چکیده مقاله
Diamondoids are cage-like hydrocarbon molecules that can be described as nanometer-
sized, hydrogen-terminated diamond hydrocarbons, also known as nanodiamonds [1]. Adamantane,
with the formula C 10 H 16 , is the smallest diamondoid. Adamantane derivatives have found numerous
applications in medicinal chemistry. There are eight adamantane-based drug now in clinical use for
the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, viral infections and type-2 diabetes. On the other
hand, adamantane's lipophilic properties make it useful as a "liphophilic bullet" to modify existing
drugs. Adamantane modifications are utilized in drug development to increase lipophilicity and
stability. This enhancement improves the pharmacokinetics of drug and facilitates its passage
through cell membranes [2].
Dihydropyrimidinones (DHPMs) have widespread pharmacological activities, and are regarded as
one of the most important groups of drug-like scaffolds [3]. Monastrol, with a dihydropyrimidone
scaffold, is a cell-permeable small molecule inhibitor that targets the mitotic kinesin Eg5, a motor
protein essential for mitotic spindle bipolarity. Monastrol is a cell-permeable small molecule with a
dihydropyrimidone (DHPM) scaffold that specifically inhibits the mitotic kinesin Eg5 protein. This
inhibition leads to cell cycle arrest in mitosis. In this work, the novel adamantane-modified
monastrol derivative was synthesized through the Biginelli reaction of adamantly-containing active
methylene compound, 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde, and thiourea The structure of product was
completely characterized using FT-IR, 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy.
