- Design, synthesis, and bioevaluation of a novel class of (E)-4-oxo-crotonamide derivatives as potent antituberculosis agents
-
A series of novel (E)-4-oxo-2-crotonamide derivatives were designed and synthesized to find potent antituberculosis agents. All the target compounds were evaluated for their in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv(MTB). Results reveal that 4-phenyl moiety at part A and short methyl group at part C were found to be favorable. Most of the derivatives displayed promising activity against MTB with MIC ranging from 0.125 to 4 μg/mL. Especially, compound IIIa16 was found to have the best activity with MIC of 0.125 μg/mL against MTB and with MIC in the range of 0.05–0.48 μg/mL against drug-resistant clinical MTB isolates.

- Substituted 4-oxo-crotonic acid derivatives as a new class of protein kinase B (PknB) inhibitors: synthesis and SAR study
-
Protein kinase B (PknB) is an essential serine/threonine protein kinase required for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) cell division and cell-wall biosynthesis. A high throughput screen using PknB identified a (E)-4-oxo-crotonic acid inhibitor, named YH-8, which was used as a scaffold for SAR investigations. A significant improvement in enzyme affinity was achieved. The results indicated that the α,β-unsaturated ketone scaffold and “trans-” configuration are essential for the activity against PknB. And compounds with an aryl group, especially with electron-withdrawing substituents on benzene ring, exhibited four fold potency than that of YH-8.

- Gastro-protecting activity
-
Diseases and ailments accompanied by gastric and gastroduodenal lesions treated by administering a compound of the formula (I) STR1 in which R represents hydrogen or alkyl containing 1 to 5 carbon atoms and R1 and R2, identical or different, both represent alkoxy containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms, or both represent halogen, or R1 represents hydrogen and R2 represents halogen, nitro or trifluoromethyl, or R1 and R2 form a methylenedioxy group at adjacent carbon atoms, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, particularly alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, or amine salts of said acid.
