Synthesis, antimicrobial, and antiviral activities of some new 5-sulphonamido-8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives.

A series of fused pyranopyrazole and pyranoimidazole, namely 5-(3,6-diamino-4-aryl-5-carbonitrile-pyrano(2,3-c)pyrazol-2-yl)sulphonyl-8-hydroxyquinolines (5a-e), 5-(6-amino-4-aryl-5-carbonitrile-pyrano(2,3-c)pyrazol-3-yl)sulphonamido-8-hydroxyquinolines (6a-e), 5-(2-thioxo-4-aryl-5-carbonitrile-6-amino-pyrano(2,3-d)imidazol-2-yl)sulphonyl-8-hydroxyquinolines (10a-e), and 5-(2-oxo-4-aryl-5-carbonitrile-6-amino-pyrano(2,3-d)imidazol-2-yl) sulphonyl-8-hydroxyquinolines (11a-e), have been prepared via condensation of some arylidine malononitriles with 5-sulphonamido-8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives 3, 4, 8 and 9. All the synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities, and most of the tested compounds showed potent inhibition growth activity towards Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gramnegative bacteria). Furthermore, six selected compounds were tested for their antiviral activity against avian paramyxovirus type1 (APMV-1) and laryngotracheitis virus (LTV), and the results showed that a concentration range of 3-4 μg per mL of compounds 2, 3, and 4 showed marked viral inhibitory activity for APMV-1 of 5000 tissue culture infected dose fifty (TCID(50)) and LTV of 500 TCID(50) in Vero cell cultures based on their cytopathic effect.
