Résumé
In recent studies some urea derivatives have been identified as potent anti-tuberculosis agents by targeting mycobacterial membrane protein large 3 (MmpL3). However, this compound series as exemplified by AU1235 exhibited poor in vitro pharmacokinetic profile. With AU1235 as the lead, we have identified a novel benzimidazole series as potential anti-tuberculosis agents by using scaffold hopping approach. Among these synthesized compounds, 2-aminobenzimidazole derivative 8b showed the potent anti-tuberculosis activity with the MIC value of 0.03 microg x mL(-1). This compound also showed improved metabolic stability compared to AU1235. Our investigation indicated that benzimidazole derivatives are the promising lead for further optimization as anti-tuberculosis agents.

To research the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of glycinamide-bearing compounds that used as inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV), P32/98 and compound A were chosen as the leading compounds, heterocycles containing nitrogen atom were introduced to form amide, and different residues on a-position of carbonyl were designed. The nineteen designed compounds were synthesized by a simple route and were evaluated as inhibitors of DPP-IV. All of the structures were characterized by 1H NMR and HRMS. The preliminary SAR result was obtained.

A series of aromatic aminoketones were synthesized by Mannich reaction. Structures of these compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, MS and HRMS or element analysis. Pharmacological screening showed that most target compounds inhibited the release of beta-glucuronidase in polymorphonuclear leucocytes by PAF (platelet activating factor) and compounds MA12, MA13, MA18, MA21 and MA33 were more active. The study suggests that target compounds are potential PAF receptor antagonists and their anti-inflammatory activities are due to the inhibition of release of lysosomal enzyme.
