Example 1
Preparation of substituted fluoroquinolone derivatives
[016] The compounds of the present disclosure comprising a fluoroquinolone derivative compound of general formula (I) was synthesized with reference to the method described in the international patent application number PCT/J02020/050006.
[017] The synthesis of the starting material, with a general formula of ethyl -l-butyl-6-fluoro-7- (substituted-methoxy-phenylamino)-8-nitro-4-oxo-l,4-dihydro-quinolone-3 -carboxylate (la- fl, was initiated by adding three molar equivalents of substituted anisidine (2.99g, 24.3 mmol) into a solution consisting of ethyl l-butyl-7-chloro-6-fluoro-8-nitro-4-oxo-l,4-
dihydroquinolone-3 -carboxylate (3.0g, 8.1mmol) in 15 ml of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) solvent along with a few drops of pyridine. The reaction mixture was refluxed under anhydrous conditions, at a temperature of about 65-70°C, for 2-3 days. Consequently, the resulting mixture was monitored until no starting material remained and was then left to crystallize at room temperature. The obtained bright orange crystals were filtered, washed, and left to dry in dark place.
[018] The synthesis of the general scaffold of the nitro-fluoroquinolone derivative compounds (3a-3f), with a general formula of l-butyl-6-fluoro-7-(substituted methoxy-phenylamino)-8- nitro-4-oxo-l,4-dihydro-quinolone-3 -carboxylic acid (3a-f), was initiated by adding a vigorously stirred suspension of compound (2a-f) (2.0g, 4.37mmol) in 12N HC1 (30mL) and ethanol (15 mL) followed by heating at a temperature about 80-85 °C under reflux conditions. The progress of the ester hydrolysis was monitored by TLC and completed within 36h. Thereafter, the reaction mixture was cooled and poured onto crushed ice (250 g). The resulting pale orange precipitate was collected, washed, and left to dry.
[019] The synthesis of the general scaffold of the reduced fluoroquinolone derivative compounds (4a-4f), with a general formula of 8-amino-l-butyl-6-fluoro-7-( substituted methoxy-phenylamino)-4-oxo-l,4-dihydro-quinolone-3-carboxylic acid, was initiated by stirring a mixture of compound (3a-3f) (1.0g, 2.3 mmol) in 6.5mL of 12N HC1 in an ice bath for about 15 minutes. Stannous chloride (1.77g, 9.3mmol) was then added portion-wise into the reaction mixture, where the progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC until completion. After completion, the reaction mixture was poured onto crushed ice and the resulting brown-orange precipitate was collected, washed, and left to dry.
[020] The general scaffold of the triazolo-fluoroquinolone derivative compounds (5a- 5f), with a general formula of 9-butyl-4-fluoro-3-( substituted methoxy-phenyl)-6-oxo-6,9-dihydro- 3H-[l,2,3]triazolo[4,5-h]quinolone-7-carboxylic acid, was synthesized through cyclization/diazotization of preceding reduced acid (compound 4a). Compound 4a-f (0.50g, 1.25mmol) was placed in RBF, followed by addition of about 20ml aqueous HC1. The reaction mixture was left stirring in ice bath (0-5°C) for about 15 minutes. NaNCh (0.086g, Immol) dissolved in lOmL H2O was then added drop wise and the reaction mixture was left
for stirring overnight. The progress of the cyclization reaction was monitored by TLC and was completed within 24 h. Thereafter, the reaction mixture was cooled and poured onto crushed ice. The resulting brown precipitate was collected, washed with cold water, and left to dry.
[021] Table 1 describes the 16 synthesized fluoroquinolone derivatives 3a-5f. A series of nitrofluoroquinolones (3a-3f), reduced fluoroquinolones (4a-4d), and triazolo-fluoroquinolones (5a-5f) were prepared. All compounds were used as pure samples after verification over the TLC system with a mobile phase mixture of 94:5: 1 chloroform-methanol-formic acid (CHCh-MeOH-FA) and 50:50 n-hexane - Ethyl acetate. The compounds were each characterized to make sure that no oxidation or degradation occurred and then dissolved in DMSO to obtain a final stock solution concentration of 10 mg/mL.
[022] The fluoroquinolone derivatives were developed to have a high lipophilic character in order to ease and facilitate their accessibility into the hydrophobic cell membrane of various cancer cell lines. This is because the developed fluoroquinolones includea lipophilic alkane chain at one terminal and one or more substituted anisidines at another terminal.
Example 2
DPPH free radical scavenger capability assay of the substituted fluoroquinolone derivatives
[023] The antioxidant activity of each fluoroquinolone derivative was evaluated by using 1, 1- diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging assay. According to this method, a DPPH solution (0.2 mM in MeOH) was mixed with each fluoroquinolone derivative as well as ascorbic acid in a concentration ratio of 1:1 using a 96-well plate. The formed sample mixtures were then incubated for about 1 hour in a dark room, away from light. A change in absorbance at 517 nm wavelength was measured using a microplate reader. The ability of each fluoroquinolone compound (3a-5f) to scavenge the DPPH radicals was calculated using the following equation:
Where Ao is the absorbance of the reagent blank and Ai is the absorbance of the sample.
All experiments were performed in triplicate. The concentration of each fluoroquinolone derivative required to inhibit 50% of DPPH radicals (at %RSA = 50%) was expressed as IC50
(pM), where their values can be found below in Table 2. All IC50 values were compared to a reference anti-oxidant agent (ascorbic acid).
[024] By referring to table 2, compound 3 c had the lowest IC50 value and thus the strongest anti-oxidant activity in the nitro-fluoroquinolone series. In the reduced fluoroquinolone series, compound 4b exhibited the highest radical scavenging and anti-oxidant activity out of all developed fluoroquinolones. The low IC50 value of compound 4b was very similar to that of reference agent ascorbic acid (IC50 of compound 4b = 3.61 > IC50 of ascorbic acid = 3.37). In the triazolo-fluoroquinolone series, all of the developed compounds demonstrated a very weak anti-oxidant activity in comparison to ascorbic acid.

Example 3
Anti-Inflammatory and NO-scavenging determination of the substituted fluoroquinolone derivatives
[025] The anti-inflammatory activity of the substituted fluoroquinolone derivatives, relevant to its NO inhibition ability, was measured using Griess assay.
[026] A mouse macrophage cell line, RAW 264.7 (ATCC® TIB-71), was obtained and cultured in high glucose DMEM supplemented with 10% (FBS), penicillin (100 U/mL), streptomycin (100 pg/mL), and L-glutamate (100 pg/mL). The cell was incubated, in a humidified incubator, in an atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 °C. To induce the RAW 264.7 macrophage cells to an inflammatory condition, the cells were seeded onto a 96-well plate (2/ 105 cells/well) and incubated for 24 hours with about 20 pg/mL of macrophage prompting lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and indomethacin (25-200 pg/mL) to form a positive control as well as different concentrations (5-200 pg/mL) of each fluoroquinolone derivative 3a-5f to form samples.
[027] Nitric oxide production was assayed by measuring nitrite in the supernatants of cultured RAW 264.7 cells. The amount of nitrite in the culture medium was measured using the Griess reagent (50 pL of 1 % Sulfanilamide in 5 % phosphoric acid and 50 pL of 0.1 % napthylethyllenediamine-HCL). A volume of about 100 pL of the Griess reagent cell was mixed with aliquots of 100 pL of the cell culture media. Subsequently, the mixture was incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes and the absorbance was measured at 550 nm in a microplate reader. The quantity of nitrite was determined from a sodium nitrite standard
curve and the ability of each fluoroquinolone compound (3a-5f) to scavenge NO radicals was calculated using the following equation:
Where Ao is the absorbance of the positive control and Ai is the absorbance of the sample
All experiments were performed in triplicate. The concentration of each fluoroquinolone erivative required to inhibit 50% of nitric radical was expressed as IC50 (pM), where their values can be found below in Table 3. All IC50 values were compared to a reference NO- scavenging agent (indomethacin).
* when P< 0.05, ** when P< 0.01 or 0.001, *** when P < 0.001 or 0.0001, **** when PO.OOOl, NS: not significantly different from reference drug, NI: non -inhibitory
[028] In the nitro-fluoroquinolone series, compound 3d has a lower IC50 value and thus a higher anti-inflammatory potency than the reference agent indomethacin. In the reduced fluoroquinolone series, compounds 4b and 4e exhibited a substantially greater NO- scavenging than indomethacin. It can be noticed that compound 4e is themost potent antiinflammatory developed fluoroquinolone. In the triazolo-fluoroquinolone series, only compound 5 c demonstrated a promising equipotency to indomethacin without similar DPPH scavenging effectiveness. The remaining triazolo-fluoroquinolones were found to be ineffective radical scavengers in comparison to either ascorbic acid or indomethacin (p<0.01- 0.001).
Example 4
In vitro antiproliferative assay of the substituted fluoroquinolone derivatives
[029] The developed compounds 3 a - 5f were tested for their in vitro antitumor activity against seven different cell lines: two breast cancer cell lines MCF7 (ATCC® HTB-22) and T47D (ATCC® HTB-133), human skin cancer cell line A375 ((ATCC® CRL-1619), pancreatic cancer cell line PANCI (ATCC® CRL-1469), lung cancer cell line A549 ((ATCC® CCL- 185), prostate cancer cell line PC3 (ATCC® CRL-1435™), and chronic leukemia cell line K562 (ATCC® CCL-243).The cell lines were cultured in high glucose DMEM containing 10% FBS, HEPES Buffer (10 rnM), L-glutamine (2 rnM), gentamicin (50 pg/mL), penicillin (100 U/mL), and streptomycin sulfate (100 mg/mL). Subsequently, each cell line was incubated for 72 hours with different concentrations of substituted fluoroquinolones (5-200 pg/mL). The cytotoxicity measurements were determined using sulforhodamine (SRB)
colorimetric assay for cytotoxicity screening. As a robust and classical antineoplastic reference agent, cisplatin (1-200 pg/mL) was recruited for comparison purposes.
ICso values were calculated from curves constructed by plotting cell survival (%) versus drug concentration. The reading values were then converted to the percentage of control (% cell survival). Cytotoxic effects were expressed as IC50 (pM) in Table 4. Calculation of the %cytotoxicity was determined by the following equation:
% Cytotoxicity 100
where Ao is the absorbance of the control and Ai is the absorbance of the sample.
* when P< 0.05, ** when P< 0.01 or 0.001, *** when P < 0.001 or 0.0001, **** when P<0.0001, NS: not significantly different from reference drug, NI: lack of cytotoxicity within the tested 0.1- 200 pg/mL concentration range
[030] The developed fluoroquinolones were classified intro three different groups according to their relative IC50 value: 1) strong antiproliferative effect with ICso< 50 pM, 2) intermediate antiproliferative effect with 50 pM < ICso<lOO pM., and 3) weak antiproliferative effect with ICso> 100 pM. With reference to table 5, only 12 compounds (3a,3b,3c,3e,3f,4a,4c,4d,4e,4f,5a,5f) demonstrated strong antiproliferative effect against different cancer cell lines. Unlike nitro-fluoroquinolone and reduced fluoroquinolone series, triazo-fluoroquinolones exhibited the least antineoplastic activity. The only exceptions in the triazo-fluoroquinolone series were observed with compounds 5a and 5f. Compound 5a had an appreciable antiproliferative activity again skin melanoma A375 (IC50 of compound 5a=30.8 < IC50 of cisplatin = 0.7) and breast cancer T47D (IC50 of compound 5a=22.3 <ICso of cisplatin = 45.2) cancer cell lines. Similarly, compound 5f had an appreciable antiproliferative activity against leukemia K562 (IC50 of compound 5f=l 1 .9 <ICso of cisplatin= 29.3) cancer cell line.
The rest of the triazo-fluoroquinolone series were significantly ineffective in lung cancer A549, breast cancer MCF7, pancreatic cancer Panc-1, and prostate cancer PC-3 cell lines in comparison to the reference drug cisplatin.
[031] In comparison to the reference drug cisplatin, compound 4c exhibited comparable IC50 value and effectiveness against A549 cancer cell line, eight compounds (3a, 3c, 3e, 4a, 4b, 4c, 4f, 5a) exhibited stronger IC50 value and effectiveness against MCF7 cancer cell line, eight compounds (3b,3d,3e,4a,4b,4c,4e,4f) exhibited stronger IC50 value and effectiveness against PC3 cancer cell line, six compounds (3b,4a,4c,4d,4e,5f) exhibited stronger IC50 value and effectiveness against K562 cancer cell line, and 3 compounds (3e,4c,5a) exhibited stronger IC50 value and effectiveness against T47D cancer cell line.
[032] Reference in this example is made to FIG. 1-4. FIG 1. illustrates cytotoxicity IC50 values of developed compounds against K562 cancer cell line. The results show that most of the developed fluoroquinolones, particularly the reduced fluoroquinolone series, have superior activity against leukaemia K562 cell line in comparison to other cancer cell lines tested, with compound 4c showing the strongest IC50 value of 3.51 pM. FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 illustrate cytotoxicity IC50 values of developed compounds against MCF7 and T47D cancer cell lines, respectively. In both cell lines, reduced fluoroquinolone compounds, particularly 4c and 4f, demonstrated the highest antitumor activity. FIG. 4 illustrates the cytotoxicity IC50 values of developed compounds against lung A549 cancer cell line. Compounds 4c and 4f have displayed the lowest cytotoxicity IC50 values (< 50 pM) with reference to cisplatin. Despite their IC50 values being higher than that of cisplatin, these compounds have displayed strong activity against lung cancer cell line. Additionally, it is worth mentioning that the A375 human skin cancer cell line was resistant to any reasonably moderate antiproliferative capacity of nitro- and reduced fluoroquinolones (IC50 values > 100 pM). Pancreatic PANC-1 carcinoma cells were similarly resistant to nitro-fluoroquinolones (IC50 values > 100 pM).
[033] Overall, it can be deduced that the reduced fluoroquinolone series 4a-4f demonstrated the greatest antitumor activity against various cancer lines and can act as potential drug leads.
Example 5
Selectivity index of the substituted fluoroquinolone derivatives
[034] Selectivity ratio, also known as selectivity index (SI), is a term that describes the safety of a tested compound. SI was calculated by dividing ICsoof the tested compound on normal periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDL) cell line by the lowest IC50 value of the same compound on a specific pathological cell line. The lowest IC50 value of each compound on a specific cancer cell line was selected from table 4. Their selectivity indices for safety examination were calculated using normal periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDL) in comparison to cisplatin’s lack of differential cytotoxicity. The selectivity indexes of developed fluoroquinolones 3a-5f are reported in table 5.
* when P< 0.05, ** when P< 0.01 or 0.001, *** when P < 0.001 or 0.0001, **** when PO.OOOl, NS: not significantly different from reference drug, NI: lack of cytotoxicity within the tested 0.1- 200 pg/mL concentration range
[035] All developed compounds, particularly 4a-d, have demonstrated a larger selectivity index than that of cisplatin. Moreover, it was shown that the IC50 values of PDL fibroblast of all substituted fluoroquinolones exceeded the IC50 value of cisplatin. Such results have indicated the high selectivity and safety profile of these developed compounds as well as their ability to be considered as potential drug leads.
