Synthesis, Cytotoxicity, and Antileishmanial Activity of N,N'-Disubstituted Ethylenediamine and Imidazolidine Derivatives

Abstract: This paper describes the preparation of N,N'-disubstituted ethylenediamine and imidazolidine derivatives and their in vitro biological activities against Leishmania species. Of the nine synthesized compounds, five displayed a good activity in both L. amazonensis and L. major promastigotes. The compounds 1,2-Bis(p-methoxybenzyl)ethylenediamine (4) and 1,3-Bis(p-methoxybenzyl)imidazolidines (5) showed the best activity on intracellular amastigotes, with IC50 values of 2.0 and 9.4 μ/mL, respectively. In addition,… Show more

“…In this regard Amberlyst 15 possesses properties such as non-hazardous, chemical and physical stability and can be recycled and used over a prolonged period. It catalyzes a wide variety of reactions in heterogeneous phase [24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36], and recently was used for the synthesis of bis (heterocyclyl) methane derivatives from heteroaryl species and carbonyl substrates [37].…”

“…These compounds were evaluated against 60 human cell lines derived from seven clinically isolated cancer types (lung, colon, melanoma, renal, ovarian, brain and leukemia) according to a standard protocol (conducted at the National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, MD, USA) with the sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay [21][22][23][24]. The evaluated compounds 1 y 2 showed antitumor activity for the leukemia cells lines CCRF-CEM, K-562, MOLT-4 and RPMI 8226; for non-small cell lung cancer HOP-92, NCI-H23; colon cancer HCC-2998, HCT-15, SW-620; melanoma LOX IMVI cell line, IGROV1 ovarian cancer and renal cancer A486 and ACHN.…”

“…Concerning the amastigotes in vitro model, inflammatory macrophages were obtained from BALB ⁄ c mice previously inoculated intraperitoneally with 2 mL of 3% thioglycollate medium (Sigma) (22,23). Briefly, peritoneal macrophages were plated at 2 · 10 6 cells ⁄ mL on coverslips (13 mm diameter) previously arranged in a 24-well plate in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% inactivated FBS and allowed to adhere for 24 h at 37°C in 5% CO 2 .…”

“…In a recent work our research group performed biological evaluation of hexahydropyrimidines compounds, which form an interesting type of aliphatic azaheterocycle [ 1 , 2 ]. Heterocyclic compounds are of great importance in medicinal chemistry, as they are used as potential targets against several bacterial and parasitic pathogens [ 3 , 4 ].…”
