Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of arylazoenamines.

The possibility to obtain new arylazoenamines endowed with antifungal activity was examined by reacting with acids the arylhydrazones of several keto- and aldo-tert, amines as dimethyl-3-aminoacetone, 3-quinuclidinone, 1-methyl-3-piperidone and 2-formyl-1-methylpyrrolidine. The reaction was successful only in the last two cases. From each 1-methyl-3-piperidone arylhydrazone two isomeric arylazoenamines were formed, which were identical with those obtained from the analogous arylhydrazone of 2-formyl-1-methylpyrrolidine. The structure of these compounds was settled on the ground of UV, IR, NMR and mass spectra and confirmed by means of X-ray analysis. A mechanism is proposed for the formation of arylazoenamines through the contraction of piperidine ring and enlargement of the pyrrolidinic one. The prepared compounds [3-arylazo-1-methyl-delta 2-piperideines 17 and 1-methyl-2(arylazo)methylene pyrrolidines 18 exhibited only a very weak antibacterial activity, but were moderately active against several Candida species and other yeast-like fungi.

The interpretation of the mass spectrum of an ornithine-containing lipid from Thiobacillus thiooxidans.

The electron impact mass spectrum of a previously identified ornithine-containing lipid from Thiobacillus thiooxidans has been interpreted using exact mass measurements, low and high energy ionization, and defocused metastable studies. The spectrum, which did not contain a molecular ion for the intact lipid, was consistent with cyclization of the ornithine zwitterionic moiety with elimination of water to give 3[3'-(11,12-methylene-2-hydroxyoctadecanoxy)hexadecanylamine]-2-piperidone. Production of this sufficiently volatile species for mass spectral analysis was accomplished by gentle pyrolysis in the mass spectrometer source. The spectrum can be understood to arise by three primary decompositions which serve to separate the two fatty acid constituents. The remainder of the spectrum is consistent with the expected fragmentations of these constituents.

Involvement of singlet oxygen in cytochrome P450-dependent substrate oxidations.

Cytochrome P450 (P450)-dependent p-hydroxylation of aniline and o-deethylation of 7-ethoxycoumarin were examined in rat liver microsomes in the presence of radical scavengers. The addition of beta-carotene, a quencher of singlet oxygen species ((1)O(2)), suppressed the aniline hydroxylation, while the addition of sodium azide (NaN(3)) ((1)O(2) quencher) enhanced the reaction. No other reactive oxygen scavengers or chelating agents such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, dimethylsulfoxide, or deferoxamine altered the reaction. In contrast, the microsomal o-deethylation of 7-ethoxycoumarin was suppressed by the addition of NaN(3). (1)O(2) was detectable during the reaction of microsomes and NADPH by ESR spin-trapping when 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone (TMPD) was used as a spin trap, and the (1)O(2) was quenched by the additions of beta-carotene, NaN(3), aniline, and 7-ethoxycoumarin. The enhancement effect of NaN(3) in the hydroxylation of aniline appeared to be due to the conformational change of P450 protein, which in turn enhances the binding of aniline to P450 in terms of the spectral dissociation constant (K(s)). In contrast, (1)O(2) appeared to be active in the o-deethylation of 7-ethoxycoumarin. On the basis of the results, the involvement of (1)O(2) in P450-dependent substrate oxygenations is proposed.

Irradiation of titanium dioxide generates both singlet oxygen and superoxide anion.

Although photoexcited TiO2 has been known to initiate various chemical reactions, such as the generation of reactive oxygen species, precise mechanism and chemical nature of the generated species remain to be elucidated. The present work demonstrates the generation of singlet oxygen by irradiated TiO2 in ethanol as measured by ESR spectroscopy using 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone (4-oxo-TMP) as a 1O2-sensitive trapping agent. Under identical conditions, the superoxide ion was also detected by spin trapping agent 5,5-dimethyl-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO). Kinetic analysis in the presence of both 4-oxo-TMP and DMPO revealed that singlet oxygen is produced directly at the irradiated TiO2 surface but not by a successive reaction involving superoxide anion. The basis for this view is the fact that DMPO added in the mixture increased the signals responsible for 4-oxo-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (4-oxo-TEMPO), a reaction product of 4-oxo-TMP and 1O2. The detailed mechanism for the generation of 1O2 and superoxide ion by irradiated TiO2 and reactions between these species and DMPO are discussed.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of certain alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones and their corresponding fused pyridines as antiviral and cytotoxic agents.

A new series of 3,5-bis(arylidene)-4-piperidones, as chalcone analogues carrying variety of aryl and heteroaryl groups, pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridines, pyridolo[4,3-c]pyrimidines, and pyrido[4,3-c]-pyridines, carrying an arylidene moiety, and a series of pyrano[3,2-c]pyridines, as flavone and coumarin isosteres, were synthesized and screened for their in vitro antiviral and antitumor activities at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Compounds 9 and 18 proved to be active against herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1), while compound 13 showed moderate activity against human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1). Compounds 14, 26, 28, 33, and 35 exhibited a broad spectrum antitumor activity. In addition, compounds 26, 33, and 35 proved to be of moderate selectivity toward leukemia cell lines. The pyrano[3,2-c]pyridines heterocyclic system proved to be the most active antitumors among the investigated heterocycles.

Constrained derivatives of stylostatin 1. 1. Synthesis and biological evaluation as potential anticancer agents.

Hydroxyaminolactams have been used as constrained surrogates of the Ser-Leu dipeptide in the synthesis of analogues of the cycloheptapeptide stylostatin 1 (2). The rate of cyclization through formation of the Ile-Pro amide bond allowed us to prove that the valerolactams used induced a turn in the linear precursor. Ring closure at the Pro-Phe amide bond was much quicker and provided access to larger amounts of the target structures, with high purity. The conformation of psi-stylostatin 4 was compared to that of native stylostatin 1 using NMR analysis. The ability of three psi-stylostatins and the native stylostatin 1 to inhibit growth of cancer cell lines was tested. None of the compounds showed activity below 1 microM. A possible relationship between the decrease in activity and the presence of the piperidone Ser-Leu surrogate is considered.

Asymmetric synthesis of (-)-adaline.

[reaction: see text] An enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-adaline has been achieved starting from a chiral 6,6-disubstituted piperidone derivative previously prepared by diastereoselective allylation of a chiral tricyclic N-acyl-N,O-acetal. The key steps include lithium ion-activated SN2-type alkynylation of the tricyclic N,O-acetal leading to exclusive formation of the (6S)-ethynylpiperidine and ring-closing olefin metathesis of the (2R,6S)-cis-2,6-dialkenylpiperidine for constructing the bridged azabicyclononane.

ESR detection of 1O2 reveals enhanced redox activity in illuminated cell cultures.

Low-energy visible light (LEVL) has previously been found to modulate various processes in different biological systems. One explanation for the stimulatory effect of LEVL is light-induced reactive oxygen species formation. In the present study, both sperm and skin cells were illuminated with LEVL and were found to generate singlet oxygen (1O2). The detection of 1O2 was performed using a trapping probe, 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone, coupled with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. In addition, we have shown that, together with O2 generation, LEVL illumination increases the reductive capacity of the cells, which explains the difficulties encountered in 1O2 detection. The potential of visible light to change the cellular redox state may explain the recently observed biostimulative effects exerted by LEVL.

Singlet oxygen-dependent hydroxyl radical formation during uroporphyrin-mediated photosensitization in the presence of NADPH.

The conversion of singlet oxygen ((1)O2) to hydroxyl radical (*OH) during photosensitization of uroporphyrin (UP) in the presence of NADPH was examined by a spin-trapping technique with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO). Significant electron spin resonance (ESR) signals of DMPO-OH adduct were observed during irradiation of the UP-NADPH system with visible light. Scavengers of *OH reduced the signal intensity to 3-30% of control, indicating that more than 70% of DMPO-OH results from freely diffusing *OH. The ESR signal was almost completely lost when quenchers of (1)O2 were added, and was enhanced when the amount of deutrated solvent was increased. The appearance of (1)O2, as determined by the oxidation of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone (TEMPD), was delayed with an increase in the concentration of NADPH, whereas the production of *OH was upregulated. These observations indicate that conversion of (1)O2 to *OH occurs quickly in the presence of NADPH. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was produced (1)O2-dependently during irradiation of UP in the presence of NADPH. However, neither catalase nor desferrioxamine decreased the DMPO-OH signal, and addition of H2O2 did not increase the signal. SOD increased the signal only slightly. These results suggest that the production of *OH from (1)O2 involves neither superoxide anion radical nor H2O2.

Synthesis, stereochemistry, and antimicrobial activity of 2,6-diaryl-3-(arylthio)piperidin-4-ones.

A series of novel 2,6-diaryl-3-(arylthio)piperidin-4-ones have been synthesized by reaction of arylthioacetones, substituted aromatic aldehydes, and methylamine/ammonium acetate and their structures elucidated by (1)H, (13)C, and 2D NMR (H, H-COSY, C, H-COSY, HMBC, and NOESY) spectroscopy. The NMR data reveal that all these piperidones exist in chair conformation with the 2,6-diaryl groups equatorially oriented, while the arylthio group prefers to be in either an equatorial or axial orientation depending on whether the substituent in the 2,6-diaryl rings is present in 4- or 2-position, respectively. In the case of NH-2,6-diaryl-3-(arylthio)piperidin-4-ones with o-substituted 2,6-diaryl groups, the arylthio group prefers the axial orientation presumably in a bid to minimize the steric and/or electronic repulsion. The arylthiopiperidin-4-ones exhibit significant antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio cholerae, Salmonella typhi, and Escherichia coli and antifungal activity against Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger.

In vivo singlet-oxygen generation in blood of chromium(VI)-treated mice: an electron spin resonance spin-trapping study.

Although it is assumed from in vitro experiments that the generation of reactive oxygen species such as the singlet oxygen (1O2), the hydroxyl radical, and the superoxide anion are responsible for chromium(VI) toxicity/carcinogenicity, no electron spin resonance (ESR) evidence for the generation of 1O2 in vivo has been reported. In this study, we have employed an ESR spin-trapping technique with 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone (TMPD), a specific 1O2 trap, to detect 1O2 in blood. The ESR spectrum of the spin adduct observed in the blood of mice given 4.8 mmol Cr(VI)/kg body weight exhibited the 1:1:1 intensity pattern of three lines with a hyperfine coupling constant A(N) = 16.08 G and a g-value = 2.0066. The concentration of spin adduct detected in the blood was 1.46 microM (0.1% of total Cr concentration). The adduct production was inhibited by the addition of specific 1O2 scavengers such as 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane and sodium azide to the blood. The results indicate that the spin adduct is nitroxide produced by the reaction of 1O2 with TMPD. This is the first report of ESR evidence for the in vivo generation of 1O2 in mammals by Cr(VI).

Epiderstatin, a new inhibitor of the mitogenic activity induced by epidermal growth factor. II. Structure elucidation.

The structure of a novel antibiotic, epiderstatin, was determined as 4-[3-((Z)-3,5-dimethyl-2-oxopiperidin-6-ylidene)-2-oxopropyl]-2, 6-piperidinedione by spectroscopic analyses of 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 1H-1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), 13C-1H COSY, heteronuclear multiple bond correlation spectroscopy, UV and IR spectra. The antibiotic belongs to the glutarimide antibiotics, however, the characteristic feature of epiderstatin is that it has a piperidone ring instead of a cyclohexanone ring.

Increased endogenous ascorbyl free radical formation with singlet oxygen scavengers in reperfusion injury: an EPR and functional recovery study in rat hearts.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of singlet oxygen ((1)O2) scavengers on functional recovery and ascorbyl free radical (AFR) formation in isolated ischemic rat hearts. Hearts were subjected to 40 min. of global ischemia followed by 30 min. of reperfusion. Hemodynamics were measured as heart rate (HR), coronary flow (CF), left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) and contractility (dP/dt). Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was used to measure AFR release in coronary perfusate during the first two min. of reperfusion as a function of ROS scavengers. Relative to ischemic controls the administration of the (1)O2 scavengers 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone x HCl (4-oxo-TEMP), carnosine (beta-alanyl-L-histidine) or a combination of the two significantly improved functional recovery as measured by LVDP. While no AFR signal was detected in coronary perfusate collected during preischemic perfusion with and without (1)O2 scavengers, the AFR background signal due to ischemia was significantly increased with the (1)O2 and *O2- scavengers. No such increase was observed with the hydroxyl radical (*OH) scavenger mannitol. Besides the AFR increase with the (1)O2 and *O2- scavengers the functional recovery was only significantly improved with the (1)O2 scavengers. In contrast to previous AFR studies we found with endogenous AFR that an increased AFR formation is not necessarily only reflecting increased oxidative stress but can also report improved functional recovery. Combining the hemodynamic data with increased AFR formation in the presence of several different ROS scavengers gives supportive evidence for (1)O2 also being involved in reperfusion injury.

Singlet oxygen is the major species participating in the induction of DNA strand breakage and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine adduct by lead acetate.

To investigate DNA damage induced by Pb2+ and its prevention by scavengers, we determined DNA strand breakage and the formation of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in DNA using plasmid relaxation assay and HPLC with electrochemical detection, respectively. Lead acetate induced DNA strand breakage in 10 mM of Hepes buffer, pH 6.8, in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Compared with lead, zinc acetate did not significantly induce DNA breakage. The singlet oxygen scavengers NaN3 and 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone (TEMP) inhibited lead-induced DNA breakage more efficiently than the hydroxyl radical scavengers mannitol and DMPO. Deuterium oxide (D2O), a singlet oxygen enhancer, potentiated lead-induced DNA breakage. At low ratios to Pb2+, NADPH, glutathione, and 2-mercaptoethanol enhanced lead-induced DNA breakage, whereas high ratios of these agents protected it. Catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD) did not protect DNA breaks induced by Pb2+. Lead-induced DNA breakage was markedly enhanced by H2O2, and this induction was inhibited by NaN3, TEMP, EDTA, catalase, BSA, and glutathione. In contrast, mannitol and SOD potentiated Pb2+/H2O2-induced DNA breaks. The results indicate that singlet oxygen, lead, and H2O2 are all involved in the reaction system, whereas hydroxyl radical and superoxide did not. Lead could cause a small amount of 8-OHdG formation in calf thymus DNA and dose-dependently induced the formation of this adduct in the presence of H2O2. Singlet oxygen scavengers were more effective than hydroxyl radical scavengers in protection from lead/H2O2-induced 8-OHdG adducts. Taken together, these results suggest that lead may induce DNA damage through a Fenton-like reaction and that singlet oxygen is the principal species involved.

The 1,3-diazaadamantan-6-ones 13-18 are synthesized from the 4-piperidones 1-3. Different conditions lead to stereoisomeric structures. The 3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-ones 8 and 9 show similar geometrical isomerisms. The configuration is determined by means of 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopic data. Whereas the diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanones 7 and 12 show opioid-like effects, the diazaadamantanone 13 is a peripheral analgesic.

[Synthesis and CNS-activity of spirocyclic pethidine and prodine analogs].

The bromoacetals 5a and 5b react with n-butyllithium and the piperidone 7 to yield the hydroxyacetals 8b and 8c, respectively. Cyclization of 8b and 8c followed by acid hydrolysis affords the spirocyclic hemiacetals 10b and 10c which are oxidized by PCC to give the spirocyclic prodine analogues 4b and 4c. The corresponding spirocyclic pethidine derivative 2 is prepared by alkylation of the 2-benzopyran-3-one 16 with N-Lost (17). In the mouse writhing test the spiropethidine 2 is not analgesic active up to a dose of 20 mg/kg body weight (bw). In the spirocyclic prodine series the methylated lactone 4c is the most active analgesic with an ED50-value (ED50 = 9.2 mg/kg bw) in the range of the ED50-value of tramadol.
