Abstract
Based on the well-established pharmacophoric features required for histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition, a novel series of easy-to-synthesize benzimidazole-linked (thio)hydantoin derivatives was designed and synthesized as HDAC6 inhibitors. All target compounds potently inhibited HDAC6 at nanomolar levels with compounds 2c, 2d, 4b and 4c (IC50s = 51.84-74.36 nM) being more potent than SAHA reference drug (IC50 = 91.73 nM). Additionally, the most potent derivatives were further assessed for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against two human leukemia cells. Hydantoin derivative 4c was equipotent/superior to SAHA against MOLT-4/CCRF-CEM leukemia cells, respectively and demonstrated safety profile better than that of SAHA against non-cancerous human cells. 4c was also screened against different HDAC isoforms. 4c was superior to SAHA against HDAC1. Cell-based assessment of 4c revealed a significant cell cycle arrest and apoptosis induction. Moreover, western blotting analysis showed increased levels of acetylated histone H3, histone H4 and α-tubulin in CCRF-CEM cells. Furthermore, docking study exposed the ability of title compounds to chelate Zn2+ located within HDAC6 active site. As well, in-silico evaluation of physicochemical properties showed that target compounds are promising candidates in terms of pharmacokinetic aspects.

Abstract
Bacterial infections cause a variety of life-threatening diseases, and the continuous evolution of drug-resistant bacteria poses an increasing threat to current antimicrobial regimens. Gram-positive bacteria (GPB) have a wide range of genetic capabilities that allow them to adapt to and develop resistance to practically all existing antibiotics. Oxazolidinones, a class of potent bacterial protein synthesis inhibitors with a unique mechanism of action involving inhibition of bacterial ribosomal translation, has emerged as the antibiotics of choice for the treatment of drug-resistant GPB infections. In this review, we discussed the oxazolidinone antibiotics that are currently on the market and in clinical development, as well as an updated synopsis of current advances on their analogues, with an emphasis on innovative strategies for structural optimization of linezolid, structure-activity relationship (SAR), and safety properties. We also discussed recent efforts aimed at extending the activity of oxazolidinones to gram-negative bacteria (GNB), antitumor, and coagulation factor Xa. Oxazolidinone antibiotics can accumulate in GNB by a conjugation to siderophore-mediated β-lactamase-triggered release, making them effective against GNB.

Abstract
A tunable cascade reaction of ureidomalonates and alkenyl azlactones was disclosed, which gave rise to the construction of N-aroyl α-amino acid ester and imide-functionalized hydantoins in moderate to good yields and with excellent diastereoselectivities. The reaction pathway was precisely manipulated by organocatalysis and phase-transfer/sunlight relay catalysis, respectively, to realize the divergent synthesis. The successful gram-scale preparation of representative products exhibited the application potential of this protocol. Mechanistic studies indicated that the exchange and phase transfer of ethoxy anion played a key role in altering the reaction pathway, and sunlight might accelerate the oxidation process at the late stage of the reaction triggered by phase-transfer catalysis.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the most prominent causes of the rapidly growing mortality numbers worldwide. Cancer originates from normal cells that have acquired the capability to alter their molecular, biochemical, and cellular traits. The alteration of cell signaling enzymes, such as kinases, can initiate and amplify cancer progression. As a curative method, the targeted therapy utilized small molecules' capability to inhibit kinase's cellular function. This review provides a brief history (1999-2023) of Small Molecule Kinase Inhibitors (SMKIs) discovery with their molecular perspective. Furthermore, this current review also addresses the application and the development of hydantoin, thiazolidinedione, and rhodanine-based derivatives as kinase inhibitors toward several subclasses (EGFR, PI3K, VEGFR, Pim, c-Met, CDK, IGFR, and ERK) accompanied by their structure-activity relationship study and their molecular interactions. The present work summarizes and compiles all the important structural information essential for developing hydantoin, thiazolidinedione, and rhodanine-based kinase inhibitors to improve their potency in the future.

[3+2]-Cycloaddition of Nitrile Imines to Parabanic Acid Derivatives-An Approach to Novel Spiroimidazolidinediones. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 25:18. [PMID: 38203188 PMCID: PMC10778941 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25010018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Approximately 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of imidazolidine derivatives containing exocyclic double bonds is a convenient method of creating spiro-conjugated molecules with promising anticancer activity. In this work, the derivatives of parabanic acid (2-thioxoimidazolidine-4,5-diones and 5-aryliminoimidazolidine-2,4-diones) were first investigated as dipolarophiles in the reactions with nitrile imines. The generation of nitrile imines was carried out either by the addition of tertiary amine to hydrazonoyl chlorides «drop by drop» or using the recently proposed diffusion mixing technique, which led to ~5-15% increases in target compound yields. It was found that the addition of nitrile imines to C=S or C=N exocyclic double bonds led to 1,2,4-thiazolines or triazolines and occurred regioselectively in accordance with the ratio of FMO coefficients of reactants. The yield of the resulting spiro-compound depended on the presence of alkyl substituents in the nitrile imine structure and was significantly decreased in reactions with imines with strong electron donor or electron-withdrawing groups. Some of the obtained compounds showed reasonable in vitro cytotoxicity. IC50 values were calculated for HCT116 (colon cancer) cells using the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) test.

Abstract
The Biltz synthesis establishes straightforward access to 5,5-disubstituted (thio)hydantoins by combining a 1,2-diketone and a (thio)urea. Its appealing features include inherent atom and step economy together with the potential to generate structurally diverse products. However, control of the stereochemistry of this reaction has proven to be a daunting challenge. Herein, we describe the first example of enantioselective catalytic Biltz synthesis which affords more than 40 thiohydantoins with high stereo- and regio-control, irrespective of the symmetry of thiourea structure. A one pot synthesis of corresponding hydantoins is also documented. Remarkably, experimental studies and DFT calculations establish the reaction pathway and origin of stereoselectivity.

Abstract
A collection of peptidomimetics characterized by having an aspartic acid motif embedded in a rigid hydantoin heterocycle are synthesized through a sequential multicomponent domino process followed by standard regioselective deprotection/coupling reactions based on acid-base liquid/liquid purification protocols. 1H nuclear magnetic resonance experiments, molecular modeling, and X-ray analysis showed that the resulting hydantoin-based loops I (in particular) and II (to a lesser extent) can be considered novel β-turn inducer motifs being able to project two peptide-like strands in a U-shaped conformation driven by the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds.

Abstract
Chiral Brønsted base (BB) catalyzed asymmetric transformations constitute an important tool for synthesis. A meaningful fraction of these transformations proceeds through transiently generated enolate intermediates, which display quite versatile reactivity against a variety of electrophiles. Some years ago, our group became interested in developing BB-catalyzed asymmetric reactions of enolizable carbonyl substrates that involve π-extended enolates in which, besides control of reaction diastereo and enantioselectivity, the site-selectivity control is an additional issue in most cases. In the examples covered in this account the opportunities deployed, and the challenges posed, by these methods are illustrated, with a focus on the generation of quaternary carbon stereocenters. In the way, new bifunctional BB catalysts as well as achiral templates were developed that may find further applications.

Abstract
Chronic diseases such as cystic fibrosis, inflammatory bowel diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, and cardiovascular illness have been linked to a decrease in selenium levels and an increase in oxidative stress. Selenium is an essential trace element that exhibits antioxidant properties, with selenocysteine enzymes like glutathione peroxidase being particularly effective at reducing peroxides. In this study, a series of synthetic organoselenium compounds were synthesized and evaluated for their potential antioxidant activities. The new selenohydantoin molecules were inspired by selenoneine and synthesized using straightforward methods. Their antioxidant potential was evaluated and proven using classical radical scavenging and metal-reducing methods. The selenohydantoin derivatives exhibited glutathione peroxidase-like activity, reducing hydroperoxides. Theoretical calculations using Density Functional Theory (DFT) revealed the selenone isomer to be the only one occurring in solution, with selenolate as a possible tautomeric form in the presence of a basic species. Cytocompatibility assays indicated that the selenohydantoin derivatives were non-toxic to primary human aortic smooth muscle cells, paving the way for further biological evaluations of their antioxidant activity. The results suggest that selenohydantoin derivatives with trifluoro-methyl (-CF3) and chlorine (-Cl) substituents have significant activities and could be potential candidates for further biological trials. These compounds may contribute to the development of effective therapies for chronic diseases such cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Teodorico Borgognoni was born in Lucca in 1205 and was appointed bishop of Bitonto and Cervia in 1262 and 1270. Following his father, he learned the art of surgery and collected relevant recipes in his most important work, entitled Cyrurgia seu filia principis. Among the disciplines reported in this work, the most interesting and innovative is anesthesia. The recipes in this field contribute to Borbognoni's consideration as the forerunner of modern anesthesia. Such recipes have been reported in other manuscripts from the Middle Ages, like Manuscript No. 1939. In the present work, we investigate the traditional preparations handed down in this manuscript, focusing on type of preparation and botanical ingredients. The results highlight that exploited ingredients can be divided into three groups: the first comprises plants already known for their narcotic effects, the second includes ingredients acting as an adjuvant for absorption or reducing the metabolism, and the last group includes ingredients not associated with biological activity to explain their presence in anesthetic recipes. This third group is of particular interest for future biological investigations. Our goal is to rekindle attention to the work of Teodorico Borgognoni on traditional preparation for anesthetic purposes: a topic often underestimated by ethnobotanical surveys.

Abstract
The synthesis of a collection of enantiomerically pure, systematically substituted hydantoins as structural privileged universal mimetic scaffolds is presented. It relies on a chemoselective condensation/cyclization domino process between isocyanates of quaternary or unsubstituted α-amino esters and N-alkyl aspartic acid diesters followed by standard hydrolysis/coupling reactions with amines, using liquid-liquid acid/base extraction protocols for the purification of the intermediates. Besides the nature of the α carbon on the isocyanate moiety, either a quaternary carbon or a more flexible methylene group, conformational studies in silico (molecular modeling), in solution (NMR, circular dichroism (CD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR)), and in solid state (X-ray) showed that the presented hydantoin-based peptidomimetics are able to project their substituents in positions superimposable to the side chains of common protein secondary structures such as α-helix and β-turn, being the open α-helix conformation slightly favorable according to molecular modeling, while the closed β-turn conformation preferred in solution and in solid state.

Clin Exp Pharmacol Physiol 2023. [PMID: 37331719 DOI: 10.1111/1440-1681.13799] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Revised: 04/27/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023]
Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, for which no disease-modifying treatments are available yet. Thus, developing new neuroprotective drugs with the potential to delay or stop the natural course of the disease is necessary. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of a newly synthesized 3-aminohydantoin derivative named 3-amino-5-benzylimidazolidine-2,4-dione (PHAH). The possible neuroprotective and neurorescue effects of the synthesized compound were tested: (i) in N27 dopaminergic and BV-2 microglial cell lines treated with 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) and (ii) in the 6-OHDA rat model of PD. PHAH administration reduced proinflammatory markers, including nitric oxide synthase and interleukin-1β, in BV-2 cells activated by lipopolysaccharide. Although PHAH did not restore cell death induced by 6-OHDA, it was not cytotoxic for dopaminergic cells since cell viability, under the effect of the two concentrations, remained comparable to that of the control cells. Most interestingly, PHAH restored 6-OHDA-induced dopaminergic neurodegeneration in the substantia nigra and striatum and ameliorated 6-OHDA-induced oxidative stress in the rat brain. In summary, we have proven that in PD models, PHAH has neuroprotective effects in vivo and anti-inflammatory effects in vitro; however, these effects remain to be confirmed by carrying out certain specific behavioural tests as well as by exploring other neuroinflammatory markers. The present work also suggests that PHAH is a promising scaffold that can serve as the basis for the design and synthesis of other derivatives that can be potent antiparkinsonian agents.

Abstract
(R)/(S)-the two enantiomers of 3-substituted-1-[2-(5)-3-substituted-4-benzyl-5-oxo-4-phenyl-2-thioxoimid-azolidin-1-yl]ethyl/propyl-5-benzyl-5-phenyl-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-ones were formed during the diastereoselective reaction between N,N″-1,ω-alkanediylbis[N'-organylthiourea] derivatives and 2,3-diphenylcyclopropenone in refluxing ethanol. The structures of the isolated compounds were confirmed by NMR, IR, mass spectra and elemental analyses. Moreover, single-crystal X-ray structure analysis was also used to elucidate the structure of the isolated compounds. The mechanism describes the reaction was also discussed. The tested compounds showed EGFR inhibitory activity with IC50 values ranging from 90 to 178 nM in comparison to the erlotinib as a reference with IC50 value of 70 nM. Compound 4c (R = allyl, n = 3) was found as the most potent antiproliferative, had the highest inhibitory effect on EGFR with an IC50 value of 90 nM, compared to erlotinib's IC50 value of 70 nM. The second and third-most active compounds were 4e (R = phenyl, n = 3) and 4d (R = ethyl, n = 3) and with IC50 values of 107 nM and 128 nM. These findings imply that the compounds tested had a significant antiproliferative effect as well as the ability to act as an EGFR inhibitor. Docking studies showed that compound 4c showed high affinity to EGFR based on its docking score (S; kcal/mol) within five test compounds.

Abstract
Novel fungicidal agents were designed based on the combination of two privileged scaffolds, thiohydantoin and spirocyclic butenolide, which are widely found in natural products. The synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and high-resolution electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry. The in vitro antioomycete activity evaluation showed that most of the compounds exhibited excellent inhibitory activities against different developmental stages in the life cycle of pathogenic oomycete Phytophthora capsici. Compound 5j could inhibit the mycelial growth, sporangium production, zoospore release, and cystospore germination significantly with EC50 values of 0.38, 0.25, 0.11, and 0.026 μg/mL, respectively. The in vivo antifungal/antioomycete bioassay results revealed that the series of compounds generally showed outstanding control efficacies against the pathogenic oomycete Pseudoperonospora cubensis, and compounds 5j, 5l, 7j, 7k, and 7l possessed broad-spectrum antifungal activities against the test phytopathogens. The in vivo protective and curative efficacies against P. capsici of the representative compound 5j were excellent, which were better than those of azoxystrobin. More prominently, 5j significantly promoted the biomass accumulation of the root system and reinforced the cell wall by callose deposition. The pronounced upregulation of immune response-related genes indicated that the active oomycete inhibitor 5j also functioned as a plant elicitor. Transmission electron microscopy observation and the enzyme activity test demonstrated that the mechanism of action of 5j was to bind to the pivotal protein, complex III on the respiratory chain, which resulted in a shortage of energy supply. Molecular docking results exhibited that compound 5j appropriately matched with the Qo pocket and had no interaction with the most commonly mutated site Gly-142, which may be of significant benefit in Qo fungicide resistance management. Compound 5j showed great advantages and potential in oomycete control, resistance management, and induction of disease resistance. A further investigation of 5j with a unique structure might have direct implications for the creation of novel oomycete inhibitors against plant-pathogenic oomycetes.

Abstract
A series of S-alkyl substituted thioglycolurils was prepared through the alkylation of corresponding thioglycolurils with halogenoalkanes and tested for their fungicidal activity against six phytopathogenic fungi from different taxonomic classes: Venturia inaequalis, Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium moniliforme, Bipolaris sorokiniana, and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and two pathogenic yeasts: Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii. A number of S-alkyl substituted thioglycolurils exhibited high activity against Venturia inaequalis and Rhizoctonia solani (85–100% mycelium growth inhibition), and moderate activity against other phytopathogens. S-Ethyl substituted thioglycolurils possessed a high activity against Candida albicans. Additionally, the hemolytic and cytotoxic properties of promising derivatives were determined using human red blood cells and human embryonic kidney cells, respectively. Two S-ethyl derivatives possessed both low cytotoxicity against normal human cells and high fungicidal activity against Candida albicans.

Abstract
Spiroleiferthione A (1), with a 2-thiohydantoin a heterocyclic spiro skeleton, and oleiferthione A (2), an imidazole-2-thione derivative, were isolated from the aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera Lam. seeds. The unprecedented structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic data, X-ray diffraction, and gauge-independent atomic orbital (GIAO) NMR calculation, as well as electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation. The structures of 1 and 2 were determined to be (5R,7R,8S)-8-hydroxy-3-(4′-hydroxybenzyl)-7-methyl-2-thioxo-6-oxa-1, 3-diazaspiro [4.4] nonan-4-one, and 1-(4′-hydroxybenzyl)-4,5-dimethyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazole-2-thione, respectively. Biosynthetic pathways for 1 and 2 have been proposed. Compounds 1 and 2 are considered to have originated from isothiocyanate and then undergone a series of oxidation and cyclization reactions to form 1 and 2. Compounds 1 and 2 demonstrated weak inhibition rates of NO production, 42.81 ± 1.56% and 33.53 ± 2.34%, respectively, at a concentration of 50 μM. Additionally, Spiroleiferthione A demonstrated moderate inhibitory activity against high glucose-induced human renal mesangial cell proliferation in a dosage-dependent manner. A wider range of biological activities, and the diabetic nephropathy protective activity of Compound 1 in vivo and its mechanism of action, need further investigation after the sufficient enrichment of Compound 1 or total synthesis.

Abstract
The catalytic, enantio- and diastereoselective addition of hydantoin surrogates II to "rigidified" vinylidene bis(sulfone) reagents is developed, thus overcoming the inability of commonly employed β-substituted vinylic sulfones to react. Adducts are transformed in enantioenriched 5,5-disubstituted hydantoins through hydrolysis and reductive desulfonylation processes providing new structures for eventual bioassays. Density functional theory studies that rationalize the observed reactivity and stereoselectivity trends are also provided.

Biologically Oriented Hybrids of Indole and Hydantoin Derivatives. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 28:molecules28020602. [PMID: 36677661 PMCID: PMC9866919 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28020602] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
Indoles and hydantoins are important heterocycles scaffolds which present in numerous bioactive compounds which possess various biological activities. Moreover, they are essential building blocks in organic synthesis, particularly for the preparation of important hybrid molecules. The series of hybrid compounds containing indoles and imidazolidin-2-one moiety with direct C-C bond were synthesized using an amidoalkylation one-pot reaction. All compounds were investigated as a growth regulator for germination, growth and development of wheat seeds (Triticum aestivum L). Their effect on drought resistance at very low concentrations (4 × 10-5 M) was evaluated. The study highlighted identified the leading compounds, 3a and 3e, with higher growth-regulating activity than the indole-auxin analogues.

Abstract
Sulfonamides are the basic motifs for a whole generation of drugs from a large group of antibiotics. Currently, research in the field of the new sulfonamide synthesis has received a "second wind", due to the increase in the synthetic capabilities of organic chemistry and the study of their medical and biological properties of a wide spectrum of biological activity. New reagents and new reactions make it possible to significantly increase the number of compounds with a sulfonamide fragment in combination with other important pharmacophore groups, such as, for example, a wide class of N-containing heterocycles. The result of these synthetic possibilities is the extension of the activity spectrum-along with antibacterial activity, many of them exhibit other types of biological activity. Antiviral activity is also observed in a wide range of sulfonamide derivatives. This review provides examples of the synthesis of sulfonamide compounds with antiviral properties that can be used to develop drugs against coxsackievirus B, enteroviruses, encephalomyocarditis viruses, adenoviruses, human parainfluenza viruses, Ebola virus, Marburg virus, SARS-CoV-2, HIV and others. Since over the past three years, viral infections have become a special problem for public health throughout the world, the development of new broad-spectrum antiviral drugs is an extremely important task for synthetic organic and medicinal chemistry. Sulfonamides can be both sources of nitrogen for building a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic core and the side chain substituents of a biologically active substance. The formation of the sulfonamide group is often achieved by the reaction of the N-nucleophilic center in the substrate molecule with the corresponding sulfonylchloride. Another approach involves the use of sulfonamides as the reagents for building a nitrogen-containing framework.

Abstract
We present the effective synthesis and structural characterization of three novel imidazolium-thiohydantoin ligands (IMTHs, 5a–c) and their Mn(iii) complexes (Mn(iii)IMTHs, 6a–c) in this study. The findings of elemental analyses, spectral analyses and magnetic measurements will be used to infer the stoichiometry, coordination styles, and geometrical aspects of Mn(iii)IMTHs. The new compounds were evaluated for their chemotherapeutic potential against ESKAPE pathogens and liver cancer (HepG2). According to the MIC and MBC values, the bactericidal and bacteriostatic activities of IMTHs have been significantly improved following coordination with the Mn(iii) ion. The MTT assay results showed that all Mn(iii)IMTHs had the potential to reduce the viability of liver carcinoma (HepG2) cells in a dose-dependent manner, with the BF4-supported complex (6b) outperforming its counterparts (6a and 6c) as well as a clinical anticancer drug (VBL). Additionally, Mn-IMTH2 (6b) showed the highest level of selectivity (SI = 32.05) for targeting malignant cells (HepG2) over healthy cells (HL7702). We present the effective synthesis and structural characterization of three novel imidazolium-thiohydantoin ligands (IMTHs, 5a–c) and their Mn(iii) complexes (Mn(iii)IMTHs, 6a–c) in this study.![]()

Development of Novel 1,3-Disubstituted-2-Thiohydantoin Analogues with Potent Anti-Inflammatory Activity; In Vitro and In Silico Assessments. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27196271. [PMID: 36234810 PMCID: PMC9573447 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27196271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2022] [Revised: 09/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Inflammation is the main cause of several autoimmune diseases, including type I diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, bullous pemphigoid, paraneoplastic pemphigoid, and multiple sclerosis. Currently, there is an urgent demand for the discovery of novel anti-inflammatory drugs with potent activity but also safe for long-term application. Toward this aim, the present study reported the design, synthesis, and characterization of a set of novel 1,3-disubstituted-2-thiohydantoins derivatives. The anti-inflammatory activity of synthesized compounds was assessed against murine leukemia cell line (RAW264.7) by evaluating the cytotoxicity activity and their potency to prevent nitric oxide (NO) production. The results revealed that the synthesized compounds possess a considerable cytotoxic activity together with the ability to reduce the NO production in murine leukemia cell line (RAW264.7). Among synthesized compounds, compound 7 exhibited the most potent cytotoxic activity with IC50 of 197.68 μg/mL, compared to celecoxib drug (IC50 value 251.2 μg/mL), and demonstrated a significant ability to diminish the NO production (six-fold reduction). Exploring the mode of action responsible for the anti-inflammatory activity revealed that compound 7 displays a significant and dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β. Furthermore, compound 7 demonstrated the ability to significantly reduce the expression of the inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α at 50 μg/mL, as compared to Celecoxib. Finally, detailed molecular modelling studies indicated that compound 7 exhibits a substantial binding affinity toward the binding pocket of the cyclooxygenase 2 enzyme. Taken together, our study reveals that 1,3-disubstituted-2-thiohydantoin could be considered as a promising scaffold for the development of potent anti-inflammatory agents.

Abstract
The reaction of the HCl or trifluoroacetic acid salts of primary amines with carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) is shown to be a preparatively useful method for forming monosubstituted carbamoylimidazoles (28 examples) without the formation of symmetrical urea side products. The utility of these air- and water-stable crystalline carbamoylimidazole reagents was demonstrated by their reactions as blocked or masked isocyanate equivalents. Reaction with various classes of nucleophiles provides access to useful functional groups including ureas, carbamates, thiocarbamates, hydantoins, and oxazolidinones. A parallel synthesis library of 30 ureas was generated by the reaction of 6× carbamoylimidazole intermediates with 5× amines and triethylamine. The unsymmetrical urea-containing natural products macaurea A and pygmaniline A were also prepared in good yields (95% over four steps and 79% over three steps, respectively) using this approach. The reaction of carbamoylimidazoles with amino acid methyl esters followed by microwave irradiation in aqueous media gives hydantoins in high yields, further demonstrating the ability of carbamoylimidazoles as isocyanate surrogates. Three hydantoin-containing natural products including macahydantoin D and meyeniihydantoin A were prepared in nearly quantitative yields from proline methyl ester and carbamoylimidazoles. The reaction of carbamoylimidazoles with alcohols and thiols under basic conditions affords carbamates and thiocarbamates, respectively, in good yields. Lastly, a method for the preparation of chiral oxazolidinone heterocycles from chiral epoxy alcohols is demonstrated using a double displacement approach. The reactions occur with high regio- and stereoselectivity (dr ≥ 15:1 by 1H NMR) via a domino attack of the corresponding alkoxides with carbamoylimidazoles followed by an intramolecular attack of the in situ generated urea anion at the proximal position of the epoxide group.

Abstract
The enantioseparation of syn- and anti-3,5-disubstituted hydantoins 5a–i was investigated on three immobilized polysaccharide-based columns (CHIRAL ART Amylose-SA, CHIRAL ART Cellulose-SB, CHIRAL ART Cellulose-SC) by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using n-hexane/2-PrOH (90/10, v/v) or 100% dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as mobile phases, respectively, and by supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) using CO2/alcohol (MeOH, EtOH, 2-PrOH; 80/20, v/v) as a mobile phase. The chromatographic parameters, such as separation and resolution factors, have indicated that Amylose-SA is more suitable for enantioseparation of the most analyzed syn- and anti-3,5-disubstituted hydantoins than Celullose-SB and Cellulose-SC in both HPLC and SFC modalities. All three tested columns showed better enantiorecognition ability toward anti-hydantoins compared to syn-hydantoins, both in HPLC and SFC modes. We have demonstrated that environmentally friendly solvent DMC can be efficiently used as the mobile phase in HPLC mode for enantioseparation of hydantoins on the immobilized polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases.

Abstract
New tetrahydropyrazino[2,3-c]quinolin-5(6H)-ones were prepared from 3-chloroquinoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones and ethylene diamine. In their reaction with HNCO, an unprecedented molecular rearrangement produced new types of hydantoin derivatives. All prepared compounds were characterized on the basis of their 1H, 13C, and 15N NMR and ESI mass spectra and some were authenticated by X-ray analysis of single crystalline material. A proposed mechanism for rearrangement is discussed in this essay. The CDK and ABL inhibition activity as well as in vitro cytotoxicity of the prepared compounds was also tested.

Abstract
A highly efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly protocol is reported for the C5-selective alkylation of hydantoins under phase-transfer catalysis. The reactions are scalable and only require a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) to achieve high yields under mild reaction conditions. Moreover, the method is applicable to a wide range of electrophiles, including alkyl-, allyl-, propargyl-, and benzyl halides, as well as acrylates and dibromoalkanes, but also to virtually any hydantoin precursor. We also highlight the potential for an enantioselective adaptation using a chiral phase-transfer catalyst.

Abstract
Thiohydantoin and quinolone derivatives have attracted researchers’ attention because of a broad spectrum of their medical applications. The aim of our research was to synthesize and analyze the antimicrobial properties of novel 2-thiohydantoin and 2-quinolone derivatives. For this purpose, two series of hybrid compounds were synthesized. Both series consisted of 2-thiohydantoin core and 2-quinolone derivative ring, however one of them was enriched with an acetic acid group at N3 atom in 2-thiohydantoin core. Antibacterial properties of these compounds were examined against bacteria: Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The antimicrobial assay was carried out using a serial dilution method to obtain the MIC. The influence of blue light irradiation on the tested compounds was investigated. The relative yield of singlet oxygen (1O2*, 1Δg) generation upon excitation with 420 nm was determined by a comparative method, employing perinaphthenone (PN) as a standard. Antimicrobial properties were also investigated after blue light irradiation of the suspensions of the hybrids and bacteria placed in microtitrate plates. Preliminary results confirmed that some of the hybrid compounds showed bacteriostatic activity to the reference Gram-positive bacterial strains and a few of them were bacteriostatic towards Gram-negative bacteria, as well. Blue light activation enhanced bacteriostatic effect of the tested compounds.

Abstract
The first example of palladium-catalysed oxidative carbonylation of unprotected α-amino amides to hydantoins is described here. The selective synthesis of the target compounds was achieved under mild conditions (1 atm of CO), without ligands and bases. The catalytic system overrode the common reaction pathway that usually leads instead to the formation of symmetrical ureas.

Abstract
The currently available treatment options for leishmaniasis are associated with high costs, severe side effects, and high toxicity. In previous studies, thiohydantoins demonstrated some pharmacological activities and were shown to be potential hit compounds with antileishmanial properties. The present study further explored the antileishmanial effect of acetyl-thiohydantoins against Leishmania amazonensis and determined the main processes involved in parasite death. We observed that compared to thiohydantoin nuclei, acetyl-thiohydantoin treatment inhibited the proliferation of promastigotes. This treatment caused alterations in cell cycle progression and parasite size and caused morphological and ultrastructural changes. We then investigated the mechanisms involved in the death of the protozoan; there was an increase in ROS production, phosphatidylserine exposure, and plasma membrane permeabilization and a loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, resulting in an accumulation of lipid bodies and the formation of autophagic vacuoles on these parasites and confirming an apoptosis-like process. In intracellular amastigotes, selected acetyl-thiohydantoins reduced the percentage of infected macrophages and the number of amastigotes/macrophages by increasing ROS production and reducing TNF-α levels. Moreover, thiohydantoins did not induce cytotoxicity in murine macrophages (J774A.1), human monocytes (THP-1), or sheep erythrocytes. In silico and in vitro analyses showed that acetyl-thiohydantoins exerted in vitro antileishmanial effects on L. amazonensis promastigotes in apoptosis-like and amastigote forms by inducing ROS production and reducing TNF-α levels, indicating that they are good candidates for drug discovery studies in leishmaniasis treatment. Additionally, we carried out molecular docking analyses of acetyl-thiohydantoins on two important targets of Leishmania amazonensis: arginase and TNF-alpha converting enzyme. The results suggested that the acetyl groups in the N1-position of the thiohydantoin ring and the ring itself could be pharmacophoric groups due to their affinity for binding amino acid residues at the active site of both enzymes via hydrogen bond interactions. These results demonstrate that thiohydantoins are promising hit compounds that could be used as antileishmanial agents.

Abstract
Indole- and hydantoin-based derivatives both exhibit anti-inflammatory activity, suggesting that the structures of indole and hydantoin are functional for this activity. In the present study, we synthesized two types of indole-hydantoin derivatives, IH-1 (5-(1H-indole-3-ylmethylene) imidazolidine-2,4-dione) and IH-2 (5-(1H-indole-3-ylmethyl) imidazolidine-2,4-dione) and examined their effects on LPS-induced inflammatory responses in murine macrophage-like RAW264.7 cells. LPS-induced inflammatory responses were not affected by indole, hydantoin, or IH-2. In contrast, IH-1 significantly inhibited the LPS-induced production of nitric oxide (NO) and secretion of CCL2 and CXCL1 by suppressing the mRNA expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS), CCL2, and CXCL1. IH-1 markedly inhibited the LPS-induced activation of NF-κB without affecting the degradation of IκBα or nuclear translocation of NF-κB. IH-1 markedly attenuated the transcriptional activity of NF-κB by suppressing the LPS-induced phosphorylation of the NF-κB p65 subunit at Ser276. Furthermore, IH-1 prevented the LPS-induced interaction of NF-κB p65 subunit with a transcriptional coactivator, cAMP response element-binding protein (CBP). Collectively, these results revealed the potential of the novel indole-hydantoin derivative, IH-1 as an anti-inflammatory drug.
