Evaluation of antibacterial and antifungal activities of N-benzylthienopyrimidinone derivatives

Résumé fourni par la source

This study is part of the biological investigation of the chemical library of molecules already described by the Laboratory of Organic Chemistry and Therapeutic Chemistry of the University of Bordeaux. The main objective was to explore the contribution of a thienyl moiety attached to the pyrimidinone nucleus, in the expression of an antimicrobial activity. The structural modifications mainly concerned the conservation or not of the benzo fragment attached to the thienyl, the saturation or not in position-1,2 of the pyrimidinone ring, the substitution on N-benzyl with more or less lipophilic units, the modification of the orientation of the thienyl fragment with, on the one hand, the compounds in which the sulfur is located near the N1 nitrogen (series of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones) and on the other hand, compounds in which the sulfur is located near the ketone group (series of thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-ones). In general, thienyl fragment with sulfur located near the ketone group and the unsaturated pyrimidinone nucleus in the 1,2-position, seem to promote a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity, with compound 9c which is active on both Gram + bacteria and Gram – bacteria studied. The same pattern was observed for antifungal activity, which is maximum with the compounds of the thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-ones series for an MIC of 31.25 μg/ml on the strains of Candida albicans and Candida kruzei studied. Keywords: Thienopyrimidinones, antibacterial activity, antifungal activity.
