Abstract
A new series of novel thiazole-based 8,9-dihydro-7 H -pyrimido[4,5- b ][1,4]diazepines 6a – g and 7a – g were obtained with high regioselectivity from the reaction of triamino- or tetraaminopyrimidines 4 and 5 with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds 3a – g based on 2,4-dichlorothiazol-5-carbaldehyde 1 . Twelve of the synthesized compounds were selected and tested by US National Cancer Institute (NCI) for their antitumor activity against 60 different human tumor cell lines. Compounds 7d and 7g showed important GI 50 ranges of 1.28–2.98 μM and 0.35–2.78 μM respectively under in vitro assays. In addition, 6a – g and 7a – g were tested for antifungal properties against the clinical important fungi Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans . Although these compounds showed moderate activities against C. albicans , the 2-amino derivatives 7a – g and mainly 7a and 7b , showed high activity against standardized and clinical isolates of C. neoformans with MIC 50 = 7.8–31.2 μg/mL, MIC 80 = 15.6–31.2 μg/mL and MIC 100 = 15.6–62.5 μg/mL. In addition, since both compounds were fungicide rather than fungistatic these thiazole-based 8,9-dihydro-7 H -pyrimido[4,5- b ][1,4]diazepines appear as good candidates for further development not only as antifungal but also as antitumor drugs. • New series of pyrimido[4,5- b ][1,4]diazepines were synthesized from caffeine. • All diazepines were obtained with high regioselectivity. • Compounds 7d and 7g showed important antitumor activity with GI 50 0.35–2.98 μM. • Antifungal activity was performed against C. albicans and C. neoformans . • Diazepines 7a and 7b exhibited high activity against clinical isolated C. neoformans .
