Benzodiazepines (BZDs) represent a class of privilege scaffold in the modern era of medicinal chemistry as CNS active agents and BZD based drugs are used to treat different psychotic disorders. Inspired from the therapeutic potential of BZDs as promising CNS active agents, in the present work three different series of 1,5-benzodiazepines bearing various substitutions at position 2 and 4 of the benzodiazepine core were synthesized by condensing different substituted chalcones with o-phenylenediamine in the presence of piperidine as a base catalyst. Structural characterization of title compounds was done by using various analytical techniques such as IR, NMR, elemental analysis and mass spectral data. All the synthesized compounds (9a-d, 10a-e and 11a-c) were subjected to in vivo neuropharmacological studies to evaluate their CNS depressant and antiepileptic activity. Results of in vivo evaluation data showed that analogue 11b exhibited potent CNS depressant activity which was comparable to the standard drug diazepam. Compounds 10b and 10c displayed significant antiepileptic activity however they were less potent than the standard drug phenobarbitone. Molecular docking studies were performed using MOE software to find the interaction pattern and binding mode at the GABAA receptor (PDB Id: 6HUP). The results of the docking studies were in good agreement with the observed in vivo activity and revealed the satisfactory binding mode of the compounds within the binding site of the protein. The docking scores for the most promising candidates 10c, 11b and Diazepam were found to be ?9.18, ?9.46 and ?9.88, respectively. Further, the compounds showed compliance with the Lipinski's ‘rule of five’ and exhibited favourable drug-likeness scores. The identified leads can be explored further for the design and development of new BZD based psychotropic agents.

This paper presents a novel solvent free method of synthesis of trans-chalcones. The method was based on ultrasound irradiation of the reagents (aryl methyl ketones and aryl aldehydes) in presence of commercial acid-montmorillonites as catalysts. The trans-chalcones were synthesized in high yields (85-95%) and excellent selectivity in a short reaction time.

Background: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors have emerged as antihyperglycemic agents that improve glycemic control in type 2 diabetic patients, either as monotherapy or in combination with other antidiabetic drugs. Methods: A novel series of dihydropyrimidine phthalimide hybrids was synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro and in vivo DPP-4 inhibition activity and selectivity using alogliptin as reference. Oral glucose tolerance test was assessed in type 2 diabetic rats after chronic treatment with the synthesized hybrids ± metformin. Cytotoxicity and antioxidant assays were performed. Additionally, molecular docking study with DPP-4 and structure activity relationship of the novel hybrids were also studied. Results: Among the synthesized hybrids, 10g, 10i, 10e, 10d and 10b had stronger in vitro DPP-4 inhibitory activity than alogliptin. Moreover, an in vivo DPP-4 inhibition assay revealed that 10g and 10i have the strongest and the most extended blood DPP-4 inhibitory activity compared to alogliptin. In type 2 diabetic rats, hybrids 10g, 10i and 10e exhibited better glycemic control than alogliptin, an effect that further supported by metformin combination. Finally, 10j, 10e, 10h and 10d had the highest radical scavenging activity in DPPH assay. Conclusions: Hybrids 10g, 10i and 10e are potent DPP-4 inhibitors which may be beneficial for T2DM treatment.

In a wide search program towards a biologically active antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agents, a series of 3,5-diaryl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazoline have been synthesized with excellent yields employing microwave techniques starting from substituted α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds which undergo cyclization reactions with phenylhydrazine. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were characterized and confirmed on the basis of FT-IR, 1H NMR and mass spectral analyses. The synthesized compounds 3,5-diaryl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolines had shown significant activity against Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 87), Escherichia coli (MTCC 40), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MTCC 424) and Proteus vulgaris (MTCC 426) by cup plate method using tetracycline-SD 037 as a reference standard. The anti-inflammatory property of 1,3,5-diaryl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolines were screened by using carragenan induced paw edema method in Wistar rat. The anti-inflammatory activities were comparable to that of the standard drug diclofenac. The safety of 3,5-diaryl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolines were reflected by toxicity studies.
