilia (MIC90 0.5 mg/l), and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (MIC90 less than or equal to 0.001 mg/l). This new quinolone-like drug requires further investigations to confirm these promising in vitro findings.

Nitro and amino substitution within the A-ring of 5H-8,9-dimethoxy-5-(2-N,N-dimethylaminoethyl)dibenzo[c,h][1,6]naphthyridin-6-ones: influence on topoisomerase I-targeting activity and cytotoxicity.

Recently, 5H-8,9-dimethoxy-5-(2-N,N-dimethylaminoethyl)-2,3-methylenedioxydibenzo[c,h][1,6]naphthyridin-6-one, 1, was identified as a TOP1-targeting agent with pronounced antitumor activity. In the present study, the effect on activity of substituting a single nitro or amino group in the A-ring in lieu of the methylenedioxy moiety of 1 was evaluated. The presence of either a nitro or amino substituent at the 4-position had a pronounced adverse affect on both TOP1-targeting activity and cytotoxicity. To a lesser extent, derivatives with a nitro or amino substituent at the 1-position were also less active than 1. Replacement of the methylenedioxy moiety of 1 with either a nitro or amino substituent at either the 2- and 3-position did result in analogues with potent TOP1-targeting activity and cytotoxicity.

Synthesis and cytotoxic activity of carboxamide derivatives of benzo[b][1,6]naphthyridin-(5H)ones.

A previous reaction leading to 2-substituted 6-methyl-1-oxo-1,2-dihydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridine-4-carboxylic acids has been extended to encompass a broad range of 2-substituents. Derived carboxamides, particularly 4-N-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl], were tested for growth inhibitory properties. Potent cytotoxicity against murine P388 leukemia and Lewis lung carcinoma (LLTC) was retained for compounds bearing a remarkably diverse range of 2-substituents with a number having IC50 values <10 nM. Five of the new compounds were tested in vivo against subcutaneous colon 38 tumors in mice; a single dose (1.8 mg/kg) proved curative for the 2-(4-fluorophenyl) derivative, a further increase in potency over the very effective 2-methyl analogue reported previously.

6-Substituted 6H-dibenzo[c,h][2,6]naphthyridin-5-ones: reversed lactam analogues of ARC-111 with potent topoisomerase I-targeting activity and cytotoxicity.

6-Substituted 8,9-dimethoxy-2,3-methylenedioxy-6H-dibenzo[c,h][2,6]naphthyridin-5-ones were synthesized and evaluated for topoisomerase I-targeting activity and cytotoxicity. Several of these reversed lactam analogues of ARC-111 exhibited exceptional cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 0.5 to 3.0 nM. In contrast to topotecan, no resistance was observed with several of these reversed lactam analogues in tumor cell lines that overexpressed the efflux transporters MDR1 or BCRP.

Dimethoxybenzo[i]phenanthridine-12-carboxylic acid derivatives and 6H-dibenzo[c,h][2,6]naphthyridin-5-ones with potent topoisomerase I-targeting activity and cytotoxicity.

The exceptional TOP1-targeting activity and antitumor activity of ARC-111, 1, prompted studies on similarly substituted benzo[i]phenanthridine-12-carboxylic ester and amide derivatives. These studies were extended to include 6-substituted 8,9-dimethoxy-2,3-methylenedioxy-dibenzo[c,h][2,6]naphthyridin-5-ones, which represent reversed lactam analogues of 1. Several of these analogues retained the potent TOP1-targeting activity and cytotoxicity observed for ARC-111.

A series of 5-(5,6)-dihydrouracil substituted 8-hydroxy-[1,6]naphthyridine-7-carboxylic acid 4-fluorobenzylamide inhibitors of HIV-1 integrase and viral replication in cells.

Introduction of a 5,6-dihydrouracil functionality in the 5-position of N-(4-fluorobenzyl)-8-hydroxy-[1,6]naphthyridine-7-carboxamide 1 led to a series of highly active HIV-1 integrase inhibitors. These compounds displayed low nanomolar activity in inhibiting both the strand transfer process of HIV-1 integrase and viral replication in cells. Compound 11 is a 150-fold more potent antiviral agent than 1, with a CIC(95) of 40 nM in the presence of human serum. It displays good pharmacokinetics when dosed in rats and dogs.
