Herein, we describe the synthesis of new hybrids linked to 1,2,3- and 1,2,4-triazole units. Hybrids connected to a 1,2,3-triazole ring were synthesized using the well-known click reaction. The synthesis of the 1,2,4-triazole-based hybrids was carried out using 2-[(4-cyano-1-methyl(2-furyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroisoquinolin-3-yl)oxy]acetohydrazides as starting compounds.

The exploration of heterocyclic compounds and their fused analogs, featuring key pharmacophore fragments like pyridine, thiophene, pyrimidine, and triazine rings, is pivotal in medicinal chemistry. These compounds possess a wide array of biological activities, making them an intriguing area of study. The quest for new neurotropic drugs among derivatives of these heterocycles with pharmacophore groups remains a significant research challenge.

Article Synopsis
  • Pyridine derivatives are important in medicinal chemistry due to their ability to bind biological targets, prompting research to create new thioalkyl derivatives for potential drug development.
  • The synthesis of these new compounds utilized classical organic chemistry methods, and various biological tests were conducted to analyze their neurotropic and psychotropic effects, including anticonvulsant and sedative activities.
  • Results showed that several synthesized derivatives had high gastro-intestinal absorption, low toxicity, and significant psychotropic effects, with some compounds demonstrating anxiolytic activity up to four times greater than diazepam.

The synthesis of new original bicyclic pyridine-based hybrids linked to the 1,2,3-triazole unit was described via a click reaction. The anticonvulsant activity and some psychotropic properties of the new compounds were evaluated. The biological assays demonstrated that some of the studied compounds showed high anticonvulsant and psychotropic properties.

Background: Heterocyclic compounds and their fused analogs, which contain pharmacophore fragments such as pyridine, thiophene and pyrimidine rings, are of great interest due to their broad spectrum of biological activity. Chemical compounds containing two or more pharmacophore groups due to additional interactions with active receptor centers usually enhance biological activity and can even lead to a new type of activity. The search for new effective neurotropic drugs in the series of derivatives of heterocycles containing pharmacophore groups in organic, bioorganic and medical chemistry is a serious problem.

Background: Neurotic disturbances, anxiety, neurosis-like disorders, and stress situations are widespread. Benzodiazepine tranquillizers have been found to be among the most effective antianxiety drugs. The pharmacological action of benzodiazepines is due to their interaction with the supra-molecular membrane GABA-a-benzodiazepine receptor complex, linked to the Cl-ionophore.

8-Hydrazino derivatives of pyrano[3,4-]pyridines and derivatives of the new heterocyclic system 3-thioxopyrano[3,4-][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-]pyridines on the basis of methanesulfonates of pyrano[3,4-]pyridinium were synthesized by optimization of a previously used method. Derivatives of alkylsulfonyl pyrano[3,4-][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-]pyridines were also synthesized. All compounds were evaluated for their neurotropic activity.
