Tyrosinase plays important roles in many different disease related processes, and the development of its inhibitors is particularly important in biotechnology. In this study, thirty-nine 3-/4-alkoxyphenylethyli-denethiosemicarbazides were synthesized as novel tyrosinase inhibitors based on structure-based molecular design. Our experimental results demonstrated that thirty-one of them possess remarkable tyrosinase inhibitory activities with IC50 value below 1μM, and 5a, 6e, 6g and 6t did not display any toxicity to 293T cell line at the concentration of 1000μmol/L. According to the inhibitory activities, several compounds were selected for detail investigation on the structure–activity relationships (SARs), mechanisms of enzyme inhibition, inhibitory kinetics and cytotoxicity. In particular, the interaction between the selected inhibitors and the active center of tyrosinase was considered and discussed in detail based on their structural characteristics. Taken together, the results presented here demonstrated that the newly designed compounds are promising candidates for the treatment of tyrosinase-related disorders and further development of them may have significant contribution in biomedical science.

Abstract: The present work describes the in vitro antibacterial evaluation of some new pyrimidine derivatives. Twenty-two target compounds were designed, synthesized and preliminarily explored for their antimicrobial activities. The antimicrobial assay revealed that some target compounds exhibited significantly inhibitory efficiencies toward bacteria and fungal including drug-resistant pathogens. Compound 7c presented the most potent inhibitory activities against Gram-positive bacteria (e.g., Staphylococcus aureus 4220), Gram-negative bacteria (e.g., Escherichia coli 1924) and the fungus Candida albicans 7535, with an MIC of 2.4?μmol/L. Compound 7c was also the most potent, with MICs of 2.4 or 4.8?μmol/L against four multidrug-resistant, Gram-positive bacterial strains. The toxicity evaluation of the compounds 7c, 10a, 19d and 26b was assessed in human normal liver cells (L02 cells). Molecular docking simulation and analysis suggested that compound 7c has a good interaction with the active cavities of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). In vitro enzyme study implied that compound 7c also displayed DHFR inhibition. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

A new homologous series of 4,5-disubstituted 2H-[1,2,3]-triazole derivatives were synthesized from chalcones and sodium azide via oxidative cycloaddition reaction; CuI was used as catalyst. Flexibility in the synthesized molecules was provided by attaching straight alkoxy chains. The synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, and 1HNMRand 13CNMRand LC-MS spectroscopies . The stability and range of the mesophases increased with the length of the chain on the triazoles. The melting point, transition temperatures, and enantiotropic liquid crystal morphologies were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarizing optical microscopy (POM) equipped with a hot stage.
