Tahghighi A, Azerang P. Click chemistry beyond metal-catalyzed cycloaddition as a remarkable tool for green chemical synthesis of antifungal medications. Chem Biol Drug Des 2024; 103:e14555. [PMID: 38862260 DOI: 10.1111/cbdd.14555] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 05/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024]
Abstract
Click chemistry is widely used for the efficient synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazole, a well-known scaffold with widespread biological activity in the pharmaceutical sciences. In recent years, this magic ring has attracted the attention of scientists for its potential in designing and synthesizing new antifungal agents. Despite scientific and medical advances, fungal infections still account for more than 1.5 million deaths globally per year, especially in people with compromised immune function. This increasing trend is definitely related to a raise in the incidence of fungal infections and prevalence of antifungal drug resistance. In this condition, an urgent need for new alternative antifungals is undeniable. By focusing on the main aspects of reaction conditions in click chemistry, this review was conducted to classify antifungal 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazole hybrids based on their chemical structures and introduce the most effective triazole antifungal derivatives. It was notable that in all reactions studied, Cu(I) catalysts generated in situ by the reduction in Cu(II) salts or used copper(I) salts directly, as well as mixed solvents of t-BuOH/H2O and DMF/H2O had most application in the synthesis of triazole ring. The most effective antifungal activity was also observed in fluconazole analogs containing 1,2,3-triazole moiety and benzo-fused five/six-membered heterocyclic conjugates with a 1,2,3-triazole ring, even with better activity than fluconazole. The findings of structure-activity relationship and molecular docking of antifungal derivatives synthesized with copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) could offer medicinal chemistry scientists valuable data on designing and synthesizing novel triazole antifungals with more potent biological activities in their future research.

Abstract
In order to develop novel antimicrobial agents, we prepared quinoline bearing pyrimidine analogues 2-7, 8 a-d and 9 a-d and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic techniques. Furthermore, our second aim was to predict the interactions between the active compounds and enzymes (DNA gyrase and DHFR). In this work, fourteen pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline derivatives were prepared and assessed for their antimicrobial potential by estimating zone of inhibition. All the screened candidates displayed antibacterial potential with zone of inhibition range of 9-24 mm compared with ampicillin (20-25 mm) as a reference drug. Moreover, the target derivatives 2 (ZI=16), 9 c (ZI=17 mm) and 9 d (ZI=16 mm) recorded higher antifungal activity against C. albicans to that exhibited by the antifungal drug amphotericin B (ZI=15 mm). Finally, the most potent pyrimidoquinoline compounds (2, 3, 8 c, 8 d, 9 c and 9 d) were docked inside DHFR and DNA gyrase active sites and they recorded excellent fitting within the active regions of DNA gyrase and DHFR. These outcomes revealed us that compounds (2, 3, 8 c, 8 d, 9 c and 9 d) could be lead compounds to discover novel antibacterial candidates.

Abstract
The current trend in fighting bacteria is attacking the virulence and quorum-sensing (QS) signals that control bacterial communication and virulence factors, especially biofilm formation. This study reports new Schiff bases and tetracyclic rings based on a pyridine pharmacophore by two methods: a green approach using CAN and a conventional method. The structure of designed derivatives was confirmed using different spectroscopies (IR and 1H/13C NMR) and elemental analysis. The designed derivatives exhibited good to moderate inhibition zones against bacterial and fungal pathogens. In addition, six compounds 2a,b, 3a,b, and 6a,b displayed potency against tested pathogens with eligible MIC and MBC values compared to standard antimicrobial agents. Compound 2a displayed MIC values of 15.6 μg mL-1 compared to Gentamicin (MIC = 250 μg mL-1 against K. pneumoniae), while compound 6b exhibited super-potent activity against P. aeruginosa, and K. pneumoniae with MIC values of 62.5 and 125 μg mL-1, as well as MBC values of 31.25 and 15.6 μg mL-1 compared to Gentamicin (MIC = 250 and 125 μg mL-1 and MBC = 62.5 μg mL-1), respectively. Surprisingly, these six derivatives revealed bactericidal and fungicidal potency and remarkable anti-biofilm activity that could significantly reduce the biofilm formation against MRSA, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, and C. albicans. Furthermore, the most active derivatives reduced the LasR gene's production between 10-40% at 1/8 MICs compared with untreated P. aeruginosa. Besides, they demonstrated promising safety profile on Vero cells (normal cell lines) with IC50 values ranging between (175.17 ± 3.49 to 344.27 ± 3.81 μg mL-1). In addition, the in silico ADMET prediction was carried out and the results revealed that these compounds could be used with oral bioavailability with low toxicity prediction when administered as a candidate drug. Finally, the molecular docking simulation was performed inside LasR and predicted the key binding interactions responsible for the activity that corroborated the biological results.

Abstract
Antibiotics are becoming gradually ineffective due to drug resistance, leading to greater difficulty in the treatment of infectious diseases. Therefore, the development of new chemical entities with different mechanisms of action is essential in the fight against resistant microorganisms. Various studies have shown that quinoline hydrazide/hydrazone derivatives possess several biological activities, such as antimalarial, antitubercular, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial. Among these activities, the antibacterial activity of quinoline hydrazide/hydrazone derivatives is noteworthy. The synthetic flexibility of the quinoline ring has led to the development of a wide range of structurally diverse quinoline hydrazide/hydrazone derivatives, which can act at various bacterial targets such as DNA gyrase, glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase, enoyl ACP reductase, and 3-ketoacyl ACP reductase. This review emphasizes the antibacterial potential of various reported quinoline hydrazide/hydrazone derivatives based on substitution in the quinoline ring. The antibacterial activity of various metal-quinoline hydrazide/hydrazone complexes is also discussed. The aim of this review is to assemble and scrutinize the latest reports in this promising area of drug development.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a multifaceted metabolic disorder that remains a major threat to global health security. Sadly, the clinical relevance of available drugs is burdened with an upsurge in adverse effects; hence, inhibiting the carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes α-glucosidase and α-amylase while preventing oxidative stress is deemed a practicable strategy for regulating postprandial glucose levels in DM patients. We report herein the α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibition and antioxidant profile of quinoline hybrids 4a–t and 12a–t bearing 1,3,4-oxadiazole and 1,2,3-triazole cores, respectively. Overall, compound 4i with a bromopentyl sidechain exhibited the strongest α-glucosidase inhibition (IC50 = 15.85 µM) relative to reference drug acarbose (IC50 = 17.85 µM) and the best antioxidant profile in FRAP, DPPH, and NO scavenging assays. Compounds 4a and 12g also emerged as the most potent NO scavengers (IC50 = 2.67 and 3.01 µM, respectively) compared to gallic acid (IC50 = 728.68 µM), while notable α-glucosidase inhibition was observed for p-fluorobenzyl compound 4k (IC50 = 23.69 µM) and phenyl-1,2,3-triazolyl compound 12k (IC50 = 22.47 µM). Moreover, kinetic studies established the mode of α-glucosidase inhibition as non-competitive, thus classifying the quinoline hybrids as allosteric inhibitors. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations then provided insights into the protein–ligand interaction profile and the stable complexation of promising hybrids at the allosteric site of α-glucosidase. These results showcase these compounds as worthy scaffolds for developing more potent α-glucosidase inhibitors with antioxidant activity for effective DM management.

Abstract
Facile synthesis of molecular hybrids containing a 2,4-dinitrophenyl moiety was achieved via nucleophilic aromatic substitution of the fluoride anion of Sanger's reagent (2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene) with various N, S, and O nucleophiles, considered as bioactive moieties. Antimicrobial evaluation of the new hybrids was carried out using amoxicillin and nystatin as antibacterial and antifungal reference standards, respectively. MIC test results identified the compounds 3, 4, and 7 as the most active hybrids against standard strains and multidrug-resistant strains (MDR) of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aurginosa. Most of the hybrids displayed two times the antibacterial activity of AMOX against MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa, E. coli, and a standard strain of P. aeruginosa (ATCC 29853), while demonstrating a weak antifungal profile against Candida albicans. Selectivity profiles of the promising compounds 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 11 on WI-38 human cells were characterized, which indicated that compound 3 is the safest one (CC50 343.72 μM). The preferential anti-Gram-negative activity of our compounds led us to do docking studies on DNA gyrase B. Docking revealed that the potential antimicrobial compounds fit well into the active site of DNA gyrase B. Furthermore, in silico absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) predictions revealed that most of the new compounds have high gastrointestinal absorption and a good oral bioavailability with no BBB permeability.

Abstract
The synthesis, structural analysis, and evaluation of the photophysical properties of twelve novel 2-aryl(heteroaryl)-6-(4-alkyl(aryl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)quinolines (6-8), where aryl(heteroaryl)=Ph, 4-Me-C6 H4 , 4-F-C6 H4 and 2- furyl; 4-alkyl(aryl)=-CH2 OH, -(CH2 )5 CH3 and Ph, are reported. Hybrid scaffolds 6-8 were synthesized at 77-95 % yields by regioselective copper-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction of unpublished 6-azido-4-(trifluoromethyl)quinolines (2) with selected terminal alkynes (3-5). Azido intermediates 2 were obtained from the reaction of 6-amino-4-(trifluoromethyl)quinolines (1) and sodium azide at good yields (78-87 %). Compounds 6-8 were structurally fully characterized by 1 H-, 13 C- and 19 F- and 1 H-13 C 2D-NMR (HSQC, HMBC) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) and HRMS analysis. Moreover, the photophysical properties, DNA- and HSA-binding experiments (bio-interactions), and molecular docking studies for compounds 6-8 were performed. These are discussed and compared with similar compounds from recent research.

Abstract
The search for new antimicrobials is imperative due to the emergent resistance of new microorganism strains. In this context, revisiting known classes like 8-hydroxyquinolines could be an interesting strategy to discover new agents. The 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives nitroxoline and clioquinol are used to treat microbial infections; however, these drugs are underused, being available in few countries or limited to topical use. After years of few advances, in the last two decades, the potent activity of clioquinol and nitroxoline against several targets and the privileged structure of 8-hydroxyquinoline nucleus have prompted an increased interest in the design of novel antimicrobial, anticancer, and anti-Alzheimer agents based on this class. Herein, we discuss the current development and antimicrobial structure-activity relationships of this class in the perspective of using the 8-hydroxyquinoline nucleus for the search for novel antimicrobial agents. Furthermore, the most investigated molecular targets concerning 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives are explored in the final section.

Abstract
Some urea-thiazole/benzothiazole hybrids with a triazole linker were synthesized via Cu(I)-catalysed click reaction. After successfully analysed by various spectral techniques including FTIR, NMR and HRMS, antimicrobial screening of the synthesized hybrids along with their precursors was carried out against two Gram (+) bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus endophyticus), two Gram (-) bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas fluorescens) and two fungi (Candida albicans and Rhizopus oryzae). All the synthesized compounds (4a-4l) displayed better biological response than the standard fluconazole against both of the tested fungi. Compounds 4h and 4j were found to be the most active compounds against R. oryzae and C. albicans, respectively. Molecular docking of hybrid 4j and its alkyne precursor 1b in the active site of C. albicans target sterol 14-α demethylase was also performed and was also supported by molecular dynamics studies. In silico ADME prediction of synthesized urea-thiazole/benzothiazole hybrids with a triazole linker and their alkyne precursors was also predicted.

Abstract
The current study was aimed to discover potent inhibitors of α-glucosidase enzyme. A 25 membered library of new 1,2,3-triazole derivatives of hydrochlorothiazide (1) (HCTZ, a diuretic drug also being used for the treatment of high blood pressure) was synthesized through click chemistry approach. The structures of all derivatives 2-26 were deduced by MS, IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectroscopic techniques. All the compounds were found to be new. Compounds 1-26 were evaluated for α-glucosidase enzyme inhibition activity. Among them, 18 compounds showed potent inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase with IC50 values between 24 and 379 µM. α-Glucosidase inhibitor drug acarbose (IC50 = 875.75 ± 2.08 μM) was used as the standard. Kinetics studies of compounds 6, 9, 11, 12, 15, 20, 23, and 24 revealed that only compound 15 as a mixed-type of inhibitor, while others were non-competitive inhibitors of α-glucosidase enzyme. All the compounds were found to be non-cytotoxic when checked against mouse fibroblast 3T3 cell line.

Abstract
1,2,3-Triazole, a five-membered heterocyclic nucleus, is widely recognized as a key chromophore of great value in medicinal chemistry for delivering compounds possessing innumerable biological activities, including antimicrobial, antitubercular, antidiabetic, antiviral, antitumor, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory activities. Mainly, in the past years, diverse conjugates carrying this biologically valuable core have been reported due to their attractive fungicidal potential and potent effects on various infective targets. Hence, hybridization of 1,2,3-triazole with other antimicrobial pharmacophores appears to be a judicious strategy to develop new effective anti-fungal candidates to combat the emergence of drug-sensitive and drug-resistant infectious diseases. Thus, the current review highlights the recent advances of this promising category of 1,2,3-triazole-containing hybrids incorporating diverse varieties of bioactive heterocycles such as conozole, coumarin, imidazole, benzimidazole, pyrazole, indole, oxindole, chromene, pyrane, quinazoline, chalcone, isoflavone, carbohydrates, and amides. It underlies their inhibition behavior against a wide array of infectious fungal species during 2015-2020.

Abstract
An environment friendly, high yielding, promising one-pot protocol for the click reaction of N-propargyl-3-formylindole 2(a-b), chloroacetic acid/ester 3(a-b) and sodium azide, leading to the formation of 3-formyl-indole clubbed 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazole derivatives 4(a-b), 5(a-b) and 6(a-f) aided by CuI catalyst accomplished under acceleration of simultaneous ultrasound and microwave irradiation in a very short reaction time has been described. Further, acid derivative 4(a-b) is subjected to acid-amine coupling reaction with secondary amine (p-t) in the presence of HATU to afford 6(p-t) and 7(p-t). The perspective of this protocol is to get rid of the hectic preparation and handling of organic azide which are generated in situ. Consequently, this protocol blossoms the click process by making it environment benign, user-friendly, safe and clean technique. All the synthesized compounds have been preliminarily screen for their in vitro antimicrobial activity against a panel of pathogenic strains. The majority of compounds possess noticeably inhibitory action against E. Coli, S. Typhi, P. Aeruginosa, C. tetani, S. aureus and B. subtillis. Among all compounds, 6p and 7q exhibit excellent inhibitory action against E.Coli and P. Aeruginosa strain, respectively, as compared to standard drug. One compound 5b shows remarkable potency against fungal strain. Molecular docking study was carried out to understand binding of compound with protein. In silico ADME prediction was carried out to check physicochemical properties of synthesized compound.
