Novel benzoxazole derivatives featuring rhodanine and analogs as antihypergycemic agents: synthesis, molecular docking, and biological studies

A novel series of benzoxazolyl linked benzylidene based rhodanine and their cyclic analogs were synthesized, characterized and evaluated for their α-amyloglucosidase inhibitory activity. Out of eight target compounds, two compounds (4b and 5b) displayed potent inhibitory activity against α-amyloglucosidase with IC50 values in the range of 0.24 ± 0.01–0.94 ± 0.01 μM as compared to standard drug acarbose. Among all the tested compounds, compound 5b containing rhodanine at 3-position of phenyl was found to be the most active inhibitor of α-amyloglucosidase. Docking studies showed the existence of potential H-bonding interactions between synthesized compounds and α-glucosidase which might be responsible for good biological activity.

Method for preparing halogenated (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbons

The invention relates to a method for preparing halogenated (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbons. The halogenated (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbons are prepared from cheap and easily available perfluorobutyl iodide, carbon tetrabromide and carbon tetrachloride as iodinated, brominated and chlorinated reagents respectively under the action of alkali catalysis (promotion). The method comprises the following steps: firstly, (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbons, a halogenated reagent and an inorganic base are placed in an organic solvent, stirred at room temperature and monitored with TLC until a substrate disappears, and the reaction is stopped; then, a reaction mixed solution is poured into water and extracted, an organic phase is dried, and the organic solvent is removed under reduced pressure; finally, silica-gel column chromatography is performed on a crude product, and a product is obtained. Purification can also be performed by recrystallization. The method has the advantages that the synthetic route is wide in substrate range, raw materials and reagents are cheap and easily available, operation is simple, conditions are mild, yield is high, energy consumption is reduced, the reaction route is safe, gram-grade preparation can be performed and the like.

Efficient transposition of the sandmeyer reaction from batch to continuous process

The transposition of Sandmeyer chlorination from a batch to a safe continuous-flow process was investigated. Our initial approach was to develop a cascade method using flow chemistry which involved the generation of a diazonium salt and its quenching with copper chloride. To achieve this safe continuous process diazotation, a chemometric approach (Simplex method) was used and extrapolated to establish a fully continuous-flow method. The reaction scope was also examined via the synthesis of several (het)aryl chlorides. Validation and scale-up of the process were also performed. A higher productivity was obtained with increased safety.

Synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular docking study of N-arylbenzo[d]oxazol-2-amines as potential α-glucosidase inhibitors

A novel series of N-arylbenzo[d]oxazol-2-amines (4a–4m) were synthesized and evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Compounds 4f–4i, 4k and 4m displayed potent inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase with IC50values in the range of 32.49?±?0.17–120.24?±?0.51?μM as compared to the standard drug acarbose. Among all tested compounds, compound 4g having 4-phenoxy substitution at the phenyl ring was found to be the most active inhibitor of α-glucosidase with an IC50value of 32.49?±?0.17?μM. Analysis of the kinetics of enzyme inhibition indicated that compound 4g is a noncompetitive inhibitor of α-glucosidase with a Kivalue of 31.33?μM. Binding interaction of compound 4g with α-glucosidase was explored by molecular docking simulation.

A convenient one-pot synthesis of N-substituted 2-aminoazole derivatives

A practical protocol for the one-pot synthesis of N-substituted 2-aminoazole derivatives is described, employing simple azole substrates, nitrogen nucleophiles, lithium tert-butoxide as the base, and iodine to mediate carbon-nitrogen bond formation. This method proceeds at room temperature under an air atmosphere using a normal benchtop set-up, or can be performed conveniently using microwave irradiation.

Preliminary structure-activity relationship analysis displayed that compound 8t with a 5,6-difluorosubstituted benzothiazole was found to be a potent inhibitor of Gram-positive pathogens, and exhibited some potential against drug-resistant bacteria and without cytotoxicity in therapeutic concentrations. In addition, molecular docking studies indicated that Staphylococcus aureus methionyl-tRNA synthetase might be the possible target of these compounds. Taken together, the present study provides an effective entry to the synthesis of a good lead for subsequent optimization and a new small molecule candidate drug for antibacterial therapeutics.
