Background: From the point of view of medicinal chemistry, compounds containing phenolic and pyrazolic moiety are significant since they are often constituents of bioactive compounds. Objective: The aims of this study were to synthesize pyrazole derivatives of medically relevant phenolic acids, confirm their structure, and evaluate their antioxidative and anti-LOX activities. Methods: Phenolic pyrazole derivatives were obtained, starting from esters of medically relevant phenolic acids. The structures of all obtained compounds were determined by NMR and IR spectroscopy, and UV-Vis spectrophotometry. In addition, the single-crystal X-ray diffraction was used. Pyrazole derivatives were tested for their in vitro antioxidative (DPPH assay), and lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibitory ac-tivities. Radical quenching mechanism was estimated using DFT and thermodynamic approach, while molecular docking was used to estimate the binding mode within the enzyme. Results: Pyrazole derivatives were obtained in high yields. The crystal structure of a new compound 3e was determined. Pyrazole derivative with catechol moiety 3d exhibited excellent radical scavenging ac-tivity, while compound 3b exhibited the best anti-LOX activity. Molecular docking study revealed that there is no direct interaction of any ligand with the active site of LOX-Ib, but pyrazoles 3a-e behave as inhibitors blocking the approach of linoleic acid to the active site. Conclusion: In this research, protocatechuic and vanillic acid pyrazole derivatives have been obtained for the first time. In vitro antioxidative assay suggests that pyrazole derivate of protocatechuic acid is a powerful radical scavenger, while anti-LOX assay indicates a pyrazole derivative with 4-hydroxyphenyl moiety.

The present paper reports on the synthesis of four hydrazones derived from 5-nitro-2-furfural, 5-nitro-2-thiophenal, isoniazid, 2,4- and 3,4-dihydroxy-N′-methylenebenzohydrazide. The acid-base dissociation constants of these compounds were determined in an aqueous solution. The protolytic equilibria-related ability of hydrazones to “sense” anions in dimethyl sulfoxide-containing water of different concentrations is studied using spectrophotometry, NMR spectroscopy, and quantum chemistry methods. The antimicrobial action of the hydrazones was tested and compared with that of the known drug nifuroxazide.

Glycine-N-methyl transferase (GNMT) downregulation results in spontaneous hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Overexpression of GNMT inhibits the proliferation of liver cancer cell lines and prevents carcinogen-induced HCC, suggesting that GNMT induction is a potential approach for anti-HCC therapy. Herein, we used Huh7 GNMT promoter-driven screening to identify a GNMT inducer. Compound K78 was identified and validated for its induction of GNMT and inhibition of Huh7 cell growth. Subsequently, we employed structure-activity relationship analysis and found a potent GNMT inducer, K117. K117 inhibited Huh7 cell growth in vitro and xenograft in vivo. Oral administration of a dosage of K117 at 10 mpk (milligrams per kilogram) can inhibit Huh7 xenograft in a manner equivalent to the effect of sorafenib at a dosage of 25 mpk. A mechanistic study revealed that K117 is an MYC inhibitor. Ectopic expression of MYC using CMV promoter blocked K117-mediated MYC inhibition and GNMT induction. Overall, K117 is a potential lead compound for HCC- and MYC-dependent cancers.

Rivastigmine has been prescribed for the therapy of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) symptoms. This drug is classified in the carbamate derivative group that has dual activity against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE). According to the structure of Rivastigmine and its performance, a new series of 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-carbamothioate compounds I–XI was synthesized using structure-based drug discovery approaches. For this purpose a set of these compounds were designed with computational docking method and their interactions with amino acid residues in the active sites of AChE and BuChE checked out. The structures of synthesized compounds were established by physicochemical and spectroscopic methods. The carbamoyl moiety of Rivastigmine structure was modified to carbamothioate and the effects of 1,3,4-oxadiazole heterocycle as a pharmacophoric nucleus were investigated. The potential of the synthesized compounds I–XI was evaluated against two most known agents of AD (AChE and BuChE) to determine their IC50 values. The results of the docking showed the range of binding affinity for the best poses of ten individual conformers for any compounds (I–XI) was between ?7.81 (VI) and ?6.75 (II) kcal/mol. The results of biological experiments displayed that most synthetic compounds (I–VIII) showed moderate to excellent selective activity range against BuChE (0.51–69.44 μM). In vitro cytotoxicity evaluation of these compounds (I–XI) by MTT assay on human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cell line exhibited no activity against HDF. The compound VI [S-(5-(p-tolyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) ethyl(methyl)carbamothioate] showed the most stable binding affinity (?7.81 kcal/mol) and the lowest IC50 value (0.51 μM) in comparison with Rivastigmine with 7.72 μM and Donepezil with 5.20 μM against BuChE.

A series of benzamide-dioxoisoindoline derivatives 3 was obtained, starting from phthalic anhydride and different benzoyl hydrazides 2, by ultrasound irradiation in water as solvent and without any catalyst. Five obtained compounds have been reported in this study for the first time and crystal structure of compound 3h was determined. All compounds were subjected to experimental determination of their antioxidative potential. DPPH test revealed that newly synthesized phenolic compounds 3d, 3e, and 3j are the best antioxidants. Additionally, probable radical scavenging pathway was analysed for reactions of the most active compounds and some radicals that can be found in living cells.

To streamline the preclinical phase of pharmaceutical development, we have explored the utility of structural data on the molecular target and synergy between computational and medicinal chemistry. We have concentrated on parasitic infectious diseases with a particular emphasis on the development of specific noncovalent inhibitors of proteases that play a key role in the parasites' life cycles. Frequently, the structure of the enzyme target of pharmaceutical interest is not available. In this setting we have modeled the structure of the relevant enzyme by virtue of its sequence similarity with proteins of known structure. For example, we have constructed a homology-based model of falcipain, the trophozoite cysteine protease, and used the computational ligand identification algorithm DOCK to identify in compound enzyme inhibitors including oxalic bis(2-hydroxy-1-naphthylmethylene)hydrazide (1) [Ring, C.S.; Sun, E.; McKerow, J.K.; Lee, G.; Rosenthal, P.J., Kuntz, I.D.; Cohen, F.E., Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 1993, 90, 3583]. Compound 1 inhibits falcipain (IC50 6 μM) and the organism in vitro as judged by hypoxanthine. uptake (IC50 7 μM). Following this lead, to date, we have identified potent bis arylacylhydrazides (IC50 150 nM) and chalcones (IC50 200 nM) that are active against both chloroquine-sensitive and chloroquine-resistant strains of malaria. In a second example, cruzain, the crystallographically determined structure of a papain-like cysteine protease, resolved to 2.35 A, was available. Aided by DOCK, we have identified a family of bis-arylacylhydrazides that are potent inhibitors of cruzain (IC50 600 μM). These compounds represent useful leads for pharmaceutical development over strict enzyme inhibition criteria in a structure-based design program.
