A series of binary metal complexes [halo, hydroxyl and methoxy sub-stituted bis (2-(E) acryloyl)naphthalen-1-yl)oxy)Cu(II) and Zn(II) (C1-C10)] of Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions derived from bi-coordinated hydroxylated 1,3-diaryl-2- -propene-1-ones were synthesized. The newly synthesized metal complexes were structurally determined by FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13CNMR, ESR spectral, XRD and TGA analysis. The FT-IR and ESR studies demonstrated that interactions between metal ions with ligands occur through carbonyl oxygen and deprotonated hydroxyl oxygen and corresponds to square-planar geometry for all complexes. In-vitro the metal complexes were screened and evaluated for their antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity. The complexes C1 and C4 showed the significant antimicrobial activity while the remaining complexes were showed the moderately antimicrobial activity against the tested pathogens. The complexes were evaluated for cytotoxic activity against the organism Artemia salina. The complexes C2, C3, C4 and C5 were showed the LC50 values as 630.45, 969.99, 921.94 and 918.41 ?M mL-1 respectively. Further complexes were evaluated for anticancer activity against liver cancer cell line (Hep G2) in comparison with 5-fluorouracil standard. The complex C5 showed the significant IC50 value 58.94 ?g mL-1. Therefore the present study is useful to develop the new class of antimicrobial and anticancer agents.

Objective: The main objective of this work was to synthesize and evaluate the novel 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole and 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazole derivatives for cytotoxic activities. Methods: The 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives 4a-h were synthesized by cyclization of N'-(substituted-benzylidene) isonicotinohydrazide 3a-e in refluxing acetic anhydride. The 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives 4a-h were converted into the corresponding 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazoles 5a-h using ammonia. All the synthesized compounds were identified, depending on the physical and spectral data. Title compounds were assessed for their cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell line (MCF-7) by using Sulforhodamine B (SRB) colorimetric assay. Results: All the synthesized compounds showed characteristic peaks in FTIR, 1HNMR and Mass spectral analysis. The results of the in vitro cytotoxic activity revealed that the compound 4c exhibited equipotent cytotoxic activity with an IC50 value of 8.04 µM when compared with that of standard drug doxorubicin (IC50= 8.02 µM). The reminder compounds have shown good to moderate cytotoxic activities when compared with that of a reference standard. Conclusion: We synthesized a series of title compounds in quantitative yields. Most derivatives showed moderate to good cytotoxic activity.

Background: Cancer is a global health burden and the leading cause of death across the world after cardiovascular disease. Objective: The objective of this work was the design, synthesis, and pharmacological evaluation of 2-phenylquinolin-4-amine derivatives as apoptosis inducers and anticancer agents. Method: In this study, we performed ligand-based pharmacophore modeling as a promising design strategy for the design of substituted quinoline derivatives as apoptosis inducers and anticancer agents. The designed compounds were synthesized as 2-phenylquinolin-4-amine derivatives and characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and Mass spectroscopy. Synthesized compounds were screened for apoptosis-inducing activity using caspase-3 activation and annexine-FITC assays and also screened against cancer cell line (HT-29) in an antiproliferative assay. Results: Synthesized compounds 7a and 7d demonstrated EC50 values of 6.06 and 6.69 µM in caspase-3 activation assay, respectively, and also showed late stage induction of apoptosis in annexine assay. Synthesized compounds 7a, 7d and 7i, also exhibited good antiproliferative activity with IC50 values of 8.12, 9.19, and 11.34 µM, respectively, which revealed that these are promising apoptosis inducers for the further development of new anticancer agents.

Background: Antimicrobial resistance is major global health problem, which is being rapidly deteriorating the quality of human health. Series of substituted N-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-(4-(6-fluorobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl)acetamide (3a-j) were synthesized from substituted N-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-chloroacetamide/bromopropanamide (2a-j) and 6-fluoro-3-(piperidin-4-yl)benzo[d]isoxazole (2) and further evaluated for their docking properties and antimicrobial activity. Methods: All synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR, NMR and Mass spectral analysis. All compounds were allowed to dock against different antimicrobial targets having PDB ID: 1D7U and against common antifungal target having PDB ID: 1EA1. Results: The compounds 3d and 3h were showed good activity against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA, resistance Gram-positive bacteria). All synthesized compounds showed good to moderate activity against selected bacterial and fungal microbial strains. If we compared the actual in-vitro antimicrobial activity and in-silico molecular docking study, we found that molecules 3i and 3h were more potent than the others. Conclusion: Our current study would definitely pave the new way towards designing and synthesis of more potent 2-aminobenzothiazoles derivatives.

We synthesized a novel anticancer agents based on mixed chelate copper (II) complexes, named Casiopeínas® has of general formula [Cu(N-N)(N-O)H2O]NO3 (where, N-N = diimines as 1,10- phenanthroline, 2,2-bipyridine, or substituted and N-O=aminoeidate or [Cu(N-N)(O-O)H2O]NO3 (where NN= diimines as 10-phenanthroline, 2,2-bipyridine or substituted Casiopeínas I, II, IV, V, VI, VII VIII and O-O=acetylacetonate, salicylaldehidate Casiopínas III). We evaluated the in vitro antitumor activity using a human cancer cell panel and some nurine cancer cells. Eleven Casiopeinas are evaluated in order to acquire some structure-activity correlations and some monodentated Casiopeinäs analogues; cisplatinum was used as control drug. The 50% growth inhibition observed is, in all cases reach with concentrations of Casiopeina's 10 or 100 times lower than cisplatinum. In a previous work we reported the induction of apoptosis by Casiopeina II. The results indicate that Casiopeinass are a promising new anticancer drug candidates to be developed further toward clinical trials.

Recent drug discovery efforts are highly focused towards identification, design, and synthesis of small molecules as anticancer agents. With this aim, we recently designed and synthesized novel compounds with high efficacy and specificity for the treatment of breast tumors. Based on the obtained results, we constructed a Volsurf+ (VS+) model using a dataset of 59 compounds able to predict the in vitro antitumor activity against MCF-7 cancer cell line for new derivatives. In the present paper, in order to further verify the robustness of this model, we report the results of the projection of more than 150 known molecules and 9 newly synthesized compounds. We predict their activity versus MCF-7 cell line and experimentally verify the in silico results for some promising chosen molecules in two human breast cell lines, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231.

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the growth, structure, spectral, solubility and biological activity of sodium cadmium oxalate dehydrate (NaCdOx) and cadmium oxalate trihydrate (CdOx) crystals prepared by a single diffusion method in the silica gel medium.Methods: The present crystals were grown using single diffusion methods and tested for XRD, UV absorption (190 to 1100 mm) and solubility (distilled water at 20-29 °C) studies. The antimicrobial efficacy of the grown samples at various concentrations (25, 50, 75 and 100 μg/ml) was studied against Streptococcus, (G+Ve), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (G-Ve) and Candida albicans (antifungal). The cytotoxicity evolution was carried out against human cervical cancer cell line (HeLa) using MTT assays.Results: The existing single crystals were successfully grown by silica gel technique. The solubility of sodium cadmium oxalate dehydrate (NaCdOx) was moderately good in deionized warm water. The FTIR spectral studies confirmed the chelating bands of the present samples and UV spectra showed the better the optical conductivity of as-grown crystals. The complexes showed good antimicrobial activity against all tested microbial strains and they exhibited a decrease in cytotoxicity activity.Conclusion: The gel method was suitable to grow metal complexes of legend crystals. The modification of structural properties of cadmium oxalate trihydrate (CdOx) by sodium doping was much improved the solubility, anticancer, antimicrobial activity and polarization by the high optical conductivity of sodium cadmium oxalate dehydrate (NaCdOx) compound. Hence sodium cadmium oxalate dehydrate (NaCdOx) might be a candidate for biomedical applications.
