Melanin pigment and melanogenesis are a two-edged sword. Melanin has a radioprotection role while melanogenesis has undesirable effects. Targeting the melanogenesis pathway, a series of kojyl thioether conjugated to different quinazolinone derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against mushroom tyrosinase. All the synthesized compounds were screened for their anti-tyrosinase activity and all derivatives displayed better potency than kojic acid as the positive control. In this regard, 5j and 5h as the most active compounds showed an IC50 value of 0.46 and 0.50 μM, respectively. In kinetic evaluation against tyrosinase, 5j depicted an uncompetitive inhibition pattern. Designed compounds also exhibited mild antioxidant capacity. Moreover, 5j and 5h achieved good potency against the B16F10 cell line to reduce the melanin content, whilst showing limited toxicity against malignant cells. The proposed binding mode of new inhibitors evaluated through molecular docking was consistent with the results of structure–activity relationship analysis.

Reaction of isatoic anhydride with aniline derivatives gave 2-amino-N-(aryl)benzamides. The latters reacted with phenylisothiocyanate in the presence of heteropolyacids in various solvents which afforded 3-(aryl)-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives. The effects of various heteropolyacids including Preyssler and Keggin on the yields and reaction times have been investigated.

In this study, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were used as green and eco-friendly media for the synthesis of substituted 2-mercaptoquinazolin-4(3H)-ones from different anthranilic acids and aliphatic or aromatic isothiocyanates. A model reaction on anthranilic acid and phenyl isothiocyanate was porformed in 20 choline chloride-based DESs at 80 °C to find the best solvent. Based on the product yield, choline chloride-urea (1:2) DES was found to be the most effective, while DESs acted both as solvents and catalysts. Desired compounds were prepared with moderate to good yields using stirring, microwave-assisted, and ultrasound-assisted synthesis. Significantly, higher yields were obtained with mixing and ultrasonication (16-76%), while microwave-induced synthesis showed lower effectiveness (13-49%). The specific contribution of this research is the use of DESs in combination with the above-mentioned green techniques for the synthesis of a wide range of derivatives. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by1H and13C NMR spectroscopy.

Click chemistry was used to synthesize a new series of thioquinazolinone molecules equipped with propargyl moiety,1,2,3-triazolyl and isoxazolyl rings. Our design was based on merging pharmacophores previously reported to exhibit COX-2 inhibitory activities to a thioquinazolinone-privileged scaffold. The synthesized compounds were subjected to in vitro cyclooxygenase COX-1/COX-2 and 15-LOX inhibition assays. Compounds 2c, 3b, 3h, 3j, and 3k showed COX-2 inhibition with IC50 (μM) 0.18, 0.19, 0.11, 0.16 and 0.17 respectively. These values were compared to celecoxib (IC50 0.05 μM), diclofenac (IC50 0.8 μM) and indomethacin (IC50 0.49 μM) reference drugs. They also showed 15-LOX inhibition with IC50 (μM) 6.21, 4.33, 7.62, 5.21 and 3.98 respectively. These values were compared with Zileuton (IC50 2.41 μM) and Meclofenamate sodium (IC50 5.64 μM) as positive controls. These compounds were further challenged by PMA-induced THP-1 differentiation assay where compounds 2c and 3j inhibited monocyte to macrophage differentiation efficiently with IC50 values of 4.78 μM and 5.63 μM, respectively, compared to that of diclofenac sodium (4.86 μM). On the other hand, 3h demonstrated a significantly increased potency compared to diclofenac in this assay (IC50 = 0.13 μM). The same compounds exhibited significant in vivo anti-inflammatory effect as indicated by the formalin-induced rat-paw edema test. Docking experiments of compounds 2c, 3b, 3h, 3j, and 3k into COX-2 binding pocket have been conducted, where strong binding interactions have been identified and effective overall docking scores have been recorded. Their drug-likeness has been assessed using Molinspiration, Molsoft and Pre-ADMET software products.
