Abbasi F, Sardarian AR. Efficient base- and ligand-free palladium catalysed O-arylation of phenols in choline chloride:triethanolamine as a reusable deep eutectic solvent. ROYAL SOCIETY OPEN SCIENCE 2024; 11:240045. [PMID: 39100160 PMCID: PMC11295942 DOI: 10.1098/rsos.240045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
In this paper, we present a novel and sustainable approach using choline chloride:triethanolamine as a green, efficient and reusable deep eutectic solvent (DES) for Pd-catalysed O-arylation reactions with Pd/BaSO4 (10%). By using the unique properties of DESs, we successfully achieved C-O bond formation without the need for additional solvents, bases and ligands. This solvent/catalyst system ([ChCl][TEA]2) functioned as a dual catalyst and solvent system, enabling fast and environmentally friendly C-O bond formation from phenol derivatives and electron-deficient aryl halides, leading to remarkable yields under mild reaction conditions. To identify and characterize this DES, we employed differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, refractive index, viscosity, the potential of hydrogen (pH) and conductivity measurements. One of the remarkable advantages of this DES system is its exceptional stability. This solvent/catalyst system exhibited high stability throughout the reaction cycles, showing no significant loss of activity. As a result, this DES and catalyst (Pd/BaSO4 (10%)) can be easily recycled and re-used for up to three consecutive cycles, making it an economically and environmentally attractive option for organic reactions. Our approach offers several key benefits, including simple catalyst preparation, quick reaction times and excellent production efficiency.

Abstract
Pyranopyrazole derivatives have a vital role in the class of organic compounds because of their broad spectrum of biological and pharmacological importance. Our current goal is the [3 + 3] cycloaddition of benzoyl isothiocyanate and pyrazolone 1 to undergo oxidation cyclization, producing pyrazoloxadiazine 3. The diol 5 was obtained as a condensation of two equivalents of 1 with thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde in acetic acid above the sodium acetate mixture. When the condensation was carried out in piperidine under fusion, unsaturated ketone 4 was obtained. The pyrazolo pyran derivative 11 resulted from the [3 + 3] cycloaddition of 1 and cinnamic acid, while the Pyrone derivative was prepared by acylation of 12 with two equivalents of acetic anhydride. Phthalic anhydride undergoes arylation using zinc chloride as a catalyst. The cyclic keto acid 23 was synthesized by the action of succinic anhydride on 12 in the acetic medium, while the latter reacted with cinnamic acid, leading to pyrazole derivative 24. All of these reactions were through the Michael reaction mechanism. All the tested compounds showed good antimicrobial activity against pathogenic microorganisms; newly synthesized compounds were also screened for their antioxidant activity. Rational studies were carried out by the ABTs method to allow a broader choice of activities. In addition, similar off-compounds were conducted. Molecular docking studies with the CB-Dock server and MD simulations were created with the default settings of the Solution Builder on the CHARMM-GUI server at 150 nm. A good correlation was obtained between the experimental results and the theoretical bioavailability predictions using POM theory.

Abstract
A new family of pyrazole-based compounds (1–15) was synthesized and characterized using different physicochemical analyses, such as FTIR, UV-Visible, 1H, 13C NMR, and ESI/LC-MS. The compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antifungal and antibacterial activities against several fungal and bacterial strains. The results indicate that some compounds showed excellent antibacterial activity against E. coli, S. aureus, C. freundii, and L. monocytogenes strains. In contrast, none of the compounds had antifungal activity. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) map analyses and inductive and mesomeric effect studies were performed to study the relationship between the chemical structure of our compounds and the biological activity. In addition, molecular docking and virtual screening studies were carried out to rationalize the antibacterial findings to characterize the modes of binding of the most active compounds to the active pockets of NDM1 proteins.

Abstract
β-Lactam antibiotics account for about 60% of all produced antibiotics. Due to a high activity and minimal side effects, they are the most commonly used class of antibacterial drugs for the treatment of various infectious diseases of humans and animals, including severe hospital infections. However, the emergence of bacteria resistant to β-lactams has led to the clinical inefficiency of these antibiotics, and as a result, their use in medicine has been limited. The search for new effective ways for overcoming the resistance to β-lactam antibiotics is an essential task. The major mechanism of bacterial resistance is the synthesis of β-lactamases (BLs) that break the antibiotic β-lactam ring. Here, we review specific inhibitors of serine β-lactamases and metallo-β-lactamases and discuss approaches for creating new inhibitors that would prolong the "life" of β-lactams.

The Role of the Ω-Loop in Regulation of the Catalytic Activity of TEM-Type β-Lactamases. Biomolecules 2019; 9:biom9120854.

Abstract
Bacterial resistance to β-lactams, the most commonly used class of antibiotics, poses a global challenge. This resistance is caused by the production of bacterial enzymes that are termed β-lactamases (βLs). The evolution of serine-class A β-lactamases from penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) is related to the formation of the Ω-loop at the entrance to the enzyme’s active site. In this loop, the Glu166 residue plays a key role in the two-step catalytic cycle of hydrolysis. This residue in TEM–type β-lactamases, together with Asn170, is involved in the formation of a hydrogen bonding network with a water molecule, leading to the deacylation of the acyl–enzyme complex and the hydrolysis of the β-lactam ring of the antibiotic. The activity exhibited by the Ω-loop is attributed to the positioning of its N-terminal residues near the catalytically important residues of the active site. The structure of the Ω-loop of TEM-type β-lactamases is characterized by low mutability, a stable topology, and structural flexibility. All of the revealed features of the Ω-loop, as well as the mechanisms related to its involvement in catalysis, make it a potential target for novel allosteric inhibitors of β-lactamases.

Abstract
We present a novel computational ligand-based virtual screening approach with scaffold hopping capabilities for the identification of novel inhibitors of β-lactamases which confer bacterial resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. The structures of known β-lactamase inhibitors were used as query ligands, and a virtual in silico screening a database of 8 million drug-like compounds was performed in order to select the ligands with similar shape and charge distribution. A set of numerical descriptors was used such as chirality, eigen spectrum of matrices of interatomic distances and connectivity together with higher order moment invariants that showed their efficiency in the field of pattern recognition but have not yet been employed in drug discovery. The developed scaffold-hopping approach was applied for the discovery of analogues of four allosteric inhibitors of serine β-lactamases. After a virtual in silico screening, the effect of two selected ligands on the activity of TEM type β-lactamase was studied experimentally. New non-β-lactam inhibitors were found that showed more effective inhibition of β-lactamases compared to query ligands.

Abstract
β-lactams are one of the most common antimicrobials used to treat bacterial infections. However, bacterial resistance has compromised their efficacy, mainly due to the β-lactamase enzyme production. To overcome this resistance, β-lactamase inhibitors can be used in association with these antimicrobials. Herein, we analyzed the structural characteristics of β-lactamases and their interactions with classical inhibitors, such as clavulanic acid (CA), sulbactam (SB) and tazobactam (TZ) to gain insights into resistance. The homology models of five class A β-lactamases, namely CARB-3, IMI-1, SFO-1, SHV-5 and TEM-10, were constructed and validated and revealed an overall 3D structural conservation, but with significant differences in the electrostatic potential maps, especially at important regions in the catalytic site. Molecular dockings of CA, SB and TZ with these enzymes revealed a covalent bond with the S70 in all complexes, except Carb-3 which is in agreement with experimental data reported so far. This is likely related to the less voluminous active site of Carb-3 model. Although few specific contacts were observed in the β-lactamase-inhibitor complexes, all compounds interacted with the residues in positions 73, 130, 132, 236 and 237. Therefore, this study provides new perspectives for the design of innovative compounds with broad-spectrum inhibitory profiles against β-lactamases.
