Category: benzodioxans. The mechanism of aromatic electrophilic substitution of aromatic heterocycles is consistent with that of benzene. Compound: 5,5′-Dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine, is researched, Molecular C12H12N2, CAS is 1762-34-1, about Identification of descriptors for structure-activity relationship in ruthenium (II) mixed compounds with antiparasitic activity. Author is Cedillo-Gutierrez, Erika Lorena; Hernandez-Ayala, Luis Felipe; Torres-Gutierrez, Carolina; Reina, Miguel; Flores-Alamo, Marcos; Carrero, Julio C.; Ugalde-Saldivar, Victor M.; Ruiz-Azuara, Lena.
Herein is presented the synthesis, characterization, electrochem. studies, DFT calculations and in vitro evaluation of amoebicidal activity in trophozoites of Entamoeba histolytica of twenty ruthenium(II) mixed compounds with general formulas: [Ru(pdto)(E-E)]Clx (E-E bidentate, either neutral or neg. charged ligands). For compounds under study, O-O, N-O and N-N auxiliary donor ligands demonstrate to have a crucial impact on the electronic properties and that it is possible to modulate the antiparasitic activity. Among analyzed complexes, only four present a better performance compared to typically used metronidazole drug (IC50 < 6.80μmol/L) to treat amebiasis disease. For studied compounds, structure-activity relations are strongly determined by either the redox potential (E1/2) of RuII/RuIII and calculated molar volume (V) of the complexes.
