Pharmacomodulations of the benzoyl-thiosemicarbazide scaffold reveal antimicrobial agents targeting D-alanyl-D-alanine ligase in bacterio

D-Alanyl-D-alanine ligase (Ddl) is a validated and attractive target among the bacterial enzymes involved in peptidoglycan biosynthesis. In the present work, we investigated the pharmacomodulations of the benzoylthiosemicarbazide scaffold to identify new Ddl inhibitors with antibacterial potency. Five novel series of thiosemicarbazide analogues, 1,2,4-thiotriazole-3-thiones, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles, phenylthiosemicarbazones, diacylthiosemicarbazides and thioureas were synthesized via straightforward procedures, then tested against Ddl and on susceptible or resistant bacterial strains. Among these, the thiosemicarbazone and thiotriazole were identified as the most promising scaffolds with Ddl inhibition potency in the micromolar range. Antimicrobial evaluation of salicylaldehyde-4(N)-(3,4-dichlorophenyl) thiosemicarbazone 33, one of the best compounds in our study, revealed interesting antimicrobial activities with values of 3.12–6.25 μM (1.06–2.12 μg/mL) against VRE strains and 12.5–25.0 μM (4.25–8.50 μg/mL) towards MRSA and VRSA strains. A detailed mechanistic study was conducted on the Ddl inhibitors 4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-5-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione 20 and compound 33, and revealed a bactericidal effect at 5 × MIC concentration after 7 h and 24 h, respectively, and a bacteriostatic effect at 1 × MIC or 2 × MIC without any sign of bacterial membrane disruption at these lower concentrations. Finally, 20 and 33 were proved to target Ddl in bacterio via intracellular LC-MS dosage of D-Ala, L-Ala and D-Ala-D-Ala. Although, at this stage, our results indicate that other mechanisms might be involved to explain the antimicrobial potency of our compounds, their ability to inhibit the growth of strains resistant to usual antibiotics, as well as strains that express alternative ligases, sets the stage for the development of new antimicrobial agents potentially less sensitive to resistance mechanisms.

The origin of the longer wavelength emission in 2-(4-fluorophenylamino)-5-(2,4-dihydroxybenzeno)-1,3,4-thiadiazole and its analogue 2-phenylamino-5-(2-hydroxybenzono)-1,3,4-thiadiazole

In aqueous solution, 2-(4-fluorophenylamino)-5-(2,4-dihydroxybenzeno)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (FABT) was found to emit dual emission and the longer wavelength emission was assigned to the combination of aggregation and conformational change. In a number of mole

Synthesis of some 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives as inhibitors of Entamoeba histolytica

In the quest for potent anti-amoebic agents, some 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives were synthesized and characterized by spectral data. The purity of the compounds was confirmed by elemental analysis. All the compounds were screened in vitro against HM1:IMSS strain of Entamoeba histolytica by microdilution method. The results revealed that compounds 1 (IC50 = 0.670 μM), 3 (IC50 = 1.60 μM) and 8 (IC50 = 0.522 μM) had much better anti-amoebic activity than the reference drug metronidazole (IC50 = 1.80 μM). Further, cytotoxicity of the compounds having IC50 value less than metronidazole was assessed by MTT assay on human breast cancer MCF-7 cell line and all the compounds were found low cytotoxic in the concentration range of 2.5-250 μM. Preliminary results indicate that these three compounds (1, 3 and 8) may be subjected to further investigations and it may be hoped that the present study will stimulate efforts towards the development of novel effective anti-amoebic agents.

Dithiocarbamate as an efficient intermediate for the synthesis of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles in water

A new and facile protocol for the synthesis of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles in water is described. Reaction of acid hydrazides with easily prepared dithiocarbamates gives the corresponding thiadiazoles in moderate to excellent yields. 2-Amino-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were not observed as side products using this procedure.
