Popis: | The search for compounds with new structural scaffolds is an important tool to the discovery of new drugs against Chagas disease. We report herein the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles obtained from eugenol and di-hydroeugenol and their in vitro and in vivo trypanocidal activity. These derivatives were obtained by a three-step objective route and were suitably characterized by 1 H and 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Two compounds (9 and 10) showed activity against epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi (Y strain) in the range 42.8-88.4 μM and were weakly toxic to cardiomyoblast cells (H9c2 cells). The triazole 10 was the most active derivative and could reduce more than 50% of parasitemia after a 100-mg/kg oral treatment of mice infected with T. cruzi. Molecular docking studies suggested this compound could act as a trypanocidal agent by inhibiting cruzain, an essential enzyme for T. cruzi metabolism, usually inhibited by triazole compounds. |
