VIII. RESEARCH STATEMENT
INTRODUCTION:
Heterocyclic compounds are very widely distributed in nature and are essential to life. They play a vital role in the metabolism of all living cells. Nitrogen containing heterocycles are the compounds placed at the topmost in the field of pharmaceuticals and agrochemical industries. The biological importance of Nitrogen containing heterocycles have made them scope for synthesis. Their importance as precursors to many biologically active compounds has made attention on developing methods to functionalize these systems.
The synthesis of nitrogen Heterocycles and their derivatives occupy an important place in the realm of natural and synthetic organic chemistry due to their therapeutic and pharmacological properties. They have emerged as integral backbones of over seven thousand existing drugs. In addition to these important biological applications nitrogen Heterocycles are ideal scaffolds for making libraries of drug like compounds and to generate libraries of inhibitors of HIV-1 protease. A large number of nitrogen containing heterocyclic building blocks have several applications in pharmaceutical research and drug discovery. Most of the organic compounds containing nitrogen show better biological activity than non- nitrogen compounds [1-5].
Upon reviewing literature, we became interested in the synthesis of some nitrogen containing Heterocycles like, pyridine, pyrimidine and fused pyrimidine Heterocycles. Although a numerous modified methods under improved conditions have been reported for the synthesis of these classes of compounds, most of the methods are generally carried out in organic solvents, longer reaction time, high temperature and expensive catalysts are used. Moreover disadvantages of most of the existing methods are that catalyst is destroyed in the work-up and cannot be recovered or reused. Due to the immense biological activities of nitrogen containing heterocyclic compounds, we have become interested in the synthesis of various nitrogen heterocyclic and evaluate their biological activity associated with them [6-9]. PROBLEM STATEMENT:
During our research work, we planned to sort out many challenges in the field of synthetic organic chemistry. We worked our plan very successful. However, we are unsatisfied with some compounds which yield quantitatively less by our methodology. In biological evaluation, some compounds showed less anticancer activity.
OBJECTIVE OF THE PROPOSED RESEARCH:
In the part of Synthetic organic chemistry, we have main objectives of the proposed research.
Design the synthesis of Pyrazoles and Pyrazolo-pyrimidine derivatives: To design the desired derivatives by using starting materials which are inexpensive and reaction favor.
Pyrano-pyrazoles and Pyrazolo-Pyrimidines from four component starting materials: We planned to use four components which lead to moment reaction.
Green Chemistry approach: The use of solvents and catalysts should be eco-friendly.
Microwave Irradiation and Ultrasonic method:
Use of Ionic Liquids: Preparation of Ionic liquids. These act as catalysts for the reaction.
Nano catalyst: The use of Nano-catalysts to accelerate the reaction.
Biological activity (Anticancer and Antimicrobial): In vitro screening of all compounds against MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line by MTT assay based cytotoxicity study was done. We have studied in vitro antibacterial screening for Pyrano-pyrazoles. Cancer is still continuing to be a major health problem worldwide. The treatment of cancer is associated with various side effects.
Bone marrow depression
Alopecia
Drug-induced cancer
Hepatotoxicity and many more.
Because of the need & value of anticancer drugs, many laboratories are intensively investigating the chemistry & biology of novel anticancer agents. SUMMARY:
Cancer is still continuing to be a major health problem worldwide. The development of new anticancer therapeutic agents is one of the fundamental goals in medicinal chemistry as cancer causes about 15% of all the death. Surpassing cardiovascular diseases, it is taking the position number one killer due to various factors. Also the treatment of cancer is associated with various side effects which include bone marrow depression, alopecia, drug-induced cancer, hepatotoxicity and many more. Because of the need and value of anticancer drugs, many laboratories are intensively investigating the chemistry and biology of novel anticancer agents. Also the development of resistance against the existing anticancer drugs and cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of anticancer drugs to the normal cells are other major problems in cancer therapy, keeping research window open in search for newer anticancer molecules. But the window passage has become narrower because it is rather hard to search a molecule that can selectively inhibit the proliferation of abnormal cells only with least or no effect on normal cells. In the last decade, several Pyrazolo-Pyrimidines proved to have anticancer activity. The other activities reported for Pyrazole nucleus include antitubercular, anticonvulsant, anticancer, antimicrobial, anti-HIV, antihepatotoxic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic. Also Curcumin, a major yellow pigment and active component of turmeric, has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities. In some countries, Curcumin was consumed in the diet upto 4g/adult/day, which appeared to lower the incident rate of colorectal cancer. In the study, Curcumin showed autophagic and apoptotic death of K562 cell line (Leukemia). The cytotoxicity studies in different cells indicated that the toxicity of Curcumin was significantly higher in tumor cells if compared to the normal cells. Curcumin and its derivatives possess a wide variety of pharmacological activities such as antibacterial, anti-HIV, anti- inflammatory, antimalarial, anticancer, and many more. Considering these recent discoveries, curcumin can be considered as an ideal lead compound for anticancer drug development. Earlier, we have reported the anticancer activity of Pyrazoles and Pyrazolo-pyrimidine derivatives analogues. On owing to these negative aspects of treatment, we have synthesized different derivatives of Pyrazolo- Pyrimidines which can show less toxic to the human body. We employed green chemistry so that use of environmental benign starting materials could have been used. Also, less expensive chemicals and solvent-free synthesis have been done. Microwave method, Conventional method and Ultrasonic method could have been implemented. In these, microwave method proved to be an excellent method with respect to green chemistry. Multicomponent synthesis could have been achieved. This afforded quick reactions as well as good yield of the desired products. Rather than using Nano-catalysts, we planned to use Ionic liquids which have been emerged good positive results for the Organic Synthesis. Biological activity (Antiviral activity): We have planned to screen all our synthesized compounds for biological evaluation, in particular anticancer activity. We will do both in-vivo and in-vitro study of Pyrazolo-Pyrimidines as CDKs inhibitor, as agonists for Ehlirich Ascites Carcinoma cell lines and agonists for MCF-7 Breast cancer cell lines. Also, plan to do Docking studies and cytotoxic activity. Literature survey reveals that, the importance of Pyrazolo-Pyrimidines, in therapy and other applications, herewith we are presumed to synthesize some novel Pyrazolo- Pyrimidine derivatives using simple and inexpensive starting materials by both conventional and microwave assisted synthesis, characterization
(Spectral analysis);
1HNMR,
13CNMR, HPLC, MS and elemental analysis) and their biological evaluation will be taken up. REFERENCES:
