Abstract

Our investigations of biological activity of isoxazole derivatives showed very interesting immunological properties. Searching for new active immunomodulators we synthesized a few groups of isoxazole derivatives, which showed significant immunological activity in several in vitro and in vivo assays in mice  and humans [1-8]. A new series of substituted benzylamides of 5-amino-3-methyl-4-isoxazolecarboxylic acid (I) was synthesized in reaction of substituted benzylamines with 5-amino-3-methyl-4-isoxazolecarboxylic acid azide [9]. Each of these new structures opens possibility of a variety of structural modification. Pure products were obtained in average yields, therefore the optimal conditions were determined. The change of parameters of the reactions (temperature, equivalent of reagents, solvents etc.) lead to different products and of course, may influence on efficiency and/or purity of the obtained products. Described benzylamides of 5-amino-3-methyl-4-isoxazolecarboxylic acid (I) will be used as a starting material for the synthesis a new isoxazole derivatives. Structures of new compounds (I) were proven with elemental analysis and IR, NMR spectroscopy.

The influence on the PHA-induced proliferation of human mononuclear blood cells and toxicity to the PHA-induced proliferation of human mononuclear blood cells of derivatives (I) were tested. Preliminary assays showed very interesting immunosupresory and anti-inflammatory activities with low toxicity. Computational study, molecular modeling and structure/activity relationship was performed.

Study was supported by grant of Polish National Science Centre nr N N405 682840.
