Pyridine appended 2-hydrazinylthiazole derivatives: design, synthesis, in vitro and in silico antimycobacterial studies

An array of pyridine appended 2-hydrazinylthiazole derivatives has been synthesized to discover novel chemotherapeutic agents for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The drug-likeness of pyridine appended 2-hydrazinylthiazole derivatives was validated using the Lipinski and Veber rules. The designed thiazole molecules have been synthesized through Hantzsch thiazole methodologies. The in vitro antimycobacterial studies have been conducted using Luciferase reporter phage (LRP) assay. Out of thirty pyridine appended 2-hydrazinylthiazole derivatives, the compounds 2b, 3b, 5b, and 8b have exhibited good antimycobacterial activity against Mtb, an H37Rv strain with the minimum inhibitory concentration in the range of 6.40–7.14 μM. In addition, in vitro cytotoxicity of active molecules has been observed against Human Embryonic Kidney Cell lines (HEK293t) using MTT assay. The compounds 3b and 8b are nontoxic and their cell viability is 87% and 96.71% respectively. The in silico analyses of the pyridine appended 2-hydrazinylthiazole derivatives have been studied to find the mode of binding of the active compounds with KasA protein of Mtb. The active compounds showed a strong binding score (−5.27 to −6.23 kcal mol⁻¹).

Thirty novel pyridine-appended 2-hydrazinylthiazole derivatives have been synthesized and tested for their antimycobacterial activity against Mictrobactrium tuberculosis, H37Rv strain.

Dengue virus entry/fusion inhibition by small bioactive molecules; A critical review

Many flaviviruses are remarkable human pathogens that can be transmitted by mosquitoes and ticks. Despite the availability of vaccines for viral infections such as yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis, and tick-borne encephalitis, flavivirus-like dengue is still a significant life-threatening illness worldwide. To date, there is no antiviral treatment for dengue therapy. Industry and the research community have been taking ongoing steps to improve anti-flavivirus treatment to meet this clinical need. The successful activity has been involved in the inhibition of the virus entry fusion process in the last two decades. In this study, the latest understanding of the use of small molecules used as fusion inhibitors has been comprehensively presented. We summarized the structure, the process of fusion of dengue virus E protein (DENV E), and the amino acids involved in the fusion process. Special attention has been given to small molecules that allow conformational changes to DENV E protein viz. blocking the pocket of βOG, which is important for fusion.

Synthesis, molecular docking and ADME studies of thiazole-thiazolidinedione hybrids as antimicrobial agents

New thiazole-thiazolidinedione hybrids (5a-k) were efficiently synthesized and evaluated for their in-vitro antimicrobial activity against four fungal and bacterial strains. The chemical structures of the compounds were elucidated by FTIR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectral data. Most of the synthesized compounds were sensitive against gram positive, gram negative bacterial and fungal strains. Among the synthesized molecules, compounds 5h, and 5i exhibited promising inhibitory activity against all selected fungal strains and gram positive bacteria namely, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis. The molecular docking results predicted that the thiazole-thiazolidinedione derivatives bind to the active site protein ATP-binding pocket from E. coli, S. aureus and C. albicans with good interaction energy scores. Ct-DNA was used to evaluate the binding interactions of the selected compounds by means of absorption spectroscopy. To further characterize the drug-likeness and ADME properties were calculated using the Qikprop, the result of present study suggests that thiazole-thiazolidinedione hybrid could be an interesting approach for the design of new antimicrobial agents.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Synthesis, Modeling Study and Antioxidants Activity of New Heterocycles Derived from 4-Antipyrinyl-2-Chloroacetamidothiazoles

The present work reports the preparation of twelve new heterocyclic scaffolds containing an antipyrinyl-thiazole hybrid through the reaction of 4-antipyrinyl-2-chloroacetamido-thiazoles 1 and 6 with various types of nucleophiles, namely; ethyl thioglycolate, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, 2-mercaptobenzoxazole, ammonium thiocyanate, malononitrile, and salicylaldehyde. The constructed compounds were characterized by conventional spectroscopic techniques (IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass analysis). A DFT method (material studio package) was used to predict the geometry, bond lengths, bond angles, and dipole moments as well as other global chemical reactivities of the constructed antipyrinyl-thiazole compounds. Also, their semi-core pseudopods calculations (dspp) were carried out with DNP (double numerical basis sets plus polarization functional) to predict the properties of materials. In addition, the antioxidant activity of these antipyrinyl-thiazole scaffolds has been screened by the ABTS method. The results indicated that 2-(4-antipyrinylthiazolylamino)-5-substituitedbenzylidene-thiazol-4(5H)-ones 10b and 10c exhibited the best antioxidant activity with a percentage inhibition of 85.74% and 83.51%, respectively.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of 2-aminothiazole derivatives as antimycobacterial and antiplasmodial agents

A series of compounds derived from the 2-amino-4-(2-pyridyl) thiazole scaffold was synthesized and tested for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against the Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain, antiplasmodial activity against the chloroquine sensitive NF54 Plasmodium falciparum strain and cytotoxicity on a mammalian cell line. Optimal antimycobacterial activity was found with compounds with a 2-pyridyl ring at position 4 of the thiazole scaffold, a substituted phenyl ring at the 2-amino position, and an amide linker between the scaffold and the substituted phenyl. The antiplasmodial activity was best with compounds that had the phenyl ring substituted with hydrophobic electron withdrawing groups.

Synthesis of some new pyrazole-based 1,3-thiazoles and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles as anticancer agents

N-(4-(Pyrazol-4-yl)thiazol-2-yl)-N'-phenylthiourea derivative 2 was synthesized and then treated with variety of hydrazonoyl chlorides under basic condition at reflux to afford the corresponding 2-(4-(pyrazol-4-yl)thiazol-2-ylimino)-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives 6, 10a-e and 17a-e. Reaction of 2 with ethyl chloroacetate and with 3-chloro-2,4-pentanedione gave the thiazolidin-4-one 22 and 1,3-thiazole 25 derivatives, respectively. Condensation of thiazolidin-4-one 22 with aldehydes gave their 5-arylidene derivatives 23a-f. Most of the synthesized compounds were tested for anticancer activity against human hepatocelluar carcinoma HepG2, human breast cancer MCF-7 and human lung cancer A549. Their SAR was studied and variously affected by the electronic factor of electron donating and withdrawing groups. Many of the tested compounds showed moderate to high anticancer activity.

Recent developments and biological activities of thiazolidinone derivatives: a review

Thiazolidinone is considered as a biologically important active scaffold that possesses almost all types of biological activities. Successful introduction of ralitoline as a potent anti-convulsant, etozoline as a antihypertensive, pioglitazone as a hypoglycemic agent and thiazolidomycin activity against streptomyces species proved potential of thiazolidinone moiety. This diversity in the biological response profile has attracted the attention of many researchers to explore this skeleton to its multiple potential against several activities. This review is complementary to earlier reviews and aims to review the work reported on various biological activities of thiazolidinone derivatives from year 2000 to the beginning of 2011. Data are presented for active compounds, some of which have passed the preclinical testing stage.
