- Design and synthesis of novel pyrazole-phenyl semicarbazone derivatives as potential α-glucosidase inhibitor: Kinetics and molecular dynamics simulation study
-
A series of novel pyrazole-phenyl semicarbazone derivatives were designed, synthesized, and screened for in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Given the importance of hydrogen bonding in promoting the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, pharmacophore modification was established. The docking results rationalized the idea of the design. All newly synthesized compounds exhibited excellent in vitro yeast α-glucosidase inhibition (IC50 values in the range of 65.1–695.0 μM) even much more potent than standard drug acarbose (IC50 = 750.0 μM). Among them, compounds 8o displayed the most potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity (IC50 = 65.1 ± 0.3 μM). Kinetic study of compound 8o revealed that it inhibited α-glucosidase in a competitive mode (Ki = 87.0 μM). Limited SAR suggested that electronic properties of substitutions have little effect on inhibitory potential of compounds. Cytotoxic studies demonstrated that the active compounds (8o, 8k, 8p, 8l, 8i, and 8a) compounds are also non-cytotoxic. The binding modes of the most potent compounds 8o, 8k, 8p, 8l and 8i was studied through in silico docking studies. Molecular dynamic simulations have been performed in order to explain the dynamic behavior and structural changes of the systems by the calculation of the root mean square deviation (RMSD) and root mean square fluctuation (RMSF).

- Design and synthesis of novel quinazolinone-pyrazole derivatives as potential α-glucosidase inhibitors: Structure-activity relationship, molecular modeling and kinetic study
-
In this study, a new series of quinazolinone-pyrazole hybrids were designed, synthesized and screened for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. The results of the in vitro screening indicated that all the molecular hybrids exhibited more inhibitory activity (IC50 values ranging from 60.5 ± 0.3 μM-186.6 ± 20 μM) in comparison to standard acarbose (IC50 = 750.0 ± 10.0 μM). Limited structure–activity relationship suggested that the variation in the inhibitory activities of the compounds affected by different substitutions on phenyl rings of diphenyl pyrazole moiety. The enzyme kinetic studies of the most potent compound 9i revealed that it inhibited α-glucosidase in a competitive mode with a Ki of 56 μM. Molecular docking study was performed to predict the putative binding interaction. As expected, all pharmacophoric moieties used in the initial structure design playing a pivotal role in the interaction with the binding site of the enzyme. In addition, by performing molecular dynamic investigation and MM-GBSA calculation, we investigated the difference in structural perturbation and dynamic behavior that is observed over α-glycosidase in complex with the most active compound and acarbose relative to unbound α-glycosidase enzyme.

- B(C6F5)3-Catalyzed Electron Donor-Acceptor Complex-Mediated Aerobic Sulfenylation of Indoles under Visible-Light Conditions
-
An efficient B(C6F5)3-catalyzed aerobic oxidative C-S cross-coupling reaction of thiophenol with indoles was developed, affording a wide range of diaryl sulfides in good yields. An electron donor-acceptor complex between B(C6F5)3 and indoles was formed, facilitating the photoinduced single-electron transfer (SET) from indole substrates to the B(C6F5)3 catalyst. This protocol demonstrates a new reaction model using B(C6F5)3 as a single-electron oxidant.

- Acid-catalyzed cleavage of C-C bonds enables atropaldehyde acetals as masked C2 electrophiles for organic synthesis
-
Acid-catalyzed tandem reactions of atropaldehyde acetals were established for the synthesis of three important molecules, 2,2-disubstituted indolin-3-ones, naphthofurans and stilbenes. The synthesis was realized using novel reaction cascades, which involved the same two initial steps: (i) SN2′ substitution, in which the atropaldehyde acted as an electrophile; and (ii) oxidative cleavage of the carbon-carbon bond of the generated phenylacetaldehyde-type products. Compared with literature methods, the present protocol not only avoided the use of expensive noble metal catalysts, but also enabled a simple operation.

- An iron(iii)-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling reaction of indoles with benzylamines to prepare 3-aminoindole derivatives
-
We report a green cascade approach to prepare a variety of 3-aminoindole derivatives in good to excellent yields through an iron(iii)-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling reaction of 2-arylindoles and primary benzylamines under mild reaction conditions. Mechanistic studies show that a cascade reaction involves a tert-butyl nitrite (TBN)-mediated nitrosation of 2-substituted indoles and a 1,5-hydrogen shift to afford indolenine oximes, sequential iron(iii)-catalyzed condensation and a 1,5-hydrogen shift over four steps in a one-pot reaction. The reaction shows a broad substrate scope of indoles and benzylamines and tolerates a wide range of functional groups. Moreover, the reaction is easily performed at the gram scale without producing waste after the reaction is completed. The 3-aminoindole product is purified by simple extraction, washing, and recrystallization without flash column chromatography. A double imine ligand containing the 3-aminoindole unit is facile to obtain in a 52% yield in one step. The present method highlights readily available starting materials, a simple purification procedure, and the usage of cheap, nontoxic, and environmentally benign iron(iii) catalysts. This journal is

- Discovery of New 4-Indolyl Quinazoline Derivatives as Highly Potent and Orally Bioavailable P-Glycoprotein Inhibitors
-
The major drawbacks of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors at the clinical stage make the development of new P-gp inhibitors challenging and desirable. In this study, we reported our structure-activity relationship studies of 4-indolyl quinazoline, which led to the discovery of a highly effective and orally active P-gp inhibitor, YS-370. YS-370 effectively reversed multidrug resistance (MDR) to paclitaxel and colchicine in SW620/AD300 and HEK293T-ABCB1 cells. YS-370 bound directly to P-gp, did not alter expression or subcellular localization of P-gp in SW620/AD300 cells, but increased the intracellular accumulation of paclitaxel. Furthermore, YS-370 stimulated the P-gp ATPase activity and had moderate inhibition against CYP3A4. Significantly, oral administration of YS-370 in combination with paclitaxel achieved much stronger antitumor activity in a xenograft model bearing SW620/Ad300 cells than either drug alone. Taken together, our data demonstrate that YS-370 is a promising P-gp inhibitor capable of overcoming MDR and represents a unique scaffold for the development of new P-gp inhibitors.

- Substituted imidazole-pyrazole clubbed scaffolds: Microwave assisted synthesis and examined their in-vitro antimicrobial and antituberculosis effects
-
A series of substituted imidazole-pyrazole fused compounds were designed & fused synthesized by employing Debus-Radziszewski one-pot synthesis reaction. Azoles are an extensive and comparatively new class of synthetic compounds including imidazoles and pyrazoles. The current clinical treatment uses compounds of azole framework. Azoles act by inhibiting ergosterol synthesis pathway (a principal component of the fungal cell wall). In addition, a literature review shows that the compounds that include imidazoles and pyrazoles have significant anti-bacterial and anti-mycobacterial effects. In light of the above findings, a series of compounds with imidazole and pyrazole scaffolds were sketched and developed to examine anti-bacterial, antifungal and anti-mycobacterial activities. The structures of the synthesized compounds were characterized using1HNMR,13CNMR, elemental analysis, and MS spectral data. The target compounds were screened for their in-vitro antimicrobial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial species by disc diffusion method according to the NCCLS (National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards) and anti-mycobacterial activity against the Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain. The results revealed that imidazole-pyrazole fused scaffold compounds have potential anti-bacterial, antifungal and anti-mycobacterial activities which can be further optimized to get a lead compound.

-
In continuation of our ongoing research on the discovery of novel and potentially bioactive aurones, we have designed and synthesized some novel N,N-dimethylaminopropoxy-substituted pyrazole-based aurones 10(a-l). These pyrazole-benzofuranone hybrid compounds were characterized by using their IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and mass spectrometry data. Compound 10c was used as a model to further explicate the structure of tilted compounds by means of 1H-1H COSY, 1H-13C HMQC, 1H-13C HMBC, 1H-1H TOCSY, 1H-1H NOSEY, DEPT-45°, DEPT-90°, and DEPT-135° NMR spectra. The comparative molecular docking study of N,N-dimethylaminopropoxy-substituted pyrazole-based aurones and standard drugs (Ampicillin and Chloramphenicol) against Bacillus subtilis (PDB: 6tzp) active site was performed to determine the binding interactions, binding energy, and orientation of the molecules at the active site of the target protein. Out of these synthesized compounds, five best analogs (10b, 10f, 10h, 10k, and 10l) of docking results were also evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial potential against Bacillus subtilis to validate the docking results.

The synthesis of 4-formylpyrazoles using Vilsmeier-Haack reagent is a common protocol in pyrazole chemistry. An efficient microwave-assisted synthesis of 4-formylpyrazoles by employing Vilsmeier-Haack reagent (OPC-VH) derived from phthaloyl dichloride/dimethylformamide has been described. This method offers the advantages of operational simplicity, avoiding the use of POCl3 as toxic reagents and reuse of the by-product in the preparation of phthaloyl dichloride.

- Chiral Br?nsted Acid from Chiral Phosphoric Acid Boron Complex and Water: Asymmetric Reduction of Indoles
-
A new chiral Br?nsted acid, generated in situ from a chiral phosphoric acid boron (CPAB) complex and water, was successfully applied to asymmetric indole reduction. This “designer acid catalyst”, which is more acidic than TsOH as suggested by DFT calculations, allows the unprecedented direct asymmetric reduction of C2-aryl-substituted N-unprotected indoles and features good to excellent enantioselectivities with broad functional group tolerance. DFT calculations and mechanistic experiments indicates that this reaction undergoes C3-protonation and hydride-transfer processes. Besides, bulky C2-alkyl-substituted N-unprotected indoles are also suitable for this system.

- Microwave-assisted synthesis and biological evaluation of pyrazole-4-carbonitriles as antimicrobial agents

An efficient microwave-assisted method of synthesis of pyrazole-4-carbonitriles has been developed. Condensation of pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes with hydroxylamine hydrochloride followed by reaction of the resulting oximes with the Vilsmeier-Haack reagent pre-formed from phthaloyl dichloride and dimethylformamide under microwave irradiation afforded the corresponding pyrazole-4-carbonitriles in 73percent to 91percent yield. The operational simplicity, avoidance of toxic reagents such as POCl3, shorter reaction time, higher yield compared to the classical version, easy work up, and the use of the by-product in the regeneration of phthaloyl dichloride are the advantages of this methodology. All the target compounds were tested for antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus; Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Yersinia enterocolitica, and the fungal species Candida albicans.

- Synthesis and computational studies of highly selective inhibitors of human recombinant tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (h-TNAP): A therapeutic target against vascular calcification
-
In this study, we have discovered small druglike molecules as selective inhibitors of human tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (h-TNAP), an enzyme critical for the regulation of extracellular matrix calcification. The upregulation of h-TNAP is associated with various pathologies particularly the vascular calcification (VC). Selective inhibition of h-TNAP over h-NPP1 may serve as a useful therapeutic strategy against vascular calcification. A series of novel triazolyl pyrazole derivatives (10a-y) in which thiol bearing triazole moiety as the zinc binding functional group was introduced to a pyrazole based pharmacophore was synthesized and evaluated as potent and selective inhibitors of h-TNAP over h-NPP1. The biological screening against h-TNAP, h-IAP, h-NPP1 and h-NPP3 showed that many of the synthesized compounds are selective inhibitors of TNAP. Particularly, the compounds 10a-h, 10j, 10m-q, 10u, 10w and 10x displayed high potency and complete selectivity towards h-TNAP over h-NPP1. Compound 10q emerged as a highly potent inhibitor (IC50 = 0.16 μM or 160 nM) against h-TNAP with 127-fold increased inhibition compared to levamisole. On the other hand, compound 10e was found to be most selective inhibitor against the tested APs and NPPs (IC50 = 1.59 ± 0.36 μM). Binding sites architecture analysis, molecular-docking and molecular dynamics simulations (MDS), revealed the basis for h-TNAP and h-IAP ligand selectivity as well as selectivity towards h-TNAP over h-NPP1. These newly discovered inhibitors are believed to represent valuable lead structures to further streamline the generation of candidate compounds to target VC.

The aim of this study was to synthesize newer potent Schiff bases by condensing 2-amino-5-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)thiophene-3-carbonitrile and 1,3-disubstituted-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes, and to investigate their biological activity. The compounds were synthesized via Gewald synthesis and characterized by spectral data and elemental analyses. They were screened for their in vitro antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities. The synthesized compounds were also evaluated for in vitro antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv using the microplate Alamar Blue assay. Compounds 8b, 8c, 8f, 8g, 8k, 8n, and 8o showed promising antibacterial activity. The interactions between the substituted pyrazoles and bovine protein showed promising anti-inflammatory activity. The experimental results revealed compound 8a as a promising antitubercular agent. Hemolytic assays confirmed that the compounds are nontoxic, with percentage hemolysis ranging from 3.6 to 20.1, at a concentration of 1 mg/ml. The results suggest that the pyrazole ring and the substitution pattern on the heterocyclic moiety have an effect on the bioactivity.

- Pyrazolylphenanthroimidazole heterocycles: Synthesis, biological and molecular docking studies
-
The synthesis of a series of novel pyrazolylphenanthroimidazoles 6a-6j has been accomplished utilizing a multi-step synthetic protocol, and characterized through physical and spectral techniques. Among them, the molecules possessing para-bromo (6d), para-methyl (6f) and para-nitro (6j) phenyl substituents on the pyrazole scaffold displayed similar anti-inflammatory activity and the one with no substituents on the aryl unit (6a) exhibited the highest anti-inflammatory profile. While investigating the DPPH radical scavenging activity, the synthesized chemical entity with a para-methoxyphenyl group attached at the pyrazole structural motif (6i) revealed the highest activity when compared to the other synthesized molecules. Furthermore, the evaluation of cytotoxic activity of the synthesized molecule (6a) exerted significant activity against both the pancreatic cell lines such as AsPC1 and SW1990. Besides, while performing the molecular docking studies of 6a with B-cell lymphoma 2, an appreciable binding affinity (-9.04 kcal mol-1) has been observed. The results of the present examination imply that these chemical entities could be used as efficient intermediates for the construction of biopertinent molecules. This journal is

Abstract: A new series of difluoro phenyl pyrazole chalcone was prepared by utilizing PEG 400 as a catalyst and investigated for their antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activity. The compounds 3-[3-(4-bromo-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-1-(2,4-difluloro-phenyl)-propenone (IVc), 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-[3-(4-methyl-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-propenone (IVd), 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-propenone (IVe), and 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-propenone (IVg) exhibited promising antifungal activity at MIC of 25 and 50 μg/mL against selected human pathogenic fungi. Synthesized compounds 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-propenone (IVe), 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-[3-(4-methyl-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-propenone (IVd), 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-propenone (IVg) and 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-[3-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-propenone (IVa) showed good anti-inflammatory activities comparable to the standard drug diclofenac sodium. Compounds 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-propenone (IVe), 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-[3-(4-methyl-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-propenone (IVd) and 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-propenone (IVg) showed good hydrogen peroxide scavenging potential as compared to the butylated hydroxyl toluene. The conjugates 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-propenone (IVe), 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-propenone (IVg), and 1-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-3-[3-(4-methyl-phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-propenone (IVd) found more potent than standard ascorbic acid in DPPH radical scavenging assay as well as ferrous reducing power assay. The conjugates showed good interactions with the target protein in docking study.

- In vitro studies of potent aldose reductase inhibitors: Synthesis, characterization, biological evaluation and docking analysis of rhodanine-3-hippuric acid derivatives
-
Inhibitors of aldose reductase are rate-limiting enzymes and could play a key role to prevent the complications of diabetes. In our attempt to develop novel inhibitors of aldose reductase, the derivatives of rhodanine-3-hippuric acid-pyrazole hybrid were synthesized and characterised by spectral data. The biological studies reveal that all the compounds show an excellent activity against ALR2 with IC50 values ranging from 0.04 to 1.36 μM. Among these the synthesised compounds 6a-m, 6g and 6e showed specific inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 0.04 and 0.06 μM respectively against ALR2 and found to be more potent than epalrestat (IC50 = 0.87 μM), the only aldose reductase inhibitor currently used in the therapy. Molecular docking analysis using the AR-NADP+ complex as a receptor was performed with all the synthesized compounds. All the compounds exhibit a well-defined binding mode within the AR active site, similarly to previous described AR inhibitors, with the anion head group bound to the catalytic center, blocking thus its activity. By forming hydrogen bonds with Tyr48 and His110 of the protein from ALR2 (PDB ID: 2FZD), the compounds 6g and 6e interrupt the proton donation mechanism, which is necessary for the catalytic activity of ALR2.

-
A series of new pyrazole linked benzothiazole-β-naphthol derivatives were designed and synthesized using a simple, efficient and ecofriendly route under catalyst-free conditions in good to excellent yields. These derivatives were evaluated for their cytotoxicity on selected human cancer cell lines. Among those, the derivatives 4j, 4k and 4l exhibited considerable cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging between 4.63 and 5.54 μM against human cervical cancer cells (HeLa). Structure activity relationship was elucidated by varying different substituents on benzothiazoles and pyrazoles. Further, flow cytometric analysis revealed that these derivatives induced cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase and spectroscopic studies such as UV–visible, fluorescence and circular dichroism studies showed that these derivatives exhibited good DNA binding affinity. Additionally, these derivatives can effectively inhibit the topoisomerase I activity. Viscosity studies and molecular docking studies demonstrated that the derivatives bind with the minor groove of the DNA.

-
Two series of 1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazole derivatives containing rhodanine-3-alkanoic acid groups were identified as competitive protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitors. Among the compounds studied, IIIv was found to have the best in vitro inhibition activity against PTP1B (IC50 = 0.67 ± 0.09 μM) and the best selectivity (9-fold) between PTP1B and T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase (TCPTP). Molecular docking studies demonstrated that compounds IIIm, IIIv and IVg could occupy simultaneously at both the catalytic site and the adjacent pTyr binding site. These results provide novel lead compounds for the design of inhibitors of PTP1B as well as other PTPs.

- Unveiling novel diphenyl-1H-pyrazole based acrylates tethered to 1,2,3-triazole as promising apoptosis inducing cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory agents
-
Meagre and suboptimal therapeutic response along with the side effect profile associated with the existing anticancer therapy have necessitated the development of new therapeutic modalities to curb this disease. Bearing in mind the current scenario, a series of 1,2,3-triazole linked 3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)acrylates was synthesized following a multi-step reaction scheme. Initial screening for anticancer potential was done by in vitro sulforhodamine B assay against four human cancer cell lines- MCF-7 (breast), A549 (Lung) and HCT-116 and HT-29 (Colon). On evaluation, several compounds showed promising growth inhibition against all the cell lines, particularly compounds 6e, 6f and 6n. Among them, compound 6f displayed IC50 values of 1.962, 3.597, 1.764 and 4.496 μM against A549, HCT-116, MCF-7 and HT-29 cell lines respectively. Furthermore, the apoptosis inducing potential of the compounds was determined by Hoechst staining and DNA fragmentation assay. Colony formation inhibition assay was also carried out to determine the long term cytotoxic potential of the molecules. Moreover, compounds 6e, 6f and 6n were also evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity by protein albumin denaturation assay and red blood cell membrane stabilizing assay.

- Probing the high potency of pyrazolyl pyrimidinetriones and thioxopyrimidinediones as selective and efficient non-nucleotide inhibitors of recombinant human ectonucleotidases
-
With the aim to discover novel, efficient and selective inhibitors of human alkaline phosphatase and nucleotide pyrophosphatase enzymes, two new series of pyrazolyl pyrimidinetriones (PPTs) (6a–g) and thioxopyrimidinediones (PTPs) (6h–n) were synthesized in good chemical yields using Knoevenagel condensation reaction between pyrazole carbaldehydes (4a–g) and pharmacologically active N-alkylated pyrimidinetrione (5a) and thioxopyrimidinedione (5b). The inhibition potential of the synthesized hybrid compounds was evaluated against human alkaline phosphatase (h-TNAP and h-IAP) and ectonucleotidase (h-NPP1 and h-NPP3) enzymes. Most of the tested analogs were highly potent with a variable degree of inhibition depending on the functionalized hybrid structure. The detailed structure-activity relationship (SAR) of PPT and PTP derivatives suggested that the compound with unsubstituted phenyl ring from PPT series led to selective and potent inhibition (6a; IC50 = 0.33 ± 0.02 μM) of h-TNAP, whereas compound 6c selectively inhibited h-IAP isozyme with IC50 value of 0.86 ± 0.04 μM. Similarly, compounds 6b and 6h were identified as the lead scaffolds against h-NPP1 and h-NPP3, respectively. The probable binding modes for the most potent inhibitors were elucidated through molecular docking analysis. Structure-activity relationships, mechanism of action, cytotoxic effects and druglikeness properties are also discussed.

- Targeting malaria and leishmaniasis: Synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of novel pyrazole-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrids. Part II
-
In continuance with earlier reported work, an extension has been carried out by the same research group. Mulling over the ongoing condition of resistance to existing antimalarial agents, we had reported synthesis and antimalarial activity of certain pyrazole-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrid compounds. Bearing previous results in mind, our research group ideated to design and synthesize some more derivatives with varied substitutions of acetophenone and hydrazide. Following this, derivatives 5a–r were synthesized and tested for antimalarial efficacy by schizont maturation inhibition assay. Further, depending on the literature support and results of our previous series, certain potent compounds (5f, 5n and 5r) were subjected to Falcipain-2 inhibitory assay. Results obtained for these particular compounds further strengthened our hypothesis. Here, in this series, compound 5f having unsubstituted acetophenone part and a furan moiety linked to oxadiazole ring emerged as the most potent compound and results were found to be comparable to that of the most potent compound (indole bearing) of previous series. Additionally, depending on the available literature, compounds (5a–r) were tested for their antileishmanial potential. Compounds 5a, 5c and 5r demonstrated dose-dependent killing of the promastigotes. Their IC50 values were found to be 33.3 ± 1.68, 40.1 ± 1.0 and 19.0 ± 1.47 μg/mL respectively. These compounds (5a, 5c and 5r) also had effects on amastigote infectivity with IC50 of 44.2 ± 2.72, 66.8 ± 2.05 and 73.1 ± 1.69 μg/mL respectively. Further target validation was done using molecular docking studies. Acute oral toxicity studies for most active compounds were also performed.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of thiazolidine-2,4-dione-pyrazole conjugates as antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agents
-
A series of fourteen novel thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives clubbed with pyrazole moiety were synthesized via four step reaction procedure. Reactions were monitored by thin layer chromatography and were characterized by physicochemical and spectrophotometric (IR, Mass, 1HNMR and 13CNMR) analysis. The spectral data were in good agreement with their structures. The title compounds were docked against peroxisome proliferated activated receptors (PPAR-γ) and alpha-amylase and further evaluated for in vivo and in vitro antidiabetic, in vitro anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. Compound GB14 exhibited significant blood glucose lowering activity and was also found to be active inhibitor of alpha-amylase. Compound GB7 was found to be potent anti-inflammatory agent in terms of reducing inflammatory markers (TNF-α, IL-β, MDA) and also showed antioxidant activity to good extent. Therefore, these compounds may be considered as promising candidates for the development of new antidiabetic agents.

- Novel acetohydrazide pyrazole derivatives: Design, synthesis, characterization and antimicrobial activity
-
Eleven acetohydrazide linked pyrazole derivatives were designed and synthesized via condensation of acetohyadrazide with different substituted formyl pyrazole derivatives under mild reaction conditions. Synthesized compounds were characterized on the basis of IR, NMR (1H & 13C) and mass spectrometry. The antimicrobial activities of all the compounds were screened against four bacterial and two fungal strains. Among the synthesized compounds, three compounds viz. 6b, 6c and 6d were found as efficient antimicrobial agents in reference to the standard drugs viz. ciprofloxacin and amphotericin-B. Further, structure-activity relationship (SAR) study revealed that electron-withdrawing group enhances the antimicrobial potential of synthesized derivatives as compared to other groups present in the ring. Hence, among compounds 6b-c, compound 6d could be explored further against other microbes to prove its vitality.

- Synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular docking of benzimidazole grafted benzsulfamide-containing pyrazole ring derivatives as novel tubulin polymerization inhibitors
-
Tubulin-targeting drugs have increasingly become the focus of anticancer drugs research. Twenty-five novel benzimidazole grafted benzsulfamide-containing pyrazole ring derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for bioactivity as potential tubulin polymerization inhibitors. Among them, compound 30 showed the most excellent inhibition against tubulin assembly (IC50 = 1.52 μM) and in vitro growth inhibitory activity against a panel of four human cancer cell lines (IC50 = 0.15, 0.21, 0.33 and 0.17 μM, respectively for A549, Hela, HepG2 and MCF-7). It could also validly induce A549 cell apoptosis, cause cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase and disrupt the cellular microtubule network. These results, along with molecular docking data, provided an important basis for further optimization of compound 30 as a potential anticancer agent.

- Synthesis of novel dihydrotriazine derivatives bearing 1,3-diaryl pyrazole moieties as potential antibacterial agents
-
Three novel series of dihydrotriazine derivatives bearing 1,3-diaryl pyrazole moieties were designed, synthesized and evaluated in terms of their antibacterial and antifungal activities. Most of the synthesized compounds showed potent inhibition of several Gram-positive bacterial strains (including multidrug-resistant clinical isolates) and Gram-negative bacterial strains with minimum inhibitory concentration values in the range of 1–64 μg/mL. Compounds 4b and 4c presented the most potent inhibitory activity against Gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus 4220, MRSA 3167, QRSA 3519) and Gram-negative bacteria (E. coli 1924), with minimum inhibitory concentration values of 1 or 2 μg/mL. Compared with previous studies, these compounds exhibited a broad spectrum of inhibitory activity. The cytotoxic activity of the compounds 4a, 4b, 4c and 11n were assessed in L02 cells. In vitro enzyme study implied that compound 4c exerted its antibacterial activity through DHFR inhibition.

Abstract: A series of new Schiff bases were synthesized by microwave assisted reactions of substituted 1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde and 2-aminophenol in ethanol and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic (IR, 1H NMR and MS) data. The crystal structures of four compounds were studied using single-crystal XRD data. Molecular docking studies of all synthesized compounds were performed into the binding site of a protein 3GCW to gain comprehensive understanding into possible binding modes. These compounds were also screened for anticancer activity against the liver (HEP-G2) cell line using the sulphorhodamine-B assay method. Adriamycin i.e. doxorubicin was used as reference standard. One of the compounds shows anticancer activity close to the famous anticancer agent doxorubicin, which was used as control in this study. It is observed that all molecules show activity close to the standard in high concentrations only. Graphical Abstract: Present study describes the anticancer activity and crystal structure study of Schiff bases of substituted pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde with 2-aminophenol. Docking study of all compounds against human hepatoma cell line, HEP-G2 correlates with in vitro activity. [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

- Sulfamic acid as a green, reusable catalyst for stepwise, tandem & one-pot solvent-free synthesis of pyrazole derivatives
-
Sulfamic acid (SA) is a bi-functional, cost-effective and reusable green catalyst for the synthesis of 4-(pyrazol-4-yl)methylenepyrazol-5(4H)-one derivatives by one-pot, three-component condensation of pyrazol-4-carbaxaldehydes, β-ketoesters and phenyl hydrazine (Route-I). In addition to this method, another simple condensation of pyrazol-4-carbaxaldehydes with pyrazolone in the presence of SA under the solvent-free condition in good yield is reported. The merits of these protocols are mild conditions, non-aqueous workup, high yields, easy availability of the catalyst, no chromatographic separation and inexpensive solid acid catalyst. Furthermore, SA could be recycled and reused for five times without losing its catalytic activity.

A series of novel diaryl substituted pyrazolyl 2,4-thiazolidinediones were synthesized via reaction of appropriate pyrazolecarboxaldehydes with 2,4-thiazolidinedione (TZD) and nitrobenzyl substituted 2,4-thiazolidinedione. The resulting compounds were screened in vitro for pancreatic lipase (PL) inhibitory activity. Two assay protocols were performed viz., methods A and B using p-nitrophenyl butyrate and tributyrin as substrates, respectively. Compound 11e exhibited potent PL inhibitory activity (IC50?=?4.81?μM and Xi50?=?10.01, respectively in method A and B), comparable to that of the standard drug, orlistat (IC50?=?0.99?μM and Xi50?=?3.72). Presence of nitrobenzyl group at N-3 position of TZD and nature of substituent at para position of phenyl ring at C-3 position of pyrazole ring notably affected the PL inhibitory activity of the tested compounds. Enzyme inhibition kinetics of 11e revealed its reversible competitive inhibition, similar to that of orlistat. Molecular docking studies validated the rationale of pharmacophoric design and are in accordance to the in vitro results. Compound 11e exhibited a potential MolDock score of ?153.349?kcal/mol. Further, the diaryl pyrazolyl wing exhibited hydrophobic interactions with the amino acids of the hydrophobic lid domain. Moreover, the carbonyl group at 2nd position of the TZD ring existed adjacent to Ser 152 (≈3??) similar to that of orlistat. A 10?ns molecular dynamics simulation of 11e–PL complex revealed a stable binding conformation of 11e in the active site of PL (Maximum RMSD?≈?3??). The present study identified novel thiazolidinedione based leads with promising PL inhibitory activity. Further development of the leads might result in potent PL inhibitors.
