- Chemical Space Exploration around Thieno[3,2- d]pyrimidin-4(3 H)-one Scaffold Led to a Novel Class of Highly Active Clostridium difficile Inhibitors
-
Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is the leading cause of healthcare-associated infection in the United States. Therefore, development of novel treatments for CDI is a high priority. Toward this goal, we began in vitro screening of a structurally diverse in-house library of 67 compounds against two pathogenic C. difficile strains (ATCC BAA 1870 and ATCC 43255), which yielded a hit compound, 2-methyl-8-nitroquinazolin-4(3H)-one (2) with moderate potency (MIC = 312/156 μM). Optimization of 2 gave lead compound 6a (2-methyl-7-nitrothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one) with improved potency (MIC = 19/38 μM), selectivity over normal gut microflora, CC50s > 606 μM against mammalian cell lines, and acceptable stability in simulated gastric and intestinal fluid. Further optimization of 6a at C2-, N3-, C4-, and C7-positions resulted in a library of >50 compounds with MICs ranging from 3 to 800 μM against clinical isolates of C. difficile. Compound 8f (MIC = 3/6 μM) was identified as a promising lead for further optimization.

- Quinazolin-4(3H)-ones and 5,6-dihydropyrimidin-4(3H)-ones from β-aminoamides and orthoesters
-
Quinazolin-4(3H)-ones have been prepared in one step from 2-aminobenzamides and orthoesters in the presence of acetic acid. Simple 2-aminobenzamides were easily converted to the heterocycles by refluxing in absolute ethanol with 1.5 equivalents of the orthoester and 2 equivalents of acetic acid for 12–24 h. Ring-substituted and hindered 2-aminobenzamides as well as cases incorporating an additional basic nitrogen required pressure tube conditions with 3 equivalents each of the orthoester and acetic acid in ethanol at 110?C for 12–72 h. The reaction was tolerant towards functionality on the benzamide and a range of structures was accessible. Workup involved removal of the solvent under vacuum and either recrystallization from ethanol or trituration with ether-pentane. Several 5,6-dihydropyrimidin-4(3H)-ones were also prepared from 3-amino-2,2-dimethylpropionamide. All products were characterized by melting point, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and HRMS.

- PROCESS FOR PRODUCING PYRIMIDIN-4-ONE COMPOUND
-
A pyrimidin-4-one compound can be prepared in a high yield by reacting an aminoarylcarboxylic acid compound with an organic acid compound in the presence of a nitrogen atom-containing compound under relatively simple and moderate reaction conditions.
