Synthesis and Docking Study of Novel Pyranocoumarin Derivatives

Abstract: A new series of fused tricyclic coumarin derivatives were designed, synthesized by a simple and convenient method, starting from 4-hydroxycoumarin and virtually screened by molecular docking on the target protein 3FRZ (PDB ID: 3FRZ), a HCV RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, for potency against hepatitis C virus (HCV). Efficient binding to the target protein was found for most of the synthesized compounds.

New Flavone-Cyanoacetamide Hybrids with a Combination of Cholinergic, Antioxidant, Modulation of β-Amyloid Aggregation, and Neuroprotection Properties as Innovative Multifunctional Therapeutic Candidates for Alzheimer's Disease and Unraveling Their Mechanism of Action with Acetylcholinesterase

In line with the modern multi-target-directed ligand paradigm of Alzheimer's disease (AD), a series of 19 compounds composed of flavone and cyanoacetamide groups have been synthesized and evaluated as multifunctional agents against AD. Biological evaluation demonstrated that compounds 7j, 7n, 7o, 7r, and 7s exhibited excellent inhibitory potency (AChE, IC50 of 0.271 ± 0.012 to 1.006 ± 0.075 μM) and good selectivity toward acetylcholinesterase, significant antioxidant activity, good modulation effects on self-induced Aβ aggregation, low cytotoxicity, and neuroprotection in human neuroblastoma SK-N-SH cells. Further, an inclusive study on the interaction of 7j, 7n, 7o, 7r, and 7s with AChE at physiological pH 7.2 using fluorescence, circular dichroism, and molecular docking methods suggested that these derivatives bind strongly to the peripheral anionic site of AChE mostly through hydrophobic interactions. Overall, the multifunctional profiles and strong AChE binding affinity highlight these compounds as promising prototypes for further pursuit of innovative multifunctional drugs for AD.

Synthesis, pharmacological assessment, molecular modeling and in silico studies of fused tricyclic coumarin derivatives as a new family of multifunctional anti-Alzheimer agents

A series of fused tricyclic coumarin derivatives bearing iminopyran ring connected to various amido moieties were developed as potential multifunctional anti-Alzheimer agents for their cholinesterase inhibitory and radical scavenging activities. In vitro studies revealed that most of these compounds exhibited high inhibitory activity on acetylcholinesterase (AChE), with IC50 values ranging from 0.003 to 0.357 μM which is 2-220 folds more potent than the positive control, galantamine. Their inhibition selectivity against AChE over butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) has increased about 194 fold compared with galantamine. The developed compounds also showed potent ABTS radical scavenging activity (IC50 7.98-15.99 μM). Specifically, the most potent AChE inhibitor 6n (IC50 0.003 ± 0.0007 μM) has an excellent antioxidant profile as determined by the ABTS method (IC50 7.98 ± 0.77 μM). Moreover, cell viability studies in SK N SH cells showed that the compounds 6m-q have significant neuroprotective effects against H2O2-induced cell death, and are not neurotoxic at all concentrations except 6n and 6q. The kinetic analysis of compound 6n proved that it is a mixed-type inhibitor for EeAChE (Ki1 0.0103 μM and Ki2 0.0193 μM). Accordingly, the molecular modeling study demonstrated that 6m-q with substituted benzyl amido moiety possessed an optimal docking pose with interactions at catalytic active site (CAS) and peripheral anionic site (PAS) of AChE simultaneously and thereby they might prevent aggregation of Aβ induced by AChE. Furthermore, in silico ADMET prediction studies indicated that these compounds satisfied all the characteristics of CNS acting drugs. Most active inhibitor 6n is permeable to BBB as determined in the in vivo brain AChE activity. To sum up, the multipotent therapuetic profile of these novel tricyclic coumarins makes them promising leads for developing anti-Alzheimer agents.

Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, and Molecular Docking of 8-imino-2-oxo-2H,8H-pyrano[2,3-f]chromene Analogs: New Dual AChE Inhibitors as Potential Drugs for the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease

Alzheimer's disease onset and progression are associated with the dysregulation of multiple and complex physiological processes, and a successful therapeutic approach should therefore address more than one target. In line with this modern paradigm, a series of 8-imino-2-oxo-2H,8H-pyrano[2,3-f]chromene analogs (4a–q) were synthesized and evaluated for their multitarget-directed activity on acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), 2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical, and amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) specific targets for Alzheimer's disease therapy. Most of the synthesized compounds showed remarkable acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities in low nm concentrations and good ABTS radical scavenging activity, however, no evidence of BuChE inhibitory activity. Among them, 3-bromobenzylamide derivative 4m exhibited the best acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity with IC50 value of 13 ± 1.4 nm which is 51-fold superior to galantamine, a reference drug. Kinetic and molecular docking studies indicated 4m as mixed-type inhibitor, binding simultaneously to catalytic active and peripheral anionic sites of acetylcholinesterase. Five compounds 4e, 4f, 4g, 4j, and 4k have shown 1.4- to 2.5-fold of higher antioxidant activities than trolox. Interestingly, the most active compound 4m demonstrated dosage-dependent acceleration of Aβ1?42 aggregation, which may reduce toxicity of oligomers. Overall, these results lead to discovery of fused tricyclic coumarins as promising dual binding site inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase and afford multifunctional compounds with potential impact for further pharmacological development in Alzheimer's therapy.

Synthesis of new 8-formyl-4-methyl-7-hydroxy coumarin derivatives

8-Formyl-4-Methyl-7-Hydroxy Coumarin Derivatives were synthesized via Penchem condensation followed by Duffs reaction. Treatment of this with N,N-di substituted cyano acetamides in the presence of piperdine afforded New 8- Formyl-4-Methyl-7-Hydroxy Coumarin Derivatives (7a-o). Their structures were characterized by IR, 1H and 13C NMR and Mass spectral and elemental analysis data.
