In the early phases of drug design and development, scientists must overcome many challenges involved in identifying potential drug-like or lead-like compounds. This has led to the need of creating large sets of chemical data which will aid in improving the identification of pharmacophores and active compounds. Various scientific fields especially pharmacology, medicinal chemistry and biochemistry have begun to employ the use of computer sciences to aid in the screening for potential leads with more specificity with regards to drug-like compounds' or substances' bioactivity. The emphasis of this project was to create a database containing a collection of pyrazine compounds synthesized overtime in the Faculty of Pharmacy (Charles University, Hradec Kralove) with the aim of having anti-mycobacterium (and possible antibacterial and antifungal) activity, and further utilize this database to predict certain pharmacokinetic and bioavailability properties. This project seeks to demonstrate how certain molecular descriptors can be used as reliable chemoinformation to determine the likeliness or possibility of developing a lead-like or drug-like compound by utilizing computer software. An in-house database of 623 compounds saved in SMILES format was created and used in demonstrating quantitative...

In a theoretical part are summarized information and knowledge about tuberculosis, nowadays epidemiology and drugs used in current treatment. There are also described drugs in the different stage of clinical trials and could be used for treatment of tuberculosis in the future. Searched information were used from accessible learning materials and in articles in online databases as Web of Science and PubMed.

From the results were predicted some of the relations between structure and activity. Virtual library of the...

DERIVATIVES OF 5-ALKYLPYRAZINE-2-CARBOXYLIC ACID AS POTENTIAL ANTI-INFECTIVES HALÍŘOVÁ MARTINA Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Drug Analysis, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Charles University, Czech Republic In our previous study, we have demonstrated that 5-alkylamino-N- phenylpyrazine-2-carboxamides with longer alkyl chain (C5-C8) exerted micromolar growth inhibition activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv. We speculated that the long alkylamino chain could facilitate the penetration of lipophilic mycobacterial cell envelope. To test this hypothesis, we performed the amino to methylene isosteric exchange and designed a series of 5-alkyl-N-phenylpyrazine-2-carboxamides. 5- Alkylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acids (5-Ak-POA) were prepared by homolytic alkylation of commercially available pyrazine-2-carbonitrile by respective alkanoic acid, followed by hydrolysis of the carbonitrile group. Final derivatives were prepared by CDI mediated coupling of 5-Ak-POA with corresponding aniline at RT. Final compounds were described by melting point, elementary analysis, IR spectroscopy and 1 H, 13 C NMR. Then they were tested in vitro for antimycobacterial activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv and several non-tuberculous mycobacterial strains. Several compounds exerted MIC of 3.13-6.25 µg mL-1 ....

Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis Author: Cristina Paredes de la Red Supervisor: prof. PharmDr. Martin Doležal, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: Synthesis and antiinfective evaluation of substituted N-(pyrazine-2- yl)benzenesulfonamide Tuberculosis (TB) is among the ten leading causes of death, especially in developing countries. Even though it is an old disease with established treatment regimen, there has been an increased resistance to anti-TB drugs 1 . The anti-tubercular pyrazinamide has caught the attention of researchers as the different theories for its mechanism of action have made it an interesting entity for further investigation. Here we will discuss N-(pyrazine-2-yl)benzenesulfonamides (General structure is presented in the Figure below) as a new derivatization approach based on synergism methodology between pyrazinamide and sulfonamides. Sulfonamides exert their antimicrobial effect by competitive inhibition of folic acid synthesis and subsequent inhibition of bacterial growth and reproduction 18 . I have contributed to the synthesis and purification of 8 compounds in a series of total 22 N- pyrazinylsulfonamides. Two of the prepared compounds showed activity against Mycobacterium kansasii [2a (MIC...

Ziel dieser Arbeit war die Entwicklung einer allgemein anwendbaren Methode für die Simulation von ultraschnellen Prozessen und experimentellen Observablen. Hierfür wurden die Berechnung der elektronischen Struktur mit der zeitabhängigen Dichtefunktionaltheorie (TDDFT) und das Tully-Surface-Hopping-Verfahren für die nichtadiabatische Kerndynamik auf der Basis klassischer Trajektorien miteinander kombiniert. Insbesondere wurde eine Beschreibung der nichtadiabatischen Kopplungen für TDDFT entwickelt. Diese Methode wurde für die Simulation noch komplexerer Systeme durch die Tight-Binding-Näherung für TDDFT erweitert. Da die zeitaufgelöste Photoelektronenspektroskopie (TRPES) ein exzellentes experimentelles Verfahren für die Echtzeitbeobachtung von ultraschnellen Prozessen darstellt, wurde eine TDDFT-basierte Methode für die Simulation von TRPES entwickelt. Der Methode liegt die Idee zu Grunde, das System aus Kation und Photoelektron näherungsweise durch angeregte Zustände des neutralen Moleküls oberhalb der Ionisierungsgrenze zu beschreiben. Um diese Zustände mit TDDFT berechnen zu können wurde eine Beschreibung der Übergangsdipolmomente zwischen angeregten TDDFT-Zuständen entwickelt. Des Weiteren wurden Simulationen im Rahmen des Stieltjes-Imaging-Verfahrens, das eine Möglichkeit der Rekonstruktion des Photoelektronenspektrums aus den spektralen Momenten bietet, durchgeführt. Diese spektralen Momente wurden aus den diskreten TDDFT-Zuständen berechnet. Die breite Anwendbarkeit der entwickelten theoretischen Methoden für die Simulation von komplexen Systemen wurde an der Photoisomerisierung in Benzylidenanilin sowie der ultraschnellen Photodynamik in Furan, Pyrazin und mikrosolvatisiertem Adenin illustriert. Die dargestellten Beispiele demonstrieren, dass die nichtadiabatische Dynamik im Rahmen von TDDFT bzw. TDDFTB sehr gut für die Untersuchung und Interpretation der ultraschnellen photoinduzierten Prozesse in komplexen Molekülen geeignet ist. / The goal of this thesis was the development of a generally applicable theoretical framework for the simulation of ultrafast processes and experimental observables in complex molecular systems. For this purpose, a combination of the time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) for the description of the electronic structure with the Tully''s surface hopping procedure for the treatment of nonadiabatic nuclear dynamics based on classical trajectories was employed. In particular, a new approach for the calculation of nonadiabatic couplings within TDDFT was devised. The method was advanced for the description of more complex systems such as chromophores in a solvation shell by employing the tight binding approximation to TDDFT. Since the time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (TRPES) represents a powerful experimental technique for real-time observation of ultrafast processes, a TDDFT based approach for the simulation of TRPES was developed. The basic idea is the approximate representation of the combined system of cation and photoelectron by excited states of the neutral species above the ionization threshold. In order to calculate these states with TDDFT, a formulation of the transition dipole moments between excited states within TDDFT was devised. Moreover, simulations employing the Stieltjes imaging (SI) procedure were carried out providing the possibility to reconstruct photoelectron spectra from spectral moments. In this work, the spectral moments were calculated from discrete TDDFT states. The scope of the developed theoretical methods was illustrated on the photoisomerization in benzylideneaniline as well as on the ultrafast photodynamics in furan, pyrazine, and microsolvated adenine. The examples demonstrate that the nonadiabatic dynamics simulations based on TDDFT and TDDFTB are particularly suitable for the investigation and interpretation of ultrafast photoinduced processes in complex molecules.
