Herein, we present a novel one-pot aqueous reaction for the synthesis of 2-iminothiazolines and 2-aminothiazoles using isocyanides, amines, sulfur, and 2′-bromoacetophenones. The three-component preparation of thioureas is followed by the one-pot cyclization leading to the heterocyclic product. This efficient and mild procedure features excellent step- and atom-economy and enables the chromatography-free preparation of diversely substituted 2-iminothiazoline and 2-aminothiazole derivatives.

A one-pot three-component sequential synthetic protocol produces structurally and biologically important phthalidyl fused spiro N,N′-disubstituted thiohydantoins from readily available aromatic isothiocyanates, primary amines and ninhydrin. In this three-step synthesis while the initial two steps are catalyst-free, in the final step silica sulfuric acid (SSA) induces an oxidative rearrangement in [3.3.0]-bicyclic 1,2-diol adducts of ninhydrin and thioureas under solvent-free condition to generate the final products spiro-fused thiohydantoins. The adequate acidity of SSA in cooperation with moderate oxidizing property promotes a facile oxidative rearrangement in 1,2-diol intermediates to produce the spiro-fused thiohydantoins with diverse functionalities. Easy recyclability of SSA, good to excellent yield of the products, wider substrate scope, shorter reaction time, solvent-free two steps out of three and high atom economy make this method attractive and practicable.

Computer-aided drug design has advanced by leaps and bounds, and has been widely used in various fields, and especially in the field of drug discovery. Although the crystal structure of the gibberellin (GA) receptor GID1A had been reported in previous studies, there is still a lack of designs of gibberellin functional analogue based GID1A. In the present study, a series of 30 thiourea derivatives were designed, synthesized and biologically assayed. The results suggested that the synthetic compounds had good GA-like activities. Furthermore, the structure-activity relationship of the synthetic compounds was discussed, and the dynamic simulation and docking study revealed the binding properties of the GID1A receptor and compounds Y1, Y11, and Y21.

The reaction of isocyanides with aliphatic amines in the presence of elemental sulfur was found to proceed efficiently at, or near, room temperature to produce thioureas in excellent yields and with complete atom economy.

We have conducted systematic structural modification, deconstruction, and reconstruction of the berberine core with the aim of lowering its cytotoxicity, investigating its pharmacophore, and ultimately, seeking novel synergistic agents to restore the effectiveness of fluconazole against fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans. A structure-activity relationship study of 95 analogues led us to identify the novel scaffold of N-(2-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)ethyl)-2- (substituted phenyl)acetamides 7 a-l, which exhibited remarkable levels of in vitro synergistic antifungal activity. Compound 7 d (N-(2-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol- 5-yl)ethyl)-2-(2-fluorophenyl)acetamide) significantly decreased the MIC 80 values of fluconazole from 128.0 μg mL-1 to 0.5 μg mL-1 against fluconazole-resistant C. albicans and exhibited much lower levels of cytotoxicity than berberine toward human umbilical vein endothelial cells.

Structural requirement of phenylthiourea analogs for their inhibitory activity of melanogenesis and tyrosinase

Effect of a series of 1-phenylthioureas 1a-k and 1,3-disubstituted thioureas 2a-k were evaluated against melanin formation in melanoma B16 cell line and mushroom tyrosinase. Inhibitory activity of tyrosinase of 1-phenylthioureas 1a-k is parallel to their melanogenic inhibition. Thus, the melanogenic inhibition in melanoma B16 cells of 1-phenylthioureas could be the result of inhibition of tyrosinase. However, 1,3-diaryl or 1-phenyl-3- alkylthioureas, 2a-k, appears as melanogenic inhibitor without inhibition of tyrosinase. The molecular docking study of 1e and 2b to binding pocket of tyrosinase provided convincing explanation regarding the necessity of direct connection of planar phenyl to thiourea unit without N′-substitution of phenylthioureas 1 as tyrosinase inhibitor and 2 as non-tyrosinase inhibitor.

Ten cytoselective compounds have been identified from 372 thiazolidinone analogues by applying iterative library approaches. These compounds selectively killed both non-small cell lung cancer cell line H460 and its paclitaxel-resistant variant H460taxR at an IC50 between 0.21 and 2.93 μM while showing much less toxicity to normal human fibroblasts at concentrations up to 195 μM. Structure-activity relationship studies revealed that (1) the nitrogen atom on the 4-thiazolidinone ring (ring B in Figure 1) cannot be substituted, (2) several substitutions on ring A are tolerated at various positions, and (3) the substitution on ring C is restricted to the -NMe2 group at the 4-position. A pharmacophore derived from active molecules suggested that two hydrogen bond acceptors and three hydrophobic regions were common features. Activities against P-gp-overexpressing and paclitaxel-resistant cell line H460taxR and modeling using a previously validated P-gp substrate pharmacophore suggested that active compounds were not likely P-gp substrates.

Ureylene anticonvulsants and related compounds
Dimmock,Vashishtha,Stables
, p. 490 - 494 (2007/10/03)
The results from a previous study led to the postulate that a number of aryl semicarbazones displaying anticonvulsant activity in the maximal electroshock (MES) screen interacted at both a hydrophobic and a hydrogen bonding areas on a specific binding site. These two parts of the binding site may be referred to as areas A and B, respectively. In order to circumvent the possible problems of the carbimino group in semicarbazones, such as toxicity and acid lability, some related ureylenes were considered. Initial evidence suggested that a second lipophilic group in the molecule was advantageous; this group may interact at area C on the proposed binding site. Most of the compounds prepared with a view to interacting at areas A, B and C showed protection in mice against MES induced siezures. Of particular interest were the compounds 1d, j which contained an α-methylbenzyl group attached to the N1 atom of the ureylenes which afforded good protection in the MES screen. The areas A and C at which lipophilic moieties were considered to interact were capable of accommodating groups of different sizes as measured by their solvent accessible surface areas. A number of compounds were active when given orally to rats and devoid of neurotoxicity at the doses utilized. Several compounds including 1d, f, j, 2d are useful prototypic molecules for subsequent development of further novel anticonvulsants.

Isatoic anhydride (1) can be attached to Merrifield resin by alkylation on its nitrogen. A maximum loading of 3.2 mmol of anhydride/g of 5 was achieved. This resin, due to the highly reactive anhydride moiety, completely removes primary and secondary aliphatic amines from reactions where they are used in excess.
