Cobalt-alkyne complexes are drugs with remarkable cytotoxicity. From the complexes tested up to now we selected the aspirin derivative [2-acetoxy-(2-propynyl)benzoate]hexacarbonyl-dicobalt (Co-ASS) as the lead compound. To get more insight into the mode o

Abstract: In order to discover novel anti-inflammatory agents, three series of compounds obtained by appending 1,2,3-triazole moieties on ursolic acid were designed and synthesized. All compounds have been screened for their anti-inflammatory activity by using an ear edema model. The potent anti-inflammatory compound was subjected to in vitro cyclooxygenase COX-1/COX-2 inhibition assays. In general, the derivatives were found to be potent anti-inflammatory activity. Especially, the compound 11b exhibited the strongest activity of all of the compounds prepared, with 82.81% inhibition after intraperitoneal administration, which was better than celecoxib as a positive control. Molecular docking results unclose the rationale for the interaction of the compound 11b with COX-2 enzyme. Further studies revealed that compound 11b exhibited effective COX-2 inhibitory activity, with half-maximal inhibitor concentration (IC50) value of 1.16?μM and selectivity index (SI = 64.66) value close to that of celecoxib (IC50 = 0.93?μM, SI = 65.47). Taken together, these results could suggest a promising chemotype for development of new COX-2-targeting anti-inflammatory agent. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Tuberculosis remains as a major public health risk which causes the highest mortality rate globally and an improved regimen is required to treat the drug-resistant strains. Pyrazinamide is a first-line antitubercular drug used in combination therapy with other anti-TB drugs. Herein, we describe the modification of pyrazinamide structure using bioisosterism and rational approaches by incorporating the 1,2,3-triazole moiety. Three sets of pyrazine-1,2,3-triazoles (3a-o, 5a-o and 9a-l) are designed, synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro inhibitory potency against mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. The pyrazine-1,2,3-triazoles synthesized through the bioisosteric modification displayed improved activity as compared to rationally modified pyrazine-1,2,3-triazoles. Among 42 title compounds, seven derivatives demonstrated significant anti-tubercular activity with the MIC of 1.56 μg/mL, which are two-fold more potent than the parent compound pyrazinamide. Further, the synthesized pyrazinamide analogs demonstrated moderate inhibition activity against several bacterial strains and possessed an acceptable in vitro cytotoxicity profile as well. Additionally, the activity profile of pyrazine-1,2,3-triazoles was validated by performing the molecular docking studies against the Inh A enzyme. Furthermore, in silico ADME prediction revealed good oral bioavailability for the potent molecules.
