Description

Title of Invention
A Novel Semisynthetic Derivate as a Potential Anti TB Agent
SUMMARY
The persistence of TB despite constant human endeavors has led to a renewed interest in the research and development of new effective drugs and treatment regimens. To develop a novel drug candidate, we set out to investigate the ability of lupeol and its pyrazoline and pyridine derivatives to inhibit the growth of M. tuberculosis in vitro. There was phenyl keto substituted derivative of lupeol was synthesized by the action of aromatic carbonyl compound and rectified spirit on lupeol aldehyde in the presence of alkali. The compound on further changes leads to various compounds which show activity against tuberculosis.
Pyrazoline derivatives were found to be the most potent compound of the series, but pyridine derivative also showed significant activity, thus, increasing its prospects for further development.
Background of Invention
Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the world's deadliest communicable diseases. In 2019, an estimated 10 million people fell in TB worldwide, and 1.4 million died from the disease. Problematic issues in TB treatment include the increased incidence of multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB), which is a form of TB caused by bacteria that do not respond to isoniazid and rifampicin. Extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB) is a more serious form of MDR-TB caused by bacteria that do not respond to the most effective second-line anti-TB drugs, often leaving patients without any further treatment options. The increasing emergence of drug resistance highlights the need to develop novel chemical entity of TB drugs. It is a fatal disease and one of the leading causes of the death all over the world especially in the developing countries like India. It is also believed to be the leading cause of death among HIV positive peoples. Present anti-tubercular drugs are quite effective in the treatment of TB but resistance to these drugs by M. tuberculosis strains is on the rise which is a growing concern among scientific community worldwide. New antitubercular compounds/structures are urgently needed in the present situation because very few agents belonging to first line (e.g. rifabutin) or second line drugs (e.g. capreomycin, levofloxacin) have become available for the treatment of this disease.. To solve these issues, there is an urgent need to develop novel alternative, safe and potent drugs with a broader spectrum of antimicrobial activity
. Natural products can be found in a wide plethora of living species, with many of them harnessing the potential to possess biological and therapeutic activity of high importance. The ever increasing demand for new drug molecules that act against current or new illnesses has led to greater interest in research conducted on secondary plant metabolites .The isolation of a new compound from its natural source and testing its bioactivity is one of the ways, but we wish to focus our research on another alternative; isolation of an already known biologically active compound and modifying key chemical moieties within the molecule to investigate any changes in its bioactivity. These chemical modifications could be performed through biotransformation, utilizing enzymes, or chemically, with the hope of using cheap and commercially available reagents. triiterpenes are a large class of natural compounds that exhibit a range of interesting biological activities such as antimicrobial anti-inflammatory gastroprotective , anti-spasmodic ,among others.
These nitrogen containing compounds have played an important role in drug discovery owing to their diverse pharmacological actions. Pyrazolines are even more special due to their marked physiological and pharmacological activity and distinct functions. Pyrazoline derivatives were reported to possess numerous prominent pharmacological activities; antimicrobial-antibacterial and antifungal, antiamoebic, anti-TB , anti-HIV, anticancer, antidepressant and anticonvulsant. Euphorbia diterpenes are of interest to chemists and biochemists regarding drug discovery from natural products due to their diverse therapeutic applications as well as their great structural diversity. Other chemical constituents such as triterpenoids have also been reported to possess various pharmacological properties, thus supporting the traditional uses of the Euphorbia species. These triterpenoids can provide potential leads that can be developed into pharmaceutical compounds for a wide range of medicinal applications. However, there are scattered scientific reports about the anticancer activities of these constituents.

Traditional medicine is still the primary form of treating diseases of majority of people in developing countries including India; even among those to whom western medicine is available, the number of people using one form or another of complementary of alternative medicine is rapidly increasing worldwide
The present invention is concerned with novel lupeol and Lupenone derivatives of reduced toxicity and of correspondingly enhanced utility as antitubercular, and to the preparation there of.
Our invention is to explore and develop the novel molecules with improved potential for treating tuberculosis. The objectives of the present invention is to identify the (lupeol and lupenone) compounds and their derivatives present in the whole plant of Euphorbiatirucalliand to determine the antitubercular activity of their enriched fractions and isolated compounds. There are several reasons that justify the need to search for new drugs for anti- tubercular action, e.g. Improvement of current treatment by shortening its duration, to get efficient treatment for MDR TB and to eradicate the latent infection. So, the development of new drugs for shortening the duration of the treatment and to fight against multi drug resistant tuberculosis strains is urgent.

Tuberculosis has been a major health problem for developing countries including India. Due to increase in MDR and XDR strains of M. tuberculosis, there is an urgent need of finding newer anti-mycobacterial agents to combat this problem.Natural products and/or their semi-synthetic derivatives can lead to novel antimycobacterial drugs and may have important role in the chemotherapy of tuberculosis. Among the lupeol derivatives tested few have shown MIC at 8.50 pg/ml, 10 pg/ml, while other showed >25 pg/ml. The most active compound 4a, 4b. This clearly demonstrate that pyrazoline moiety in lupeol increases the activity. It is thus concluded that lupeol skeleton deserve further investigation for the development of more potent and nontoxic new agents for therapeutic use.
