    Abstract 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) is a widely known and frequently used chelating agent, and the pharmacological effects of the core molecule and its derivatives have been studied since the 19th century. There are several synthetic methods to modify this core. The Mannich reaction is one of the most easily implementable examples, which requires mild reaction conditions and simple chemical reagents. The three components of the Mannich reaction are a primary or secondary amine, an aldehyde and a compound having a hydrogen with pronounced activity. In the modified Mannich reaction, naphthol or a nitrogen-containing naphthol analogue (e.g., 8-hydroxyquinoline) is utilised as the active hydrogen provider compound, thus affording the formation of aminoalkylated products. The amine component can be ammonia and primary or secondary amines. The aldehyde component is highly variable, including aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes. Based on the pharmacological relevance of aminomethylated 8-hydroxyquinolines, this review summarises their syntheses via the modified Mannich reaction starting from 8-hydroxyquinoline, formaldehyde and various amines.

    Abstract The central nervous system (CNS) is the final frontier in drug delivery because of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which poses significant barriers to the access of most drugs to their targets. Kynurenic acid (KYNA), a tryptophan (Trp) metabolite, plays an important role in behavioral functions, and abnormal KYNA levels have been observed in neuropsychiatric conditions. The current challenge lies in delivering KYNA to the CNS owing to its polar side chain. Recently, C-3 side chain-modified KYNA analogs have been shown to cross the BBB; however, it is unclear whether they retain the biological functions of the parent molecule. This study examined the impact of KYNA analogs, specifically, SZR-72, SZR-104, and the newly developed SZRG-21, on behavior. The analogs were administered intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.), and their effects on the motor domain were compared with those of KYNA. Specifically, open-field (OF) and rotarod (RR) tests were employed to assess motor activity and skills. SZR-104 increased horizontal exploratory activity in the OF test at a dose of 0.04 μmol/4 μL, while SZR-72 decreased vertical activity at doses of 0.04 and 0.1 μmol/4 μL. In the RR test, however, neither KYNA nor its analogs showed any significant differences in motor skills at either dose. Side chain modification affects affective motor performance and exploratory behavior, as the results show for the first time. In this study, we showed that KYNA analogs alter emotional components such as motor-associated curiosity and emotions. Consequently, drug design necessitates the development of precise strategies to traverse the BBB while paying close attention to modifications in their effects on behavior.

    Abstract The synthesis of kynurenic acid derivatives with potential biological effect was investigated and optimized for one-batch, two-step microwave-assisted reactions. Utilizing both chemically and biologically representative non-, methyl-, methoxy-, and chlorosubstituted aniline derivatives, in catalyst-free conditions, syntheses of seven kynurenic acid derivatives were achieved in a time frame of 2-3.5 h. In place of halogenated reaction media, tuneable green solvents were introduced for each analogue. The potential of green solvent mixtures to replace traditional solvents and to alter the regioisomeric ratio regarding the Conrad-Limpach method was highlighted. The advantages of the fast, eco-friendly, inexpensive analytic technique of TLC densitometry were emphasized for reaction monitoring and conversion determination in comparison to quantitative NMR. Moreover, the developed 2-3.5 h syntheses were scaled-up to achieve gram-scale products of KYNA derivatives, without altering the reaction time in the halogenated solvent DCB and more importantly in its green substitutes.

    Abstract Kynurenic acid (KYNA) is an endogenous neuroprotective agent of increasing importance. Several derivatives have already been synthesized, bearing an abundance of functional groups attached to the main skeleton in different positions. Several of these compounds have already been tested in biological evaluations, with several of them targeting the same receptors and biological effects as KYNA. However, these modified compounds build upon the unmodified KYNA skeleton leaving a possible route for the synthesis of new, potentially neuroprotective derivatives with heteroatom-containing ring systems. The aim of this review is to summarize the syntheses of KYNA derivatives with altered skeletons and to pinpoint an appealing transformation for future medicinal lead molecules.

    Abstract Background/aim: Indole skeleton has become a significant tool in the field of anticancer and antibacterial therapeutic strategies. The modified aza-Friedel-Crafts reaction by direct coupling of different cyclic imines and indole derivatives has been explored. To investigate the scope and limitations of the reaction and observe the effect of structural modifications, our aim was to resynthesize selected compounds as well as prepare new derivatives starting from 6,7-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline, (4aR,8aR)-4a,5,6,7,8,8a-hexahydroquinoxalin-2(1H)-one and 7-azaindole. Our further aim was the systematic biological evaluation of selected C-3-coupled indole and azaindole derivatives in favour of having a preliminary overview about the structure-activity relationships.
    Materials and methods: The synthesis and resynthesis of selected compounds were accomplished by extension of aza-Friedel-Crafts reaction. The products have been tested on bacteria and cancer cells.
    Results: The most significant efflux pump inhibiting (EPI) activity was observed in the case of 6,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridine coupled indole derivative. The reaction of 6,7-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline with 7-azaindole resulted in the most potent biofilm inhibitor product. Applying indole and 4,9-dihydro-3H-β-carboline, 6,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridine led to the formation of a product with the highest anticancer activity. 6,7-Dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline skeleton and indole as an electron-rich aromatic compound have been found to be effective in the inhibition of ABCB1.
    Conclusion: The compounds presented in the study were investigated regarding different aspects of antibacterial and anticancer activities. Accordingly, some compounds were found to have antibacterial effect on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus strains, certain C-3-coupled derivatives showed toxicity on sensitive and ABCB1 efflux pump expressing colon adenocarcinoma and a normal, non-cancerous fibroblast cell lines.

    Abstract KYNAs, a compound with endogenous neuroprotective functions and an indole that is a building block of many biologically active compounds, such as a variety of neurotransmitters, are reacted in a transformation building upon Mannich bases. The reaction yields triarylmethane derivatives containing two biologically potent skeletons, and it may contribute to the synthesis of new, specialised neuroprotective compounds. The synthesis has been investigated via two procedures and the results were compared to those of previous studies. A possible alternative reaction route through acid catalysis has been established.
