Synergism of fused bicyclic 2-aminothiazolyl compounds with polymyxin B against: Klebsiella pneumoniae

A series of fused bicyclic 2-aminothiazolyl compounds were synthesized and evaluated for their synergistic effects with polymyxin B (PB) against Klebsiella pneumoniae (SIPI-KPN-1712). Some of the synthesized compounds exhibited synergistic activity. When 4 μg ml-1 compound B1 was combined with PB, it showed potent antibacterial activity, achieving 64-fold reduction of the MIC of PB. Furthermore, compound B1 showed prominent synergistic efficacy in both concentration gradient and time-kill curves in vitro. In addition, B1 combined with PB also exhibited synergistic and partial synergistic effect against E. coli (ATCC25922 and its clinical isolates), Acinetobacter baumannii (ATCC19606 and its clinical isolates), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pae-1399).

Solution-phase microwave assisted parallel synthesis of N,N′-disubstituted thioureas derived from benzoic acid: Biological evaluation and molecular docking studies

An efficient and facile microwave-assisted solution phase parallel synthesis for a 26-member library of N,N′-disubstituted thiourea analogs were accomplished successfully. The reaction time for synthesis of analogs was drastically reduced from a reported 8-12 h to only 10 min. Compounds were more than 95% pure, as characterized by modern analytical techniques, i.e. 1H & 13C NMR and FT-IR. The solid phase structural analysis has also been performed by single crystal XRD analysis. Synthesized compounds were preliminary screened for their in vitro urease inhibition and antifungal activity. Most of the compounds were found to be potent inhibitors of urease. However, the most significant activity was found for 11 with IC 50 of 1.67 μM. The docking scores correlate with the IC 50 values of inhibitors.

Structure-activity relationships of 2-aminothiazoles effective against Mycobacterium tuberculosis

A series of 2-aminothiazoles was synthesized based on a HTS scaffold from a whole-cell screen against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The SAR shows the central thiazole moiety and the 2-pyridyl moiety at C-4 of the thiazole are intolerant to modification. However, the N-2 position of the aminothiazole exhibits high flexibility and we successfully improved the antitubercular activity of the initial hit by more than 128-fold through introduction of substituted benzoyl groups at this position. N-(3-Chlorobenzoyl)-4-(2-pyridinyl) -1,3-thiazol-2-amine (55) emerged as one of the most promising analogues with a MIC of 0.024 μM or 0.008 μg/mL in 7H9 media and therapeutic index of nearly ～300. However, 55 is rapidly metabolized by human liver microsomes (t1/2 = 28 min) with metabolism occurring at the invariant aminothiazole moiety and Mtb develops spontaneous low-level resistance with a frequency of ～10-5.

Optimization of 2-aminothiazole derivatives as CCR4 antagonists

A series of 2-aminothiazole-derived antagonists of the CCR4 receptor has been synthesized and their affinity for the receptor evaluated using a [125I]TARC (CCL17) displacement assay. Optimization of these compounds for potency and pharmacokinetic properties led to the discovery of potent, orally bioavailable antagonists.

Improved Procedures for the Preparation of Cycloalkyl-, Arylalkyl-, and Arylthioureas

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.
