Síntese e avaliação farmacológica de 7-amino-espiro[cromeno[4,3-b]quinolina-6,1’-cicloalcanos] e derivados

Abstract

The present thesis describes the synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of new tacrine structural analogues, as well as N-derivation reactions and C-C and C-N coupling on these compounds. By this way, a series of 7-amino-spiro[chromeno[4,3-b]quinolone-6,1’-cycloalkanes], where [cycloalkanes = cyclopentane, cyclohexane, cycloheptane, 2-methyl-, 3-methyl-, 4-methyl-, and 4-t-butyl-cyclohexane] were synthesized with yields of 30 – 65 % through a cyclocondensation between 2-amino-benzonitriles and seven exemples of spiro[chromano-2,1’-cycloalkan]-4-ones, using AlCl3 as catalyst, in a solventless conventional thermal heating. Later, aiming at the study of the influence of chlorine and bromine as substituents in the biologic activity of these systems, and the possibility of insertion of new groups using one bromine substituted compound in coupling reactions, this methodology was extended to obtain halo substituted 7-amino-spiro[chromeno[4.3-b]quinolone-6,1’-cycloalkanes]. Subsequently, theses spirochromeno-quinolines (tacrine hybrids) where evaluated for they AChE and BChE in vitro activities as well as complementary molecular docking studies. Both results for these new tacrine analogues were correlated with their structural characteristics for these compounds. The spirochromeno-quinolines were also evaluated for they cytotoxicity using healthy human leukocytes. In the sequence, N-derivation reactions in 7-amino-spiro[chromeno[4,3-b]quinolone-6,1’-cycloalkanes] were made, allowing the insertion of a pyrrole heterocycles by Clauson-Kass reaction, with yields of 52-78 %. These new compounds were evaluated for they antitumor and antimicrobial activities. Lastly, the C-C and C-N coupling reactions employing sonogashira, Suzuki-Myaura and Buchwald-Hartwig techniques for the 7-amino-9-bromo-spiro[chromeno[4,3-b]quinolone-6,1’cyclohexane] furnished products of future interest in a synthetic and biologic points of view.
