New amides containing selenium as potent leishmanicidal agents targeting trypanothione reductase

Two new series of twenty-eight selenocyanate and diselenide derivatives containing amide moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their leishmanicidal activity against Leishmania infantum axenic amastigotes, and selectivity was assessed in human THP-1 cells. Eleven compounds exhibited exc...

Eleven compounds exhibited excellent leishmanicidal activity with EC50 values lower than the reference drug miltefosine (EC50 = 2.84 muM). In addition, for six of them the selectivity index ranged from 9 to > 1442, greater than both references used. The most potent and selective compounds were 2h, 2k and 2m that displayed EC50 values of 0.52, 1.19 and 0.50 muM and a high selectivity index (SI) when tested against THP-1 monocytic cells (SI = >1442, > 672 and >1100, respectively).
