Due to the limitations of existing medications, there is a critical need for new drugs to treat visceral leishmaniasis. Since arylimidamides and antifungal azoles both show oral activity in murine visceral leishmaniasis models, a molecular hybridization approach was employed where arylimidamide and azole groups were separated by phenoxyalkyl linkers in an attempt to capitalize on the favorable antileishmanial properties of both series. Among the target compounds synthesized, a greater antileishmanial potency against intracellular Leishmania donovani was observed as the linker length increased from two to eight carbons and when an imidazole ring was employed as the terminal group compared to a 1,2,4-triazole group. Compound 24c (N-(4-((8-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)octyl)oxy)-2-isopropoxyphenyl) picolinimidamide) displayed activity against L. donovani intracellular amastigotes with an IC50 value of 0.53 μM. When tested in a murine visceral leishmaniasis model, compound 24c at a dose of 75 mg/kg/day p.o. for five consecutive days resulted in a modest 33% decrease in liver parasitemia compared to the control group, indicating that further optimization of these molecules is needed. While potent hybrid compounds bearing an imidazole terminal group were also strong inhibitors of recombinant CYP51 from L. donovani, as assessed by a fluorescence-based assay, additional targets are likely to play an important role in the antileishmanial action of these compounds.

The highly rigid and planar scaffolds with π-conjugated systems have been widely considered to be indispensable for β-amyloid (Aβ) binding ligands. In this study, a library of diphenoxy compounds with different types of more flexible linkers as Aβ ligands were synthesized and evaluated. Most of them displayed good affinity (Ki1-42aggregates, and some ligands even showed values of Kiless than 10 nM. Structure-activity relationship analysis revealed that modification on the linkers or substituents tolerated great flexibility, which challenged the long-held belief that rigid and planar structures are exclusively favored for Aβ binding. Three ligands were labeled by iodine-125, and they exhibited good properties in vitro and in vivo, which further supported that this flexible scaffold was potential and promising for the development of Aβ imaging agents.
