Abstract
Chalcone is a simple naturally occurring α,β-unsaturated ketone with biological importance, which can also be easily synthesized in laboratories by reaction between two aromatic scaffolds. In plants, chalcones occur as polyphenolic compounds of different frameworks which are bioactive molecules that have been in traditional medicinal practice for many years. Chalcone-based lead molecules have been developed, possessing varied potentials such as antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, anti-oxidant, antidiabetic, antihyperurecemic, and anti-ulcer effects. Chalcones contribute considerable fragments to give important heterocyclic molecules with therapeutic utilities targeting various diseases. These characteristic features have made chalcone a topic of interest among researchers and have attracted investigations into this widely applicable structure. This review highlights the extensive exploration carried out on the synthesis, biotransformations, chemical reactions, hybridization, and pharmacological potentials of chalcones, and aims to provide an extensive, thorough, and critical review of their importance, with emphasis on their properties, chemistry, and biomedical applications to boost future investigations into this potential scaffold in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
An ideal vehicle with a high transfection efficiency is crucial for gene delivery. In this study, a type of cationic carbon dot (CCD) known as APCDs were first prepared with arginine (Arg) and pentaethylenehexamine (PEHA) as precursors and conjugated with oleic acid (OA) for gene delivery. By tuning the mass ratio of APCDs to OA, APCDs-OA conjugates, namely, APCDs-0.5OA, APCDs-1.0OA, and APCDs-1.5OA were synthesized. All three amphiphilic APCDs-OA conjugates show high affinity to DNA through electrostatic interactions. APCDs-0.5OA exhibit strong binding with small interfering RNA (siRNA). After being internalized by Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK 293) and osteosarcoma (U2OS) cells, they could distribute in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus. With APCDs-OA conjugates as gene delivery vehicles, plasmid DNA (pDNA) that encodes the gene for the green fluorescence protein (GFP) can be successfully delivered in both HEK 293 and U2OS cells. The GFP expression levels mediated by APCDs-0.5OA and APCDs-1.0OA are ten times greater than that of PEI in HEK 293 cells. Furthermore, APCDs-0.5OA show prominent siRNA transfection efficiency, which is proven by the significantly downregulated expression of FANCA and FANCD2 proteins upon delivery of FANCA siRNA and FANCD2 siRNA into U2OS cells. In conclusion, our work demonstrates that conjugation of CCDs with a lipid structure such as OA significantly improves the gene transfection efficiency, providing a new idea about the designation of nonviral carriers in gene delivery systems.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 309:123770. [PMID: 38157746 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2023.123770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
In this study, the complexation of potential chemo-therapeutic antibacterial drug, ciprofloxacin (CIP) with varying concentrations of surface active compounds (SACs) i.e., (N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-1-dodecanaminium bromide (12Cho.Br) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) has been studied. Multispectroscopic techniques were exploited to carry out the study. The higher binding constant (Kb) value for CIP-CTAB than CIP-12Cho.Br obtained from fluorescence data revealed stronger binding of CTAB than 12Cho.Br, owing to the stronger hydrophobic-hydrophobic interaction betweeen CIP and CTAB compared to CIP and 12Cho.Br. The time resolve fluorescence decay shows changes in average lifetime (τavg) with the increasing concentration of 12Cho.Br and CTAB. The changes in τavg suggests that complex formation is taking place between CIP and 12Cho.Br / CTAB. Further, the formation of micelles by 12Cho.Br / CTAB and the effect of alkyl chain length was studied by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential to confirm the drug complexation with 12Cho.Br and CTAB. The antibacterial activity has been performed for CIP and 12Cho.Br and CTAB. It was observed that in presence of lower concentrations of 12Cho.Br/ CTAB, the activity of the drug increased. The activity was also found cationic alkyl chain length dependent. Moreover, in-vitro cytotoxicity of CIP and its combinations with 12Cho.Br and CTAB was performed using MTT assay on HEK293 (Human embryonic kidney cells).

Abstract
Fungal infections can be serious or life threatening in severe cases, and the need to discover and find novel antifungal agents persists. Chalcones are plant-derived aromatic compounds that have been appealing synthons for pharmaceutical industry as they have good anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. Although there are few structure-activity relationship studies on chalcones, studies that link the structural features of these compounds to their mode of action are scant. Thus, in this study, we aim to clarify the relationship between chalcone derivatives and their cellular target within the yeast cell Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We observed that some chalcone compounds lead to disruption of cell membrane and cause ion leakage out of the cell. Moreover, chalcones alter the biochemical composition of yeast cells detectable by FTIR spectroscopy and bind to the DNA as shown by our titration experiments based on UV-Vis absorbance spectroscopy. Thus, their interaction with the DNA may be the major impact of these compounds on yeast cells.

Abstract
Standard amino acids have an asymmetric α-carbon atom to which -COOH, -NH2, -H, and -R groups are bonded. Among them, glycine is the simplest (R = -H) with no asymmetric carbon, and other natural amino acids are C-substituted of glycine. Here, we have designed and made a green synthesis of some new N-substituted glycine derivatives with R-(NH)CH2-COOH formula, where R is flexible and hydrophobic with different chain lengths and benches of the type propyl, butyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, pentyl, isopentyl, tert-pentyl, hexyl, 2-aminoheptyl, and octyl. These glycine derivatives were characterized by recording their melting points and FT-IR, mass, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectra. DFT studies revealed that 2-aminoheptyl glycine had the highest electronegativity value and can thus act as a good bidentate ligand for the metal centers. ADME comparative results and bioavailability radars indicated that both octyl- and 2-aminoheptyl glycine had the most lipophilicity, making them good agents in cell passing. Furthermore, lipophilicity determination showed that octyl glycine was the best and propylgly was more soluble than others. Based on solubility, lipophilicity, and dipole moment values, propyl- and 2-aminoheptyl-glycine were considered for bio-macromolecular interaction studies. Thus, the interaction of these two agents with DNA and HSA was studied using absorption spectroscopy and circular dichroism techniques. Due to the presence of the R-amine group, they can interact with the DNA by H-binding and hydrophobicity, while electrostatic mode could not be ruled out. Meanwhile, molecular docking studies revealed that octyl- and 2-aminoheptyl glycine had the highest negative docking energy, which reflects their higher tendency to interact with DNA. The DNA binding affinity of two candidate AAs was determined by viscosity measurement and fluorescence emission recording, which confirms that groove binding occurs. Also, the toxicity of these synthesized amino acid derivates was tested against the human foreskin fibroblast (HFF) cell line. They showed IC50 values within the range of 127-344 μM after 48 h with the highest toxicity for 2-aminoheptyl glycine.

Abstract
The main objective of the present study is to investigate the molecular structure and DNA binding interaction of the tyrosyl-lysyl-threonine (YKT) tripeptide, which has anticancer, antioxidant and analgesic properties, using various in silico (MD, QM, molecular docking), spectroscopic (UV, FT-IR, FTIR-ATR, Raman, gel electrophoresis) and in vitro (MCF-7 and HeLa cancer cell lines and BEAS-2B cell line) methods. The optimized geometry, vibrational wavenumbers, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), natural bond orbital (NBO) and HOMO-LUMO (highest occupied molecular orbital- lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) calculations were carried out with Density Functional Theory (DFT) using B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) basis set to indicate conformational, vibrational and intramolecular charge transfer characteristics. The assignment of all fundamental theoretical vibration wavenumbers was performed using potential energy distribution analysis (PED). DNA is a significant pharmacological target of drugs in several diseases such as cancer. For this reason, molecular docking calculation was used to elucidate the binding and interaction between YKT tripeptide and DNA at the atomic level. Also, the dynamic behaviors of YKT and DNA was examined using MD simulations. Besides, the interaction of YKT with DNA was experimentally examined by UV titration method and agarose gel electrophoresis method. Experimental results showed that YKT was intercalatively and electrostatically bound to CT-DNA (Calf thymus DNA) and cleavage pBR322 DNA in the presence of H2O2. The pharmacokinetic profile of YKT was also obtained. Cytotoxic effect of YKT was evaluated on MCF-7, HeLa and BEAS-2B cell lines. Hence, these studies about YKT tripeptide may pave the way for the development of various cancer drugs. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Through the condensation of isatin (indoline-2, 3-dione) and aniline in a 1:1 ratio, a Schiff base ligand was synthesized and characterized via (1H-NMR, mass, IR, UV-Vis) spectra. Elemental analyses, spectroscopy (1H-NMR, mass, UV-Vis), magnetic susceptibility, molar conductivity, mass spectra, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and thermal analysis have all been used to characterize a series of Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) metal complexes derived from the titled ligand. The metal-to-ligand ratio is 1:1, according to the analytical data. The Schiff base ligand displayed bidentate behavior with NO coordination sites when it bonded to metal ions, as seen by the IR spectra. The magnetic moment measurement and UV-Vis spectral investigation showed the octahedral geometry of the Cr(III), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II) complexes, whereas they suggested the tetrahedral geometry of the Mn(II), Cu(II), and Cd(II) complexes. The thermal analysis study confirmed the presence of both hydrated and coordinated water molecules in all the compounds, except for the Mn(II) complex, and showed that the complexes decomposed in three or five decomposition steps leaving the corresponding metal oxide as a residue. The ligand and its metal complexes' antibacterial efficacy were evaluated. The findings showed that the metal complexes had stronger antibacterial properties than the ligand alone. The ligand and its metal complexes' anticancer properties were also investigated. A DFT investigation is also reported to gather information regarding the electronic features of the ligand and its metal complexes. Finally, drug-likeness and ADME characteristics were also calculated as parameters.

Abstract
Within the scope of this study, new 2-{2-[(5-nitrothiophen-2-yl)methylene]hydrazinyl}thiazole derivatives (2a-j) were synthesized and investigated for their potential anticancer and enzyme inhibition activities. Spectroscopic techniques were used to determine the structures of substances. The anticancer activities of compounds were detected in A549 human lung carcinoma and L929 murine fibroblast cell lines, determining cytotoxicity, apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane integrity, and caspase-3 activation. Compounds 2b bearing 4-nitrophenyl, 2c bearing phenyl, and 2d bearing 4-cyanophenyl moieties were specified with high anticancer activity, acting through an apoptotic pathway with an apoptosis ratio of 9.61%-15.59%. Mitochondrial membrane depolarization was determined to be 25.53% and 22.33% for compounds 2b and 2c, respectively. Furthermore, compound 2c exhibited excellent caspase-3 activation. A molecular docking study was realized with compound 2c on the caspase-3 enzyme. Furthermore, the electronic characteristics of the active compounds were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31G (d, p) level. The frontier molecular orbital energy and atomic net charges were examined.

An oxadiazole derivative 2 was prepared by condensation reaction through cyclization of semicarbazone in the presence of bromine and the structural confirmation was supported by 1 H and 13 C NMR, FT-IR spectroscopy, and LC-MS spectrometry. Its sensing ability was examined towards Ni2+ ion with binding constant 1.04 x 105 over the other suitable metal cations (Ca2+ , Co2+ , Cr3+ , Ag+ , Pb2+ , Fe3+ , Mg2+ , and K+ ) by UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopic studies and the minimum concentration of Ni2+ ion with LOD was found to be 9.4μM. Job's plot method gives the binding stoichiometry ratio of Ni2+ ion vs oxadiazole derivative 2 to be 2:1. Furthermore, the intercalative binding mode of oxadiazole derivative 2 with Calf Thymus DNA was supported by UV-Vis, fluorescence, viscosity, cyclic voltammetry, time-resolved fluorescence, and circular dichroism measurements. The molecular docking result gives the binding score for oxadiazole derivative 2 to be -6.5 kcal/mol, which further confirms the intercalative interaction. In addition, the anti-fungal activity of oxadiazole derivative 2 was also screened against fungal strains (C. albicans, C. glabrata, and C. tropicalis) by broth dilution and disc diffusion method. In the antioxidant studies, the oxadiazole derivative 2 showed potential scavenging activity against DPPH and H2 O2 free radicals.

Abstract
The inhibitory effects of 2-thiazolyl hydrazones on monoamine oxidase enzymes are known for a long time. In this study, a new series of 2-thiazolyl hydrazone derivatives were synthesized starting from 6-methoxy-2-naphthaldehyde. All of the synthesized compounds were investigated in terms of their monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitory effects and significant results were found. The results showed that compound 2j potently inhibited MAO-A and MAO-B, while compound 2t strongly and selectively inhibited MAO-B compared to standard drugs. Compounds 2k and 2q exhibited selective and satisfying inhibition on MAO-B. In the aromatase inhibition studies of the compounds, it was determined that compounds 2q and 2u had high inhibitory properties. Molecular docking studies on MAO-A, MAO-B, and aromatase enzymes were carried out for the aforementioned compounds. Additionally, molecular dynamics simulation was studied for compound 2q on MAO-B and aromatase complexes. Finally, the Field-based QSAR study was developed and the structure-activity relationship (SAR) was explained. For the first time, dual inhibitors on MAO and aromatase enzyme were investigated together. The aim of this approach is for finding the potential agents that do not cause the cognitive disorders and may even treat neurodegenerative symptoms, thus, the aim was reached successfully.

Abstract
Cancer is a condition caused by many mechanisms (genetic, immune, oxidation, and inflammatory). Anticancer therapy aims to destroy or stop the growth of cancer cells. Resistance to treatment is theleading cause of the inefficiency of current standard therapies. Targeted therapies are the most effective due to the low number of side effects and low resistance. Among the small molecule natural compounds, flavonoids are of particular interest for theidentification of new anticancer agents. Chalcones are precursors to all flavonoids and have many biological activities. The anticancer activity of chalcones is due to the ability of these compounds to act on many targets. Natural chalcones, such as licochalcones, xanthohumol (XN), panduretin (PA), and loncocarpine, have been extensively studied and modulated. Modification of the basic structure of chalcones in order to obtain compounds with superior cytotoxic properties has been performed by modulating the aromatic residues, replacing aromatic residues with heterocycles, and obtaining hybrid molecules. A huge number of chalcone derivatives with residues such as diaryl ether, sulfonamide, and amine have been obtained, their presence being favorable for anticancer activity. Modification of the amino group in the structure of aminochalconesis always favorable for antitumor activity. This is why hybrid molecules of chalcones with different nitrogen hetercycles in the molecule have been obtained. From these, azoles (imidazole, oxazoles, tetrazoles, thiazoles, 1,2,3-triazoles, and 1,2,4-triazoles) are of particular importance for the identification of new anticancer agents.

Abstract
Latest progress in the liquid crystal (LC) field related to azo molecules incorporated into natural product- based moieties for the improvement of LC texture and mesomeric phases has received great interest among researchers. A LC containing natural product-based moieties i.e. menthol, kojic acid, cholesterol and chalcone with stable azo and azobenzene scaffolds with specific optical tunability, has been widely used in photo-active materials such as Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), LC films, smart windows and other devices. This review discusses the influence of azobenzene, a renowned photo-responsive and stable LC scaffold, in mesogenic phases due to photo-isomerization and optical switching. The incorporation of mesomeric phases of natural product moieties to azo molecules has improved the properties of LC, i.e, from the nematic phase to the smectic phase with proper magnetic field alignment. Natural product-based LC can be useful in numerous applications, especially practical electronic or optic devices such as optical image storage, display devices, solar cells, optical switching.

Abstract
Chalcones belong to the flavonoid class of phenolic compounds. They form one of the largest groups of bioactive natural products. The potential anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antiparasitic properties of naturally occurring chalcones, and their unique chemical structural features inspired the synthesis of numerous chalcone derivatives. In fact, structural features of chalcones are easy to construct from simple aromatic compounds, and it is convenient to perform structural modifications to generate functionalized chalcone derivatives. Many of these synthetic analogs were shown to possess similar bioactivities as their natural counterparts, but often with an enhanced potency and reduced toxicity. This review article aims to demonstrate how bioinspired synthesis of chalcone derivatives can potentially introduce a new chemical space for exploitation for new drug discovery, justifying the title of this article. However, the focus remains on critical appraisal of synthesized chalcones and their derivatives for their bioactivities, linking to their interactions at the biomolecular level where appropriate, and revealing their possible mechanisms of action.

Abstract
N-formyl pyrazoline derivatives (3a-3l) were designed and synthesized via Michael addition reaction through cyclization of chalcones with hydrazine hydrate in presence of formic acid. The structural elucidation of N-formyl pyrazoline derivatives was carried out by various spectroscopic techniques such as 1H, 13C NMR, FT-IR, UV-visible spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. Anticancer activity of the pyrazoline derivatives (3a-3l) was evaluated against human lung cancer (A549), fibrosarcoma cell lines (HT1080) and human primary normal lung cells (HFL-1) by MTT assay. The results of anticancer activity showed that potent analogs 3b and 3d exhibited promising activity against A549 (IC50 = 12.47 ± 1.08 and 14.46 ± 2.76 µM) and HT1080 (IC50 = 11.40 ± 0.66 and 23.74 ± 13.30 µM) but low toxic against the HFL-1 (IC50 = 116.47 ± 43.38 and 152.36 ± 22.18 µM). The anticancer activity of potent derivatives (3b and 3d) against A549 cancer cell line was further confirmed by flow cytometry based approach. DNA binding interactions of the pyrazoline derivatives 3b and 3d have been carried out with calf thymus DNA (Ct-DNA) using absorption, fluorescence and viscosity measurements, circular dichroism and cyclic voltammetry. Antioxidant potential of N-formyl pyrazoline derivatives (3a-3l) has been also estimated through DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) free radical and H2O2. Results revealed that all the compounds exhibited significant antioxidant activity. In silico molecular modelling and ADMET properties of pyrazoline derivatives were also studied using PyRx software against topoisomerase II receptor with PDB ID: 1ZXM to explore their best hits. MD simulation of 3b and 3d was also carried out with topoisomerase II for structure-function correlation in a protein. HuTopoII inhibitory activity of the analogs (3a-3l) was examined by relaxation assay at varying concentrations 100-1000 µM.

Abstract
Owing to the growing demand for compelling antimicrobial agents, chalcones and
their heterocyclic derivatives have engrossed prodigious attention of medicinal chemists as an
effective clinical template for the synthesis of such agents on account of their structural diversity
and molecular flexibility. Chalcones are considered as a fortunate scaffold in the field of
both synthetic as well as natural product chemistry. They are reflected as a remarkable section
of logically occurring pharmacophores that possess a comprehensive scale of biological activities,
such as anti-cancer, anti-malarial, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory, rendering them
with a high degree of assortment and noble therapeutic profile. They act as a crucial intermediate
for the synthesis of novel heterocyclic skeletons holding biodynamic behavior. This
review emphasizes on different aspects of chalcones including their natural sources, recent
synthetic methodologies and evaluation of their anti-microbial potential. It is expected as a persuasive compilation on
chalcones that may benefit the experts to design potent and less toxic chalcone referents as medicinal agents.
