Background: Carbamate compounds have attracted a great deal of interest in medicinal chemistry due to their inhibition potential against cholinesterase enzymes. Method: Hence, this study was undertaken to synthesize new piperazine derivatives including dithiocarbamate moiety, which is the bioisoster of carbamate. Twenty eight 4-(dimethylaminoalkyl) piperazine-1-carbodithioate derivatives (3a-3n, 4a-4n) were synthesized. Chemical structures of these compounds were confirmed by spectral data. Ellman's assay was applied in order to investigate inhibitory potency of the compounds against Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) enzymes. Results and Conclusion: It was determined that some of the compounds have remarkable activity on AChE. ADME (Absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination) predictions were theoretically performed for all compounds in the series. Enzyme kinetics and molecular docking studies were carried out for the most active compound (3n) and nature of inhibition and interactions between enzyme and ligand were described.

Several flexible and rigid analogs of 4H-1,2,4-triazoles (compounds 8a-g and 9a-g) bearing trimethoxyphenyl pharmacophoric unit, were designed and synthesized as potential anticancer agents. The in vitro cytotoxic assay indicated that both flexible and rigid analogs (8 and 9, respectively) can potentially inhibit the growth of cancerous cells (A549, MCF7, and SKOV3), with IC50 values less than 5.0 μM. Furthermore, compounds 10a-l as regional isomers of compounds 9 exhibited remarkable cytotoxic activity with IC50 values ranging from 0.30 to 5.0 μM. The rigid analogs 9a, 10h and 10k were significantly more potent than etoposide against MCF7, SKOV3 and A549 cells, respectively. These compounds showed high selectivity towards cancer cells over normal cells, as they had no significant cytotoxicity against L929 cells. In addition, the representative compounds 9a and 10h could inhibit the tubulin polymerization at micro-molar levels. By determining changes in the colchicine-tubulin fluorescence, it was suggested that compound 10h could bind to the tubulin at the colchicine pocket. The molecular docking study further confirmed the inhibitory activity of promising compounds 9a, 10h and 10k on tubulin polymerization through binding to the colchicine-binding site.

The invention relates to the field of medicines, and particularly discloses a BuChE-IDO1 inhibitor as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The 7-chlorine-3-substituted benzothiophene part of sertaconazole is chemically modified, the influence of the 7-chlorine-3-substituted benzothiophene part of sertaconazole on the in-vitro inhibitory activity of AChE, BuChE and IDO1 is explored, the target compound is further optimized, and the technical problems that an existing BuChE-IDO1 inhibitor is poor in pertinence and safety are solved. What is explored is that an appropriate substituent group introduced to a 2-benzothiazole ring can form additional interaction with surrounding amino acids and heme iron, so that the binding affinity of the analogue with BuChE and IDO1 is increased, and a new idea is broadened for more efficient and targeted treatment of advanced AD diseases.

The assertion made by Wu et al. that aromaticity may have considerable implications for molecular design motivated us to use nucleus-independent chemical shifts (NICS) as an aromaticity criterion to evaluate the antifungal activity of two series of indol-4-ones. A linear regression analysis of NICS and antifungal activity showed that both tested variables were significantly related (p –1 for Candida glabrata, Candida krusei and Candida guilliermondii with compounds 15-32, 15-15 and 15-1. The MIC for filamentous fungi was 1.95 μg·mL–1 for Aspergillus niger for compounds 15-1, 15-33 and 15-34. The results obtained support the use of NICS in the molecular design of compounds with antifungal activity.
