Design, synthesis, in-silico and biological evaluation of novel donepezil derivatives as multi-target-directed ligands for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease

A novel series of donepezil based multi-functional agents “(E)-5,6-dimethoxy-2-(4-(4-substituted piperazin-1-yl)benzylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ones” have been designed and synthesized as potential anti-Alzheimer's agents. In-vitro studies revealed th

Design, synthesis, and bioactivity investigation of novel benzimidazole derivatives as potent urease inhibitors

Herein, we synthesized a series of novel benzimidazole derivatives 5a–k and screened their bioactivity as potent urease inhibitors. The structure of the 5a–k was elucidated using spectroscopic technics (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, MS), elementa

Novel benzimidazole-acrylonitrile hybrids and their derivatives: Design, synthesis and antimycobacterial activity

This paper reports the synthesis and evaluation of some benzimidazole-acrylonitrile hybrid derivatives for their in vitro antimycobacterial activities against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Among the derivatives studied, 3b was found to be the most active compound with MIC of 0.78 μg/mL against M. tuberculosis. This is a quite good activity compared with ethambutol (MIC = 1.56 μg/mL). Moreover, 3b showed 2.8 log fold reduction in bacterial count of dormant forms of mycobacterium which is more potent than first line drugs isoniazid, ciprofloxacin, rifampicin and moxifloxacin. Having activities against both active and dormant forms of M. tuberculosis, 3b may be a useful candidate for the development of new drugs to treat tuberculosis.

Design and Synthesis of some new 2,4,6-trisubstituted quinazoline EGFR inhibitors as targeted anticancer agents

The present study describes the synthesis of 6-bromo-2-(pyridin-3-yl)-4-substituted quinazolines starting from 4-chloro derivative VI via the reaction with either phenolic compounds to obtain VIIa-f, IXa-d, 2-amino-6-(un)substituted benzothiazole to produce VIIIa-c or hydrazine hydrate to give X. Reaction of the hydrazino functionality of X with appropriate acid anhydride, acid chloride or aldehyde affords XIa-c, XIIa-c and XIVa-i, respectively. The target compounds were screened for their efficacy as EGFR inhibitors compared to gefitinib. Compounds eliciting superior EGFR inhibitory activity were further screened for their in vitro cytotoxicity against two human cancer cell lines namely: MCF7 (breast) and A549 (lung), in addition to normal fibroblast cell WI38 relative to gefitinib as a reference. Furthermore, compounds that showed potent inhibitory activity on wild-type EGFR were screened against mutant EGFR and assayed for their cytotoxicity against mutant EGFR-expressing cell lines PC9 and HCC827. The unsubstituted benzothiazol-2-amine VIIa showing superior EGFR inhibition (IC50 = 0.096 μM) and anticancer activity against MCF-7 cell line (IC50 = 2.49 μM) was subjected to cell cycle analysis and apoptotic assay. Moreover, a molecular docking study was performed to investigate the interaction of some representive compounds with the active site of EGFR- TK.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of new thiosemicarbazone derivative schiff bases as monoamine oxidase inhibitory agents

Twenty-six novel thiosemicarbazone derivative B1–B26 were synthesized via condensation reactions between the corresponding thiosemicarbazides and aldehydes. The chemical characterization of the compounds was carried out by infrared (IR), mass (MS), proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (1H- and 13C-NMR) spectroscopic analyses. The compounds were investigated for their monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitory activity and most of them were more potent against MAO-A enzyme when compared with MAO-B enzyme. N-Cyclohexyl-2-[4-[(4-chlorophenyl)thio]benzylidene]hydrazine-1-carbothioamide (B24) was the most active compound against MAO-A. The enzyme kinetics study revealed that compound B24 has a reversible and competitive mode of binding. Interaction modes between compound B24 and MAO-A were clarified by docking studies. In addition, the favourable absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties and non-toxic nature of compound B24 make this compound a promising MAO-A inhibitor.

Discovery of potent anti-convulsant carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: Design, synthesis, in vitro and in vivo appraisal

We report the design, synthesis and pharmacological assessment of novel benzenesulfonamide derivatives acting as effective carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitors. All the synthesized compounds were screened for their CA inhibitory action against four isoforms of human origin (h), i.e. hCA I, hCA II, hCA VII and hCA IX. In-vitro carbonic anhydrase inhibition studies have shown that first series, 4-(2-(4-(4-substitutedpiperazin-1-yl)benzylidene)hydrazinyl)benzenesulfonamides (4a- 4i) bestowed low nanomolar range to medium nanomolar range inhibitors against hCA II and hCA VII, effectively involved in epileptogenesis. Furthermore, compounds belonging to the second series, 4-(2-(4-(4-substitutedpiperazin-yl)benzylidene)hydrazinecarbonyl)benzenesulfonamides (8a-8k) showed effective inhibition against hCA VII, being less effective against other hCA isoforms. Inspiring with obtained CA inhibition results, we have chosen some of the potent hCA II and hCA VII inhibitors (4g, 4i and 8d) to test their anti-convulsant efficacy in MES and sc-PTZ seizure tests in Swiss Albino male mice. In result, these compounds significantly attenuated both electrical (MES) as well as chemical (sc-PTZ) induced seizures. Next, in advance anticonvulsant tests, compound 8d displayed long duration of action in time course study and successfully attenuated MES induced seizure in mice up to 6 h after drug administration without showing neurotoxicity in rotarod test. Moreover, this compound was also found to be orally active and effectively abolished generalized tonic-clonic seizures in male Wistar rats upon oral administration, being non-toxic in sub acute toxicity studies.

Design, synthesis and evaluation of novel indandione derivatives as multifunctional agents with cholinesterase inhibition, anti-β-amyloid aggregation, antioxidant and neuroprotection properties against Alzheimer's disease

A series of novel 2-(4-(4-substituted piperazin-1-yl)benzylidene)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-diones were designed, synthesized and appraised as multifunctional anti-Alzheimer agents. In vitro studies of compounds 27–38 showed that these compounds exhibit moderate

Synthesis of new donepezil analogues and investigation of their effects on cholinesterase enzymes

Donepezil (DNP), an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, is one of the most preferred choices in Alzheimer diseases (AD) therapy. In the present study, 38 new DNP analogues were synthesized. Structures of the synthesized compounds (1–38) were elucidated by IR,1H NMR,13C NMR and HRMS spectroscopic methods and elemental analysis. Inhibitory potential of the compounds on cholinesterase enzymes was investigated. None of the compounds displayed significant activity on butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) enzyme. On the other hand, compounds 26–29 indicated important inhibitory activity on AChE enzyme. Kinetic studies were performed in order to observe the effects of the most active compounds on substrate-enzyme relationship. Cytotoxicity studies and theoretical calculation of pharmacokinetic properties were also carried out to get an information about toxicity and pharmacokinetic profiles of the compounds. The compounds 26–29 were found to be nontoxic at their effective concentrations against AChE. A good pharmacokinetic profile was predicted for these compounds. Docking studies were performed for the most active compounds 26–29 and interaction modes with enzyme active sites were determined. Docking studies revealed that there is a strong interaction between the active sites of AChE enzyme and analyzed compounds.
