3-Cyclohex-2-enyl-4-hydroxy-1-methylquinolin-2(1H)-one (5) reacts with pyridine hydrotribromide in CH₂Cl₂ at 0–5°C for 0.75h to give a furo fused heterocycle 6 in 96% yield. Product 6 on treatment with KOH-EtOH eliminates HBr to give compound 8 which on treatement with Pd-C in refluxing diphenyl ether for 0.5h furnishes benzofuro[3,2-c]quinolone 9 in 90% yield. Substrate 5 on sequential treatment with Ac₂O-AcONa and Br₂/AcOH followed by KOH-EtOH, however produces bicyclic product 7 in excllent overall yield. Substrate 5 reacts with 1 equivalent of m-chloroperbenzoic acid in refluxing benzene to furnish bicyclic heterocycle 12 in 80% yield and with cold conc. H₂SO₄ at 0–5°C for 2h generates the bicyclic heterocycle 14 in 90% yield.     

A rapid and facile synthesis of new spiropyrimidines from 5-(2-arylethylidene-2-oxo)-1,3-dimethylpyrimidine-2,4,6-triones

Synthesis,in vitro cytotoxicity,and molecular docking study of novel 3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one based piperlongumine analogues

With the aim of expanding the scope of SAR on piperlongumine (PL), a naturally occurring anticancer molecule, we have designed a novel hybrid molecule bearing 3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one and trans-cinnamic acids. The structure, based on hybridization strategy, is used for hybridization of naturally occurring scaffolds. We have synthesized 14 hybrid molecules by coupling 3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one core with cinnamic acids using the mix anhydride approach. The newly synthesized inhibitors were evaluated for cell viability against breast cancer MCF-7 and cervical cancer HeLa cell lines. Furthermore, the active compounds were screened for their potential in breast cancer MDA-MB-231, cervical cancer C33A cell lines, prostate cancer DU-145, PC-3, and normal VERO cells. From the series, compound 10g was seen to inhibit MCF-7 cell growth significantly with GI₅₀ < 0.1 μM along with growth inhibition in MDA-MB-231 (GI₅₀ = 20 μM) and C33A (GI₅₀ = 3.2 μM). While the inhibitor 10i inhibits MCF-7 breast cancer cell growth GI₅₀ = 3.42 μM along with inhibition of cell growth in MDA-MB-231 (GI₅₀ = 30 μM), HeLa (GI₅₀ = 7.67 μM), C33A (GI₅₀ = 13 μM), DU-145 (GI₅₀ = 6.45 μM), PC-3 (GI₅₀ = 8.68 μM), and VERO (GI₅₀ = 2.93 μM), respectively. Furthermore, molecular docking study demonstrated these compounds could bind tightly to the colchicine domain of tubulin through a network of favorable steric and electrostatic interactions and thus act as a tubulin polymerization inhibitor.     

Silica Gel Catalyzed Stereoselective Conversion of Dialkyl 2-(3-acetyl-4-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)-3-(triphenylphosphoranylidene) butanedioates to Dialkyl 2-(3-acetyl-4-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)-2-butenedioates in Solvent-Free Conditions

Protonation of the highly reactive 1:1 intermediates, produced in the reaction between triphenylphosphine and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates, by 1-hydroxy-2-acetonaphthone leads to vinyltriphenylphosphonium salts, which undergo aromatic electrophilic substitution reaction with conjugate base to produce dialkyl 2-(3-acetyl-4-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)-3-(triphenylphosphoranylidene) butanedioates. Silica gel was found to catalyze conversion of dialkyl 2-(3-acetyl-4-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)-3-(triphenylphosphoranylidene) butanedioates to dialkyl 2-(3-acetyl-4-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)-2-butenedioates in solvent-free conditions at 90°;C in fairly good yields.

Novel 2-aminoimidazole-4-one complexes of copper(II) and cobalt(II): Synthesis,structural characterization and cytotoxicity

A series of 2-aminosubstituted (5Z)-3-phenyl-5-(pyridine-2-ylmethylene)-3,5-dihydro-4H-imidazole-4-ones (L) was prepared by the reaction of the corresponding 2-alkylthio-3,5-dihydro-4H-imidazole-4-ones with morpholine or piperidine in the presence of ytterbium(III) triflate. The resulting ligands were subsequently reacted with CuCl₂·2H₂O and CoCl₂·6H₂O to give the corresponding copper(II) and cobalt(II) complexes, respectively. Analysis revealed that the complexes were formed with an LMCl₂ (M = Cu, Co)-type composition in all cases. The structures of the three cobalt complexes prepared in this way were determined by X-ray crystallography. The results revealed that the cobalt ions in these complexes were tetrahedrally coordinated to two chloride anions and two nitrogen atoms from the pyridine and imidazole moieties of the ligand. The electrochemical properties of the ligands and their complexes were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry, and the results revealed that the first stage in the reduction of the Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes involved the reversible formation of the corresponding Co(I) and Cu(I) complexes, respectively. The cytotoxicity activities of the organic ligands and their complexes were evaluated against several cancer cell lines, including MCF-7, A549 and HEK293 cells. The copper complexes of the organic ligands bearing a phenyl or allyl moiety at their N(3) position together with a piperidine substituent at the 2-position of their imidazolone ring exhibited the greatest cytotoxicity of all of the compounds tested in the current study.

Design,synthesis of new novel quinoxalin-2(1H)-one derivatives incorporating hydrazone,hydrazine, and pyrazole moieties as antimicrobial potential with in-silico ADME and molecular docking simulation

A series of 6-(morpholinosulfonyl)quinoxalin-2(1H)-one based hydrazone, hydrazine, and pyrazole moieties were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activity. All the synthesized quinoxaline derivatives were characterized by IR, NMR (¹H /¹³C), and EI MS. The results displayed good to moderate antimicrobial potential against six bacterial, and two fungal standard strains. Among the tested derivatives, six quinoxalin-2(1H)-one derivatives 4a, 7, 8a, 11b, 13, and 16 exhibited a significant antibacterial activity with MIC values (0.97–62.5 µg/mL), and MBC values (1.94–88.8 µg/mL) compared with Tetracycline (MICs = 15.62–62.5 µg/mL, and MBCs = 18.74–93.75 µg/mL), and Amphotericin B (MICs = 12.49–88.8 µg/mL, and MFC = 34.62–65.62 µg/mL). In addition, according to CLSI standards, the most active quinoxalin-2(1H)-one derivatives demonstrated bactericidal and fungicidal behavior. Moreover, the most active quinoxaline derivatives showed a considerable antibacterial activity with bactericidal potential against multi-drug resistance bacteria (MDRB) strains with MIC values ranged between (1.95–15.62 µg/mL), and MBC values (3.31–31.25 µg/mL) near to standard Norfloxacin (MIC = 0.78–3.13 µg/mL, and MBC = 1.4–5.32 µg/mL. Further, in vitro S. aureus DNA gyrase inhibition activity were evaluated for the promising derivatives and displayed potency with IC₅₀ values (10.93 ± 1.81–26.18 ± 1.22 µM) compared with Ciprofloxacin (26.31 ± 1.64 µM). Interestingly, these derivatives revealed as good immunomodulatory agents by a percentage ranging between 82.8 ± 0.37 and 142.4 ± 0.98 %. Finally, some in silico ADME, toxicity prediction, and molecular docking simulation were performed and showed a promising safety profile with good binding mode.
