5-Aminolaevulinic acid (ALA) and its derivatives have been widely used in photodynamic therapy (PDT) as precursors of the photosensitizer, protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) in dermatology and urology. However, ALA-PDT is limited by the low bioavailability of ALA due to the fact that ALA is poorly absorbed by cells by virtue of its zwitterionic nature at physiological pH. In order to improve the therapeutic effect and induce higher levels of PpIX, a series of ALA prodrugs were synthesized by the conjugation of ALA to 3-hydroxypyridin-4-one (HPO) iron chelator using an amino acid linkage via amide bonds. Pharmacokinetic studies indicated that one ALA-HPO conjugate significantly enhanced PpIX production in a range of tumor cell lines over ALA alone or the co-administration of ALA and CP94 (1,2-diethyl-3-hydroxypyridin-4-one). The intracellular porphyrin fluorescence levels showed good correlation with cellular photo-toxicity following light exposure, suggesting the potential application of the ALA-HPO conjugates in photodynamic therapy.

A range of hexadentate 3-hydroxypyridin-4-ones (HPOs) with high affinity for iron(III) has been synthesized. The log stability constants of two HPO-iron complexes (logK1) were determined to be over 34, and pFe values of the two HPOs were determined to be over 31. Antimicrobial assay indicated that they are able to markedly inhibit the growth of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Compounds 14a and 14e were found to exhibit the strongest inhibitory activity against Staphyloccocus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli, with MIC values of 8, 8, 16, and 8 lg/mL, respectively. These results indicate that hexadentate 3-hydroxypyridin-4-ones have potential application as antimicrobial agents, especially in the treatment of wound infection.

The synthesis of a range of novel bidentate ligands containing the chelating moiety 3-hydroxy-4(1H)-pyridinone is described. The pK(a) values of the ligands and the stability constants of their iron(III) complexes have been determined. The crystal structures of one of the ligands and one of the iron(III) complexes are presented. The distribution coefficients of the ligands are reported and are related to the ability of the ligands to remove iron from hepatocytes. The influence of 3-hydroxy-4(1H)-pyridinones on oxidative damage to cells is described. In contrast to the iron chelator in current therapeutic use, desferrioxamine-B, many of the bidentate ligands described in this study are orally active in iron-overloaded mice.
