We report herein, the design, synthesis and study of anticancer properties of sulfenylated 2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and their analogues. A set of twenty sulfenylated imidazo[1, 2-a]pyridine derivatives were synthesized. Whereby elusive amendments to the imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine motif confer dramatic changes in functional affinity of a novel action to modulate anticancer activity in seven different human cancer cell lines i.e.: MDA MB 231 (breast), HepG2 (liver), Hela (cervical), A549 (lung), U87MG (glioblastoma), SKMEL-28 (skin melanoma) and DU-145 (prostate) by employing MTT assay. Among the series, compounds 4e (naphthalene), 4f (styrene) and 4h (thiomethyl) showed potent activity towards human liver cancer cells HepG2. Cell cycle analysis results revealed that these compounds arrested the cell cycle at G2/M phase and induced apoptosis in human liver cancer cells HepG2. It was further confirmed by Hoechst staining, Measurement of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and Annexin V-FITC assay.

Neglected tropical diseases remain among the most critical public health concerns in Africa and South America. The drug treatments for these diseases are limited, which invariably leads to fatal cases. Hence, there is an urgent need for new antitrypanosomal drugs. To address this issue, a large number of diverse heterocyclic compounds were prepared. Straightforward synthetic approaches tolerated pre-functionalized structures, giving rise to a structurally diverse set of analogs. We report on a set of 57 heterocyclic compounds with selective activity potential against kinetoplastid parasites. In general, 29 and 19 compounds of the total set could be defined as active against Trypanosoma cruzi and T. brucei brucei, respectively (antitrypanosomal activities 10 μM). The present work discusses the structure?activity relationships of new fused-ring scaffolds based on imidazopyridine/pyrimidine and furopyridine cores. This library of compounds shows significant potential for anti-trypanosomiases drug discovery.

A green and efficient mechanochemical method for the synthesis of a series of 2-arylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines was developed using an electrical grinder. I2 catalyzed mechanochemical grinding facilitates the cyclocondensation reaction between various aryl methyl ketones and 2-aminopyridines to afford 2-arylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines in good yields at ambient temperature. The method was successfully used for the gram-scale synthesis of a marketed drug, zolimidine. The noticeable advantages of this environmentally sustainable protocol include mild conditions, simple instrumentation, inexpensive catalyst, atom economy, short reaction time etc.
