Abstract:
5'- substituted, 4', 5'- dihydropsoralen compounds (5) bearing tertiary amines (and salts thereof), quaternary ammonium moieties or organomercurial moieties are described. Also described are 2- substituted mercurimethyl -2-3- dihydro -benzofurans of formula (7). Also reported are versatile direct syntheses through a hitherto unknown compounds such as 3-R-4, 8-dimethyl -4',5'-dihydro -5'-bromomethylpsoralen or a 3-R-4, 8-dimethyl-4, 5'-dihydro- 5'-iodomethylpsoralen to prepare a structurally diverse array of partially reduced psoralens and benzofurans. The presence of a permanent ammonium charge in these psoralens precludes membrane passage and the mono-unsaturation precludes the cross linking of nuclear DNA, thereby minimizing the mutagenic/carcinogenic side effects long associated with psoralen-derived therapies. The presence of a mercury functionality provides a reactive cell-binding group on these psoralens with unique cytotoxicity without light activation and an enhancement of cytotoxicity activity upon light activation. The invention also relates to these partially reduced and quaternized psoralens, amino-substituted psoralens, and mercurio psoralens display impressive pharmacology against PAM 212 keratinocytes, a model cell line employed as a test system to indicate epidermal cytotoxicity and cancer. The compounds of the invention also have antimicrobicidal activity useful in pharmacologic agents for mammals (e.g. the treatment of tuberculosis) as well as in controlling the growth of microorganisms on substrates and in aqueous systems.
Abstract:
The invention relates to 4'-substituted-4',5'-dihydropsoralen compounds of formula(V):In the formula R is hydrogen, a halogen, CN or an acyl group; T is a halogen, CN, a carboalkoxy group NR1R2, or (N+R1R2R3)X-, R1 and R2 are independently a C1-C6 alkyl, or R1 and R2 together with the nitrogen form a 5-8 member heterocyclic ring, or when T is (N+R1R2R3)X-, R1 and R2 together with the nitrogen form a 5-8 member heterocyclic ring or heterocyclic aromatic ring; R3 is hydrogen, a C1-C12 alkyl, or, when R1 and R2 together with the nitrogen form a heterocyclic aromatic ring, R3 is a double bond within the heterocyclic aromatic ring; X- is a halide. In another embodiment, the invention relates to processes for preparing 4'-substituted-4',5'-dihydropsoralen compounds described above. The compounds of the invention have beneficial pharmaceutical properties and can be used alone or in pharmaceutical compositions used to treat a proliferative skin disorder and to treat microbial infections in a mammal by administering to the mammal an effective amount of a compound of the invention and then irradiating the mammal with ultraviolet light.
Abstract:
Se describen compuestos 4',5'-dihidropsoralen 5'-substituido que portan aminas terciarias (y sales de las mismas), porciones de amonio cuaternarias o porciones organomercuriales. Tambien se describen mercurimetil-2-3-dihidro-benzofuranos 2-substituidos de la formula (7). Tambien se reportan sintesis directas versatiles a traves de compuestos desconocidos hasta la fecha tales como 3-R-4,8-dimetil-4',5'-dihidro-5'-bromometilpsoralen o un 3-R-4,8- dimetil-4,5'-dihidro-5'-yodometilpsoralen para preparar una disposicion estructuralmente diversa de psoralens parcialmente reducidos y benzofuranos. La presencia de una carga de amonio permanente en estos psoralens descarta el paso de membrana y la mono instauracion descarta la reticulacion de ADN nuclear, minimizando por lo mismo los efectos laterales mutagenicos/carcinogenicos grandes asociados con terapias derivadas de psoralens. La presencia de una funcionalidad de mercurio proporciona un grupo de enlace celula reactivo en estos psoralens con citotoxicidad unica sin activacion de luz y un incremento de actividad de citotoxicidad ante activacion de luz. La invencion tambien se relaciona a estos. psoralens cuaternizados y parcialmente reducidos, psoralens amino substituidos, y psoralens de mercurio exhiben farmacologia impresiva contra queratinocitos PAM 212, una linea celular modelo empleada como un sistema de prueba para indicar citotoxicidad epidermica y cancer. Los compuestos de la invencion tambien tienen actividad antimicrobicida util en agentes farmacologicos para mamiferos (por ejemplo el tratamiento de tuberculosis) asi como tambien para controlar el crecimiento de microorganismos en substratos y en sistemas acuosos.
