Synthesis and antimycobacterial screening of new N-(4-(5-aryl-3-(5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)phenyl)-4-amide derivatives

Efficient synthetic access to novel indolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline-based heterocycles

BACKGROUND

This paper showed the synthetic capability of the indolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline nucleus to be provided as an excellent precursor for the synthesis of various heterocyclic compounds. These synthetic routes proceed via the formation of 3-(6H-indolo[2,3-b]quinoxalin-6-yl)propane hydrazide (2). The carbohydrazide 2 and its reactions with different reagents give five and six-membered rings, such as 1,3,4-thiadiazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazole, 1,2,4-triazole, and 1,2,4-triazine.

METHODS

All chemicals used in the current study were of analytical grade. Melting points were determined using an APP Digital ST 15 melting point apparatus and were uncorrected. FT-IR spectra were recorded on a Pye-Unicam SP3-100 and Shimadzu-408 spectrophotometers in KBr pellets and given in (cm-1) KBr. The NMR spectra were detected by a Bruker AV-400 spectrometer (400 MHz for 1H, 100 MHz for 13C and 40.55 MHz for 15N), Institute of Organic Chemistry, Karlsruhe, Germany. Chemical shifts were expressed as δ (ppm) with TMS as an internal reference. Mass spectrometry was provided on a Varian MAT 312 instrument in EI mode (70 eV).

RESULTS

The target compounds were obtained, and their structures were completely elucidated by various spectral and elemental analyses (Ft-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and mass spectrometry).

CONCLUSION

The current work showed a view of the reactivity of the carbohydrazide group. The carbohydrazide 2 was obtained from the hydrazinolysis of carboethoxy compound 1 and exploited as a key intermediate to synthesize heterocyclic compounds with different rings.

Anti-tuberculosis activity and its structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of oxadiazole derivatives: A key review

With the increasing number of cases of inactive and drug-resistance tuberculosis, there is an urgent need to develop new potent molecules set for fighting this brutal disease. Medicinal chemistry concerns the discovery, the development, the identification, and the interpretation of the mode of action of biologically active compounds at the molecular level. Molecules bearing oxadiazoles are one such class that could be considered to satisfy this need. Oxadiazole regioisomers have been investigated in drug discovery programs for their capacity to go about as powerful linkers and as pharmacophoric highlights. Oxadiazoles can go about as bioisosteric substitutions for the hydrazide moiety which can be found in first-line anti-TB drugs, and some have been likewise answered to cooperate with more current anti-TB targets. This present review summarizes the current innovations of oxadiazole-based derivatives with potential antituberculosis activity and bacteria discussing various aspects of structure-activity relationship (SAR).

Recent Development on Importance of Heterocyclic Amides as Potential Bioactive Molecules: A Review

Background:

Heterocyclic compounds are an integral part of the chemical and life sciences and constitute a considerable quantum of the modern research that is being currently pursued throughout the world.

Methods:

This review was prepared by collecting the available literature reports on various databases and an extract was prepared for each report after thorough study and compiling the recent literature reports on heterocyclic amides from 2007 to 2018.

Results:

This review summarizes the bio-potential of heterocyclic amides as antimicrobial, anticancer, anti-tubercular and antimalarial agents which would be very promising in the field of medicinal chemistry.

Conclusion:

A wide variety of heterocyclic amides have already been reported and some are currently being used as active medicaments for the treatment of disease. Still, the research groups are focusing on the development of newer heterocyclic amide derivatives with better efficacy, potency and lesser side effects. This area has got the tremendous potential to come up with new chemical entities of medicinal importance.
