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.

Two series of compounds carrying 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole scaffold were synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer activity against a panel of cancer cell lines using XTT assay. The 1,2,4-triazole synthesis was revisited for the first series of pyridyl derivatives. The biological results revealed the efficiency of the 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole core that could not be replaced and a clear beneficial effect of a 3-bromophenylamino moiety in position 3 of the triazole for both series (compounds 2.6 and 4.6) on several cell lines tested. Moreover, our results point out an antiangiogenic activity of these compounds. Overall, the 5-aryl-3-phenylamino-1,2,4-triazole structure has promising dual anticancer activity.

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.

Urea is one of the most used nitrogen fertilizers worldwide. However, occurrence of urea hydrolysis to ammonia and carbon dioxide on soil surface, catalyzed by soil ureases, considerably reduces nitrogen availability to crops. In this study, we describe the design, synthesis and screening of sixty five benzoylthioureas (BTUs) for their ability to inhibit purified jack bean and soil ureases. BTUs were readily obtained in one pot, two steps synthesis with no need of cumbersome procedures for product purification. In vitro assays revealed BTUs 11, 12, 14, 19-22 and 37 as the most active jack bean urease inhibitors. Such BTUs were found to be able to bind to both catalytic and allosteric sites of urease, acting therefore as mixed-type inhibitors. Out of 28 compounds that effectively inhibited soil ureases activity, BTUs 3, 6, 10, 12, 16, 19 and 22 were determined to be more potent than the reference inhibitor N-(butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT; 40%). The other 22 BTUs were as potent as NBPT on soil ureases. The temperature-tolerance of BTUs, along with their ability to inhibit soil ureases, makes of this class of compounds potential additive for urea-based fertilizers.

To find new H+/K+-ATPase inhibitors for the treatment of peptic ulcer disease, a series of novel N-aryl isothiourea derivatives were synthesized and their structures were identified by 1H NMR and GC-MS. The effects of these compounds on inhibiting gastric acid secretion were evaluated by the guinea pig stomach mucous membrane study with pantoprazole magnesium as a positive control. The results showed that, of the 37 N-aryl isothiourea compounds synthesized, 20 compounds have comparable or stronger gastric acid inhibitory activities than that of pantoprazole magnesium. The quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) of the N-aryl isothiourea compounds were also studied by comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) computation, and the model structure that was supposed to give more powerful bioactivities was finally predicted. A series of novel N-aryl isothiourea derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their effects of inhibiting gastric acid secretion using the guinea pig stomach mucous membrane study with pantoprazole magnesium as a positive control. Compounds 2c, 2e, and 2k have higher bioactivity. The quantitative structure-activity relationships also defined these structural requirements.

S-Ethyl N-phenylisothiourea (4) has been found to be a potent inhibitor of both the human constitutive and inducible isoforms of nitric oxide synthase. A series of substituted N-phenylisothiourea analogues was synthesized to investigate the structure-activity relationship of this class of inhibitor. Each analogue was evaluated for human isoform selectivity. One analogue, S-ethyl N-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]isothiourea (39), exhibited 115-fold and 29-fold selectivity for the neuronal isoform versus the inducible and endothelial derived constitutive isoforms, respectively. Studies have shown the substituted N-phenylisothiourea 39 binds competitively with L,-arginine.

An improved procedure for the preparation of arylthioureas consists of the reaction of benzoyl isothiocyanate with anilines in acetone and debenzoylation of the resultant N-aryl-N'-benzoylthioureas with 5percent aqueous sodium hydroxide.Bicycloalkylthioureas and N-(arylalkyl)thioureas (e.g. 9H-9-fluorenylthiourea) are directly prepared from the corresponding isothiocyanates and ammonia.
