Facile synthesis of 6-organyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2(1H)-ones and their polyfluoroalkyl-containing analogs.

The three-component cyclization of 3-polyfluoroalkyl-3-oxopropanoates and methyl ketones with ammonium acetate affords 6-organyl-4-(polyfluoroalkyl)pyridin-2(1H)-ones (organyl is alkyl, aryl, or hetaryl). The synthesized pyridones were evaluated for antifungal, antibacterial, and analgesic activity.

Polyfluorinated salicylic acid derivatives as analogs of known drugs: Synthesis, molecular docking and biological evaluation.

We have developed the convenient methods for synthesis of polyfluorosalicylic acids and their derivatives. For the first time the biological properties of polyfluorosalicylates were investigated in vitro (permeability through the biological membranes, COX-1 inhibitory action) and in vivo (anti-inflammatory, analgesic activities, acute toxicity). Molecular docking of polyfluorinated salicylates confirmed in vitro and in vivo experiments.

Alkyl 2-arylhydrazinylidene-3-oxo-3-polyfluoroalkylpropionates as new effective and selective inhibitors of carboxylesterase.

A series of alkyl 2-Arylhydrazinylidene-3-oxo-3-polyfluoroalkylpropionates was synthesized and their inhibitory activity with respect to porcine liver carboxylesterase (CaE, EC 3.1.1.1), human erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7), and horse serum butyrylcholinesterase (BChE, EC 3.1.1.8) was studied. The molecular docking method was used to study the binding mode of the compounds in the active site of CaE. It was found that compounds containing the trifluoromethyl group in the third position of carbonyl chain are highly effective and selective inhibitors of CaE with nanomolar IC50 values, which agrees well with the results of molecular docking.
