Abstract
In this paper, we have assessed the design, synthesis, characterization, anticancer properties, toxicity, and in silico study of 8-piperazinyl caffeinyl-triazolylmethyl derivatives as new caffeine hybrid conjugates. These compounds consist of four moieties comprising 8-caffeinyl, piperazinyl, 1,2,3-triazolyl, and alkyl substituents. The synthesis of these compounds was started by bromination of caffeine to attain 8-BC, SNAr reaction with piperazine to acquire 8-PC, N-propargylation of 8-PC and finally click Huisgen cycloaddition with diverse alkyl azides. These compounds were in vitro tested against two significant cancer cell lines comprising breast cancer MCF-7 (ATCC HTB-22) and melanoma cancer A-375 (ATCC CRL-1619) cell lines and activities compared with methotrexate (MTX) as a reference drug. Anticancer assessments indicated 12j (IC50 = 323 ± 2.6) and 12k (IC50 = 175 ± 3.2) were the most potent compounds against A-375 and MCF-7 cell growth, respectively and their activities were even stronger than MTX (IC50 = 418 ± 2 for A375 and IC50 = 343 ± 3.6 for MCF-7). Toxicities were determined by screening compounds against normal cell line HEK-293 (ATCC CRL-11268) and indicated that except 12i (IC50 = 371 ± 2.3), 12j (IC50 = 418 ± 2.4), and MTX (IC50 = 199 ± 2.4), all compounds are non-toxic. Docking was conducted for 12j and 12k and determined the strong binding affinities to B-RAF kinase and hDHFR enzymes, respectively. In silico pharmacokinetic and physiochemical profiles of tested compounds were investigated which indicated that most compounds obeyed Lipinski's rule of five (RO5). The DFT study on M06-2X/6-311G (d,p) was used to indicate HOMO, LUMO, MEP, and other parameters for a better understanding of 12j and 12k reactivity. Owing to anticancer properties, toxicity, and in silico data, 12j and 12k can be proposed for further research in the future.

Abstract
Recent advances in the environmentally benign synthesis of aromatic N-heterocycles are reviewed, focusing primarily on the application of catalytic methods and non-traditional activation. This account features two main parts: the preparation of single ring N-heterocycles, and their condensed analogs. Both groups include compounds with one, two and more N-atoms. Due to the large number of protocols, this account focuses on providing representative examples to feature the available methods.

Abstract
In this research the synthesis, characterization, anticancer and the cytotoxicity assessments of novel 8-caffeinyl-triazolylmethoxy hybrid conjugates have been described. These compounds are the first caffeine-1,2,3-triazolyl hybrid molecules that structurally are composed of three compartments comprising caffeinyl, 1,2,3-triazolyl and N-alkyl/aryl residues. The in vitro evaluations of synthesized compounds on cancer cell lines, including two breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-468 (ATCC HTB-22), MCF-7 (ATCC HTB-22), melanoma cell line A-375 (ATCC CRL-1619) and normal cell line HEK-293 (ATCC CRL-11268) have determined that 22c (IC50 < 12.5 μM) demonstrated potent activity against A375 and its toxicity is even stronger than methotrexate (MTX) as a standard drug. Additionally, 22c involves more selectivity than MTX regarding its non-toxicity for the HEK-293 cell line. Among the tested compounds against two breast cancer cell lines, 22f (IC50 = 136 ± 0.2 and 126 ± 0.6 μM for MCF-7 and MDA-MB-468, respectively) and 22i (IC50 = 165 ± 1.8 and 175 ± 1.4 μM for MCF-7 and MDA-MB-468, respectively) were the most potent compounds but their activities were less than MTX, moreover 22f showed more selectivity regarding its lower toxicity against HEK-293. Overall, 22f displayed general toxicity and selectivity on all tested cancer cell lines. The in silico physicochemical properties, pharmacokinetic profile, and drug likeness predictions were also carried out for all the studied compounds. Most new compounds exhibited zero violation of Lipinski's rule (RO5). A molecular docking study was also conducted to predict the binding mode and the interaction of 22c as the most active anti-melanoma entry with B-RAF V600E kinase enzyme. The docking results determined that 22c exhibited a strong binding affinity to the active site of the enzyme. These findings demonstrated 22c and 22f as potential future anticancer drug candidates.

Abstract
The simple and greener one-pot approach for the synthesis of biscoumarin derivatives using catalytic amounts of nano-MoO3 catalyst under mortar-pestle grinding was described. The use of non-toxic and mild catalyst, cost-effectiveness, ordinary grinding, and good to the excellent yield of the final product makes this procedure a more attractive pathway for the synthesis of biologically remarkable pharmacophores. Accordingly, biscoumarin derivatives were successfully extended in the developed protocols. Next, a computational investigation was performed to identify the potential biological targets of this set of compounds. In this case, first, a similarity search on different virtual libraries was performed to find an ideal biological target for these derivatives. Results showed that the synthesized derivatives can be α-glucosidase inhibitors. In another step, molecular docking studies were carried out against human lysosomal acid-alpha-glucosidase (PDB ID: 5NN8) to determine the detailed binding modes and critical interactions with the proposed target. In silico assessments showed the gold score value in the range of 17.56 to 29.49. Additionally, molecular dynamic simulations and the MM-GBSA method of the most active derivative against α-glucosidase were conducted to study the behavior of selected compounds in the biological system. Ligand 1 stabilized after around 30 ns and participated in various interactions with Trp481, Asp518, Asp616, His674, Phe649, and Leu677 residues.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:2383. [PMID: 35216495 PMCID: PMC8874673 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23042383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2022] [Revised: 02/14/2022] [Accepted: 02/15/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction is considered to be the most representative ligation process within the context of the "click chemistry" concept. This CuAAC reaction, which yields compounds containing a 1,2,3-triazole core, has become relevant in the construction of biologically complex systems, bioconjugation strategies, and supramolecular and material sciences. Although many CuAAC reactions are performed under homogenous conditions, heterogenous copper-based catalytic systems are gaining exponential interest, relying on the easy removal, recovery, and reusability of catalytically copper species. The present review covers the most recently developed copper-containing heterogenous solid catalytic systems that use solid inorganic/organic hybrid supports, and which have been used in promoting CuAAC reactions. Due to the demand for 1,2,3-triazoles as non-classical bioisosteres and as framework-based drugs, the CuAAC reaction promoted by solid heterogenous catalysts has greatly improved the recovery and removal of copper species, usually by simple filtration. In so doing, the solving of the toxicity issue regarding copper particles in compounds of biological interest has been achieved. This protocol is also expected to produce a practical chemical process for accessing such compounds on an industrial scale.

Abstract
The preparation, characterization and application of hydroxyapatite silica propyl bis aminoethoxy ethane cuprous complex (HASPBAEECC) as a novel hybrid nano-catalyst for synthesis of new benzimidazole-1,2,3-triazole hybrid analogues as promising antifungal agents have been described. HASPBAEECC is fully characterized by different microscopic, spectroscopic and physical techniques, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission, X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and FT-IR. The 'Click̕ Huisgen cycloaddition reaction of N-propargyl benzimidazole with diverse azidoalkyls in a THF-water media at ambient temperature provides the products in good-to-excellent yields using HASPBAEECC. HASPBAEECC is proved to be a stable, low cost, reusable and environmentally benign nanohybrid catalyst. The target compounds were screened against some pathogenic fungal comprising Candida albicans, Candida krusei, Candida parapsilosis, Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus in which it was determined that compounds 11f and 11 h have displayed promising antifungal activity similar to fluconazole as a reference drug. HASPBAEECC is a novel hybrid nano-catalyst for highly efficient synthesis of new benzimidazole-1,2,3- triazole hybrid analogues as antifungal agents.
