1,4-Benzothiazine (1,4-BT) derivatives have been reported to exhibit a wide range of pharmacological properties including antifungal, immunostimulating, anti-aldoso-reductase, anti-rheumatic, anti-allergic, vasorelaxant, anti-arrhythmic, anti-hypertensive, neuroprotective and cytotoxic activities. These different effects indicate that 1,4-BT is a template potentially useful in medicinal chemistry research and therapeutic applications.
In a program aimed at the design and synthesis of novel azole inhibitors of Candida albicans CYP51 (CA-CYP51), a series of azole 1,4-benzothiazines (BT) and 1,4-benzoxazines (BO) were recently synthesized. A morphological study of the enzyme active site highlighted a hydrophobic access channel, and a docking study pointed out that the C-2 position of the BT or BO nucleus was oriented toward the access channel. Here, we report the design, synthesis, and microbiological evaluation of C-2-alkyl BT and BO compounds. In both series, introduction of the alkyl chain maintained and in some cases improved the anti-Candida in vitro activity; however, there was not always a strict correlation between in vitro and in vivo activity for several compounds.
Das Benzothiazin (I) reagiert mit Oxalsäure‐ester (II) zum Diketo‐ester (III), aus dem mit Hydrazinen (IV) die Pyrazolo‐benzothiazine (V), mit Hydroxylamin über das Oxim (VIII) die Isoxazolo‐benzothiazine (IX) zugänglich sind.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
