Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of some pyrazole derivatives as anti-inflammatory-antimicrobial agents.

The synthesis of novel series of structurally related 1H-pyrazolyl derivatives is described. All the newly synthesized compounds were tested for their in vivo anti-inflammatory activity by two different bioassays namely; cotton pellet-induced granuloma and sponge implantation model of inflammation in rats. In addition, COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitory activities, ulcerogenic effects and acute toxicity were determined. The same compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, as an example of Gram negative bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus as an example of Gram positive bacteria, and Candida albicans as a representative of fungi. The combined anti-inflammatory data from local and systemic in vivo animal models showed that compounds 4, 5, 8, 9, 11 and 12a exhibited anti-inflammatory activity comparable to that of indomethacin with no or minimal ulcerogenic effects and high safety margin (LD(50)>500 mg/Kg). In addition, compounds 4, 7, 10, 12a and 12b displayed appreciable antibacterial activities when compared with ampicillin, especially against S. aureus. Compounds 4 and 12a are the most distinctive derivatives identified in the present study because of their remarkable in vivo and in vitro anti-inflammatory potency and their pronounced antibacterial activities comparable to ampicillin against Gram positive. On the other hand, compound 12a exhibited good selective inhibitory activity against COX-2 enzyme. Therefore, such compound would represent a fruitful matrix for the development of anti-inflammatory-antimicrobial candidates.

Novel 3,5-diaryl pyrazolines and pyrazole as low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation inhibitor.

Compounds 4a-j and 5 were synthesized by cyclocondensation of 3a-j and hydrazine and showed significant LDL-antioxidant activities in the TBARS assay, the lag time of conjugated diene production, the relative electrophoretic mobility (REM) of ox-LDL, the apoB-100 fragmentation, and the macrophage-mediated LDL oxidation. Among compounds 4a-j and 5, 4a was found to be the most active compound as an inhibitor of LDL oxidation and 4a (IC50 = 0.1 microM) was 6-fold more potent than probucol (IC50 = 0.6 microM) in the TBARS assay.

Dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors derived from beta-aminoacylpiperidines bearing a fused thiazole, oxazole, isoxazole, or pyrazole.

A series of beta-aminoacylpiperidines bearing various fused five-membered heterocyclic rings was synthesized as dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors. Potent and relatively selective inhibition could be obtained, depending on choice of heterocycle, regioisomerism, and substitution. In particular, one analog (74, DPP-IV IC50=26 nM) exhibited good oral bioavailability and acceptable half-life in the rat, albeit with rather high clearance.

Synthesis of some pyrazole derivatives and preliminary investigation of their affinity binding to P-glycoprotein.

A series of substituted pyrazolines were synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer activity and for their ability to inhibit P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance by direct binding to a purified protein domain containing an ATP-binding site and a modulator interacting region. Compounds 2a and e have been found to bind to P-glycoprotein with greater affinity.

Pyrazole CCK(1) receptor antagonists. Part 1: Solution-phase library synthesis and determination of Free-Wilson additivity.

High throughput screening revealed compound 1 as a potent antagonist of the CCK(1) receptor. Evaluation of the CCK(1) SAR in a series of these diarylpyrazole antagonists was conducted in a matrix synthesis format revealing additive (Free-Wilson) and non-additive SAR. This use of additive QSAR modeling in conjunction with combinatorial libraries represents a unique approach to the evaluation of SAR interactions between the variables of any combinatorial matrix.

5-Heteroatom-substituted pyrazoles as canine COX-2 inhibitors: Part 2. Structure-activity relationship studies of 5-alkylethers and 5-thioethers.

Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of novel 2-[3-trifluoromethyl-5-alkyl(thio)ether pyrazo-1-yl]-5-methanesulfonyl pyridine derivatives for canine COX enzymes are described. The 4-cyano-5-alkyl ethers were found to have excellent potency and selectivity, whereas the 5-thioethers were potent but less selective than the ether analogs in a canine whole blood (CWB) COX-2 assay.

Synthesis and COX-2 inhibitory properties of N-phenyl- and N-benzyl-substituted amides of 2-(4-methylsulfonylphenyl)cyclopent-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid and of their pyrazole, thiophene and isoxazole analogs.

Some N-phenyl- (7a-10a) and N-benzyl-substituted (7b-10b) amido analogs of cyclooxygenase (COX-2) selective tricyclic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have been synthesized with the aim to obtain information on the structural requirements for the COX-inhibitory activity. Compounds 7-10 were tested in vitro for their inhibitory properties only towards COX-2 enzyme by measuring prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production on activated J774.2 macrophages. Some of the new compounds (7a, 8a, 9a and 9b) showed a modest activity, with percentage inhibition values near 30% at a concentration of 10 microM. These data have been tentatively explained by a conformational study which indicates that at least the N-phenyl-substituted amides 7a-9a present steric hindrances which may prevent a good interaction with COX-2 active site.

Anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of a novel pyrazole derivative, FR140423.

The pharmacological profile of a novel and newly discovered non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic compound, 3-(difluoromethyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-[4-(methylsulfinyl)phenyl]pyraz ole (FR140423), was investigated. In recombinant human cyclooxygenase enzyme assays, the inhibition of prostaglandin E2 formation by FR140423 was 150 times more selective for cyclooxygenase-2 than cyclooxygenase-1. Oral administration of FR140423 dose dependently reduced carrageenin-induced paw edema and adjuvant arthritis. These effects were two- to three-fold more potent than those of indomethacin. Unlike indomethacin, FR140423 did not induce mucosal lesions in the stomach. FR140423 showed dose-dependent anti-hyperalgesic effects in the yeast-induced hyperalgesic model. This effect was five-fold more potent than that of indomethacin. Furthermore, FR140423 increased the pain threshold in non-inflamed paws and, unlike indomethacin, it produced an analgesic effect in the tail-flick test. These analgesic effects were blocked by the mu-opioid antagonist naloxone. These results suggest that FR140423, a selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, is a potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) without gastrointestinal side effects and is a unique compound having morphine-like analgesic effects.

Studies on aminopyrazoles: antibacterial activity of some novel pyrazol.

Hydrazones 2a-d were prepared from diazotiazation of sulfanilamide or its derivatives followed by coupling with ethyl cyanoacetate. 3-Aminopyrazoles 3a-d were obtained by refluxing of 2a-d with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol. [Bis(-methylthio)methylene]malononitrile (4) was reacted with aminopyrazoles 3a-d in refluxing DMF containing triethylamine to yield the novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines 6a-d. The anilino derivatives 8a-h were obtained by fusion of compounds 6a-d with aromatic amines. When compounds 6a,c,d were subjected to the reaction with hydrazine hydrate, the hydrazino derivatives 9a-c were isolated. Also, the aminopyrazoles 3 were reacted with some electrophiles such as arylidenemalononitriles, ethoxymethylene malononitrile and ethyl ethoxymethylene cyanoacetate to yield the novel substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines 13, 17 and 19, respectively. Structures of the new compounds were established by their elemental analyses and spectral data. Most of these compounds were also tested in vitro for their antibacterial activity against some gram positive and gram negative bacteria.

Pyrazole analogues of prazosin.

A series of analogues of prazosin, in which 1-methyl or 1-phenylpyrazole moieties were substituted for the furan ring, were synthesized and studied for their alpha 1-adrenoceptor antagonist activity. The role of the five member heterocyclic substructures in determining the affinity for the alpha 1-receptor is briefly discussed.
