RESUMO
A series of novel 2-(5-aminomethylene-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl)-3-phenylpropionic acid ethyl esters has been synthesized. Target compounds were evaluated for their trypanocidal activity towards Trypanosoma brucei brucei and Trypanosoma brucei gambiense. Several hit-compounds (8, 10, 12) inhibited growth of the parasites at sub-micromolar concentrations (IC50 0.027-1.936⯵M) and showed significant selectivity indices (SIâ¯=â¯108-1396.2) being non-toxic towards the human primary fibroblasts. The screening of anticancer activity in vitro within NCI DTP protocol allowed to identify active 2-(5-{[5-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl)-thiazol-2-ylamino]-methylene}-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl)-3-phenylpropionic acid ethyl ester 14 that demonstrated inhibition against all 59 human tumor cell lines with the average GI50 value of 2.57⯵M. It was established that the activity type (antitrypanosomal or anticancer) as well as its level depends on the character of enamine fragment in the C5 position of thiazolidinone core.

Here it is described the synthesis, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity determination of novel rel-([Formula: see text])-6-benzoyl-7-phenyl-2-oxo-3,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-thiopyrano[2,3-d]thiazole-5-carboxylic acids. The target compounds were obtained in good yields from 5-arylidene-4-thioxo-2-thiazolidinones and [Formula: see text]-aroylacrylic acids via regio- and diastereoselective hetero-Diels-Alder reaction. The stereochemistry of the cycloaddition was confirmed by NMR spectra. The antioxidant and antimicrobial activity screening identified 7 compounds (3c, 3e, 3f, 3g, 3k, 3l, 3p) with a high level of free radical scavenging (43-77% DPPH assay), and compounds with significant influence on Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis and Candida albicans (MIC 3.13-6.25 [Formula: see text]), but slight effect on Escherichia coli.
