dc.description.abstractIn this paper, the isolation of dillapiole (1) from Piper aduncum was reported as well as the semi-synthesis of two phenylpropanoid derivatives [di-hydrodillapiole (2), isodillapiole (3)], via reduction and isomerization reactions. Also, the compounds' molecular properties (structural, electronic, hydrophobic, and steric) were calculated and investigated to establish some preliminary structure-activity relationships (SAR). Compounds were evaluated for in vitro antileishmanial activity and cytotoxic effects on fibroblast cells. Compound 1 presented inhibitory activity against Leishmania amazonensis (IC 50 = 69.3 μM) and Leishmania brasiliensis (IC50 = 59.4 μM) and induced cytotoxic effects on fibroblast cells mainly in high concentrations. Compounds 2 (IC50 = 99.9 μM for L. amazonensis and IC50 = 90.5 μM for L. braziliensis) and 3 (IC50 = 122.9 μM for L. amazonensis and IC50 = 109.8 μM for L. brasiliensis) were less active than dillapiole (1). Regarding the molecular properties, the conformational arrangement of the side chain, electronic features, and the hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance seem to be relevant for explaining the antileishmanial activity of dillapiole and its analogues. Dillapiole (1) presented relevant effects against Leishmania amazonensis and L. brasiliensis. Additionally, compound 1 reduced fibroblast cell viability, indicating that this compound might have antileishmanial effects on non-phagocytic cells in the latent phase of the disease. SAR studies showed that the conformational arrangement and electronic properties as well as the hydro/lipophilic balance seem to be crucial for antileishmanial activity.
