Abstract

:
A series of twenty six arylpiperazine and aminoalkanol derivatives of 4-aza-tricyclo[5.2.2.02,6]undecane-3,5,8-trione have been prepared. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity and anti-HIV-1 activity in MT-4 cells.

Introduction

Currently available drugs for the treatment of HIV virus are based on combination of two types of anti-HIV-1 agents: nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (RTIs) and protease inhibitors [1]. The RTIs can be divided into nucleoside (NI) and non-nucleoside RT inhibitors (NNRTI). Several non-nucleoside inhibitors have been described, including nevirapine, thiobenzimidazolone (TIBO) derivatives, pyridinone derivatives and the bis(heteroaryl)piperazines (BHAPs), such as delavirdine and atevirdine [2]. Another arylpiperazine, vicriviroc, is currently in Phase II clinical trials [3]. However, the application of these agents is limited by serious side effects and the emergence of resistant strains. The discovery of new BHAPs analogs is actively proceeding [4,5]. Moreover, arylpiperazine derivatives exhibit a wide range of other biological activities: antiviral [6,7], anticancer [8,9], antioxidative [10], antibacterial [11] and antiarrythmic [12,13]. Many compounds of this class show high affinity for α1-adrenergic [14], dopaminergic [15] and serotoninergic receptors [16,17].
This work is a continuation of our investigation in the field of long-chain arylpiperazines [19], in a group of 4-azatricyclo[5.2.2.02,6]undecane-3,5,8-trione derivatives. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory effects against the HIV-1 multiplication in acutely infected MT-4 cells (investigations performed at the Dipartamento di Scienze e Tecnologie Biomediche, Universita di Cagliari, Monserrato, Italy).

Results and Discussion

The first step of the multistage synthesis was the reaction of cyclohex-2-en-1-one with maleimide, in the presence of p-toluenosulfonic acid and isopropenyl acetate (Scheme 1). 3,5-Dioxo-4-aza-tricyclo[5.2.2.02,6]undec-8-en-8-yl acetate (1) obtained in this reaction was then hydrolyzed by heating with aqueous-ethanolic solution of ammonia to give imide 2.

By alkylation of the latter with dibromoalkanes and 2-(chloromethyl)oxirane, the respective bromoalkyl- and 4-(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)- derivatives 3–5 were obtained. Next, the compounds were condensed with appropriate amines to give derivatives3a–5j. The general synthetic pathway is given in Scheme 1. The structure of all compounds have been established on the basis of elemental analysis, 1H-NMR and X-ray crystallography of 1, 2 and 5e (Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure 3).
The molecular geometry adopted in the solid-state by 1, 2 and 5e is influenced by a pattern of intermolecular contacts. The imide part of 1 and 2 is involved in intermolecular N-H···O hydrogen bonds which differentiate two peptide units: N1-C2=O2 and N1-C1=O1, causing the lengthening of the C=O bond and the shortening of C-N distance around the O atom, the latter being a hydrogen bond acceptor. The dimeric association around the center of symmetry is observed in the crystal structure of 1, while molecules 2 form chains. In contrast, the imide moiety of 5e is symmetric having equal respective bond lengths within the (O1)C1-N1-C2(O2) fragment. The hydrocarbon skeleton is rigid.

Thirty one new compounds were obtained. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity and anti-HIV-1 activity in MT-4 cells. The results are shown in Table 1. None of investigated compounds showed any anti HIV-1 activity, however, their cytotoxicity determined by the MTT method is greater then 100 μM.

Experimental

General

All chemicals and solvents were purchased from Aldrich (Vienna, Austria). Melting points were determined on Electrothermal Digital Melting Point Apparatus (Essex, UK) and are uncorrected. The 1H-NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker (Rheinstetten, Germany) spectrometer, operating at 400 MHz. The chemical shift values are expressed in ppm relative to TMS as an internal standard. Elemental analyses were recorded on a CHN model 2400 Perkin-Elmer (Hitachi, Tokyo, Japan). TLC was carried out using silica gel 60 F254, layer thickness 0.25 mm (E. Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) and the results were visualized using UV lamp at 254 nm. Column chromatography was carried out using silica gel 60 (200–400 mesh, Merck). The X-ray diffraction data were collected at 295 K with a KM4 diffractometer using graphite monochromated CuKα radiation (λ = 1.54178 Å) and ω/2θ scan mode. structures were solved by the SHELXS-97 program [20] and refined by full-matrix least-squares on F2 using the SHELXL-97 program [21]. Non hydrogen atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters. Carbon-bonded H-atoms were posititoned geometrically and ‘riding’ model was used in the refinement. The H-atoms of the hydroxyl, imide and piperidine groups were located on difference maps. The experimental details and final atomic parameters for 1, 2 and 5e have been deposited with the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre as supplementary material under deposition numbers CCDC 659529-659531, respectively.

Biological Assays: Compounds

Compounds were dissolved in DMSO at 100 mM and then diluted in the culture medium.

Cells and Viruses

Cell lines were purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). The absence of mycoplasma contamination was checked periodically by the Hoechst staining method. Cell lines supporting the multiplication of RNA viruses were the following: CD4+ human T-cells containing an integrated HTLV-1 genome (MT-4).

Cytotoxicity Assays

For cytotoxicity evaluations, exponentially growing cells derived from human haematological tumors [CD4+ human T-cells containing an integrated HTLV-1 genome (MT-4)] were seeded at an initial density of 1×105 cells/mL in 96 well plates in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS), 100 units/mL penicillin G and 100 µg/mL streptomycin. Cell cultures were then incubated at 37°C in a humidified, 5% CO2 atmosphere in the absence or presence of serial dilutions of test compounds. Cell viability was determined after 96 hrs at 37°C by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) method [22].

Antiviral assay

Activity of compounds against Human Immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) was based on inhibition of virus-induced cytopathogenicity in MT-4 cells acutely infected with a multiplicity of infection (m.o.i.) of 0.01. Briefly, 50 μL of RPMI containing 2×104 MT-4 were added to each well of flat-bottom microtitre trays containing 50 μL of RPMI, without or with serial dilutions of test compounds. Then, 20 μL of an HIV-1 suspension containing 100 CCID50 were added. After a 4-day incubation, cell viability was determined by the MTT method.
