Synthesis and antifungal activity of N-benzyl derivatives of amphotericin B

Abstract: N-Benzyl derivatives of the polyene macrolide antibiotic amphotericin B were formed by reacting it with benzaldehydes and cyanoborohydride under reductive amination conditions. The physicochemical and biological properties of the resulting amphotericin B derivatives were studied. The N-benzyl derivatives of amphotericin B had high antifungal activity against a broad range of test cultures. Biological studies found that the acute toxicity of the amphotericin B derivatives was three times less than for the start… Show more

“…In particular, many of the substituted amidophosphates exhibited antifungal [60,61], antibacterial [61], or antitumor [62][63][64] activity. The reported results and our earlier studies of phosphorylation of polyene macrolide antibiotics [40][41][42][43][65][66][67][68] attracted our interest to investigation of medicinal and biological properties of the prepared derivatives I-V.…”

“…However, Amphotericin B is known for high toxicity (mainly nephrotoxicity) [9,11,31], low gastroenteric absorptivity [32,33], a number of side effects [3,14], and a reduced resistance of certain pathogenic fungi to Amphotericin B action [34,35]; therefore studies of various derivatives of this antibiotics have been emerging [36][37][38][39]. In earlier studies we prepared hydrophosphoryl [40], fluoroorganic [41], and N-benzyl derivatives of Amphotericin B [42].…”

“…In 1988, Chéron et al [ 141 ] were the pioneers in studying the correlation between AMB derivates and their biological activity. Such compounds represent a unique basis for the study of the antifungal structure–activity relationship and the understanding of its properties [ 142 , 143 ]. Basically, the four axes that support its structure–activity relationship are (1) the derivation of a hydroxyl group at C-13; (2) the absence of a negative charge in the acid group; (3) the polyene itself; and (4) an ionizable nitrogen [ 144 , 145 ].…”

“…Chemical modifications of the C-16 carboxyl and/or mycosamine 3= amino groups of AMB were extensively studied and several semisynthetic derivatives of AMB with improved characteristics have been described (2)(3)(4)(5). However, despite some promising initial results obtained for such derivatives, no new AMBbased antifungal agent has appeared on the market, except for the lipid and liposomal formulations (1,6).…”
