Pyrrole compounds are important classes of heterocycle compounds in the search for effective agents against multidrug-resistant bacterial infections. With an approach to reduce the growing bacterial resistance and to discover more active antibacterial agents with fewer side effects, the previously synthesized 1,2,3,4-tetrasubstituted pyrrole derivatives were screened for their in vitro antibacterial activity by disc diffusion method against some gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, for the first time. The results indicated that compounds 4, 11, and 12 showed promising antibacterial activity against gram-positive S. aureus and B. cereus bacteria equal or more than standard as tetracycline. Molecular docking studies were employed both to explain the activity results of the more active compounds at the level of protein-ligand interactions and to compare the interactions of these compounds with the interactions of tetracycline. The relationship between structure and antibacterial activity was also discussed.

In this work, some 2-phenyl quinoline-4-carboxamide derivatives (5a-j) were synthesized via base catalyzed Pfitzinger reaction of isatin and acetophenone followed by C-N coupling reaction using POCl3 and assessed them for their in vitro antimicrobial and anticancer activity. The structure of newly synthesized compound were established by FT-IR, 1H & 13C NMR and Mass spectrometric analysis. The synthesized carboxamides were subjected to preliminary in vitro antibacterial activity as well as for antifungal activity. Results of antibacterial activity were compared with standard antibacterial (ciprofloxocin) and antifungal (fluconozole). Among the tested compounds, 5d, 5f and 5h exhibited promising activity with zone of inhibition ranging from 10 to 25 mm. Further, the anticancer activity determined using MTT assay against two cancer cell lines. Compounds 5b, 5d, 5f and 5h showed good anticancer activity among all the other derivatives. In order to correlate the in vitro results, in silico ADME and Molecular docking studies were carried out for (5a-j). ADME properties results showed that all the compounds obey rule of Five rule except 5a, 5e and 5g compound. Molecular docking studies of the synthesized compounds showed good binding affinity through hydrogen bond interactions with key residues on active sites as well as neighboring residues within the active site of chosen target proteins viz. antibacterial, antifungal and anticancer. Comparison of both results of in silico as well as in vitro investigation suggests that the synthesized compounds may act as potential antimicrobial as well as anticancer agents.

A series of 2-ethoxy-4-{[3-alkyl(aryl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-on-4-yl]-azomethine}-phenyl benzenesulfonates (3) were synthesized from the reactions of 3-alkyl(aryl)-4-amino-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones (1) with 2-ethoxy-4-formyl-phenyl benzenesulfonate (2). N-acetyl derivatives (4) of compounds 3 were also obtained. Then, the compounds 3 have been treated with morpholine and 2,6-dimethylmorpholine in the presence of formaldehyde to synthesize 2-ethoxy-4-{[1-(morpholine-4-yl-methyl)-3-alkyl(aryl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-on-4-yl]-azomethine}-phenyl benzenesulfonates (5) and 2-ethoxy-4-{[1-(2,6-dimethylmorpholine-4-yl-methyl)-3-alkyl(aryl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-on-4-yl]-azomethine}-phenyl benzenesulfonates (6), respectively. The structures of twenty-six new compounds were identified by using elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and MS spectral data. In addition, in vitro antibacterial activities of the new compounds were evaluated against six bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus and Klepsiella pneumonia according to agar well diffusion method. Furthermore, in order to determine the possible antidiabetic properties of the synthesized 1,2,4-triazole derivatives, inhibition effects on the AR enzyme were investigated and molecular docking studies were carried out to determine the receptor-ligand interactions of these compounds. IC50 values of triazole-derived compounds (6a, 6b, 6d-g) against AR enzyme were determined as 0.95 µM, 0.75 µM, 1.83 µM, 0.62 µM, 1.05 µM, 1.06 µM, respectively. Considering the docking scores and binding energies obtained docking studies, it has been shown that molecules fit very well to the active site of the AR enzyme.

Background: Piperine or piperic acid was isolated from fruits of Piper nigrum and had been reported as pharmacological valuable bioactive constituents. Keeping in view, a series of piperic acid-based N heterocyclic’s derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity. All these prepared ligands were docked to study the molecular interactions and binding affinities against the protein PDB ID: 5 CDP. Objective: To meet the real need of newer antibacterials, we designed and synthesized scaffolds with good antibacterial activity. The obtained antibacterials have been validated in terms of ligand-protein interaction and thus prove to build up as good drug candidates. Methods: Antibacterial activity of the compounds were carried out against bacterial strains; three Grampositive and three Gram-negative bacterial strains using agar well diffusion method. In silico molecular docking studies were carried out using Glide (grid-based ligand docking) program incorporated in the Schrödinger molecular modeling package by Maestro 11.0. Results: Compounds BC 28, BC 32, and BC 33 exhibits antibacterial activity along with Glide docking score of -8.580, -9.753 kcal/mol, and -8.813 kcal/mol, respectively. Docking studies explained hydrogen bonding, pi-pi, and hydrophobic interactions with amino acid residues which explain the binding affinity of the most docked ligand with protein. Conclusion: In the present study, substituted piperic acid was synthesized and evaluated as antibacterial compared with standard drug ciprofloxacin and results interpret that having nitrogen as heteroatom in the heterocyclic nucleus found to be more potent than the standard drug ciprofloxacin. On comparing, substitution with electron-donating groups generates excellent antibacterial potential against the bacterial strains. It was also proved that having substitution with electron-donating groups on meta and para position with triazoline ring system exhibits greater potential while compounds which have a meta- electron-donating substituent showed lesser activity with thiazole nucleus. In addition, structure-based activities of the prepared analogs were discussed under Structure-Activity Relationship (SAR) section.
