Reaction of epoxypropylcarbazole derivatives with 2-phenylindole

The reactions of 9-(2,3-epoxypropyl)carbazole and the glycidyl ether of 1,3-di(9-carbazolyl)-2-propanol with 2-phenylindole were studied.

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of a series of 2-trifluoromethylbenzimidazole-thiazolidinone derivatives

A series of 2-phenyl-3-(2-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-benzoimidazol-6-yl)thiazolidin-4-one derivatives were synthesized from p-nitro-o-phenylenediamine in a three-step reaction. Their structures were elucidated by NMR and mass spectral data.

Compounds 3d (2′-Br), 3j (4′-Br), and 3l (4′-NO₂) displayed a broad spectrum of activity against the strains tested (0.14–38.33 μM). The brominated derivatives 3d and 3j showed excellent activity against the Gram-positive bacterial strains (MBC between 0.12 and 35.46 μM), while the nitro derivative 3l showed excellent activity against all four Gram-negative strains tested (MBC between 0.15 and 9.58 μM).

The FTIR and FTR spectra of halogen (Cl, Br, I) substituted carbazole and their N-acetic and propionic acids have been recorded. A number of lines have been assigned on the basis of previous studies on the parent compound and by comparisons with the characteristic vibrations of their constituent structural units as well as comparing the spectra from FTIR and FTR. Some substituent-sensitive bands and characteristic bands were found. The electronic absorption spectra of these compounds in acetonitrile were also measured and are briefly discussed.

Synthesis,biological evaluation,and docking study of a series of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazole derivatives with an indole-triazole-peptide conjugate

A series of new compounds containing an indole-triazole - peptide conjugate were designed as potential agents possessing the dual anti-bacterial and anticancer activities. Accordingly, 20 compounds were prepared via a multi-step synthesis involving the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) as a key step in moderate to high yield. All the synthesized compounds were purified by chromatographic techniques and characterized by IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR and mass spectral data. The synthesized derivatives were screened for their antimicrobial activities against one gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and three gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, and Proteus vulgaris) bacteria using an agar-well diffusion method. Most of the compounds showed moderate to reasonable antibacterial activities especially the compound 9e that showed good activities against all the strains. The potential of DNA gyrase inhibitory activity of this compound was assessed by using molecular docking studies in silico carried out using Autodock Vina software. The low ΔG_bind value (−9.4 Kcal/mol) of compound 9e suggested its good interactions with the target protein in silico. The cytotoxic activities of some of the compounds synthesized were evaluated via a MTT assay using the human lung cancer cell line A549. Several compounds showed promising activities among which compound 9b , 9k, and 9e showed low IC₅₀ values.

Synthesis,antibacterial activity and docking studies of substituted quinolone thiosemicarbazones

Abstract

Fifteen 2-quinolone thiosemicarbazone derivatives of which eleven were new, were synthesized at room temperature. The key intermediate was the quinolone carbaldehyde, from which thiosemicarbazones were formed by the reaction of thiosemicarbazides with the aldehyde moiety. The structures of the synthesized compounds were elucidated by 1D and 2D-NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The synthesized compounds showed antibacterial activity with MBCs in the range 0.80 to 36.49?mM against Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus aureus Rosenbach (MRSA), Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. The best activity was seen when a larger halogen such as chlorine and bromine were substituted at C-6 on the quinolone scaffold and when a planar phenyl group was present on the thiosemicarbazone moiety. Activity was reduced when a smaller fluorine atom was present at C-6 or when a methyl group was attached to the thiosemicarbazone. This group of compounds showed a high negative binding affinity, which suggested promising antimcrobial activity. The 6-chloro derivative with a phenyl group on the thiosemicarbazone had the greatest negative binding affinity.     

In-vitro assays for determination of oestrogenic activity

At present, in-vitro bioassays are predominantly being seen as tools to identify, through screening programs, whether or not individual chemical compounds have an effect on the endocrine system. However, as the techniques mature, they are likely to find use in the future in monitoring of discharges to the environment for any biological effect and will compliment the range of chemical and biological techniques also available for monitoring environmental quality. Such an approach has already been utilised by a number of workers to fractionate mixtures (e.g. final effluents from STW), to isolate the oestrogenically active components and subsequently identify the compounds which are active. This paper reviews the present state of in-vitro techniques for determination of oestrogenic activity and discusses present approaches to their use in environmental monitoring in conjunction with chemical analyses in toxicity identification and evaluation.     

Mass-spectrometric study of ring-chain tautomerism in a series of substituted 4-hydroxyhexahydropyrimidine-2-thiones

In order to investigate the ring-chain tautomerism of substituted 4-hydroxyhexahydropyrimidine-2-thiones the mass spectra of a series of compounds of this group were studied. It is shown that equilibrium exists between the cyclic hydroxy form and the acyclic oxo form, which belongs to the oxoalkylthiourea class, in a series of 3-alkyl(aryl)-4,6,6-trimethyl derivatives in the gas phase. The mass spectra of these compounds contain intense peaks of [M-18]⁺ and [M-33]⁺ ions, which are formed as a result of the successive elimination of a water molecule and a methyl radical by the molecular ions. The fragmentation of 3-alkyl-4,5-dimethyl derivatives takes place from the open oxo form of the molecular ion with detachment of the terminal groups.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1273–1278, September, 1983.     

3D-QSAR study,docking molecular and simulation dynamic on series of benzimidazole derivatives as anti-cancer agents

Benzimidazole is an important heterocyclic organic compound which has a structural analogy to nucleotides found in human body and hence is an important pharmacophore in medicinal chemistry. The anti-cancer activities for a diverse set of benzimidazole as anti-cancer agents against breast cancer cell line (MCF7) assay have been subjected to 3D-QSAR (3-Dimensional Quantitative Structural-Activity Relationship) studies. Both CoMFA and CoMSIA models exhibit significant results in terms of statistical parameters as determination coefficients R² > 0.9 and Leave One Out cross-validation determination coefficients Q²> 6. The predictive quality of both 3D QSAR models have been assessed by external validation and Y-randomization test. Five new compounds have been designed and predicted by in silico ADMET method. In the second part, we have used the docking molecular and simulation dynamics (MD) to investigate the bonding interactions and stability of the designed compounds into the Pin1. Then, we have compared them to Trastuzumab and Tamoxifen as a standard inhibitors drug of breast cancer. The designed compounds form stable hydrogen and hydrophobic bonding interactions with the residues Lys63, Gln131, Ser154, Arg 68 and Arg69 of Pin1 receptor during 100 ns as a time of the simulation. The obtained results showed that the new benzimidazole are useful as a template for future design of more potent inhibitors against breast cancer cell lines (MCF7).     

Complexes of 2-aminopyridine and its substituted derivatives with iodine

Depending on the amount of halogen used, 2-aminopyridine and its ring-substituted derivatives form complexes with 1 or 2 moles of iodine. In the presence of hydriodic acid, one equivalent of acid is included in the complex. 2-Amino-3,5-dibromopyridine forms a complex with 1 mole of iodine even in the presence of excess iodine or in the presence of HI. According to the IR spectra, the iodine in the complexes is coordinated with the ring nitrogen atom.
