Synthesis and Biological Activity of New Hydrazones Based on N-Aminomorpholine

The data on the synthesis of N-aminomorpholine hydrazones are presented. It is shown that the interaction of N-aminomorpholine with functionally substituted benzaldehydes and 4-pyridinaldehyde in isopropyl alcohol leads to the formation of corresponding hydrazones. The structure of the synthesized compounds was studied by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy methods, including the COSY (1H-1H), HMQC (1H-13C) and HMBC (1H-13C) methodologies. The values of chemical shifts, multiplicity, and integral intensity of 1H and 13C signals in one-dimensional NMR spectra were determined. The COSY (1H-1H), HMQC (1H-13C), and HMBC (1H-13C) results revealed homo- and heteronuclear interactions, confirming the structure of the studied compounds. The antiviral, cytotoxic, and antimicrobial activity of some synthesized hydrazones were investigated. It is shown that 2-((morpholinoimino)methyl)benzoic acid has a pronounced viral inhibitory property, comparable in its activity to commercial drugs Tamiflu and Remantadine. A docking study was performed using the influenza virus protein models (1930 Swine H1 Hemagglutinin and Neuraminidase of 1918 H1N1 strain). The potential binding sites that are complementary with 2-((morpholinoimino)methyl)benzoic acid were found.

Syntheses, crystal structures and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 2-(benzyl-sulfan-yl)-5-[4-(di-methyl-amino)-phen-yl]-1,3,4-oxa-diazole and 2-[(2-chloro-6-fluoro-benz-yl)sulfan-yl]-5-[4-(di-methyl-amino)-phen-yl]-1,3,4-oxa-diazole

The title compounds were synthesized by alkyl-ation of 5-[(4-di-methyl-amino)-phen-yl]-1,3,4-oxa-diazole-2-thiol with benzyl chloride or 2-chloro-6-fluoro-benzyl chloride in the presence of potassium carbonate. The yields of 2-(benzyl-sulfan-yl)-5-[4-(di-methyl-amino)-phen-yl]-1,3,4-oxa-diazole, C₁₇H₁₇N₃OS (I), and 2-[(2-chloro-6-fluoro-benz-yl)sulfan-yl]-5-[4-(di-methyl-amino)-phen-yl]-1,3,4-oxa-diazole, C₁₇H₁₅ClFN₃OS (II), were 96 and 92%, respectively. In the crystal structures of (I) and (II), C-H⋯π inter-actions are observed between neighboring mol-ecules. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that H⋯H and H⋯C/C⋯H inter-actions make the most important contributions to the crystal packing.

Design and Synthesis of Novel Coumarin Conjugated Acetamides as Promising Anticancer Agents: An In Silico and In Vitro Approach

BACKGROUND

Coumarin and benzophenone possess a vast sphere of biological activities, whereas thiazoles display various pharmacological properties. Hence, present study focused on the incorporation of coumarin and thiazole core to the benzophenone skeleton to enhance the bioactivity, anticipating their interesting biological properties.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of the current work is the synthesis and biological evaluation of a novel series of coumarin fused thiazole derivatives.

METHODS

A novel series of coumarin conjugated thiazolyl acetamide hybrid derivatives were synthesized by a multistep reaction sequence and were characterized by the FT-IR, LCMS, and NMR spectral techniques. The newly synthesized compounds were screened for anti-cancer activity by in silico and in vitro methods. The cytotoxicity of the synthesized unique compounds was executed for two different cancer cell lines, MCF-7 (Breast cancer) and KB (Oral cancer), in comparison with standard paclitaxel by MTT assay.

RESULTS

The compound 7f is a potent motif with an acceptable range of IC₅₀ values, for anti-cancer activity, i.e., 63.54μg/ml and 55.67μg/ml, against the MCF-7 and KB cell lines, respectively. Molecule docking model revealed that this compound formed three conventional hydrogen bonds with the active sites of the amino acids, MET 769, ARG 817, and LYS 721.

CONCLUSION

Compound 7f with two methyl groups on the phenoxy ring and one 4-position methoxy group on the benzoyl ring, showed a significant cytotoxic effect. An advantageous level of low toxicity against normal cell line (L292) by MTT assay was determined.

Synthesis and DNA binding of novel bioactive thiazole derivatives pendent to N-phenylmorpholine moiety

An easy access to a series of N-phenylmorpholine derivatives linked with thiazole or formazan moieties were achieved using simple experimental procedure under conventional and microwaves irradiation conditions. The reaction of 2-(N-phenylmorpholine)ethylidene)hydrazine-1-carbothioamide derivatives and [1-(4-morpholin-4-yl-phenyl)-ethylidene]-hydrazine with a variety of hydrazonoyl chlorides or phenacyl bromide derivatives afforded the corresponding thiazoles or N-substitutedhydrazino-derivatives linked to N-phenylmorpholine moiety in good to excellent yields. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were fully emphasized and characterized by spectroscopic as well as elemental analyses. The mode of binding of some selected compounds with SS-DNA was evaluated using UV-Vis absorption, and viscosity measurements. The results showed intercalation binding mode of most of the tested compounds. Both antimicrobial and anti-cancer activities have been studied for some selected compounds from synthetic derivatives. Their results showed a remarkable efficacy for some derivatives against both examined microbes and cancer cells.
