We developed a convenient synthetic route to 3-alkylated 2-phenyl-4-quinolone derivatives (4a-h and 5a-c), which were expected to retain antitumor activity. A series of 2,3-dihydro-2-hydroxy-2-phenyl-4-quinolones (3a-h) was synthesized through dehydration, dealcoholation and hydration using acid-catalyzed one-pot reaction from anilines and ethyl benzoylacetates. 3-Methyl (or 3,3-dimethyl)-2-phenyl-4-quinolone derivatives 4 and 5 were synthesized from 3a-h through the methylation using methyl iodide. Formation of quinolone nucleus was undertaken with p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TSA) at $90{\sim}110^{\circ}C$ in toluene for 3${\sim}$7.5 hr over the Dean-Stark apparatus. The key intermediates in these preparations are ${\beta}$-ketoesters 2a-h, which can be readily obtained from the corresponding anilines 1a-e by reaction with ethyl bezoylacetates.

Bioisostere approach has been shown to be useful to augment potency or to modify certain physiological properties of a lead compound. Based upon well documented bioisosterism, an isosteric replacement of benzene ring of 4-hydroxy-2-quinolone compound (L-695902) with a thiophene moiety was carried out to prepare the title compounds, 4-hydroxy-6-oxo-6,7-dihydro-thieno[2,3-b] pyrimidines 15. The resulting bioisosteric compounds 15 were evaluated for their antagonistic activity (birding assay) for NMDA receptor glycine site.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa는 기회 감염성 병원균으로, Cystic fibrosis, 미생물 감염성 각막염,화상 부위 2차 감염 등의 다양한 질병을 초래한다. 정족수 인식(쿼럼 센싱)이라고도 알려져 있는 세포간 신호전달 기전이 이러한 감염에서 중요한 역할을 하기 때문에 P. aeruginosa의 정족수 인식 시스템들이 집중적으로 연구되어 왔다. P. aeruginosa의 정족수 인식 시스템들을 소개하는 많은 문헌들이 주로 두 개의 주요 acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) 계열 정족수 신호물질들인 N-3-oxododecanoyl homoserine lactone (3OC12)과 N-butanoyl homoserine lactone (C4)에 초점을 맞추어 설명하고 있지만, 실제로는 몇 가지 새로운 신호물질들이 발견되어져 왔고, 그들이 P. aeruginosa의 병독성과 신호전달에 중요한 역할을 할 수 있음이 제안되어져 왔다. 그 중 하나가 PQS(Pseudomonas quinolone signal; 2-heptyl-3-hydroxy-4-quinolone)인데, 이 물질은 현재 P. aeruginosa의 잘 규명된 주요 신호물질로 인식되고 있다. 이에 더하여, 최근의 연구들은 또 다른 가능성 있는 P. aeruginosa신호물질들을 제안해 왔는데, diketopiperazines (DKPs)과 pyocyanin이 그들이다. DKPs는 환형 dipeptide로써 이를 구성하는 아미노산의 종류에 따라 다양한 구조를 가진다. P. aeruginosa의 배양액에서 검출된 몇몇 DKPs들이 기존에는 AHL에만 특이적으로 반응한다고 알려졌던 Vibrio 랸�N갸 LuxR biosensor를 활성화 시킬 수 있다는 것이 발견되어 새로운 신호물질로 제안되었다. Pyocyanin (1-hydroxy-5-methyl-phenazine)은 P. aeruginosa가 생산하는 여러 phenazine 화합물들 중의 하나로써, 특징적인 청록색을 띄는 산화-환원 활성물질이다. 이 물질도 정체 성장기 동안 일부 정족수 인식의 조절을 받는 유전자들의 발현을 증가시키는 최종 신호 인자로 최근 제안되었으며, 그 신호는 또 다른 전사 조절 인자인 SoxR에 의해 매개된다고 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 P. aeruginosa에서 새롭게 발견, 제안되고 있는 이들 신호 전달 물질들에 대해 자세히 다루어 보기로 한다.

A number of 7-[(3-methylthio or methylthiomethyl)pyrrolidiny]qui nolone-3-carboxylic acids were synthesized by condensation of 7-fluoro substituted quinolone-3-carboxylic acid with 3-methylthiopyrrolidine or 3-methylthiomet hylpyrrolidne. 3-Methylthiopyrrolidine or 3-methylthio-methylpyrrolidine which was prepared from N-benzyl-3-hydroxy pyrrolidine or 3-hydroxymethylpyrrolidine. The in vitro antimicrobial activity of them were tested against twenty species of Gram-positive or Gram-negative microorganisms. It showed remarkable antibacterial activity, particularly against Gram-positive microorganisms. Among those 1-cyclopropyl-6,8-difluoro-7-(3-methylthiomethy-lpyrrolidinyl)-1,4-d ihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid(7d) and 1-cyclopropyl-6- fluoro-8-chloro-7-(3-methylthiomethyl pyrrolidinyl)-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid (7f) showed the most potent in vitro antibacterial activity.

An efficient method for construction of 2-arylfiirans has been developed by ceric(IV) ammonium nitratemediated oxidative cycloaddition of cyclic and acyclic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds to several alkynes. Reactions of 1,3-cyclohexanedione, 1,3-cyclopentanedione, and 2,4-pentanedione with several alkynes furnish 2-arylfurans in 26-75% yields. Extension of this technology to more complex 4-hydroxy-2-quinolone and 3-hydroxy-lH-phenalen-l-one with phenylacetylene also affords furoquinolinone and ftirophenalenone derivative in moderate yields. Reaction of 4-hydroxycoumarins with phenylacetylene give linear and angular furocoumarin derivatives as a mixture of regioisomer in good yields. The mechanistic pathway for the formation of 2-arylfurans has been also described.

New asymmetric dimers, N,N'-dialkyl-4'-hydroxy-4-oxo-2,2',3,3'-tetrahydro-2,2'-diphenyl-4,4'-quinolones 3a-f were synthesized through the dehydration and dea1coholation of N-alkylanilines and ethyl benzoylacetate. Dimers 3a-f were identified by NMR, IR and GC-MS. A series of dimer 3a-f has been synthesized using acid-catalyzed one-pot reaction that involved the condensation, cyc1ization and dimerization. Similarly, the 6,6'-methoxy (or 7,7'-methoxy) substituted dimers were prepared from N-alkyl-meta-(or para)-anisidines. Formation of dimers was undertaken with p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TSA) at 90∼11$0^{\circ}C$ in toluene for 2∼6 hours over the Dean-Stark apparatus.

A series of 8-alkoxy-4,5-dihydro-[1,2,4]triazole[4,3-a]quinoline-1-one derivatives were synthesized using 7-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-quinolone as the starting material. Their anticonvulsant activities were evaluated by the maximal electroshock test (MES) and the subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole test (sc-PTZ), and their neurotoxicities were measured by the rotarod neurotoxicity test (Tox). The tests demonstrated that 8-hexyloxy-4,5-dihydro-[1.2.4]triazole[4.3-a]quinoline-1-one (4e) and 8-heptyloxy-4,5-dihydro-[1,2,4]triazole[4, 3-a]quinoline-1-one (4f) were the most potent anticonvulsants, with 4e having $ED_{50}$ values of 17.17 mg/kg and 24.55 mg/kg and protective index ($PI=TD_{50}/ED_{50}$) values of 41.9 and 29.3 in the MES and sc-PTZ tests, respectively, and 4f having $ED_{50}$ values of 19.7 mg/kg and 21.2 mg/kg and PI values of 36.5 and 33.9 in the MES and sc-PTZ tests, respectively. The PI values of 4e and 4f were many fold better than that of the marketed drugs phenytoin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital and valproate, which have PI values in the range of 1.6-8.1 in the MES test and <0.22-5.2 in the sc-PTZ test. Structure-activity relationships were also discussed.
