- Novel coumarin-thiazolyl ester derivatives as potential DNA gyrase Inhibitors: Design, synthesis, and antibacterial activity
-
The design and synthesis of novel coumarin-thiazolyl ester derivatives of potent DNA gyrase inhibitory activity were the main aims of this study. All the novel synthesized compounds were examined for their antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli and Salmonella. Compound 8p exhibited excellent antibacterial activity against four bacteria strains with MIC values of 0.05, 0.05, 8, and 0.05 μg/mL, respectively. In vitro drug-resistant bacterial inhibition experiments indicated that compound 8p exhibited the best bacteriostatic effect in the selected compounds and four positive control drugs with MIC values of 4 μg/mL. In vitro enzyme inhibitory assay showed that compound 8p exhibited potent inhibition against DNA gyrase with IC50 values of 0.13 μM. The molecular docking model indicated that compounds 8p can bind well to the DNA gyrase by interacting with amino acid residues. This study demonstrated that the compound 8p can act as the most potent DNA gyrase inhibitor in the reported series of compounds and provide valuable information for the commercial DNA gyrase inhibiting bactericides.

- Efficient synthesis of 4-sulfanylcoumarins from 3-bromo-coumarins: Via a highly selective DABCO-mediated one-pot thia-Michael addition/elimination process
-
A facile and efficient protocol for the highly selective direct sulfanylation of 3-bromocoumarins under DABCO promotion, was developed. The transformation took place with aromatic and aliphatic thiols as well as with α,ω-dithiols, affording the expected products in very good to excellent yields. Simple and convenient ways to access 4-((ω-mercaptoalkyl) thio)coumarins and the dimeric 4,4′-(alkane-1,4-diylbis(sulfanediyl))bis(coumarins) were also devised with the use of α,ω-alkanedithiols in different ratios with regards to the starting 3-bromocoumarin. The transformation seems to proceed through the DABCO-mediated thia-Michael stereoselective addition of the thiolate anion to the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl system of the coumarin, followed by a DABCO-assisted stereoselective dehydrobromination of the resulting α-bromo carbonyl intermediate.

- Novel coumarin-pyrazole carboxamide derivatives as potential topoisomerase II inhibitors: Design, synthesis and antibacterial activity
-
The identification of novel Topoisomerase II (Topo II) inhibitors is one of the most attractive directions in the field of bactericide research and development. In our ongoing efforts to pursue the class of inhibitors, six series of 70 novel coumarin-pyrazole carboxamide derivatives were designed and synthesized. As a result of the evaluation against four destructive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli and Salmonella. Compound 8III-k (MIC = 0.25 mg/L) showed considerable inhibitory activity than ciprofloxacin (MIC = 0.5 mg/L) against Escherichia coli and 8V-c (MIC = 0.05 mg/L) exhibited excellent antibacterial activity than ciprofloxacin (MIC = 0.25 mg/L) against Salmonella. The selected compounds (8III-k, 8V-c and 8V-k) exhibit potent inhibition against Topo II and Topo IV with IC50 values (9.4–25 mg/L). Molecular docking model showed that the compounds 8V-c and 8V-k can bind well to the target by interacting with amino acid residues. It will provide some valuable information for the commercial Topo II inhibiting bactericides.
