Quorum sensing is a well-known term for describing bacterial cell-cell communication. Bacteria use quorum sensing pathways to respond to external factors such as nutrient availability, defense mechanisms, and coordinate host toxic behaviors such as biofilm formation, virulence production, and other pathogenesis. Discovery of novel compounds which inhibit quorum sensing without being antibiotic are currently emerging fields. Herein, the library of fifteen benzo[d]thiazole/quinoline-2-thiol bearing 2-oxo-2-substituted-phenylethan-1-yl compounds was designed, synthesized and evaluated to find novel quorum sensing inhibitors. Firstly, compounds were evaluated for their growth inhibitory activities at high concentrations up to 1000 μg mL?1towardPseudomonas aeruginosa. Under our conditions, twelve compounds showed moderate growth inhibitory activities in the concentration tested. To our delight, three compounds3,6and7do not affect the growth of the bacteria which were chosen for the evaluation of quorum sensing inhibitor activities. In theLasBsystem, our compounds3,6,7showed promising quorum-sensing inhibitors with IC50of 115.2 μg mL?1, 182.2 μg mL?1and 45.5 μg mL?1, respectively. In thePqsRsystem, no activity observed suggesting that the selectivity of the compound toward theLasBsystem. In addition,7showed the moderate anti-biofilm formation ofPseudomonas aeruginosa. Docking studies revealed that3,6and7binding to the active site ofPseudomonas aeruginosaquorum sensingLasRsystem with better affinity compared to reference compounds4-NPO. Finally, computation calculations suggest that compounds are a good template for further drug development.

The fungal plasma membrane H+-ATPase (Pma1p) is a potential target for the discovery of new antifungal agents. Surprisingly, no structure–activity relationship studies for small molecules targeting Pma1p have been reported. Herein, we disclose a LEGO-inspired fragment assembly strategy for the design, synthesis, and discovery of benzo[d]thiazoles containing a 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl moiety as potential Pma1p inhibitors. A series of 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-ylthio)-1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethanones was found to inhibit Pma1p, with the most potent IC50 value of 8 μm in an in vitro plasma membrane H+-ATPase assay. These compounds were also found to strongly inhibit the action of proton pumping when Pma1p was reconstituted into liposomes. 1-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-2-((6-(trifluoromethyl)benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)thio)ethan-1-one (compound 38) showed inhibitory activities on the growth of Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which could be correlated and substantiated with the ability to inhibit Pma1p in vitro.
