Design, synthesis, and biological activity of novel semicarbazones as potent Ryanodine receptor1 inhibitors of Alzheimer's disease

Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are important ligand-gated Ca2+ channels; their excessive activation leads to Ca2+ leakage in the sarcoplasmic reticulum that may cause neurological diseases. In this study, three series of novel potent RyR1 inhibitors based on dantrolene and bearing semicarbazone and imidazolyl moieties were designed and synthesized, and their biological activity was evaluated. Using a single-cell calcium imaging method, the calcium overload inhibitory activities of 26 target compounds were tested in the R614C cell line, using dantrolene as a positive control. The preliminary investigation showed that compound 12a suppressed Ca2+ release as evidenced by store overload-induced Ca2+release (SOICR) (31.5 ± 0.1%, 77.2 ± 0.1%, 93.7 ± 0.2%) at 0.1 μM, 3 μM and 10 μM, respectively. Docking simulation results showed that compound 12a could bind at the active site of the RyR1 protein. The Morris water-maze test showed that compound 12a significantly improved the cognitive behavior of AD-model mice. Further studies on the structural optimization of this series of derivatives are currently underway in our laboratory.

Design, Synthesis and Antifungal Activity of Benzofuran and Its Analogues

Benzofuran has antifungal activity as the inhibitor of N-myristoyltransferase. Twenty-nine novel benzofuran-semicarbazide hybrids were designed and synthesized by principle of drug combinationatory. On this basis, the benzofuran ring was simplified to a resorcinol structure, and sixteen novel 1,3-dialkoxybenzene-semicarbazide hybrids were designed and synthesized. All structures of the target compounds were characterized by HRMS and NMR. The in vitro antifungal activity of target compounds was evaluated using the microdilution broth method against eight strains of pathogenic fungi with fluconazole as positive control. According to the results of the target compounds, structure-activity relationship (SAR) is summarized. The inhibitory activity against the tested strains of simplified compounds (K01—K16) has different levels improvement compared with compounds Z01—Z29. K01—K16 showed significant antifungal activities against A. fumigatus, C. kruseii, and sensitive C. albicans 5314. Notably, compounds Z20, Z22, K10, K11 and K16 also displayed different activities against two fluconazole-resistance strains that were isolated from AIDS patients. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values against fluconazole-resistant strains were in the range of 2—8 μg/mL and 4—32μg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, molecular docking was performed to investigate the binding affinities and interaction modes between the target compound and N-myristoyltransferase.

Design and synthesis of novel N-(4-(Pyridin-2-yloxy)benzylidene)-4-[4-(substituted)phenyl]semicarbazides as potential anticonvulsant agents

A new series of N-(4-(pyridin-2-yloxy)benzylidene)-4-[4-(substituted)phenyl]semicarbazides (PSSD1-8) were designed and synthesized keeping in view the structural requirement of pharmacophore and evaluated for their possible anticonvulsant activity. All the derivatives were synthesized by the given scheme and reaction process was monitored by thin layer chromatography. The structure of synthesized derivatives was confirmed by FT-IR, 1H NMR, mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The anticonvulsant activity was established after intraperitoneal administration in MES and scMET seizure models. The most active compound of the series was 1-(4-(pyridin-2-yloxy)-benzylidene)-4-p-tolylsemicarbazide (PSSD5). A molecular docking study was carried out in order to assess the interaction and binding modes with target receptor/enzyme. Titled compounds were found to strongly bind to human gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor (GABAAR-β3). A computational study was also carried to predict the pharmacokinetic properties of the synthesized compounds.

Highly Regioselective Carbamoylation of Electron-Deficient Nitrogen Heteroarenes with Hydrazinecarboxamides

The use of hydrazinecarboxamides as a new class of carbamoylating agents has been established through the dehydrazinative Minisci reaction of electron-deficient nitrogen heteroarenes. A wide range of electron-deficient nitrogen heteroarenes, including isoquinoline, quinoline, pyridine, phenanthridine, quinoxaline, and phthalazine, underwent copper/acid-catalyzed oxidative carbamoylation with hydrazinecarboxamide hydrochlorides to afford structurally diverse nitrogen-heteroaryl carboxamides as single regioisomers in moderate to excellent yields. The functional group tolerance was substantially demonstrated in the direct carbamoylation of quinine obviating multistep sequences involving protecting groups and prefunctionalization of the heterocycle.

Design, synthesis and anticancer activity of dihydropyrimidinone-semicarbazone hybrids as potential human DNA ligase 1 inhibitors

A series of new dihydropyrimidinone-semicarbazone hybrids were successfully synthesised by integrating regioselective multicomponent reaction with the pharmacophore hybridization approach. All the synthesised compounds were evaluated for their hLig1 inhibition potency and most of them were found to be good to moderately active. Out of the tested derivatives, compound 6f showed selective anti-proliferative activity against HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 value of 10.07 ± 1.2. It also reduced cell survival at ≤20 μM concentration. Further, analysis of treated HepG2 cell lysates by western blot assay showed increased γ-H2AX levels and upregulation of p53, leading to apoptosis. In silico docking results explain the binding modes of compound 6f to the DNA-binding domain of hLig1 enzyme thereby preventing its nick sealing activity. In addition, the favourable pharmacokinetic properties suggest that this new class of hLig1 inhibitors could be promising leads for further drug development.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 4-phenoxy-6,7-disubstituted quinolines possessing (thio)semicarbazones as c-Met kinase inhibitors

In continuing our efforts to identify small molecules able to inhibit c-Met kinase, three series of novel 6,7-disubstituted-4-phenoxyquinoline derivatives (23a-w, 26a-d and 30a-d) bearing (thio)semicarbazone scaffold were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxicity. The biological data revealed that most compounds exhibited moderate-to-excellent activity against HT-29, MKN-45, A549 cancer cell lines and relative poor potency toward MDA-MB-231 cell as well as hardly any cytotoxicity in normal PBL cell. Eleven compounds were further examined for their inhibitory activity against c-Met kinase and three compounds (23h, 23n and 26a) demonstrated good inhibitory activity. This work resulted in the discovery of a potent c-Met inhibitor 23n, bearing 2-hydroxy-3-allylphenyl group at R2 moiety, as a valuable lead molecule, which possessed remarkable cytotoxicity and high selectivity against A549 and HT-29 cell lines with IC50 values of 11 nM and 27 nM. Besides, it displayed excellent c-Met kinase inhibition on a single-digital nanomolar level (IC50 = 1.54 nM). Meanwhile, the results from preliminarily in vivo study reflected that compound 23n showed promising overall PK profiles, consistent with the efficacy in both MKN-45 and HT-29 tumor xenograft mice model. These results clearly indicated that compound 23n is a potent and highly selective c-Met inhibitor and its favorable in vitro and in vivo profiles warrant further investigation.

Isatin N-phenylsemicarbazone: Effect of substituents and concentration on anion sensing selectivity and sensitivity

The effect of substituent and concentration on anion sensing selectivity and sensitivity of nine new easily synthesized isatin N-phenylsemicarbazone E-isomer sensors IIIa-XIa was investigated. The substantial difference between the association constants for IIIa-XIa interaction with strongly and weakly basic anions allows detection of F- or CH3COO- anions even at high weakly basic anion excess. Substitution in position 5- of the isatin ring and para-substitution on the phenyl ring in the phenylsemicarbazide chain influence sensor:anion complex stoichiometry and thus also sensor sensitivity. Detection limits of 3-4 × 10-7 mol dm-3 for F- and CH3COO- anions by sensors IVa and Va bearing electron-withdrawing substituents are among the lowest published detection limits for these anions in organic solvents. The high selectivity and sensitivity of sensor VIa allows confident F- detection at tolerated fluoride drinking-water level. The solution dilution leads to a dramatic change in sensor selectivity. Consequently, one E-isomer can be used to sense both strongly and weakly basic anions. On the other side, higher sensor solution concentrations increase the F- and CH3COO- anion detection range, similar to the additional Z-isomer utilization. This journal is

3-(7-Dimethylamino)coumarin N-phenylsemicarbazones in solution and polymer matrices: Tuning their fluorescence via para-phenyl substitution

The photo-physical properties of five new para-phenyl substituted derivatives of 3-(7-dimethylamino)coumarin N-phenylsemicarbazone with various electron-withdrawing substituents R (RF, Br, CF3, CN or NO 2) in the para-position on the phenyl ring were investigated in solvents and in polymer matrices. Tuning their fluorescent properties via para-substitution is discussed in terms of Twisted Intra-molecular Charge-Transfer (TICT) state formation, specific solute-solvent interactions (hydrogen bonding), fluorescent H-aggregates formation, and the solvent polarity and polymer matrix effects.
