In this study, three new 6-(arylthio)uracil derivatives, namely, 6-(phenylthio)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (1), C10H8N2O2S; 6-(p-tolylthio)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (2), C11H10N2O2S; and 6-(3,5-dimethylphenylthio)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (3), C12H12N2O2S, have been synthesized. Single-crystal structures of these compounds reveal an invariant molecular tape contains alternate R22(8) synthons formed by N-H···O hydrogen bonds in 1 and 3. This alternate hydrogen-bonded pattern disappeared in 2; instead, a new synthon is generated. The lattice energy calculation suggests that the methyl-substituted derivatives (2 and 3) have high stabilization energy than compound 1. The electrostatic potential map reveals the difference in the accepting tendency of the carbonyl oxygen. The Hirshfeld surface and 2D-fingerprint plots analyses demonstrate that the major intermolecular interactions come from H···O contacts in 1, and these contacts were reduced due to the presence of methyl substitutions in 2 and 3. This reduction is compensated by the increase of the same amount of H···H contacts in these structures. Further, the PIXEL energy and DFT calculations at the M06-2X-D3/cc-pVTZ level of theory were used to characterize the dimeric topology formed in structures of 1-3. The intermolecular interaction energies of dimers calculated by the PIXEL method were compared with the B97D3/def2-TZVP level of approximation. Although these molecules' crystal packing is somewhat different, the energy frameworks show similarities on the respective crystal structure's shortest axis. Furthermore, the nature and strength of various noncovalent interactions such as N-H···O, C-H···O/S/π, π···π, and a chalcogen bond of type C-S···O═C were evaluated using the Bader's quantum theory of atoms-in-molecules framework.

The recently discovered enzyme tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2) has been implicated in the topoisomerase-mediated repair of DNA damage. In the clinical setting, it has been hypothesized that TDP2 may mediate drug resistance to topoisomerase II (topo II) inhibition by etoposide. Therefore, selective pharmacological inhibition of TDP2 is proposed as a novel approach to overcome intrinsic or acquired resistance to topo II-targeted drug therapy. Following a high-throughput screening (HTS) campaign, toxoflavins and deazaflavins were identified as the first reported sub-micromolar and selective inhibitors of this enzyme. Toxoflavin derivatives appeared to exhibit a clear structure-activity relationship (SAR) for TDP2 enzymatic inhibition. However, we observed a key redox liability of this series, and this, alongside early in vitro drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) issues, precluded further exploration. The deazaflavins were developed from a singleton HTS hit. This series showed distinct SAR and did not display redox activity; however low cell permeability proved to be a challenge.

A series of pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-2,4-dione derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxic activities in vitro against five human cancer cell lines. Selected compounds were tested for their MDM2 E3 ligase inhibitory activities and p53-MDM2 binding inhibitory activities. Among tested compounds, four sulfur-containing compounds (4-7) displayed enhanced cytotoxic activities and better MDM2 E3 ligase inhibitoty activities in comparison with that of HLI98c. Three compounds (4-6) showed better p53-MDM2 binding inhibitory potency with IC50 values ranging from 1.3 μM to 9.0 μM.
