Twenty one chalcone derivatives were synthesized using Claisen-Schmidt condensation, their antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum was determined and quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) was developed. Condensation of substituted acetophenones with various aromatic aldehydes at room temperature gave chalcones in 75–96% yield. Chalcones are secondary metabolites of terrestrial plants, precursors for the biosynthesis of flavonoids and exhibit various biological activities. Antiplasmodial IC50 (half-maximal inhibitory concentration) activity of a compound against malaria parasites in?vitro provides a good first screen for identifying the antimalarial potential of the compound. The most active compound was Trans-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-1-(2’-hydroxyphenyl)-2-propen-1-one(1b) with IC50 of 2.1 μM/L. Molecular mechanism was explored through in silico docking & ADMET studies for the active compounds.

A clean and effective method has been developed for the regioselective of O-allylation of phenol derivatives using a recyclable Cu(I)-exchanged multi-size porous material. Ease of preparation of catalyst through simple solid-state exchange and its compatibility in producing excellent amount of O-allylated products and a plausible mechanistic pathway for the regioselectivity are highlighted. This reported procedure is not requiring any external stabilizing ligand for Cu(I) species and further purification of products.

Tyrosinase plays important roles in many different disease related processes, and the development of its inhibitors is particularly important in biotechnology. In this study, thirty-nine 3-/4-alkoxyphenylethyli-denethiosemicarbazides were synthesized as novel tyrosinase inhibitors based on structure-based molecular design. Our experimental results demonstrated that thirty-one of them possess remarkable tyrosinase inhibitory activities with IC50 value below 1μM, and 5a, 6e, 6g and 6t did not display any toxicity to 293T cell line at the concentration of 1000μmol/L. According to the inhibitory activities, several compounds were selected for detail investigation on the structure–activity relationships (SARs), mechanisms of enzyme inhibition, inhibitory kinetics and cytotoxicity. In particular, the interaction between the selected inhibitors and the active center of tyrosinase was considered and discussed in detail based on their structural characteristics. Taken together, the results presented here demonstrated that the newly designed compounds are promising candidates for the treatment of tyrosinase-related disorders and further development of them may have significant contribution in biomedical science.
Design, synthesis, docking studies and monoamine oxidase inhibition of a small library of 1-acetyl- and 1-thiocarbamoyl-3,5-diphenyl-4,5-dihydro-(1h)-pyrazoles

New N-acetyl/N-thiocarbamoylpyrazoline derivatives were designed and synthesized in high yields to assess their inhibitory activity and selectivity against human monoamine oxidase A and B. The most important chiral compounds were separated into their single enantiomers and tested. The impact of the substituents at N1, C3 and C5 positions as well the influence of the configuration of the C5 on the biological activity were analyzed. Bulky aromatic groups at C5 were not tolerated. p-Prenyloxyaryl moiety at C3 oriented the selectivity toward the B isoform. The results were also corroborated by molecular modelling studies providing new suggestions for the synthesis of privileged structures to serve as lead compounds for the treatment of mood disorders and neurodegenerative diseases.
A molybdenum based metallomicellar catalyst for controlled and chemoselective oxidation of activated alcohols in aqueous medium

, p. 123 - 133 (2019/07/19)
A surfactant based oxodiperoxo molybdenum complex, which could activate molecular oxygen, has been employed as a catalyst for controlled oxidation of benzylic alcohols to corresponding carbonyls. The oxidation reactions were carried out under aqueous environment, however, in the absence of any extraneous base or co-catalyst. Sensitive/oxidizable functional groups like cyano, sulfide, hydroxyl, aryl-hydroxyl, alkene (internal/terminal), alkyne (internal/terminal), and acetal were tolerated during the transformations. Such selectivity is attributed to the mild nature of the catalyst. The methodology could also be scaled-up for multi-gram synthesis and the protocol is likely to find practical use since it requires an inexpensive recyclable-catalyst and easily available oxidant (under green conditions). A plausible mechanism is proposed with the help of preliminary computational study.

The inherent affinity of natural compounds for biological receptors has been comprehensively exploited with great success for the development of many drugs, including antimalarials. Here the natural flavoring compound vanillin has been used as an economical precursor for the synthesis of a series of novel bischalcones whose in vitro antiplasmodial activities have been evaluated against erythrocytic stages of Plasmodium falciparum. Bischalcones 9, 11 and 13 showed promising antiplasmodial activity {Chloroquine (CQ) sensitive Pf3D7 IC50 (μM): 2.0, 1.5 and 2.5 respectively}but only 13 displayed potent activities also against CQ resistant PfDd2 and PfIndo strains exhibiting resistance indices of 1.4 and 1.5 respectively. IC90 (8 μM) of 13 showed killing activity against ring, trophozoite and schizont stages. Further, 13 initiated the cascade of reactions that culminates in programmed cell death of parasites including translocation of phosphatidylserine from inner to outer membrane leaflet, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, activation of caspase like enzyme, DNA fragmentation and chromatin condensation. The combinations of 13 + Artemisinin (ART) exhibited strong synergy (ΣFIC50:0.46 to 0.58) while 13 + CQ exhibited mild synergy (ΣFIC50: 0.7 to 0.98) to mild antagonism (ΣFIC50: 1.08 to 1.23) against PfIndo. In contrast, both combinations showed marked antagonism against Pf3D7(ΣFIC50: 1.33 to 3.34). These features of apoptosis and strong synergy with Artemisinin suggest that bischalcones possess promising antimalarial drug-like properties and may also act as a good partner drugs for artemisinin based combination therapies (ACTs) against Chloroquine resistant P. falciparum.
