- Mononuclear copper(i) complexes of triphenylphosphine and: N, N ′-disubstituted thioureas as potential DNA binding chemotherapeutics
-
In this work, nine new mixed-ligand complexes with the general formula [CuBr(TPP)2Tu1-9] were synthesized. The copper(i) complexes of triphenylphosphine (TPP) and different N,N′-disubstituted thioureas (Tu) were characterized via spectroscopic techniques including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H, 13C, and 31P NMR), and single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD). The complexes were synthesized via the direct reaction of bromo(tris(triphenylphosphine)copper(i)) [BrCu(PPh3)3] precursor and thiourea ligand solution under ambient conditions. Complexes 1, 2 and 3 crystallized in a triclinic system with the P1 space group. Each complex is mononuclear, and the copper atom is tetrahedrally attached to two TPP groups through the phosphorous atom, one thiourea molecule through the sulfur atom and one bromine atom. The synthesized compounds were docked with a DNA macromolecule to predict their binding site and it was found that all molecules showed favorable binding to the DNA minor grooves. The DNA interaction studies of the representative complexes demonstrated their efficient DNA binding affinities. Based on the docking and DNA interaction results, complex 7 was found to be the best binder with a docking affinity of 382.2 kJ mol-1 and binding constant of 3.96 × 104 M-1. This compound tends to interact with the minor groove through the bromine atom positioning the side triphenylphosphine rings along the X-axis of the groove while keeping the 1-(2-chlorobenzyl)-3-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)thiourea ring on the outside.

- Photochemical Activation of Aromatic Aldehydes: Synthesis of Amides, Hydroxamic Acids and Esters
-
A cheap, facile and metal-free photochemical protocol for the activation of aromatic aldehydes has been developed. Utilizing thioxanthen-9-one as the photocatalyst and cheap household lamps as the light source, a variety of aromatic aldehydes have been activated and subsequently converted in a one-pot reaction into amides, hydroxamic acids and esters in good to high yields. The applicability of this method was highlighted in the synthesis of Moclobemide, a drug against depression and social anxiety. Extended and detailed mechanistic studies have been conducted, in order to determine a plausible mechanism for the reaction.

- Design and synthesis of arylamidine derivatives as serotonin/norepinephrine dual reuptake inhibitors
-
To improve the in vivo antidepressant activity of previously reported serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) dual reuptake inhibitors, three series of arylamidine derivatives were designed and synthesized. The in vitro 5-HT and NE reuptake inhibitory activities of these compounds were evaluated, and compound II-5 was identified as the most potent 5-HT (IC50 = 620 nM) and NE (IC50 = 10 nM) dual reuptake inhibitor. Compound II-5 exhibited potent antidepressant activity in the rat tail suspension test and showed an acceptable safety profile in a preliminary acute toxicity test in mice. Our results show that these arylamidine derivatives exhibit potent 5-HT/NE dual reuptake inhibition and should be explored further as antidepressant drug candidates.

- Selective mono-alkylation of N-methoxybenzamides
-
We report our latest discovery of norbornene derivative modulated highly mono-selective ortho-C-H activation alkylation reactions on arenes bearing simple mono-dentate coordinating groups. The reaction features the use of readily available benzamides and alkyl halides. During the study, we prepared 30 mono-alkylated aryl amides in good yields with good mono-selectivity. We have also demonstrated that structurally rigid alkenes such as norbornene and its derivatives are a good class of ligand and could be used for future direct C-H functionalizations. The utilization of norbornene type ligands for assistance in C-H activation processes has opened a new window for future molecular design using direct C-H functionalization strategies.

- Biological evaluation of halogenated thioureas as cholinesterases inhibitors against alzheimer's disease & molecular modeling studies
-
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibition is thought to be an encouraging approach towards the therapy of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The current paper targets to give a concise information of mono and dihalo- substituted thioureas similarity with anti-AD potential. The present results represent evaluation of cholinesterase inhibitory potential for halogenated thioureas derivatives. Compound 1t was constituted to be highly potent inhibitor with Ki value 0.12 ± 0.05 μM against AChE, while 1b was most the active inhibitor for BChE with Ki value of 0.03 ± 0.001 μM. Molecular docking simulations were performed using the homology models of both cholinesterases in order to explore the plausible binding modes of synthesized compounds.

- Synthesis and evaluation of novel azoles as potent antifungal agents
-
Using a rational approach to the design of antifungal agents, a series of azole agents with 1,3,4-oxadiazole side chains were designed and synthesized. The results of preliminary in vitro antifungal tests with eight human pathogenic compounds showed that all of the title compounds exhibited excellent activities against all of the tested fungi except Aspergillus fumigatus. Compounds 11e and 11f were found to be the most effective, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.0039 μg/mL, followed by voriconazole, which has a MIC of 0.0625 μg/mL. The 1,3,4-oxadiazole side chain is not the major contributor but plays a role in eliciting the observed antifungal activity.

- Syntheses, third-order optical nonlinearity and DFT studies on benzoylferrocene derivatives
-
A series of benzoylferrocene derivatives were synthesized and their third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties were evaluated in N,N-dimethyl-formamide at 800 nm using femtosecond degenerate four-wave mixing. The third-order NLO susceptibilities of synthesized compounds were 3.065-7.859 × 10-13 esu, with the response times in 49-70 fs. The second-order hyperpolarizabilities of the molecules of the compounds were 1.018-2.611 × 10-31 esu. The Density Functional Theory was used to calculate these benzoylferrocene derivatives. The theoretical study showed that the third-order NLO properties were increased with the increasing electron-withdrawing ability, which is accordance with the decreasing energy gap between the highest occupied and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital. With the increasing of electron-withdrawing ability, the transferred charge to the substituent was increased and the affection on the electronic reallocate was increased. The experiment and theoretical results showed that the benzoylferrocene derivatives had potential nonlinear optical applications.

Small molecules with oxathiazol-2-one moiety were recently reported as potent inhibitors of Mycobacterium bovis var. bacilli Calmette-Guérin (BCG), among which HT1171 was the most potent and selective proteasome inhibitor. Herein we synthesized a series of novel compounds by bioisosteric replacement of the oxathiazol-2-one ring with 3H-1,2,4-dithiazol-3-one, and also fifteen 1,3,4-oxathiazol-2-one molecules in order for potency comparison and structure-activity relationship elucidation since their antibacterial effects on the virulent strains were not evaluated before. All the compounds were assessed for antitubercular activities on the virulent H37Rv strain by a serial dilution method. Among the tested compounds, 3H-1,2,4-dithiazol-3-one compound 4n was found to be the most active with a lowest MIC90 value of 1 μg/mL. Furthermore, the cytotoxicities of all the compounds against normal human liver cell line L02 were determined by an MTT method. Compound 4n displayed a lower inhibitory ratio than HT1171 at the concentration of 100 μM, indicating its better safety profile.

- Diaryl-1,2,4-oxadiazole antioxidants: Synthesis and properties of inhibiting the oxidation of DNA and scavenging radicals
-
Six 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives were prepared in order to compare their abilities to protect DNA against radical-mediated oxidation and to scavenge radicals. These derivatives had a structure based on disubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazole, in which a vanillin group (A ring) and a substituted benzene group (B ring) were the substituents. The functional group at B ring was assigned as ortho- or meta-hydroxylbenzene group, ortho-chlorobenzene group, no group contained, and pyridine group or vanillin group at B ring. It was found that the compound with two vanillin groups attaching to oxadiazole can trap 2.05 radicals in protecting DNA against 2,2′-azobis(2-amidinopropane hydrochloride) (AAPH)-induced oxidation, and the compound with an ortho-hydroxylbenzene group at B ring can trap 1.78 radicals. The compound with an ortho-chlorobenzene group at B ring exhibited the highest ability to inhibit ·OH-induced oxidation of DNA, while the compound with a meta-hydroxylbenzene group at B ring inhibited Cu2+/glutathione (GSH)-induced oxidation of DNA efficiently. The ortho- and para-hydroxylbenzene groups at B ring made the compounds possess the highest rate constant (k) in scavenging 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) cationic radical (ABTS+.) and 2,2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH). Therefore, only a few hydroxyl groups can markedly enhance the activity of the core-branched antioxidant, which may be a novel structural feature in designing antioxidant.

This biologically important class of molecules is prepared in an efficient and high-yielding manner from easily accessible starting materials. Both aryl bromides and iodides are effective substrates for the transformation. Mechanistic studies indicate that the reaction proceeds through a cyclopropyl C(sp3)-H cleavage step, followed by ring-opening, deprotonation, and reductive elimination.

- Synthesis and anticonvulsant activity of some N-(benzoyl)glycinanilide derivatives
-
Glycine is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter and recent studies have shown that certain lipophilic glycine derivatives demonstrate anticonvulsant activity in animal epilepsy models. On the other hand, anilide is another fruitful structure for designing potential anticonvulsant agents. Ameltolide, ralitoline and some phthalimide derivatives are the examples of anilide analogs with potent anticonvulsant activity. In this study, two key structural pharmacophores were combined and a series of N-benzoylglycinanilide derivatives were designed. Their anticonvulsant activities evaluated against maximal electroshock (MES) and subcutaneous metrazole seizure tests, whereas their neurotoxicity was examined by rotarod test. The preliminary screening results indicated that majority of the compounds were effective in the MES test. None of the compounds showed neurotoxicity according to the rotarod test at studied doses. The most active compound in the series is N-(2-((4-methoxyphenyl)amino)- 2-oxoethyl)benzamide (compound 8) which bearing 4-methoxy substituent on the N-phenyl ring.

-
A phosphane-free method for the direct arylation of benzothiazole by employing oxime-derived palladacycle 1 as a catalyst was developed. The new catalyst system can be used for 2-arylations by using aryl bromides and iodides. In addition, this method is especially suitable for the intramolecular direct coupling of bromo-and iodoamides, as well aschloroamides, to achieve a rapid synthesis of benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids. Direct arylation reactions under catalysis of an oxime-derived palladacycle were investigated. This phosphane-free method is applicable for the 2-arylation of benzothiazole and is especially suitable for the intramolecular direct coupling of bromo-and iodoamides, as well as chloroamides, to achieve rapid synthesis of benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids.

- A highly efficient copper-catalyzed method for the synthesis of 2-hydroxybenzamides in water
-
An efficient copper-catalyzed synthetic method for the preparation of 2-hydroxybenzamides is described for the first time from 2-chlorobenzamide substrates using copper iodide/1,10-phenanthroline and a base, potassium hydroxide, in neat water. By using this reaction, a series of 2-hydroxybenzamides with functional groups such as fluoro, chloro, iodo, methoxy, amide, and alcohol have been obtained in 33-96% yield. Other aromatic 2-chloroarylamides such as naphthalene, pyridine, and thiophene are found to be equally compatible to the reaction. It is proposed that the reaction proceed via formation of copper-amide complex, which may facilitate the hydroxylation in water. Overall, the first report on copper-catalyzed hydroxylation reaction in water and first catalytic route for the synthesis of 2-hydroxybenzamides is presented. Simple purification procedure and convenience of employing low-cost reagents in neat water make this method practical and economical for the synthesis of 2-hydroxybenzamides.

In response to the widespread use of β-lactam antibiotics bacteria have evolved drug resistance mechanisms that include the production of resistant Penicillin Binding Proteins (PBPs). Boronic acids are potent β-lactamase inhibitors and have been shown to display some specificity for soluble transpeptidases and PBPs, but their potential as inhibitors of the latter enzymes is yet to be widely explored. Recently, a (2,6-dimethoxybenzamido) methylboronic acid was identified as being a potent inhibitor of Actinomadura sp. R39 transpeptidase (IC50: 1.3 μM). In this work, we synthesized and studied the potential of a number of acylaminomethylboronic acids as inhibitors of PBPs from different classes. Several derivatives inhibited PBPs of classes A, B and C from penicillin sensitive strains. The (2-nitrobenzamido)methylboronic acid was identified as a good inhibitor of a class A PBP (PBP1b from Streptococcus pneumoniae, IC50 = 26 μM), a class B PBP (PBP2xR6 from Streptococcus pneumoniae, IC50 = 138 μM) and a class C PBP (R39 from Actinomadura sp., IC50 = 0.6 μM). This work opens new avenues towards the development of molecules that inhibit PBPs, and eventually display bactericidal effects, on distinct bacterial species.

- Pd(II)-catalyzed ortho trifluoromethylation of arenes and insights into the coordination mode of acidic amide directing groups
-
A Pd(II)-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of ortho C-H bonds with an array of N-arylbenzamides derived from benzoic acids is reported. N-Methylformamide has been identified as a crucial promoter of C-CF3 bond formation from the Pd center. X-ray characterization of the C-H insertion intermediate has revealed a rare coordination mode of acidic amides as directing groups and the origin of their capacity in directing C-H activation.

- Novel and efficient cyclization procedure for the synthesis of 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-thiadiazoles without using any ring-closing reagents
-
A novel method for the synthesis of 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-thiadiazoles via direct ring closure of 1,6-disubstituted-2,5-dithioureas in dimethylformanide without using any ring-closing reagents has been accidentally discovered. Repeated and extended experiments confirmed that this is a very simple and efficient way to synthesize these kinds of fine chemicals. A series of novel 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-thiadiazoles have been synthesized via this method in good yields.

- Synthesis and bioactivity of N-benzoyl-N'-[5-(2'-substituted phenyl)-2-furoyl] semicarbazide derivatives
-
In order to find novel chitin synthesis inhibitors (CSIs) with good activity, benzoylphenylurea, a typical kind of CSIs, was chosen as the lead compound and 15 novel derivatives containing furan moieties were designed by converting the urea linkage of benzoylphenylureas into a semicarbazide and changing the aniline part into furoyl groups. The title compounds were synthesized by the reaction of substituted benzoyl isocyanates with 5-(substituted phenyl)-2-furoyl hydrazine, and the structures were confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses (compound E2). The bioassay results indicated that the title compounds exhibit good insecticidal activity, especially towards Plutella xylostella L., but had lower fungicidal activity. Inspiringly, the title compounds possessed obvious anticancer activity against human promyelocytic leukemic cell line (HL-60), and some of the title compounds also had activity against human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (Bel-7402), human gastric carcinoma cell line (BGC-823), and human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line (KB). The results indicated that the linkage in the lead compounds was important to the bioactivity and spectra. The modification on the urea linkage is an effective strategy to discover new pesticide and drug candidates.

- 4-[1-(Substituted aryl/alkyl carbonyl)-benzoimidazol-2-yl]-benzenesulfonic acids: Synthesis, antimicrobial activity, QSAR studies, and antiviral evaluation
-
A series of 4-[1-(substituted aryl/alkyl carbonyl)-benzoimidazol-2-yl]- benzene sulphonic acids (1-20) was synthesized and evaluated, in vitro, for their antimicrobial activity and the results indicated that compounds 4-[1-(4-Nitrobenzoyl)-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl]-benzenesulfonic acid (9) and 4-(1-octadec-9-enoyl-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)-benzenesulfonic acid (18) were found to be the most active ones. QSAR investigations indicated that the multi-target QSAR model was effective in describing the antimicrobial activity over the one-target QSAR models. Further the mt-QSAR model indicated the importance of the topological parameter, Balaban index (J) followed by the electronic parameter, LUMO and topological parameter, valence second order molecular connectivity index (2χv) in describing the antimicrobial activity of synthesized compounds (1-20).
