Pyrimidine-based sulfonamides and acetamides as potent antimicrobial Agents: Synthesis, Computational Studies, and biological assessment. Bioorg Chem 2024; 151:107667. [PMID: 39067418 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107667] [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: 04/15/2024] [Revised: 07/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024]
Abstract
A series of novel sulfonamide and acetamide derivatives of pyrimidine were synthesized and their antimicrobial activities were assessed. Based on the Microbroth dilution method, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the synthesized compounds demonstrated moderate to good levels of antifungal and antibacterial activity. Structure-activity relationship analysis suggested that the presence of electron-withdrawing groups, such as halogens, nitrile, and nitro groups, on the pyrimidine ring contributed to the enhanced antimicrobial potency, while electron-donating substituents led to a decrease in activity. Computational studies, including density functional theory (DFT), frontier molecular orbitals (FMO), and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) analysis, provided insights into the electronic properties and charge distribution of the compounds. Drug-likeness evaluation using ADME/Tox analysis indicated that the synthesized compounds possess favorable physicochemical properties and could be potential drug candidates. Molecular docking against the Mycobacterium TB protein tyrosine phosphatase B (MtbPtpB) revealed that the synthesized compounds exhibited strong binding affinities (-46 kcal/mol to - 61 kcal/mol) and formed stable protein-ligand complexes through hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking interactions with key residues in the active site. The observed interactions from the docking simulations were consistent with the predicted interaction sites identified in the FMO and MEP analyses. These findings suggest that the synthesized pyrimidine derivatives could serve as promising antimicrobial agents and warrant further investigation for drug development.

Data-Driven Modelling of Substituted Pyrimidine and Uracil-Based Derivatives Validated with Newly Synthesized and Antiproliferative Evaluated Compounds. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:9390.

Abstract
The pyrimidine heterocycle plays an important role in anticancer research. In particular, the pyrimidine derivative families of uracil show promise as structural scaffolds relevant to cervical cancer. This group of chemicals lacks data-driven machine learning quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) that allow for generalization and predictive capabilities in the search for new active compounds. To achieve this, a dataset of pyrimidine and uracil compounds from ChEMBL were collected and curated. A workflow was developed for data-driven machine learning QSAR using an intuitive dataset design and forwards selection of molecular descriptors. The model was thoroughly externally validated against available data. Blind validation was also performed by synthesis and antiproliferative evaluation of new synthesized uracil-based and pyrimidine derivatives. The most active compound among new synthesized derivatives, 2,4,5-trisubstituted pyrimidine was predicted with the QSAR model with differences of 0.02 compared to experimentally tested activity.

Novel Coumarin-Nucleobase Hybrids with Potential Anticancer Activity: Synthesis, In Vitro Cell-Based Evaluation, and Molecular Docking. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2024; 17:956. [PMID: 39065804 PMCID: PMC11279566 DOI: 10.3390/ph17070956] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2024] [Revised: 07/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
A new series of compounds planned by molecular hybridization of the nucleobases uracil and thymine, or the xanthine theobromine, with coumarins, and linked through 1,2,3-triazole heterocycles were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity against the human tumor cell lines: colon carcinoma (HCT116), laryngeal tumor cells (Hep-2), and lung carcinoma cells (A549). The hybrid compound 9a exhibited better activity in the series, showing an IC50 of 24.19 ± 1.39 μM against the HCT116 cells, with a selectivity index (SI) of 6, when compared to the cytotoxicity against the non-tumor cell line HaCat. The in silico search for pharmacological targets was achieved through molecular docking studies on all active compounds, which suggested that the synthesized compounds possess a high affinity to the Topoisomerase 1-DNA complex, supporting their antitumor activity. The in silico toxicity prediction studies suggest that the compounds present a low risk of causing theoretical mutagenic and tumorigenic effects. These findings indicate that molecular hybridization from natural derivative molecules is an interesting approach to seek new antitumor candidates.

Abstract
NHC-catalyzed [4+2] annulation of 2H-azirine-2-carbaldehydes with ketimines and isocyanates has been developed, providing straightforward synthetic protocols for constructing structurally intriguing pyrimido[1,2-a]indolediones and pyrimidinediones under mild conditions with excellent yields. This protocol can be used to synthesize the core skeleton of pharmaceutically important drugs and pyrimido[1,2-a]indoledione-containing natural products, making it potentially valuable for creating biologically active derivatives.

Abstract
Based on 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine-2-thiol hydrochloride a series of its novel S-substituted
derivatives including bi- and tricyclic heterosystems with a combination of azines and pyrazole cycles
in the molecule were synthesized. The preliminary biological screening has shown that the obtained
compounds have a pronounced plants growth-stimulating activity, which is a new property for these
heterosystems. This fact indicates the prospectivity of further development of synthesized systems for
the search for new plants growth stimulators.

Abstract
β-Lactam, commonly referred as azetidin-2-one, is a multifunctional building block for synthesizing β-amino ketones, γ-amino alcohols, and other compounds. Besides its well known antibiotic activity, this ring system exhibits a wide range of activities, attracting the attention of researchers. However, the structurally diverse β-lactam analogues as anticancer agents and their different molecular targets are poorly discussed. The purpose of this review is 3-fold: (1) to explore the molecular hybridization approach to design β-lactams hybrids as anticancer agents; (2) the structure activity relationship of the most active anticancer β-lactams and (3) to summarize their antitumor mechanisms.

Abstract
A convenient method for the regioselective synthesis of pyrimidine non-nucleoside analogs was developed. This study reports a novel and efficient method for the synthesis of a new type of N-substituted amino methylsulfanylpyrimidines and the corresponding pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines. This series of compounds was designed through the reaction of dimethyl N-cyanodithioiminocarbonate with 2-cyano-N'-(thiophen-2-yl-, furan-2-yl- and pyridin-4-ylmethylene)acetohydrazide and N'-(2-cyanoacetyl)arylsulfonohydrazides. The scope and limitation of the method are demonstrated. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of the synthesized compounds were also evaluated.
