Design and Synthesis of 2-Nitroimidazole-1,2,3-triazole Sulfonamide Hybrids as Potent and Selective Anti-Trypanosomatid Agents.

A series of 2-nitroimidazole-1,2,3-triazole sulfonamide hybrid analogs were designed using medicinal chemistry approaches, such as bioisosterism, molecular hybridization, Topliss tree decision, and Craig plot. A total of 24 compounds were synthesized via click chemistry in satisfactory yields. Overall, analogs 15 a-x exhibited relevant in vitro anti-trypanosomatid activity against amastigote forms of T.

Design and Synthesis of Novel 3-Nitro-1-1,2,4-triazole-1,2,3-triazole-1,4-disubstituted Analogs as Promising Antitrypanosomatid Agents: Evaluation of In Vitro Activity against Chagas Disease and Leishmaniasis.

A series of 28 compounds, 3-nitro-1-1,2,4-triazole, were synthesized by click-chemistry with diverse substitution patterns using medicinal chemistry approaches, such as bioisosterism, Craig-plot, and the Topliss set with excellent yields. Overall, the analogs demonstrated relevant in vitro antitrypanosomatid activity. Analog (R = 4-OCF-Ph, IC = 0.

Design, synthesis and antitrypanosomatid activity of 2-nitroimidazole-3,5-disubstituted isoxazole compounds based on benznidazole.

Chagas disease and leishmaniasis are neglected diseases of high priority as a public health problem. Pharmacotherapy is based on the administration of a few drugs, which exhibit hazardous adverse effects and toxicity to the patients. Thus, the search for new antitrypanosomatid drugs is imperative to overcome the limitations of the treatments.

Green Synthesis of Molecules for the Treatment of Neglected Diseases.

Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) affect mainly poor and marginalized populations of tropical and subtropical areas in 150 countries. Many of the chemical processes involved in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are highly polluting and inefficient, both in terms of materials and energy-consuming. In this review, we present the green protocols developed in the last 10 years to access new small molecules with potential applications in the treatment of leishmania, tuberculosis, malaria, and Chagas disease.
