Abstract

Iron chelators represent a group of structurally different compounds sharing the ability of iron binding. The group has been evolving in recent years mainly due to novel experimental indications associated with variable requirements for iron chelators. A group of synthetic 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-acyl-pyrazol-5-ones has been known for many years but data on their potential biological activity are rather limited. In this study, we analysed a series of these compounds for their iron-chelating properties as well as for their effects on iron based Fenton chemistry. For the former ferrozine spectrophotometric method and for the latter HPLC method with salicylic acid were used. All of the tested compounds were very efficient ferric chelators but their ferrous-chelating effects differed according to the acyl substitution. Notwithstanding various ferrous chelation activities, the individual Fe2+-affinities were not significantly different through pathophysiologically relevant pH conditions and some of the tested substances were more potent ferrous chelators at pH 4.5 than clinically used standard deferoxamine. Of particular interest is H(2)QpyQ /2,6-bis[4(1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-one)carbonyl]pyridine/which iron-chelating affinity increased when pH was decreasing. In spite of ferrous chelation differences, most of the tested acylpyrazolones were similarly active powerful inhibitors of Fenton chemistry as deferoxamine. Conclusively, acylpyrazolones are efficient iron chelators and H(2)QpyQ may represent a prototype of novel specific chelators designated particularly for chelation at acidic conditions.
