AB  - The substituent and solvent effect on intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) of twelve monocarbohydrazones (mCHs) were studied using experimental and theoretical methodology. The effects of specific and non-specific solvent-solute interactions on the UV-Vis absorption maxima shifts were evaluated using linear free energy relationships (LFERs) principles, i.e. using the Kamlet-Taft and Catalan models. Linear free energy relationships in the form of single substituent parameter equation (SSP) was used to analyze substituent effect on UV-Vis, NMR and pK(a) change. According to crystallographic data and quantum chemical calculations, the trans (E) form was found to be more stable. A photochromism of compounds with 2-hydroxyphenyl and 2-pyridylimino groups substituted at imine carbon atom results in E/Z isomerization due to creation of intermolecular hydrogen bond in E and Z form, respectively. Multiple stage mass spectrometry (MS-MSn) analysis was applied to define main fragmentation pathways. Furthermore, the experimental findings were interpreted with the aid of ab initio MP2/6-311 G(d,p) and time-dependent density functional (TD-DFT) methods. TD-DFT calculations were performed to quantify the efficiency of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) with the aid of the charge-transfer distance (DCT) and the amount of transferred charge (QCT) calculation. It was found that both substituents and solvents influence electron density shift i.e. extent of conjugation, and affect ICT character in the course of excitation.

AB  - The present study is focused on a series of newly synthesized 1-aryl-3-ethyl-3-methylsuccinimide derivatives, as potential anticonvulsants. The retention behavior of eleven succinimide derivatives was determined by using reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and reversed phase high performance thin layer chromatography (RP-HPTLC). The estimated retention behavior was correlated with partition (logP) and distribution coefficients (logD). These high correlations pointed out that the determined retention parameters (logK(0) and R-M(0)) can be considered chromatographic (anisotropic) lipophilicity of the studied succinimide derivatives. The structural properties, which dominantly affect the chromatographic lipophilicity, were determined as well. The significant correlations between the chromatographic lipophilicity and plasma protein binding (PPB), Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells permeability, volume of distribution (Vd) and absorption constant (Ka) indicate the strong influence of lipophilicity on pharmacokinetics of 1-aryl-3-ethyl-3-methylsuccinimide derivatives. These derivatives have also been tested applying Comprehensive Medicinal Chemistry (CMC) drug-like rules which confirmed their drug-like properties. Besides, their blood-brain penetration (BBB) ability has been estimated applying the set of Clark's rules and by using Pre-ADMET software. Regarding toxicity, it was predicted that only one compound from the set might have toxic effects by blocking the hERG potassium channel. The present study reveals which molecular features in the structure of novel succinimide derivatives could be crucial for their lipophilicity, and consequently for their pharmacokinetic properties. The results indicate that the newly synthesized series of succinimide derivatives should be further considered in design of novel anticonvulsants.

AB  - Numerous structurally different amides and imides including succinimide derivatives exhibit diverse bioactive potential. The development of new compounds requires rationalization in the design in order to provide structural changes that guarantee favorable physico-chemical properties, pharmacological activity and safety. In the present research, a comprehensive study with comparison of the chromatographic lipophilicity and other physico-chemical properties of five groups of 1-arylsuccinimide derivatives was conducted. The chemometric analysis of their physico-chemical properties was carried out by using unsupervised (hierarchical cluster analysis and principal component analysis) and supervised pattern recognition methods (linear discriminant analysis), while the correlations between the in silico molecular features and chromatographic lipophilicity were examined applying linear and non-linear Quantitative Structure-Retention Relationship (QSRR) approaches. The main aim of the conducted research was to determine similarities and dissimilarities among the studied 1-arylsuccinimides, to point out the molecular features which have significant influence on their lipophilicity, as well as to establish high-quality QSRR models which can be used in prediction of chromatographic lipophilicity of structurally similar 1-arylsuccinimides. This study is a continuation of analysis and determination of the physico-chemical properties of 1-arylsuccinimides which could be important guidelines in further in vitro and eventually in vivo studies of their biological potential.

AB  - In the present study, twelve new 1-aryl-3-ethyl-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-diones were synthesized and their structures were characterized by FT-IR, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. In the final step of synthetic rout, condensation between corresponding succinic acid and substituted anilines has been improved using the microwave irradiation. Significantly higher yields compared to conventional condensation have been observed. The preliminary biological results indicated that some of the synthesized compounds showed promising in vitro antifungal activities towards several test fungi. 1-(4-Bromophenyl)-3-ethyl-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione (8) exhibited significant in vitro inhibitory activities against broad spectra of fungus, and on the basis of obtained data, the investigated bromo derivative has to be observed as novel potential fungicide. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed in order to study the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the investigated molecules. In order to prediction of the chemical activity of the molecule, the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) map was analyzed for the optimized geometry of 1-phenyl-3-ethyl-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione (4) and 1-(4-bromophenyl)-3-ethyl-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione (8).

AB  - Due to the rise of microbial strains resistant to conventional therapies, there is an urgent need for finding the new antimicrobial chemotypes. Heterocyclic compounds such as thiocarbohydrazones (TCHs) are able to interact with many metalloenzymes essential for microbes, while sulfur atom increases lipophilicity which is generally positively correlated with potency. In this paper, we report antibacterial and antifungal activity of twenty-two TCHs toward eight bacterial and three fungal strains. Furthermore, three alignment independent 3D QSAR models based on descriptors derived from molecular interaction fields (MIFs) are developed in order to rationalize structure-activity relationships for activities of TCHs toward S. aureus, P. aeruginosa and C. albicans. Several structural fragments important for biological activity are recognized in each model, and structural modifications which could lead to increased potency are suggested. Designed structures will be synthesized accordingly and tested toward the same microbial strains in order to obtain more potent derivatives.

abstract = "Due to the rise of microbial strains resistant to conventional therapies, there is an urgent need for finding the new antimicrobial chemotypes. Heterocyclic compounds such as thiocarbohydrazones (TCHs) are able to interact with many metalloenzymes essential for microbes, while sulfur atom increases lipophilicity which is generally positively correlated with potency. In this paper, we report antibacterial and antifungal activity of twenty-two TCHs toward eight bacterial and three fungal strains. Furthermore, three alignment independent 3D QSAR models based on descriptors derived from molecular interaction fields (MIFs) are developed in order to rationalize structure-activity relationships for activities of TCHs toward S. aureus, P. aeruginosa and C. albicans. Several structural fragments important for biological activity are recognized in each model, and structural modifications which could lead to increased potency are suggested. Designed structures will be synthesized accordingly and tested toward the same microbial strains in order to obtain more potent derivatives.",

AB  - A series of succinimide derivatives were studied using the cyclic and square wave voltammetry. Density function theory was used in order to determinate which of the structural parameters influence the electrochemical activity. The quantum chemical calculations of the investigated succinimides were linked with the experimental electrochemical data and used to propose the oxidation mechanism. The most active among studied succinimides is 1,3-diphenylsuccinimide. The results obtained from the cyclic and square wave voltammetry and quantum chemical calculations indicate that the investigated compounds undergo oxidation by irreversible, diffusion controlled process including transfer of 1e(-) and 1 proton. The voltammetric and DFT results signify that the mechanism of electrochemical oxidation of all compounds involve the conversion of carbonyl-methyne-phenyl segment or methylene group in free radical. This conversion proceeds by the loss of one proton one electron process.

AB  - A series of ten 1-aryl-3-methylsuccinimides was synthesized and their solvatochromic properties were studied in a set of fifteen binary solvent mixtures. The solute-solvent interactions were analyzed on the basis of the linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) concept proposed by Kamlet and Taft. The electronic effect of the substituents on the UV-Vis absorption and NMR spectra was analyzed using the simple Hammett equation. Moreover, the B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, and M06-2X functionals using the 6-311G(d,p) basic set have been assessed in light of the position of experimental absorption maxima obtained for these compounds. The integration grid effects have also been evaluated. An interpretation of the substituent-effect transmission through the molecular skeleton and the nature of the HOMO and LUMO orbitals based on quantum-chemical calculations is given. The values of partial atomic charges from the atomic polar tenzors (APT), natural population analysis (NBO), and charges fit to the electrostatic potential using the B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, and M06-2X methods are produced and correlated with different experimental properties. In order to estimate the chemical activity of the molecule, the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) surface map is calculated for the optimized geometry of 1-phenyl-3-methylsuccinimide.

AB  - Design of a new drug entity is usually preceded by analysis of quantitative structure activity (properties) relationships, QSA(P)R. Six newly synthesized succinimide derivatives have been determined for (i) in silico physico-chemical descriptors, pharmacokinetic and toxicity predictors, (ii) in vitro biological activity on four different carcinoma cell lines and on normal fetal lung cells and (iii) lipophilicity on liquid chromatography. All compounds observed were predicted for good permeability and solubility, good oral absorption rate and moderate volume of distribution as well as for modest blood brain permeation, followed by acceptable observed toxicity. In silico determined lipophilicity, permeability through jejunum and aqueous solubility were correlated with experimentally obtained lipophilic constants (by use of high pressure liquid chromatography) and linear correlations were obtained. Absorption rate and volume of distribution were predicted by chromatographic lipophilicity measurements while permeation through blood bran barrier was predicted dominantly by molecular size defined with molecular weight. Five compounds have demonstrated antiproliferative activity toward cervix carcinoma HeLa cell lines; three were cytotoxic against breast carcinoma MCF-7 cells, while one inhibited proliferation of colon carcinoma HT 29 cell lines. Only one compound was cytotoxic toward normal cell lines, while other compounds were proven as safe. Antiproliferative potential against HeLa cells was described as exponential function of lipophilicity. Based on obtained results, lead compounds were selected.

AB  - A comparative study of antitumor activity of mono- and bis-quinoline based (thio) carbohydrazones was investigated by a series of tests on two human malignant cell lines: acute monocytic leukemia (THP-1) and pancreatic adenocarcinoma cancer stem cells (AsPC-1). Thiocarbohydrazones (TCHs) revealed superior pro-apoptotic activity over carbohydrazones (CHs) on both tested cell phenotypes, also displaying multi-target profile activities. Programmed cell death triggered by TCHs was partially caspase-dependent, mainly caspase-8 related. Activity against cancer stem cells (CSCs) was evaluated on 2D monolayers and 3D spheroidal models, where two out of three tested bis-TCHs successfully stimulated apoptosis accompanied by a reduction in size of treated spheres. Additionally, all bis-TCHs induced significant decrease in percentage of CD44-expressing AsPC-1 cells that indicate on their ability to induce reprogramming of CSC phenotype. Current results highly support further assessment of bis-TCHs in order to specify their specific targets in cancer cells and particularly in the CSCs subpopulation.

AB  - Co(III) complex with a 2-hydrazonylthiazole ligand was synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the inner sphere of the complex, two monoionic ligands are coordinated tridentately forming octahedral geometry around Co(III). Activity of the complex was investigated on MCF-7 breast cancer cell line, with cisplatin (CDDP) as a reference compound. Results showed that after 24-h incubation, Co(III) complex revealed stronger cytotoxic activity compared to CDDP. Treatment of MCF-7 3-D cell model with the complex at 10M concentration achieved complete suppression of spheroid growth in almost the same extent as at 100M. In combination treatments on MCF-7 spheroids, the complex acted synergistically with CDDP, while additive interaction type was achieved when the complex was applied together with paclitaxel.

AB  - A new Zn(II)-based potential chemotherapeutic agent was synthesized from the ligand 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde selenosemicarbazone (Hqasesc). Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the Zn(II) complex consists of a cation [Zn(Hqasesc)(2)](2+), two perchlorate anions and one ethanol solvent molecule. The interaction of calf thymus (CT) DNA and human serum albumin (HSA) with the Zn(II) complex was explored using absorption and emission spectral methods, and also has been supported by molecular docking studies. The complex has more affinity to minor DNA groove than major, with no significant intercalation. The HSA interaction studies of the complex revealed the quenching of the intrinsic fluorescence of the HSA through a static quenching mechanism. The antitumor activity of the ligand and the complex against pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell line (AsPC-1) and acute monocytic leukemia (THP-1) cells was evaluated. Both compounds are strong concentration-dependent apoptosis inducers in THP-1 cells. While Hqasesc in AsPC-1 cells induces apoptosis only at the highest concentration, treatment with the Zn complex shows a concentration-dependent apoptotic response, where the treated cells are arrested in the G1-to-S phase accompanied with extensive activation of caspase-8 and -9. These results indicate that the ligand and Zn(II) complex display cell phenotype specific activity.

AB  - Reversed-phase thin-layer chromatographic (RP TLC) retention coefficients for a newly designed series of N-phenyl-3-methyl succinimide derivatives, of a rationally expected anticonvusant activity, were determined as parameters of their lipophilicity. Basic pharmacokinetic descriptors of the agents were calculated in silico with the use of the established medicinal chemistry/drug design software. Highly significant, predictive relationships were found between the chromatographic retention constants and the bioactivity descriptors, which are assumed to account for drug absorption, distribution, elimination and toxicity (ADMETox) in humans. Among the agents investigated, the compounds with halogen substituent (Compounds nos. 9-13 in Fig. 1), were identified as the best drug candidates, because of their predicted proper pharmacokinetics, and have been selected for further research and development studies on new antiepileptic drugs. At the same time, among the congeners studied these can be indicated, which should not be rationally subjected to bioactivity tests.

AB  - Succinimide is a cycle imide of succinic acid that is present in numerous biologically active compounds including anticonvulsants, antitremor, anti-Parkinson's agents. This paper describes different ways of synthesis of succinimide derivatives, their physical properties and reactivity. Also, the most widely used succinimide anticonvulsants and the analysis of structure-activity relationships of anticonvulsant drugs in terms of lipophilicity and hydrogen bonding are presented here.

Mogu se, takođe, koristiti u tretiranju drugih cerebralnih oboljenja, kao na primer tremora, Parkinsonove bolesti, itd. U ovom radu su prikazani postupci dobijanja sukcinimida, koji se upotrebljavaju u medicini, kao i njihova struktura i fizičke i hemijske osobine.
