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.

In the present study, a general approach for the synthesis of 1-(1H-indol-3-yl)-3,3-dimercaptoprop-2-en-1-one (1) and 5-(1H-indol-3-yl)-3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione (2) was performed. They are currently used as efficient precursors for the synthesis of some new compounds bearing five- and/or six-membered heterocyclic moieties, e.g., chromenol (3, 4), 3,4-dihydroquinoline (7, 8) and thiopyran (10, 12)-based indole core. In addition, molecular docking studies were achieved, which showed that all the newly synthesized compounds are interacting with the active site region of the target enzymes, the targets UDP-N-acetylmuramatel-alanine ligase (MurC), and human lanosterol14α-demethylase, through hydrogen bonds and pi-stacked interactions. Among these docked ligand molecules, the compound (9) was found to have the minimum binding energy (−11.5 and −8.5 Kcal/mol) as compared to the standard drug ampicillin (−8.0 and −8.1 Kcal/mol) against the target enzymes UDP-N-acetylmuramatel-alanine ligase (MurC), and Human lanosterol14α-demethylase, respectively. Subsequently, all new synthesized analogues were screened for their antibacterial activities against Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis), and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli), as well as for antifungal activities against Candida albicans and Aspergillus flavus. The obtained data suggest that the compounds exhibited good to excellent activity against bacterial and fungi strains. The compound (E)-2-(6-(1H-indole-3-carbonyl)-5-thioxotetrahydrothieno [3,2-b]furan-2(3H)-ylidene)-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-3-oxopropanedithioic acid (9) showed a high binding affinity as well as an excellent biological activity. Therefore, it could serve as the lead for further optimization and to arrive at potential antimicrobial agent.

Abstract In diabetes, increased accumulation of sorbitol has been associated with diabetic complications through polyol pathway. Aldose reductase (AR) is one of the key factors involved in reduction of glucose to sorbitol, thereby its inhibition is considered to be important for the management of diabetic complications. In the present study, a series of seven 4-oxo-2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-3-yl acetamide derivatives 3(a-g) were synthesized by the reaction of 5-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)-4-oxo-2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-3-yl acetic acid (2a) and 5-(4-methoxybenzylidene)-4-oxo-2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-3-yl acetic acid (2b) with different amines. The synthesized compounds 3(a-g) were investigated for their in vitro aldehyde reductase (ALR1) and aldose reductase (ALR2) enzyme inhibitory potential. Compound 3c, 3d, 3e, and 3f showed ALR1 inhibition at lower micromolar concentration whereas all the compounds were more active than the standard inhibitor valproic acid. Most of the compounds were active against ALR2 but compound 3a and 3f showed higher inhibition than the standard drug sulindac. Overall the most potent compound against aldose reductase was 3f with an inhibitory concentration of 0.12 ± 0.01 µM. In vitro results showed that vanillin derivatives exhibited better activity against both aldehyde reductase and aldose reductase. The molecular docking studies were carried out to investigate the binding affinities of synthesized derivatives with both ALR1 and ALR2.

The synthesis of 4-amino-2-arylamino-5-(benzofuran-2-oyl)thiazoles 4a-h, as example of 2,4-diaminothiazole-benzofuran hybrids and an evaluation of their antidiabetic activity, by in vitro and computational methods, are reported. The synthesis of these diaminothiazoles was achieved mechano chemically by a rapid solvent-less method. Their antidiabetic activity was assessed by α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibition assays. The, IC50 value for α-glucosidase inhibition by 4-amino-5- (benzofuran-2-oyl)-2-(4-methoxyphenylamino)thiazole (4d) was found to be 20.04 µM and the IC50 value for α-amylase inhibition, 195.03 µM, whereas the corresponding values for reference acarbose were 53.38 µM and 502.03 µM, respectively. Molecular docking studies at the active sites of α- glucosidase and α-amylase showed that among the diaminothiazoles 4a-h now studied, 4-amino-5- (benzofuran-2-oyl)-2-(4-methoxyphenylamino)thiazole (4d) has the highest D-scores of -8.63 and -8.08 for α-glucosidase and for α-amylase, with binding energies -47.76 and -19.73 kcal/mol, respectively.

Background: Malaria remains a common life-threatening infectious disease across the globe due to the development of resistance by Plasmodium parasite against most antimalarial drugs. The situation demands new and effective drug candidates against Plasmodium. Objectives: The objective of this study is to design, synthesize and test novel quinoline based molecules against the malaria parasite. Methods: C2 and C8 modified quinoline analogs obtained via C-H bond functionalization approach were synthesized and evaluated for inhibition of growth of P. falciparum grown in human red blood cells using SYBR Green microtiter plate based screening. Computational molecular docking studies were carried out with top fourteen molecules using Autodoc software. Results: The biological evaluation results revealed good activity of quinoline-8-acrylate 3f (IC50 14.2 µM), and the 2-quinoline-α-hydroxypropionates 4b (IC50 6.5 µM), 4j (IC50 5.5 µM) and 4g (IC50 9.5 µM), against chloroquine sensitive Pf3D7 strain. Top fourteen molecules were screened also against chloroquine resistant Pf INDO strain and the observed resistant indices were found to lie between 1 and 7.58. Computational molecular docking studies indicated a unique mode of binding of these quinolines to Falcipain-2 and heme moiety, indicating these to be the probable targets of their antiplasmodial action. Conclusion: An important finding of our work is the fact that unlike Chloroquine which shows a resistance Index of 15, the resistance indices for the most promising molecules studied by us were about one indicating equal potency against drug sensitive and resistant strains of the malaria parasite.
