A series of 1,2,3-triazolyl 3-hydroxy-quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones was constructed utilizing Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC) method. The biological significance of the novel synthesized quinazolines was highlighted by evaluating them in vitro for antiviral activity, wherein several compounds exhibited excellent activity specifically against vaccinia and adenovirus. Especially, 24b11 displayed the most potent inhibitory activity against vaccinia with an EC50value of 1.7 μM, which was 15 fold than that of the reference drug Cidofovir (EC50= 25 μM). 24b13 was the most potent compound against adenovirus-2 with an EC50value of 6.2 μM, which proved lower than all the reference drugs. Preliminary structure–activity relationships were also discussed. To the best of our knowledge, no data are present in the literature on antiviral activity of 3-hydroxy-quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones against DNA-viruses. Thus, these findings warrant further investigations (library expansion and compound refinement) on this novel class of antiviral agents.

Nicotinic acid, also known as niacin, is a natural product, which is widely found in plants and animals. To discover novel natural-product-based herbicides, a series of N-(arylmethoxy)-2-chloronicotinamides were designed and synthesized. Some of the new N-(arylmethoxy)-2-chloronicotinamides exhibited excellent herbicidal activity against Agrostis stolonifera (bentgrass) at 100 μM. Compound 5f (2-chloro-N-((3,4-dichlorobenzyl)oxy)nicotinamide) possessed excellent herbicidal activity against Lemna paucicostata (duckweed), with an IC50 value of 7.8 μM, whereas the commercial herbicides clomazone and propanil had values of 125 and 2 μM, respectively. The structure-activity relationships reported in this paper could be used for the development of new herbicides against monocotyledonous weeds.

Infections caused due to multidrug resistant organisms have emerged as a constant menace to human health. Even though numerous antibiotics are currently available for treating infectious diseases, a great number of bacterial strains have acquired resistance to many of them. Among these, infections caused due to Staphylococcus aureus are predominant in adult and paediatric population. Indole is a prominent chemical scaffold found in many pharmacologically active natural products and synthetic drugs. A number of oxime ether containing compounds have attracted attention of researchers owing to their interesting biological properties. Current work details the synthesis of indole containing oxime ether derivatives and their evaluation for antimicrobial activity against a panel of bacterial and mycobacterial strains. Synthesized compounds demonstrated good to moderate activity against drug-resistant S. aureus including resistant to vancomycin. Among all, compound 5h was found to possess potent activity against susceptible as well as MRSA and VRSA strains of S. aureus with MIC of 1 μg/mL and 2–4 μg/mL respectively. In addition, compound 5h was found to be non-toxic to Vero cells and exhibited good selectivity index of >40. Further, 5h, E-9a and E-9b possessed good biofilm inhibition against S. aureus. With these assuring biological properties, synthesized compounds could be potential prospective antimicrobial agents.

Isocyanates are the key intermediates for several organic transformations towards the synthesis of diverse pharmaceutical targets. Herein, we report the development of an oxidant-free protocol for electrochemical in situ generation of isocyanates. This strategy highlights expedient access to benzimidazolones and quinazolinones and eliminates the need for exogenous oxidants. Furthermore, detailed mechanistic studies provide strong support towards our hypothesis of in situ isocyanate generation. This journal is
