Dendrimeric compounds comprising amino acids, hyperbranched core compound, process for preparation of dendrimeric compounds comprising amino acids and hyperbranched core compound, and use thereof

Abstract

The invention provides dendrimeric compounds of the formula 1 comprising amino acids, wherein n is an integer of 1-4, T is an alkylidene —(CH2)2CONH(CH2)2- group, R2 is an —NH2 group or a moiety of a primary organic amine, and P is an amino acid and/or peptide moiety, wherein at least one hydrogen atom of at least one amino group is optionally replaced by a protective group, and a hyperbranched core compound of the formula 3, wherein T and R2 are as defined above. The invention provides also a process for the preparation of a dendrimeric compound and a hyperbranched core, wherein the process employs addition reactions of alkyl acrylate and a basic amino acid, and use of a hyperbranched core for the preparation of a dendrimeric compound comprising amino acids. The invention provides also use of dendrimeric compounds for the preparation of the medicament for inhibiting growth of bacterial cells, fungi and tumor cells.
