Tuberculosis is the leading cause of death globally among infectious diseases. Due to the development of resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to currently used anti-TB medicines and the TB-HIV synergism the urgent need to develop novel anti-mycobacterial agents has been realized. The drug-to-target path has been the successful strategy for new anti-TB drug development. All the six drug candidates that have shown promise during the clinical trials and some of these being approved for treatment against MDR TB are the results of phenotype screening of small molecule compound libraries. In search of compounds belonging to novel pharmacophoric class that could be subjected to whole cell assay to generate new anti-TB leads the benzo[d]imidazole-2-carboxamide moiety has been designed as a novel anti-TB scaffold. The design was based on the identification of the benzimidazole ring as a prominent substructure of the FDA approved drugs, the structural analysis of reported anti-TB benzimidazoles, and the presence of the C-2 carboxamido functionality in novel bioisoteric anti-TB benzothiazoles. Twenty seven final compounds have been prepared via NH4Cl-catalyzed amidation of ethyl benzo[d]imidazole-2-carboxylates, as the required intermediates, obtained through a green “all water” one-pot synthetic route following a tandem N-arylation-reduction-cyclocondensation procedure. All of the synthesised target compounds were assessed for anti-TB potential using H37Rv ATCC27294 strain. Thirteen compounds were found with better MIC (0.78–6.25 μg/mL) than the standard drugs and being non-cytotoxic nature ( 60) and a few others e.g., 8a, 8f, 8k and 8o are the next best anti-TB hits (MIC: 1.56 μg/mL). The determination and analysis of various physiochemical parameters revealed favorable druglike properties of the active compounds. The compounds 8a-l and 8o, with MIC values of ≤ 6.25 μg/mL, have high LipE values (10.66–11.77) that are higher than that of the suggested value of > 6 derived from empirical evidence for quality drug candidates and highlight their therapeutic potential. The highest LipE value of 11.77 of the best active compound 8e with the MIC of 0.78 μg/mL indicates its better absorption and clearance as a probable clinical candidate for anti-TB drug discovery. These findings highlight the discovery of benzimidazole-2-carboxamides for further development as new anti-TB agents.

Blocking c-Met kinase activity by small-molecule inhibitors has been identified as a promising approach for the treatment of cancers. Herein, we described the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a series of 4-phenoxypyridine-based 3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxaline derivatives as c-Met kinase inhibitors. Inhibitory activitives against c-Met kinase evaluation indicated that most of compounds showed excellent c-Met kinase activity in vitro, and IC50 values of ten compounds (23a, 23e, 23f, 23l, 23r, 23s, 23v, 23w, 23x and 23y) were less than 10.00 nM. Notably, three of them (23v, 23w and 23y) showed remarkable potency with IC50 values of 2.31 nM, 1.91 nM and 2.44 nM, respectively, and thus they were more potent than positive control drug foretinib (c-Met, IC50 = 2.53 nM). Cytotoxic evaluation indicated the most promising compound 23w showed remarkable cytotoxicity against A549, H460 and HT-29 cell lines with IC50 values of 1.57 μM, 0.94 μM and 0.65 μM, respectively. Furthermore, the acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/EB) staining, cell apoptosis assays by flow cytometry, wound-healing assays and transwell migration assays on HT-29 and/or A549 cells of 23w were performed. Especially compound 23w, which displayed potent antitumor, apoptosis induction and antimetastatic activity, could be used as a promising lead for further development. Meanwhile, their preliminary structure-activity relationships (SARs) were also discussed.

A series of novel 4-phenoxyquinoline derivatives containing 3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxaline moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their c-Met kinase inhibitory activity and antiproliferative activity against five cancer cell lines (HT-29, H460, A549, MKN-45 and U87MG) in vitro. Most of the compounds exhibited moderate-to-significant cytotoxicity as compared with foretinib. The most promising compound 41 (with c-Met IC50 value of 0.90?nM) showed remarkable cytotoxicity against HT-29, H460, A549, MKN-45 and U87MG cell lines with IC50 values of 0.06?μM, 0.05?μM, 0.18?μM, 0.023?μM and 0.66?μM, respectively, and thus it was 1.22- to 3.50-fold more potent than foretinib. Their preliminary structure-activity relationships (SARs) studies indicate that electron-withdrawing groups on the terminal phenyl rings are beneficial for improving the antitumor activity.
