Abstract
Consecutive alkylation of 4-hydroxy-2-thioxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylate by CH3I has been investigated to establish regioselectivity of the reaction for reliable design and synthesis of combinatorial libraries. In the first stage, the product of S-methylation-methyl 4-hydroxy-2-(methylthio)quinoline-3-carboxylate was obtained. The subsequent alkylation with CH3I led to the formation of both O- and N-methylation products mixture-methyl 4-methoxy-2-(methylthio)quinoline-3-carboxylate and methyl 1-methyl-2-(methylthio)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylate with a predominance of O-methylated product. The structure of synthesized compounds was confirmed by means of elemental analysis, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, LC/MS, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The quantum chemical calculations of geometry and electron structure of methyl 4-hydroxy-2-(methylthio)quinoline-3-carboxylate’s anion were carried out. According to molecular docking simulations, the studied compounds can be considered as potent inhibitors of Hepatitis B Virus replication. Experimental in vitro biological studies confirmed that studied compounds demonstrated high inhibition of HBV replication in 10 µM concentration.
