Starting from 3-amino-5-(2-hydroxyphenyl) amino acid coupled triazoles 1a-e, new 3-(2hydroxyphenyl)-3H-imidazo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazol-6(5H)-one 2a,b, 3b,d, 6a and 3-N-arly(alkyl) amino acid coupled triazoles 4b,d, 7a,c,d,e have been synthesized as potential antileishmanial agents. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed using elemental and spectral analyses (FT-IR, 1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR and MS). The in vitro antileishmanial potency of the synthesized compounds was evaluated compared to Amphotericin B deoxycholate and miltefosine as lead references. Compounds 2b, 7d and 7e showed perfect IC50 values corresponding to amphotericin B and more patent than miltefosine against L. aethiopica promastigotes.
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.
