9-Anilinoacridine

With respect to heavier lanthanide ions such as Ybm, 15-crown-5 has the most adequate cavity size (Btinzli and Pilloud, 1989) and Korovin has fitted this crown ether with an anili-noacridine chromophore which displays cytostatic and/or antiviral activity. If anilinoacridines alone, bearing a hydroxyl or a carboxylic acid substituent in ortho, meta, or para position (fig. 23), are reacted with ytterbium trinitrate, they yield 1 1 complexes with the ortho- and...

Structuie-acdvity relationship studies with mitonafide have revealed that the compound inhibits both nuclear and mitochondrial topoisomerase of Leishmania with preferential taiget-ing of the mitochondrial enzyme over the nuclear enzyme. Anilinoacridines have recently been found to possess andparasidc activity towards Leishmania, Trypanosoma and Plasmodium species. These compounds have been shown to induce protein associated DNA lesions in L. chagasi promastigotes. Linearization of kinteoplast DNA minicirdes have also been repotted in parasites treated with anilinoacridines at similar concentrations. Members of the 9-anilinoacridine topoisomerase II inhibitors have also been shown to inhibit growth of L. major promast otes and amastigotes. 9-aminoacridines, that are reported topoisomerase II inhibitors and structurally related to the antileishmanial compound quinacrine and chlorpro-mazine, have shown anti leishmanial activity at concentrations in the range of 10-20 pM. ...

Eq. 180 was derived for the antitumor activities of 9-anilinoacridines (43) [789]. The coefficients of the n terms indicate that activities fall off more rapidly for the hydrophilic analogs as the parent compound has a log P value of about 4.8, the lipophilicity optimum can be estimated to be close to log P = 0.
