A series of 2-hydroxy-3-chrysino dithiocarbamate derivatives (3a–k) were designed, synthesized, and characterized for their structure determination by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS (ESI) spectral data. They were screened for their in vitro biological activities against a panel of selected bacterial and fungal strains. These antimicrobial studies indicate that some of the analogues manifested significant activity compared to standard drugs. Among the synthetic analogues (3a–k), compounds 3d, 3f, and 3j exhibited very good antibacterial activity and compounds 3d, 3f, and 3h showed very good antifungal activity compared to the standard drugs penicillin and itrazole, respectively. The compounds 3e, 3g, and 3h showed moderate antibacterial activity and the compounds 3j and 3k showed moderate antifungal activity. Molecular docking studies were performed and the experimental antimicrobial screening results were also correlated with the binding energy values obtained by molecular docking. The synthesized chrysin analogues (3a–k) have obeyed Lipinski’s “rule of five” and have drug-likeness.

Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines 5a–c, 9a–c and 13a–i were synthesized for evaluation of their in vitro antimicrobial properties against some microorganisms and their immunomodulatory activity. The biological activities of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines showed that the pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines (5c, 9a, 9c, 13a, 13c, 13d, 13e and 13h) displayed promising antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activities. Studying the in silico predicted physicochemical, pharmacokinetic, ADMET and drug-likeness properties for the pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines 5a–c, 9a–c and 13a–i confirmed that most of the compounds (i) were within the range set by Lipinski’s rule of five, (ii) show higher gastrointestinal absorption and inhibition of some CYP isoforms, and (iii) have a carcinogenicity test that was predicted as negative and hERG test that presented medium risk. Moreover, the molecular docking study demonstrated that the compounds 5c, 9a, 9c, 13a, 13c, 13d, 13e and 13h are potent inhibitors of 14-alpha demethylase, transpeptidase and alkaline phosphatase enzymes. This study could be valuable in the discovery of a new series of drugs.

Abstract Cyclic imides such as succinimides, maleimides, glutarimides, phthalimides and their derivatives contain an imide ring and a general structure -CO-N(R)-CO- that confers hydrophobicity and neutral characteristic. A diversity of biological activities and pharmaceutical uses have been attributed to them, such as antibacterial, antifungal, antinociceptive, anticonvulsant, antitumor. In spite of these activities, much of their action mechanisms at molecular and cellular levels remain to be elucidated. We now show the effects of several related cyclic imides: maleimides (S2, S2.1, S2.2, S3), glutarimides (S4, S5, S6), 4-aminoantipyrine derivatives (L1, F1, AL1, F1.14, F1.2) and sulfonated succinimides (RO1, FA, FE, FD, MC, DMC) on isolated rat liver mitochondria, B16-F10 melanoma cell line, peritoneal macrophages and different bacterial streams. The effects on mitochondrial respiratory parameters, cell viability and antibacterial activity were also evaluated. The results indicated that S3, S5 and S6 caused an increased oxygen consumption in the presence of ADP (state III) or its absence (state IV), while all other compounds decreased those parameters at different degrees of inhibition. All the compounds decreased the respiratory control coefficient (RCC). Loss of cell viability of peritoneal macrophages and the B16- F10 cell line was observed, L1 and S2.1 being more effective. S1, S2, S3, L1 and F1 compounds showed antibacterial activity at experimental concentrations.

Sulphonamides and carboxamides have great pharmacological importance. The purpose of the study was to synthesize alanine-derived bioactive sulphonamides bearing carboxamides and evaluate their biological activities. The reaction of p-toluenesulphonyl chloride with L-alanine afforded compound 1, which was acetylated to obtain compound 2. The chlorination and ammonolysis of compound 2 gave the carboxamide backbone (3) which was coupled with aryl/heteroaryl halides to afford the hybrid compounds 4, 5 and 6. Structures were confirmed by FTIR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR spectra and elemental analytical data. The in vitro antimicrobial properties were determined by agar dilution, and the antioxidant properties were also investigated. Molecular docking interactions of the analogues were determined using PyRx. Compounds 4, 5 and 6 exhibited excellent in vitro antimicrobial properties in the range of 0.5-1.0mg/ml while compounds 1and 2 had half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 1.11±0.15µg/ml and 1.12±0.13µg/ml respectively. For the molecular docking studies, compounds 5 and 6 displayed the best antitrypanosomal activity with binding affinities of -13.95 and -13.51kcal/mol respectively while compound 4 showed the highest in silico antimalarial activity having binding affinity of -11.95kcal/mol. All the alanine derived sulphonamides were observed to be potential antimicrobial, antioxidant, antitrypanosomal and antimalarial agents following the biological activities studies.

A new series of quinoline derivatives 5–12 were efficiently synthesized via one-pot multicomponent reaction (MCR) of resorcinol, aromatic aldehydes, β-ketoesters, and aliphatic/aromatic amines under solvent-free conditions. All products were obtained in excellent yields, pure at low-cost processing, and short time. The structures of all compounds were characterized by means of spectral and elemental analyses. In addition, all the synthesized compounds 5–12 were in vitro screened for their antioxidant and antibacterial activity. Moreover, in silico molecular docking studies of the new quinoline derivatives with the target enzymes, human NAD (P)H dehydrogenase (quinone 1) and DNA gyrase, were achieved to endorse their binding affinities and to understand ligand–enzyme possible intermolecular interactions. Compound 9 displayed promising antioxidant and antibacterial activity, as well as it was found to have the highest negative binding energy of -9.1 and -9.3 kcal/mol for human NAD (P)H dehydrogenase (quinone 1) and DNA gyrase, respectively. Further, it complied with the Lipinski’s rule of five, Veber, and Ghose. Therefore, the quinoline analogue 9 could be promising chemical scaffold for the development of future drug candidates as antioxidant and antibacterial agents.

Background:: Most of the currently available pharmaceutical drugs are either natural products or analogues of natural products. Flavonoids are plant based natural polyphenolic compounds which exhibit a wide range of biological activities. Chrysin, a natural flavone, exhibits several biological activities like antiallergic, anti-inflammatory and anticancer. Many efforts were made to enhance the biological activity of chrysin. In continuation of our work on synthetic modifications of chrysin, amino-alcohol containing heterocyclic moiety is linked to chrysin at C (7) position to enhance its biological activity. Methods:: A series of new C (7) modified analogues of chrysin (3a-k) have been designed and synthesized in two steps. Chrysin, on reacting with epichlorohydrin in the presence of K2CO3 in DMF gave epoxide (2) which was made to react with cyclic secondary amines in the presence of LiBr to form the designed products (3a-k). All the synthesized compounds (3a-k) were well characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectral data. The synthesized analogues (3a-k) were screened for their in vitro biological activities against a panel of bacterial and fungal strains. Molecular docking studies were also performed on these compounds with E. coli FabH (1HNJ) and S. cerevisiae (5EQB) enzymes, to support the observed biological activities. Results:: A series of new 2-hydroxy 3-amino chrysin derivatives (3a-k) were synthesized in two steps, starting with chrysin and their structures were characterized by spectral analysis. In vitro biological activities of these analogues against a panel of bacterial and fungal strains indicated that some of the derivatives manifested significant activities compared to standard drugs. Molecular docking and binding energy values were also correlated with experimental antimicrobial screening results. Lipinski’s “rule of five” is also obeyed by these analogues (3a-k) and exhibit drug-likeness. Conclusion:: In the present study, a series of new C (7) modified chrysin analogues (3a-k) were synthesized and tested for their in vitro antimicrobial activities. These biological studies indicated that some of the derivatives exhibited moderate to good antimicrobial activities compared to standard drugs. Molecular docking studies performed on these compounds correlated with the experimental antimicrobial activities. The results obtained in the study will be useful in establishing new drug entities to control the pathogenic epidemics.

Background: Benzothiazoles possess a vast sphere of biological activities including anti- inflammatory, antibacterial activities whereas triazoles display various pharmacological properties including antimicrobial and antitubercular activities. Hence, triazole conjugated benzothiazole side-chain anticipating their interesting biological properties has been focused upon. Objective: The objective of the current work is synthesis and biological evaluation of a new series of benzothiazole appended triazole derivatives. Methods: The target compounds were prepared via a multi-step method involving the treatment of 2-amino benzothiazole with hydrazine followed by cyclization with carbon disulfide to give the corresponding triazol-2-thiol derivatives and then alkylation of these derivatives. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR, Mass, 1H and 13C NMR spectra and were screened for their antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-tubercular (anti-TB) activities in vitro. These molecules were also docked into the enoyl acyl carrier reductase (Inha, PDB ID-1ZID) in silico. Results: While all the synthesized compounds were active against M. tuberculosis at 50 μg/ml, the pyrrolidine and piperidine appended benzothiazolyltriazoles showed the superior activity (MIC values 12.5 to 1.6 μg/ml). Compound 5a (5-CH3 with piperidine), 5b (7-CH3 with piperidine) and 7b (7-CH3 with pyrrolidine) showed good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus with MIC value 31.25μg/ml, while compounds 7a (5-CH3 with pyrrolidine), 6b (7-CH3 with morpholine) and 8c (7-Br with pyridine) exhibited good antibacterial activity against E-coli with MIC value 62.5μg/ml. Compounds 7b (7-CH3 with pyrrolidine) and 5c (7-Br with piperidine) showed good anti-oxidant activities with IC50 values 93.25 and 82.25, respectively. Notably, these compounds were non-toxic to the normal cells even at high concentrations with IC50 value 238μg/ml. Conclusion: The compound 7b, a benzothiazolyltriazole having a pyrrolidine group (five membered ring) attached to two CH2 groups and methyl substituent at 7th position of the benzothiazole ring emerged as a novel and promising hit molecule that showed anti-TB, antimicrobial and antiinflammatory activities in vitro.

Dihydropyrimidinone and dihydropyrimidine derivatives are reported to possess broad biological activities. Many synthetic samples have been studied as antibacterial, antiviral, and anticancer agents. We decided to synthesize novel compounds of new pyrimidine derivatives. The present work involves the synthesis of new dihydropyridine derivatives. The starting vanillin, compound (1) was used as the key intermediate to prepare the 5-acetyl-4-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl pyrimidine-2(1H)-one(2),Ethyl 4-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxylate (3), 4-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro quinazoline-2(1H)-one (4), respectively, through the reaction with urea and acetylacetone or ethyl acetoacetate or cyclohexanone but 4-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro quinazoline-2(1H)-thione (5) reacted with thiourea and cyclohexanone. FTIR,1H-NMRand13C-NMR spectroscopy characterized all the synthesized compounds. The synthesized derivatives were screened for their in vitro, antibacterial activity against two gram-positive bacteria: Bacillus subtilis, and Staphylococcus aureus and two gram-negative bacteria: Klebsiella pneumonia and Salmonella typhi and the results showed that most of them have good antibacterial activity. While their antifungal activity against three fungi species: (Aspergillus fumigates, Aspergillus niger, and Rhizopus), revealed that compounds (1-5) displayed the most potent antifungal activity. Density functional theory ( DFT) calculations for the synthesized compounds (1-5) were conducted, using a molecular structure with optimized geometry. Highest occupied molecular orbital/lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energies and structures are demonstrated. The antimicrobial activity indicates that compounds 3 and 4 are the most active than the compounds 2 and 5. Molecular docking revealed that compounds (4) and (5), with cyclohexyl groups are important to block the active centers of glucose -6-phosphate synthase in the bacteria and fungi.
