Abstract
This work reports the convenient approach for the synthesis of thiazole based thiourea derivatives (1-21) from 2-bromo-1-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazole-1-one and phenyl isothiocyanates. The scope and diversity were achieved from readily available phenyl isothiocyanates. This protocol involves an oxidative C-S bond formation. Moreover, hybrid thiazole based thiourea scaffolds (1-21) according to literature known protocol were screened in vitro for anticancer Potential against breast cancer, antiglycation and antioxidant inhibitory profile. All newly developed scaffolds were showed moderate to good inhibitory potentials ranging from 0.10 ± 0.01 µM to 11.40 ± 0.20 µM, 64.20 ± 0.40 µM to 385.10 ± 1.70 µM and 8.90 ± 0.20 µM to 39.20 ± 0.50 µM against anticancer, antiglycation and antioxidant respectively. Among the series, compounds 12 (IC50 = 0.10 ± 0.01 µM), 10 (IC50 = 64.20 ± 0.40 µM) and 12 (IC50 = 8.90 ± 0.20 µM) with flouro substitution at phenyl ring of thiourea were identified to be the most potent among the series having excellent anticancer, antiglycation and antioxidant potential. The structure of all the newly synthetics scaffolds were confirmed by using different types of spectroscopic techniques such as HREI-MS, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. To find structure-activity relationship, molecular docking studies were carried out to understand the binding mode of active inhibitors with active site of enzymes and results supported the experimental data.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
A new pyrazole-tethered thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivative (8) has been synthesized by the Knoevenagel condensation of 3-(4-nitrophenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (4) and 3-(2,4-dioxothiazolidin-3-yl)propanenitrile (7). The structure of the final compound was confirmed by standard spectroscopic techniques including IR spectroscopy, 1H-NMR spectroscopy, and ESI-MS mass spectrometry. Molecular features including frontier molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO) energies, reactivity descriptors and molecular electrostatic potential (ESP) of the title molecule were determined using density functional theory (DFT) calculation. The in vitro cytotoxicity of both the intermediate (4) and final (8) compounds were investigated against cancerous (SW-480 and MCF-7) and normal (HEK-293) cell lines by MTT assay. Compound (8) displayed higher activity than (4) with higher sensitivity against breast cancer cell line and lesser toxicity. The experimental data were further complemented by docking and absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) studies.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Synthesis and in vitro assay of hydroxyxanthones as antioxidant and anticancer agents. Sci Rep 2022; 12:1535. [PMID: 35087149 PMCID: PMC8795354 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-05573-5] [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: 09/20/2021] [Accepted: 01/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
In the present work, three hydroxyxanthones were synthesized in 11.15–33.42% yield from 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid as the starting material. The chemical structures of prepared hydroxyxanthones have been elucidated by using spectroscopic techniques. Afterward, the hydroxyxanthones were evaluated as antioxidant agents through radical scavenging assay; and anticancer agents through in vitro assays against WiDr, MCF-7, and HeLa cancer cell lines. Hydroxyxanthone 3b was categorized as a strong antioxidant agent (IC50 = 349 ± 68 µM), while the other compounds were categorized as moderate antioxidant agents (IC50 > 500 µM). On the other hand, hydroxyxanthone 3a exhibited the highest anticancer activity (IC50 = 184 ± 15 µM) and the highest selectivity (SI = 18.42) against MCF-7 cancer cells. From the molecular docking study, it was found that hydroxyxanthone 3a interacted with the active sites of Topoisomerase II protein through Hydrogen bonding with DG13 and π–π stacking interactions with DA12 and DC8. These findings revealed that hydroxyxanthones are potential candidates to be developed as antioxidant and anticancer agents in the future.

Design, Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, 2D-QSAR Modeling, and Molecular Docking Studies of Novel 1 H-3-Indolyl Derivatives as Significant Antioxidants. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms221910396. [PMID: 34638734 PMCID: PMC8508798 DOI: 10.3390/ijms221910396] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2021] [Revised: 08/26/2021] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Novel candidates of 3-(4-(thiophen-2-yl)-pyridin/pyran/pyrimidin/pyrazol-2-yl)-1H-indole derivatives (2–12) were designed by pairing the pyridine/pyrane/pyrimidine/pyrazole heterocycles with indole and thiophene to investigate their potential activities as (2,2′-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) inhibitors. The purpose of these derivatives’ modification is to create high-efficiency antioxidants, especially against ABTS, as a result of the efficiency of this set of key heterocycles in the inhibition of ROS. Herein, 2D QSAR modeling was performed to recommend the most promising members for further in vitro investigations. Furthermore, the pharmacological assay for antioxidant activity evaluation of the yielded indole-based heterocycles was tested against ABTS (2,2′-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid); by utilizing ascorbic acid as the standard. Candidate 10 showed higher antioxidant activity (IC50 = 28.23 μg/mL) than ascorbic acid itself which achieved (IC50 = 30.03 μg/mL). Moreover, molecular docking studies were performed for the newly designed and synthesized drug candidates to propose their mechanism of action as promising cytochrome c peroxidase inhibitors compared to ascorbic acid as a reference standard. Our findings could be promising in the medicinal chemistry scope for further optimization of the newly designed and synthesized compounds regarding the introduced structure-activity relationship study (SAR) in order to get a superior antioxidant lead compound in the near future.

Abstract
Resistance to antibiotics has been widely existed in the health care and community setting, thus developing a novel aspect of new antibiotics is urgently necessary. Methicillin-resistance Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Pyruvate kinase (PK) is crucial to the survive of bacterial, making it a novel antimicrobial target. In the past decade, most reported PK inhibitors including indole, flavonoid, phenazine derivative from natural product small molecules or their analogues, or virtual screening from small molecule compound library. This review covers the PK inhibitors and their antimicrobial activities reported from the beginning of 2011 through the middle of 2020. The Structure Activity Relationships (SARs) was discussed briefly as well.
