Based on bioisosteric similarities with isoniazid, a series of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carbonitrile derivatives has been designed. The target compounds have been synthesized by multicomponent reaction which involves one-pot organic reactions using ethylcyanoacetate, urea/thiourea and arylaldehydes in presence of ethanolic K2CO3. Two methodologies, conventional and microwave-assisted, have been adopted for the synthesis. The later strategy gave high yields in less than 10 min as compared to long hours using the former approach. Molecular docking of the target compounds into the enzyme Mycobacterium tuberculosis enoyl reductase (InhA) revealed important structural information on the plausible binding interactions. Major binding interactions were found to be of dispersion type (residues Tyr158, Ile215, Met103 and Met199) and a hydrogen bond with Tyr158. Binding poses of the all the compounds were energetically favorable and showed good interactions with the active site residues. Few selected compounds were also evaluated for antitubercular activity in vitro against drug-sensitive M. tuberculosis H37Rv strain and clinically isolated S, H, R and E resistant M. tuberculosis by luciferase reporter phage (LRP) assay method. Some compounds displayed promising antimycobacterial activity comparable or less than the standard drugs isoniazid and rifampicin.

Swapping the substituents in positions 2 and 4 of the previously synthesized but yet undisclosed 5-cyano-4-(methylthio)-2-arylpyrimidin-6-ones 4, ring closure, and further optimization led to the identification of the potent antitubercular 2-thio-substituted quinazolinone 26. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies indicated a crucial role for both meta-nitro substituents for antitubercular activity, while the introduction of polar substituents on the quinazolinone core allowed reduction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) binding (63c, 63d). While most of the tested quinazolinones exhibited no cytotoxicity against MRC-5, the most potent compound 26 was found to be mutagenic via the Ames test. This analogue exhibited moderate inhibitory potency against Mycobacterium tuberculosis thymidylate kinase, the target of the 3-cyanopyridones that lies at the basis of the current analogues, indicating that the whole-cell antimycobacterial activity of the present S-substituted thioquinazolinones is likely due to modulation of alternative or additional targets. Diminished antimycobacterial activity was observed against mutants affected in cofactor F420 biosynthesis (fbiC), cofactor reduction (fgd), or deazaflavin-dependent nitroreductase activity (rv3547), indicating that reductive activation of the 3,5-dinitrobenzyl analogues is key to antimycobacterial activity.

Starting from 6-aryl-4-oxo-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5- carbonitrile (4a-d), a series of mono- and dialkyl derivatives 5a-j and 6a, b was synthesized. Hydrazinolysis of 4a, b, d and 5d afforded the hydrazino derivatives 7a-c which were cyclised to give the triazolopyrimidinones 8a-c and the pyrimidotriazinones 9a-c through the reaction with formic acid and chloroacetyl chloride, respectively. Most of the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in-vitro antitumor activity. Compounds 6a and b displayed promising anticancer activity against leukaemia, non-small cell lung, melanoma, and renal cancer. On the other hand, all compounds prepared were screened for their in-vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities. Compounds 5h and j showed significant activity against Staphylococcus aureus, while compounds 5e, 7c and 8c displayed moderate inhibitory activity against Candida albicans.
