Carbocyclic analogues of inosine-5'-monophosphate: synthesis and biological activity

E S Matyugina et al. Acta Naturae. 2012 Oct.

Abstract

9-(4'-Phosphonomethoxy-2'-cyclopenten-1'-yl)hypoxanthine and 9-(4'-phosphonomethoxy-2',3'-dihydroxycyclopenten-1'-yl)hypoxanthine were synthesized as isosteric carbocyclic analogues of inosine-5'-monophosphate. The synthesized compounds were shown to be capable of inhibiting the activity of human type II inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH II) (IC(50 )= 500 µM) and to have no significant effects on the growth ofMycobacterium tuberculosis.

Keywords: Carbocyclic nucleosides; competitive inhibition; human IMPDH II,Mycobacterium tuberculosis; inosine-5’-monophosphate.
