Accurate Mass method
[0214] High resolution masses were obtained using Maxis II HD mass spectrometer (Bruker).
NMR Methods
[0215] Proton (.sup.1H) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra were measured with an Oxford Varian 400/54 (400 MHz) spectrometer or a Bruker Avance II (300 MHz) spectrometer, or with a Bruker Avance III (500 MHz) spectrometer with residual protonated solvent (CHCl.sub.3 7.26; MeOH 3.30; DMSO 2.49) as standard. The NMR data of the synthesized examples are in agreement with their corresponding structural assignments.
2.1 Experimental Examples of the Invention
2.1.1. Synthetic Methods
[0216] ##STR00009##
[0217] The majority of the compounds of the invention were synthesised according to general scheme 1 described above, where M1 is a chlorosulfonylation reaction of a commercially available 6-substituted quinoxaline-2,3 (1H,4H)-dione to give a sulfonyl chloride of formula A. The sulfonamide formation is the coupling step M2 between sulfonyl chloride A and a commercially available aniline derivative to give compounds of formula B. When substituent R.sup.6 is an amine, the non-commercially available anilines E were synthesised from a fluoro- or chloro-nitrobenzene derivative as described in general scheme 2. When substituent R.sup.6 is a halogen, a further Suzuki coupling could be performed to yield biaryls of formula C, where R.sup.6 is an aryl or hereroaryl group, identified by Ar in general scheme 1. Similarly, a Buchwald reaction could be performed to obtain tertiary anilines, as an alternative to what highlighted in general scheme 2. It should be apparent to a person skilled in the art that the sequence of the synthetic steps is dependent on starting materials availability and functional group compatibility and could vary from compound to compound. In particular, steps M2 and M3 could easily be reversed to obtain in a first instance a biarylaniline or a para-substituted dianiline intermediate, which could then be reacted with sulphonyl chlorides A to obtain the final compounds of formula C. Similar conditions as for described methods M2 and M3 can be applied.

[0365] Further compounds exemplifying the invention are described in Table 2.
[0366] When not otherwise specified, it should be assumed that M1, M2, sometimes followed by M3 were used to yield the target compounds. This is highlighted in the Synthetic Sequence column. Occasionally, as specified in the table, a further deprotection or hydrolysis step was required to obtain the final product, as would be recognized by a person skilled in the art. It should also be apparent to a person skilled in the art that reaction conditions such as temperature, dilution, reaction time or work-up procedures, including pH adjustment, are dependent on reaction partners and functional group compatibility and could vary from compound to compound. For commercially available compounds, the CAS number is given.

3. Hemolysin Alpha-Based Ca.SUP.2+.-Influx Assay
[0367] The assay is based on the Fluo-4 NW Calcium Assay Kit (#F.sub.36205) from Thermo Scientific. Here the effect of hemolysin alpha from Staphylococcus aureus was monitored by loading non adherent U397 cells with the Ca.sup.2+-sensitive dye Fluo-4 hemolysin alpha addition leads to the formation of Ca.sup.2+ permissive pores in the membrane of the U397 cells which results in a dose dependent increase of fluorescence.
[0368] Briefly, the protocol described here was applied for screening and activity determination in a low-volume 384-well microtiter plate with cell culture treated surface. For high-throughput application in the 1536-well microtiter plate format, volumes of the reagent mixes were adjusted, maintaining the volumetric ratio. [0369] a. Hemolysin alpha was diluted with PBS from its stock to a working concentration of 35 nM. U937 cells were diluted in assay buffer (HBBS, 20 mM HEPES) to 4000 cells/l. 1 Fluo-4 NW dye loading solution was prepared according to manufacturer's specifications including 5 mM probenecid to reduce background fluorescence. [0370] b. Chemical compounds were applied into empty assay plates using contact-free acoustic droplet-dispensing (Echo520 Labcyte Inc., Sunnyvale CA) from 10 mM compound stocks in 100% DMSO, to a final concentration of 10 UM or in serial dilution series of the required concentration range. Equal amounts of DMSO without any compound were added to control samples. [0371] c. 5 L of the U937 cells+5 l of 1 Fluo-4 NW dye load were dispensed using a Multidrop dispenser (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham MA) into the wells of a microtiter plate. The plate was centrifuged at 1000 rpm and incubated at 37 C. for 30 min followed by an incubation step at r. t. for another 30 min. [0372] d. The reaction was started by addition of 4 l of hemolysin alpha to a final concentration of 10 nM followed by a centrifugation step for 1 min at 1000 rpm. No hemolysin alpha was added to negative control samples. [0373] e. After incubation at room temperature for 4 h the generated signal was measured with an EnVision plate reader (Perkin Elmer, Waltham MA), using excitation at 485 nm and an emission at 535 nm.
4. LDH-Glo Cytotoxicity Assay
[0374] The LDH-Glo-Cytotoxicity Assay is a bioluminescent plate-based assay to quantify the release of cellular Lactate Dehydogenase (LDH) into the assay medium upon plasma membrane damage by hemolysin treatment of the cells. LDH in the supernatant reduces an added substrate to generate luciferin which is converted into a bioluminescent signal by the Ultra Glo Luciferase (Promega).
[0375] A549-Cells (DSMZ, #ACC107), that are used for the assay, are maintained in RPMI 1640 cell culture medium+glutamine (PAN Biotech GmbH, Aidenbach, Germany; #P04-22100; P04-05500) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (Capricorn, #FBS-11A) and are grown at 37 C., 5% CO.sub.2.
[0376] For the LDH assay compounds or DMSO are prediluted at different concentrations in l cell culture medium RPMI 1640+5% FCS+10 mM HEPES in black uclear 384-well-plates (Greiner BioOne). Shortly afterwards 10 l of 70 nM S. aureus Alpha hemolysin (IBT BIOSERVICES, #1401-002) was added to get a final assay concentration of 20 nM. After adding 10 l of A549 cells (20.000 cells/well diluted in assay medium) the assay plates (total assay volume: 35 l) were incubated for 5 h at 37 C./5% CO.sub.2 in humidified chambers in order to allow hemolysis.
[0377] As a positive internal control, we use the hemolysin antibody (IBT Bioservices, #0210-001) at a concentration range from 0.005-10 g/ml and determine the IC50 concentration. The standard IC50 concentration for the antibody is approximately 50 ng/ml.
[0378] The determination of the LDH concentration was done after the 5 h incubation time according to the instructions of the One Glo Luminescent assay Kit (Promega, cat no. G7891). Shortly, 20 l of cell culture supernatant were incubated in a separated black clear 384-well plate at 25 C. for 20 min, mixed with 20 l of the LDH reagent using an orbital shaker (1 min, 300 rpm) and further incubated for 5 min at 2 C. The reaction was stopped by addition of 10 l stop-reagent, provided with the assay kit. Shortly afterwards the fluorescent signal was measured by Victor X5 plate reader (Perkin Elmer) using the filters 531 nm (extinction) and 590 nm (emission). EC.sub.50 values were calculated with the software Excel Fit (IDBS, Guildford, UK) from 3-fold dilution series comprising at least 8 concentrations in duplicates.
