In the molecules of the title compound, C14H11N3O3S, there is an intramolecular N-H...O hydrogen bond [2.635 (3) A] between the amide N and benzoyl O atoms which completes a nearly planar six-membered ring in the central part of the molecule. The benzene rings of the benzoyl and nitrophenyl moieties form angles of 30.5 (4) and 35.7 (4)°, respectively, with the plane of this hydrogen-bonded ring. In the crystal, molecules are connected into infinite zigzag chains by N-H...O bonds and these chains are linked across centres of symmetry by weak N-H...S interactions, thus forming a two-dimensional network. Van der Waals interactions between layers lead to a crystal structure with one very short axis (4 A).

Background: New drugs and strategies to treat tuberculosis (TB) are urgently needed. In this context, thiourea derivatives have a wide range of biological activities, including anti-TB. This fact can be illustrated with the structure of isoxyl, an old anti-TB drug, which has a thiourea as a pharmacophore group. Objective: The aim of this study is to describe the synthesis and the antimycobacterial activity of fifty-nine benzoylthioureas derivatives. Methods: Benzoylthiourea derivatives have been synthesized and evaluated for their activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis using the MABA assay. After that, a structure-activity relationship study of this series of compounds has been performed. Results and Discussion: Nineteen compounds exhibited antimycobacterial activity between 423.1 and 9.6 μM. In general, we observed that the presence of bromine, chlorine and t-Bu group at the para-position in benzene ring plays an important role in the antitubercular activity of Series A. These substituents were fixed at this position in benzene ring and other groups such as Cl, Br, NO2 and OMe were introduced in the benzoyl ring, leading to the derivatives of Series B. In general, Series B was less cytotoxic than Series A, which indicates that the presence of a substituent at benzoyl ring contributes to an improvement in both antimycobacterial activity and toxicity profiles. Conclusion: Compound 4c could be considered a good prototype to be submitted to further structural modifications in the search for new anti-TB drugs, since it is 1.8 times more active than the first line anti-TB drug ethambutol and 0.65 times less active than isoxyl.

By using a new Fragment-Based Virtual Screen strategy, two series of novel FBA-II inhibitors (thiourea derivatives) were de novo discovered based on the active site of fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate aldolase from Cyanobacterial (CyFBA). In comparison, most of the N-(2-benzoylhydrazine-1-carbonothioyl) benzamide derivatives (L14～L22) exhibit higher CyFBA-II inhibitory activities compared to N-(phenylcarbamothioyl) benzamide derivatives (L1～L13). Especially, compound L14 not only shows higher CyFBA-II activity (Ki = 0.65 μM), but also exhibits most potent in vivo activity against Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (EC50 = 0.09 ppm), higher (7-fold) than that of our previous inhibitor (EC50 = 0.6 ppm). The binding modes of compound L14 and CyFBA-II were further elucidated by jointly using DOX computational protocol, MM-PBSA and site-directed mutagenesis assays. The positive results suggest that strategy adopted in this study was promising to rapidly discovery the potent inhibitors with novel scaffolds. The satisfactory algicide activities suggest that the thiourea derivatives is very likely to be a promising lead for the development of novel specific algicides to solve Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CHABs).

Leishmaniasis is a group of diseases caused by protozoan parasites from the genus Leishmania. There are estimated 1.3 million new cases annually with a mortality of 20,000–30,000 per year, when patients are left untreated. Current chemotherapeutic drugs available present high toxicity and low efficacy, the latter mainly due to the emergence of drug-resistant parasites, which makes discovery of novel, safe, and efficacious antileishmanial drugs mandatory. The present work reports the synthesis, characterization by ESI-MS, 1H and 13C NMR, and FTIR techniques as well as in vitro and in vivo evaluation of leishmanicidal activity of guanidines derivatives presenting lower toxicity. Among ten investigated compounds, all being guanidines containing a benzoyl, a benzyl, and a substituted phenyl moiety, LQOF-G2 (IC50-ama 5.6 μM; SI = 131.8) and LQOF-G7 (IC50-ama 7.1 μM; SI = 87.1) were the most active against L. amazonensis intracellular amastigote, showing low cytotoxicity to the host cells according to their selectivity index. The most promising compound, LQOF-G2, was further evaluated in an in vivo model and was able to decrease 60% of the parasite load in foot lesions at a dose of 0.25 mg/kg/day. Moreover, this guanidine derivative demonstrated reduced hepatotoxicity compared to other leishmanicidal compounds and did not show nephrotoxicity, as determined by the analyses of biomarkers of hepatic damage and renal function, which make this compound a potential new hit for therapy against leishmaniasis.

The reaction of [(p-cymene)RuCl2]2 and [Cp*MCl2]2 (M = Rh/Ir) metal precursors with aroylthiourea ligands (L1-L3) yielded a series of neutral mono-dentate complexes 1–9. The neutral mono-dentate coordination of aroylthiourea with metals via S atom was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction study. Further reaction of mono-dentate complexes 1–9 with excess NaN3 in polar solvent resulted in the formation of highly strained four member ring к2(N,S) azido complexes 10–18. Further these complexes were treated with activated alkynes to isolate triazole complexes, but unfortunately the reaction was unsuccessful. All these complexes were fully characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. The molecular structures of the representative complexes have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The molecular structures of the complexes revealed typical piano stool geometry around the metal center. The chemosensitivity activities of the complexes 1–9 evaluated against the cancer cell line HCT-116 (human colorectal carcinoma) and ARPE-19 (human retinal epithelial cells) cell line. Of these, complex 3 was the most potent and whilst its potency was less than cisplatin, its selectivity for cancer as opposed to non-cancer cell lines in vitro was comparable to cisplatin.

An original and focused library of two sets of dihydropyrimidin-2-thiones (DHPMs) substituted with N-1 aryl groups derived from monastrol was designed and synthesized in order to discover a more effective Eg5 ligand than the template. Based on molecular docking studies, four ligands were selected to perform pharmacological investigations against two glioma cell lines. The results led to the discovery of two original compounds, called 20h and 20e, with an anti-proliferative effects, achieving IC50 values of about half that of the IC50 of monastrol in both cell lines. As with monastrol, flow cytometry analyses showed that the 20e and 20h compounds induced cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase, and immunocytochemistry essays revealed the formation of monopolar spindles due to Eg5 inhibition without any toxicity to Caenorhabditis elegans.

A series of benzoylguanidinium salts was prepared and the changes in UV/Vis spectra, triggered by the presence of anions, were investigated. All compounds undergo deprotonation with basic anions like dihydrogenphosphate and acetate in acetonitrile. The most pronounced spectral changes were obtained by deprotonation of N1-benzoyl-N3-(p-nitrophenyl) guanidinium chloride which shows the naked-eye visible color change from colorless to yellow. Measured pKa(BH+) in acetonitrile ranges from 12–16, which is comparable to the pyridinium cations. The proton transfer equilibria were also tested in acetonitrile/water mixture where all but the most acidic derivatives showed pKa(BH+) of 4–6 units which corresponds to apparent association constants of 104–106 dm3 mol?1. UV/Vis spectra of neutral and protonated forms were modelled by the TD-DFT approach using CAM-B3LYP and PBE0 functionals and compared to CC2 results. In the case of CAM-B3LYP, a parameter ω, defining amount of long-range exchange correction, was varied to achieve the best agreement with the experimental spectra. The optimized ω parameters are 0.10 a0?1 for neutral benzoylguanidines and 0.20 a0?1 for neutral nitrobenzoyl and protonated systems. The larger ω parameter in the latter is ascribed to more pronounced charge transfer character of the HOMO-LUMO transition – the one responsible for the lowest energy absorption band.

A series of fused bicyclic 2-aminothiazolyl compounds were synthesized and evaluated for their synergistic effects with polymyxin B (PB) against Klebsiella pneumoniae (SIPI-KPN-1712). Some of the synthesized compounds exhibited synergistic activity. When 4 μg ml-1 compound B1 was combined with PB, it showed potent antibacterial activity, achieving 64-fold reduction of the MIC of PB. Furthermore, compound B1 showed prominent synergistic efficacy in both concentration gradient and time-kill curves in vitro. In addition, B1 combined with PB also exhibited synergistic and partial synergistic effect against E. coli (ATCC25922 and its clinical isolates), Acinetobacter baumannii (ATCC19606 and its clinical isolates), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pae-1399).

A series of novel N-aryl-5-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethyl)-4-(tert-butyl)thiazol-2-amines (C1-C31) were synthesized and evaluated for their antitumor activities against HeLa, A549 and MCF-7 cell lines. Some tested compounds showed potent growth inhibition properties with IC50 values generally below 5 μM against the three human cancer cells lines. Compound C27 showed potent activities against HeLa and A549 cell lines with IC50 values of 2.07 ± 0.88 μM and 3.52 ± 0.49 μM, respectively. Compound C7 (IC50 = 2.06 ± 0.09 μM) was the most active compound against A549 cell line, while compound C16 (IC50 = 2.55 ± 0.34 μM) showed the best inhibitory activity against the MCF-7 cell line. The preliminary mechanism of the inhibitory effect was investigated via further experiments, such as morphological analysis by dual AO/EB staining and Hoechst 33342 staining, and cell apoptosis and cycle assessment by FACS analysis. The results illustrated that compound C27 could induce apoptosis and cause both S-phase and G2/M-phase arrests in HeLa cell line. Therefore, compound C27 could be developed as a potential antitumor agent.

The potential of tert-butyl hydroperoxide as a reagent in the guanylation of benzoylthioureas in the presence of amines has been evaluated in a systematic study involving substrates bearing N2-substituents with different electronic properties. The results show that tBuOOH is a suitable and robust reagent for the synthesis of either N1,N2,N3-tri- and tetrasubstituted or N1,N2-disubstituted guanidines from N2-substituted N1-benzoylthioureas and N1-benzoylthioureas, respectively. The recrystallised guanylation adducts were readily obtained in good yields and at high purity levels after a simple one-pot reaction procedure. The crystal structures of two novel benzoylguanidines are provided.
