Determining Stable Structure and in Vitro Antiproliferative Properties of a Novel 3-(2-((4-Trifluoromethyl)phenyl)amino)thiazol-4-yl)-2H-chromen-2-one Molecule

Since coumarin and thiazole derivatives are known to have antioxidant properties, a novel derivative was synthesized in this article. 3-(2-((4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)amino)thiazol-4-yl)-2H-chromen-2-one (ATC) was synthesized as a novel compound with high yield and characterized by Raman, FT-IR, 13 C-NMR, and 1 H-NMR spectroscopic procedures and DFT calculations. In this study, the potential in vitro antiproliferative properties of the ATC compound were evaluated on colorectal cancer (HT29) and melanoma (SK-MEL-30) cell lines. According to the results, the compound was found to be significantly active, approximately 2.6-fold, against melanoma cells compared to healthy fibroblast (L929) cells. Unlike melanoma cells, the compound did not have any adverse effects on colorectal cancer cells. Due to these findings, the compound can be harnessed as a promising antiproliferative drug candidate for preclinical studies against melanoma.

Experimental (FT-IR, Laser-Raman and NMR) and theoretical spectroscopic analysis of 3-[(N-methylanilino)methyl]-5-(thiophen-2-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2(3H)-thione

The structure of a potential bioactive agent namely, 3-[([Formula: see text]-methylanilino)methyl]-5-(thiophen-2-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2(3[Formula: see text]-thione was characterized by proton and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and Laser-Raman spectroscopic techniques. The quantum chemical computations of molecular structures (disorder I and disorder II forms), vibrational wavenumbers, carbon-13 and proton chemical shifts and UV-Vis spectroscopic parameters have been performed with DFT/B3LYP method at 6-311[Formula: see text]G(d,p) basis set. The highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), nonlinear optical (NLO) properties and natural bond orbital (NBO) analyses have been theoretically examined with the mentioned calculation level. The calculated values have been compared with the recorded experimental data. The computed molecular geometric parameters, vibrational wavenumbers, NMR chemical shifts, and UV-Vis wavelengths have been found to be in a good harmony with the experimental values and spectral results of similar structures in the literature. We believe that the work will be of considerable interest to anyone working in the area of theoretical chemistry, whether in industry or academics.
