A series of 5-arylidenethiazolidine-2,4-diones was synthesized by the Knoevenagel condensation of thiazolidine-2,4-dione with aromatic aldehydes with alkaline ionic liquid l-butyl-3-mefhylimidazolium hydroxide ([bmim]OH) as dual solvent and catalyst. This

Hybridization of two different bioactive molecules with different mechanism of action is one of the methods that are being adopted to treat cancer. Molecules bearing a thiazolidine-2,4-dione scaffold have been recognized as antineoplastic agents with a broad spectrum of activity against many cancer cell lines. In this manuscript we have described the synthesis and biological evaluation of two series of N-3-substituted-5-arylidene thiazolidine-2,4-diones, bearing the α-bromoacryloylamido moiety at the para- or meta-position on the phenyl of the arylidene portion. We have observed that selected compounds 5a, 5c and 5g suppress proliferation of human myeloid leukaemia HL-60 and U937 cells by triggering morphological changes and internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, which are well-known features of apoptosis. Finally, our results indicated that the investigated compounds induced apoptotic cell death through a mechanism that involved activation of multiple caspases and was also associated with the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria.

Mur ligases catalyze the biosynthesis of the UDP-MurNAc-pentapeptide precursor of peptidoglycan, an essential polymer of bacterial cell-wall. They constitute attractive targets for the development of novel antibacterial agents. Here we report on the synth
