Diverse Biological Activity

The pharmacophore 2-aminothiazole has an interesting role in pharmaceutical chemistry as this led to the synthesis of many types of compounds with diverse biological activity. Schiff base derivatives at the same time contribute to drug evolution importantly. In this review, the Schiff base derivatives of 2-aminothiazole formed and some of their metal complexes are being focused on, and the antimicrobial and anticancer activity of them is being illustrated.

Background and Objective: Due to the well-documented anti-proliferative activity of 2-thiohydantoin incorporated with pyrazole, oxadiazole, quinazoline, urea, β-naphthyl carbamate and Schiff bases, they are noteworthy in pharmaceutical chemistry. Methods: An efficient approach for the synthesis of a novel series of 2-thiohydantoin derivatives incorporated with pyrazole and oxadiazole has proceeded via the reaction of the acyl hydrazide with chalcones and/or triethyl orthoformate. Schiff bases were synthesized by the reaction of the acyl hydrazide with different aromatic aldehydes. Moreover, Curtius rearrangement was applied to the acyl azide to obtain the urea derivative, quinazoline derivative, and carbamate derivative. Results: The synthesized compounds structures were discussed and confirmed depending on their spectral data. The anticancer activity of these heterocyclic compounds was evaluated against the breast cancer cell line (MCF-7), where they showed variable activity. Compound 5d found to have a superior anticancer activity, where it has (IC50 = 2.07 ± 0.13 μg/mL) in comparison with the reference drug doxorubicin that has (IC50 = 2.79 ± 0.07 μg / mL). Then compound 5d subjected to further studies such as cell cycle analysis and apoptosis. Apoptosis was confirmed by the upregulation of Bax, downregulation of Bcl-2, and the increase of the caspase 3/7percentage. Conclusion: Insertion of pyrazole, oxadiazole and, quinazoline moieties with 2-thiohydantoin moiety led to the enhancement of its anti-proliferative activity. Hence they can be used as anticancer agents.

Objective: Conjugating quinolones with different bioactive pharmacophores to obtain potent anticancer active agents. Methods: Fused pyrazolopyrimidoquinolines 3a-d, Schiff bases 5, 6a-e, two hybridized systems: pyrazolochromenquinoline 7 and pyrazolothiazolidinquinoline 8, different substituted thiazoloquinolines 13-15 and thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridine derivatives 16a-c were synthesized. Their chemical structures were characterized through spectral and elemental analysis, cytotoxic activity on five cancer cell lines, caspase-3 activation, tubulin polymerization inhibition and cell cycle analysis were evaluated. Results: Four compounds 3b, 3d, 8 and 13 showed potent activity than doxorubicin on HCT116 and three compounds 3b, 3d and 8 on HEPG2. These promising derivatives showed increase in the level of caspase-3. The trifloromethylphenyl derivatives of pyrazolopyrimidoquinolines 3b and 3d showed considerable tubulin polymerization inhibitory activity. Both compounds arrested cell cycle at G2/M phase and induced apoptosis. Conclusion: Compounds 3b and 3d can be considered as promising anticancer active agents with 70% of colchicine activity on tubulin polymerization inhibition and represent hopeful leads that deserve further investigation and optimization.

Potential Inhibitors

The study of human protoporphyrinogen oxidase (hPPO) inhibition can contribute significantly to a better understanding of some pathogeneses (e.g., porphyria, herbicide exposure) and the development of anticancer agents. Therefore, we prepared new potential inhibitors with Schiff base structural motifs (2-hydroxybenzaldehyde-based Schiff bases 9–13 and chromanone derivatives 17–19) as structurally relevant to PPO herbicides. The inhibitory activities (represented by the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values) and enzymatic interactions (represented by the hPPO melting temperatures) of these synthetic compounds and commercial PPO herbicides used against hPPO were studied by a protoporphyrin IX fluorescence assay. In the case of PPO herbicides, significant hPPO inhibition and changes in melting temperature were observed for oxyfluorten, oxadiazon, lactofen, butafenacil, saflufenacil, oxadiargyl, chlornitrofen, and especially fomesafen. Nevertheless, the prepared compounds did not display significant inhibitory activity or changes in the hPPO melting temperature. However, a designed model of hPPO inhibitors based on the determined IC50 values and a docking study (by using AutoDock) found important parts of the herbicide structural motif for hPPO inhibition. This model could be used to better predict PPO herbicidal toxicity and improve the design of synthetic inhibitors.
