In this work, peripheral or nonperipheral tetra‐[4‐(9H‐carbazol‐9‐yl)phenoxy] substituted cobalt(II), manganese (III) phthalocyanines were synthesized for the first time. Their acetylcholinesterase from Electrophorus electricus (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase equine serum (BuChE), and α‐glucosidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae inhibition were investigated spectrophotometrically. Finally, in vitro cytotoxicities of the compounds were investigated on human neuroblastoma (SH‐SY5Y) cell line using MTT cell viability assay. The compounds inhibited to enzymes in the range of 7.39 ± 0.25–35.29 ± 2.49 μM with IC₅₀ values for AChE and 14.38 ± 0.66–58.02 ± 4.94 μM for BuChE as compared with galantamine, which used as a positive control. For α‐glucosidase, all compounds had stronger inhibition action than acarbose according to the IC₅₀ values. The IC₅₀ values of N? Co and N? Mn were found to be 3.05 ± 0.10 and 15.82 ± 1.85 μM, respectively. The results of cytotoxicity showed that the IC₅₀ values were above 100 μM showing the compounds had low cytotoxic action against SH‐SY5Y cell line for 24 h. Overall, carbazole substituted nonperipheral compounds can be considered as a potential agent for the treatment of Alzheimer's diseases and diabetes mellitus.

New cocrystals of heterocyclic drugs: structural,antileishmanial, larvicidal and urease inhibition studies

Many heterocycles have been developed as drugs due to their capacity to interact productively with biological systems. The present study aimed to synthesize cocrystals of the heterocyclic antitubercular agent pyrazinamide ( PYZ , 1 , BCS III) and the commercially available anticonvulsant drug carbamazepine ( CBZ , 2 , BCS class II) to study the effect of cocrystallization on the stability and biological activities of these drugs. Two new cocrystals, namely, pyrazinamide–homophthalic acid (1/1) ( PYZ:HMA , 3 ) and carbamazepine–5-chlorosalicylic acid (1/1) ( CBZ:5-SA , 4 ), were synthesized. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction-based structure of carbamazepine–trans-cinnamic acid (1/1) ( CBZ:TCA , 5 ) was also studied for the first time, along with the known cocrystal carbamazepine–nicotinamide (1/1) ( CBZ:NA , 6 ). From a combination drug perspective, these are interesting pharmaceutical cocrystals to overcome the known side effects of PYZ ( 1 ) therapy, and the poor biopharmaceutical properties of CBZ ( 2 ). The purity and homogeneity of all the synthesized cocrystals were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction and FT–IR analysis, followed by thermal stability studies based on differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Detailed intermolecular interactions and the role of hydrogen bonding towards crystal stability were evaluated quantitatively via Hirshfeld surface analysis. The solubility of CBZ at pH 6.8 and 7.4 in 0.1 N HCl and H₂O were compared with the values of cocrystal CBZ:5-SA ( 4 ). The solubility of CBZ:5-SA was found to be significantly improved at pH 6.8 and 7.4 in H₂O. All the synthesized cocrystals 3 – 6 exhibited a potent urease inhibition (IC₅₀ values range from 17.32 ± 0.89 to 12.3 ± 0.8 µM), several times more potent than standard acetohydroxamic acid (IC₅₀ = 20.34 ± 0.43 µM). PYZ:HMA ( 3 ) also exhibited potent larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti. Among the synthesized cocrystals, PYZ:HMA ( 3 ) and CBZ:TCA ( 5 ) were found to possess antileishmanial activity against the miltefosine-induced resistant strain of Leishmania major, with IC₅₀ values of 111.98 ± 0.99 and 111.90 ± 1.44 µM, respectively, in comparison with miltefosine (IC₅₀ = 169.55 ± 0.20 µM).     

Synthesis,in vitro evaluation,and molecular docking studies of benzofuran based hydrazone a new inhibitors of urease

This work has described the synthesis of novel class (1–25) of benzofuran based hydrazone. The hybrid scaffolds (1–25) of benzofuran based hydrazone were evaluated in vitro, for their urease inhibition. All the newly synthesized analogues (1–25) were found to illustrate moderate to good urease inhibitory profile ranging from 0.20 ± 0.01 to 36.20 ± 0.70 µM. Among the series, compounds 22 (IC₅₀ = 0.20 ± 0.01 µM), 5 (IC₅₀ = 0.90 ± 0.01 µM), 23 (IC₅₀ = 1.10 ± 0.01 µM) and 25 (IC₅₀ = 1.60 ± 0.01 µM) were found to be the many folds more potent than thiourea as standard inhibitor (IC₅₀ = 21.86 ± 0.40 µM). The elevated inhibitory profile of these analogues might be due to presence of dihydroxy and flouro groups at different position of phenyl ring B attached to hydrazone skeleton. These dihydroxy and fluoro groups bearing compounds have shown many folds better inhibitory profile through involvement of oxygen of dihydroxy groups in hydrogen bonding with active site of enzymes. Various types of spectroscopic techniques such as ¹H-, ¹³C- NMR and HREI-MS spectroscopy were used to confirm the structure of all the newly developed compounds. To find SAR, molecular docking studies were performed to understand, the binding mode of potent inhibitors with active site of enzymes and results supported the experimental data.

1,2-Benzisoxazole-3-acetamide derivatives as dual agents for DPP-IV inhibition and anticancer activity

Abstract

Herein, we have designed various benzisoxazole acetamide derivatives with and without glycine spacer as DPP-IV inhibitors. Compounds 9a–d and 11a–e were synthesized and screened for their in vitro DPP-IV inhibition. Compounds 11a and 11c showed moderate activity for DPP-IV inhibition, whereas other remained inactive at 25–200?µM concentrations. DPP-IV inhibition can be a good strategy for modulating diabetes and cancer; hence, we have screened compounds 9a–d and 11a–e for their anticancer activity using MTT assay against A549 and MCF7 cell lines. Compounds 9a–d without glycine spacer have shown good anticancer activity compared to compounds 11a–e with glycine spacer. Compound 9b has shown moderate activity with IC₅₀ values 4.72?±?0.72 and 4.39?±?0.809?µM against A549 and MCF7 cell lines, respectively. Interestingly, compound 9c with cyano group has shown very good anticancer activity with IC₅₀ 2.36?±?0.34?µM against MCF7 cell line as compared to fluorouracil with IC₅₀ 45.04?±?1.02?µM.     

Molecular modelling,synthesis, and antimalarial potentials of curcumin analogues containing heterocyclic ring

The molecular modelling approach was applied to a series of nineteen curcumin analogues to find the possible PfRIO2 kinase inhibitory action. A putative active site in flexible loop (S1) of PfRIO2 kinase was explored computationally to recognize the molecular basis of ligands binding. The ligands (curcumin analogues; 3a–3s) were well accommodated in the selected active site (S1) due to their higher molecular size and length. Further all these synthesized compounds (3a–3s) were evaluated for their in vitro antimalarial activity according to the reported method. The antimalarial data showed that all these compounds to have parasiticidal activity with minimum killing concentrations (MKCs) range between 3.87 and 25.35 μM and schizonticidal activity with IC₅₀ range between 1.48 and 23.09 μM. The compound 3p showed the most significant result with maximum schizonticidal (IC₅₀; 1.48 ± 0.10 μM) and parasiticidal activities (MKC; 3.87 ± 0.36 μM) could be identified as promising lead for further investigations.     

Screening and identification of α‐glucosidase inhibitors from Shenqi Jiangtang Granule by ultrafiltration liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry

Shenqi Jiangtang Granule, a well‐known traditional Chinese herbal preparation, has been widely used for the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus. In this work, an ultrafiltration liquid chromatography with quadrupole time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry method was proposed for the rapid identification of bioactive ingredients from Shenqi Jiangtang Granule using α‐glucosidase as an example. First, the chemical profile of this preparation was clarified, including 37 saponins, 17 flavonoids, 37 lignans, and seven other compounds. After incubation with α‐glucosidase in vitro, the methanol extract with an IC₅₀ value of 0.19 mg/mL exhibited significant inhibitory activity. Then, 18 specific binding peaks were screened, and 15 peaks were identified. Among these, ten compounds were reported to have potential α‐glucosidase inhibitory activity for the first time. Subsequently, the inhibitory activities of these active compounds were evaluated by ultraviolet spectrophotometry with p‐nitrophenyl α‐d‐ glucopyranoside as a substrate. As a result, gomisin J and gomisin D exhibited stronger α‐glucosidase inhibitory activities than other active compounds with IC₅₀ values of 77.69 and 133.85 μM, respectively. The results demonstrated that the integrated ultrafiltration liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry method was an effective and powerful tool for the discovery of active ingredients in Shenqi Jiangtang Granule.
