Synthesis, characterization, antimicrobial, antioxidant and computational evaluation of N-acyl-morpholine-4-carbothioamides

Abstract: The present research paper reports the convenient synthesis, successful characterization, in vitro antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant potency and biocompatibility of N-acyl-morpholine-4-carbothioamides (5a–5j). The biocompatible derivatives were found to be highly active against the tested bacterial and fungal strains. Moreover, some of the screened N-acyl-morpholine-4-carbothioamides exhibited excellent antioxidant potential. Docking simulation provided additional information about possibilities of their inhibitory potential against RNA. It has been predicted by in silico investigation of the binding pattern that compounds 5a and 5j can serve as the potential surrogate for design of novel and potent antibacterial agents. The results for the in vitro bioassays were promising with the identification of compounds 5a and 5j as the lead and selective candidate for RNA inhibition. Results of the docking computations further ascertained the inhibitory potential of compound 5a. Based on the in silico studies, it can be suggested that compounds 5a and 5j can serve as a structural model for the design of antibacterial agents with better inhibitory potential. Graphic abstract: Binding mode of compound 5j inside the active site of RNA in 3D space. 5j displayed highest antibacterial potential than the reference drug ampicillin with ZOI 10.50?mm against Staphylococcus aureus. 5j also displayed highest antifungal potential than the reference drug amphotericin B with ZOI 18.20?mm against Fusarium solani.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

Synthesis and antitumor activity of novel N-benzoyl-N'-substituted pyrimidinyl (thio)semicarbazide derivatives

A series of substituted pyrimidinyl (thio)semicarbazide derivatives were designed and synthesized. The antitumor results showed that the activity of thiosemicarbazide compounds (series II) was generally higher than that of the corresponding semicarbazide derivatives (series I). Among them, IIk displayed higher cytotoxicity against HL-60, BGC-823 and Bel-7402 than that of adriamycin and exhibited broad in vitro cytotoxicity against 13 human tumor cell lines. Meanwhile, the cytotoxic selectivity and anti-multidrug resistance were evaluated, and IIk exhibited selective cytotoxicity against cancer cells in comparison to human normal cells and had significant anti-multidrug resistance capability. The bioassay results showed that IIk showed great promise as a potent lead compound for further antitumor discovery.
