(In English) Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis Author: Nechirwan Abdalrahman Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. PharmDr. Jan Zitko, Ph.D. Title: Design, synthesis, and evaluation of heterocyclic compounds with potential antimicrobial activity VI Despite the existence of a well-established treatment regimens, tuberculosis (TB) continues to be the most leading cause of death by a single microorganism, as reported by WHO. One of the reasons behind treatment failure in completely eradicating this infection is drug resistance. Novel 3-(phenylureido)pyrazine-2-carboxamide derivatives, refer to figure below, were synthesized by reacting 3-chloropyrazine-2-carboxamide with ammonia to produce 3- aminopyrazine-2-carboxamide as an intermediate building block, followed by reacting with various substituted phenyl isocyanates using a microwave reactor. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for in vitro activity against various mycobacterial strains, where most active ones among them showed moderate to low activities; 4-tertiary butyl (MIC 62.5 µg/mL), 4-NO2 (MIC 62.5 µg/mL), 4-Bromo (MIC 250 µg/mL), 4-Cl (MIC 250 µg/mL), 2-F (MIC 250 µg/mL), and non-substituted (MIC 500 µg/mL). As a complementary study in silico, the synthesized...

(English) Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis Thesis title: Design, synthesis and evaluation of heterocyclic compounds with potential antimicrobial activity IV Candidate: Amirhossein Fekri Supervisor: doc. PharmDr. Jan Zitko, Ph.D. Consultant: Mgr. Vinod S. K. Pallabothula Tuberculosis has remained one of the deadliest infectious diseases worldwide caused by a single infectious agent, the rapid growth of resistance to anti-tubercular drugs hinders the successful control and treatment of TB worldwide, which challenges the scientific community to develop new drugs to improve currently available treatment. This diploma thesis represents the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of two series of compounds including cyclized (pyrazine- oxazinone) and carboxamide derivatives as potentially active antimycobacterial agents sharing a pyrazine core as common structural features that could potentially target mycobacterial aspartate decarboxylase (PanD) and prolyl-tRNA synthetase (mtProRS), respectively. Synthesis of final compounds was achieved through individual reaction steps involving acylation of methyl 3-aminopyrazine-2-carboxylate for preparation of a common intermediate which in turn was used for the...

Design, synthesis and evaluation of heterocyclic compounds with potential antimicrobial activity I
Brányik, Michal ; Zitko, Jan (advisor) ; Demuth, Jiří (referee)
Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis Title of the thesis: Design, synthesis and evaluation of heterocyclic compounds with potential antimicrobial activity I Author: Michal Brányik Supervisor: doc. PharmDr. Jan Zitko, Ph.D. Consultant: PharmDr. Martin Juhás, Ph.D. Antimicrobial resistance is an ever-growing problem that occurs worldwide. Many bacterial strains develop the ability to resist the otherwise efficient substances, thus posing a serious threat for the future. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the source of tuberculosis, is no exception. Given that it is the leading cause of death due to a single pathogen, many efforts have been put into finding new active compounds. The substances synthesized as a part of this thesis are based on previously prepared substances with potential antimicrobial activity. The basic structure consists of 2-aminooxazole or 2-aminothiazole and substituted pyridine or pyrazine carboxamides. The structures were confirmed by the 1 H and 13 C NMR spectra, IR spectra and mass spectrometry. All the substances were tested for in vitro activity against eight bacterial strains (four gram-positive and four gram-negative) as well as eight fungal strains (four yeast and four fungi). We also...

Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis Thesis title: Design, synthesis and evaluation of pyridine derivatives as potential antimicrobial compounds Author: Andrea Bachtíková Thesis supervisor: doc. PharmDr. Jan Zitko, Ph.D. Consultant: PharmDr. Martin Juhás Tuberculosis is a global problem even today. It is the second most common cause of death from infectious diseases according to the WHO and resistance to common antituberculosis drugs, which have been used in therapy for decades, increases. These facts are the main reasons why research into new potential drugs is needed. This thesis presents design, synthesis and evaluation of antimicrobial properties of a series of substituted N-oxazolyl and N-thiazolyl carboxamides of different pyridinecarboxylic acids. Final compounds were characterized by 1 H and 13 C-NMR spectroscopy, IR spectra, melting point and HRMS (High resolution mass spectrometry). Obtained compounds were tested for in vitro activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv, M. tuberculosis H37Ra and four other clinically less important mycobacterial strains. In addition, compounds were tested for antibacterial activity against four G+ and four G- bacterial strains, antifungal activity against yeasts and fungi,...

Suchánková, Eliška ; Zitko, Jan (advisor) ; Nováková, Veronika (referee)
SYNTHESIS AND EVALUATION OF N-PYRIDYLBENZAMIDES AS POTENTIAL ANTIMICROBIAL COMPOUNDS Eliška Suchánková Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Charles University, Czech Republic The derivatives of N-pyridylbenzamide were designed and synthesized to be in vitro tested for antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra, M. smegmatis, M. aurum and in vitro cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells. These compounds are pyridinyl analogues of previously prepared N-pyrazinylbenzamides that have shown a significant in vitro antimycobacterial activity. The title compounds were synthesized by acylation of aminopyridine or chloropyridine-2-amine by selected benzoyl chlorides. Final compounds were described by elementary analysis, melting point, 1 H and 13 C spectra and IR spectroscopy. Generally, prepared compounds possess lower antimycobacterial activity than previously tested N-pyrazinylbenzamides. However, there are some cases, in which the derivatives of pyridine were more effective compared to the derivatives of pyrazine; mainly against M. smegmatis. The best antimycobacterial activity was proved for derivatives of 2-amino-6-chloropyridine and substituted benzoyl chloride, corresponding with higher lipophilicity of these compounds;...

Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis Candidate: Lucie Kučerová Supervisor: doc. PharmDr. Jan Zitko, Ph.D. Consultant: PharmDr. Martin Juhás Title of diploma thesis: Design, synthesis and evaluation of pyrazinamide derivatives as potential antimicrobial compounds II Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and is currently one of the most common causes of death from an infectious disease. Treatment of tuberculosis is long-term, combined and controlled to prevent resistance. Resistance is very serious and therefore treatment is always performed with more antituberculars at the same time. Finding new drugs and improving existing ones is a constant part of research. In the theoretical part I tried to summarize information about tuberculosis, its causative agent, diagnostics, possible prevention and treatment strategy. I have described the most commonly used antituberculars, especially the first- line antituberculars - pyrazinamide, from which the derivatives synthesized in my work are based. In the experimental part I described the procedures and reactions used for synthesis of the new compounds, which were formed by combining pyrazinamide with various amino acids. In this...

Pyrazinamide derivatives as potential antimicrobial compounds
Čečetková, Martina ; Zitko, Jan (advisor) ; Kučerová, Marta (referee)
Charles University, Pharmaceutical Faculty in Hradec Králové Department: Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical analysis Candidate: Martina Čečetková Supervisor: PharmDr. Jan Zitko, Ph.D. Title of Diploma Thesis: Pyrazinamide derivatives as potential antimicrobial compounds Even in 21st century, tuberculosis still remains a serious and global health threat. Tuberculosis is one of the 10 most common causes of death, the most burdened are developing countries, but this disease infects up to 1/3 of population worldwide. Due to ineffective treatment of tuberculosis in developing countries, the prevalence of tuberculosis which does not respond to standard treatment is increasing. It is necessary to develop new drugs effective against multidrug-resistant tuberculosis and prevent further spread of the disease. The design of final structures is based on previously synthesized molecule 6- chloro-N-(4-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-2-yl)pyrazine-2-carboxamide, which structure comes from first line antitubercular pyrazinamide (PZA) and 4-arylthiazol-2-amine scaffold with formerly identified antimycobacterial activity. This starting compound exhibits high activity against M. tuberculosis described by MIC = 0,78 µg/mL and low cytotoxicity. The object of study was to determine effect of substitution...

Derivatives of 5-alkylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid as potential anti-infectives
Halířová, Martina ; Zitko, Jan (advisor) ; Kučerová, Marta (referee)
DERIVATIVES OF 5-ALKYLPYRAZINE-2-CARBOXYLIC ACID AS POTENTIAL ANTI-INFECTIVES HALÍŘOVÁ MARTINA Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Drug Analysis, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Charles University, Czech Republic In our previous study, we have demonstrated that 5-alkylamino-N- phenylpyrazine-2-carboxamides with longer alkyl chain (C5-C8) exerted micromolar growth inhibition activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv. We speculated that the long alkylamino chain could facilitate the penetration of lipophilic mycobacterial cell envelope. To test this hypothesis, we performed the amino to methylene isosteric exchange and designed a series of 5-alkyl-N-phenylpyrazine-2-carboxamides. 5- Alkylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acids (5-Ak-POA) were prepared by homolytic alkylation of commercially available pyrazine-2-carbonitrile by respective alkanoic acid, followed by hydrolysis of the carbonitrile group. Final derivatives were prepared by CDI mediated coupling of 5-Ak-POA with corresponding aniline at RT. Final compounds were described by melting point, elementary analysis, IR spectroscopy and 1 H, 13 C NMR. Then they were tested in vitro for antimycobacterial activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv and several non-tuberculous mycobacterial strains. Several compounds exerted MIC of 3.13-6.25 µg mL-1 ....
