Abstract
Aim: By keeping in aspects, the pharmacological potential of heterocyclic compounds, pyrimidine-based compounds were designed, synthesized and evaluated for α-amylase inhibitory potential.Materials & methods: Five new series 1a-l, 2a-d, 3a-d, 4a-d and 5a-d of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroprimidine-5-carboxylate derivatives were designed by de novo method by taking Alogliptin as reference compound. Here in we describe synthesis and characterization of compounds as potential α-amylase inhibitor.Results: Structure activity relationship (SAR), in vitro analysis and molecular modelling approaches generate compounds 1 h, 1i, 1k and 4c as potential lead with good α-amylase inhibitory selection. However, compound 1k failed the criteria of optimization as drug lead by ADME studies while all other compounds showed optimum range for all in silico ADME parameters.Conclusion: Therefore, these compounds can serve as potential lead candidate in developing anti-diabetic therapy.

Abstract
Neurodegeneration is a gradual decay process leading to the depletion of neurons in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, ultimately resulting in cognitive dysfunctions and the deterioration of brain functions, alongside a decline in motor skills and behavioral capabilities. Neurodegenerative disorders (NDs) impose a substantial socio-economic strain on society, aggravated by the advancing age of the world population and the absence of effective remedies, predicting a negative future. In this context, the urgency of discovering viable therapies is critical and, despite significant efforts by medicinal chemists in developing potential drug candidates and exploring various small molecules as therapeutics, regrettably, a truly effective treatment is yet to be found. Nitrogen heterocyclic compounds, and particularly those containing the indole nucleus, which has emerged as privileged scaffold, have attracted particular attention for a variety of pharmacological applications. This review analyzes the rational design strategy adopted by different research groups for the development of anti-neurodegenerative indole-based compounds which have the potential to modulate various molecular targets involved in NDs, with reference to the most recent advances between 2018 and 2023.

Abstract
A novel series of 1-(5-((6-nitroquinazoline-4-yl)thio)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-3-phenylurea derivatives 8 were designed and synthesized to evaluate their cytotoxic potencies. The structures of these obtained compounds were thoroughly characterized by IR, 1H, and 13C NMR, MASS spectroscopy and elemental analysis methods. Additionally, their in vitro anticancer activities were investigated using the MTT assay against A549 (human lung cancer), MDA-MB231 (human triple-negative breast cancer), and MCF7 (human hormone-dependent breast cancer). Etoposide was used as a reference marketed drug for comparison. Among the compounds tested, compounds 8b and 8c demonstrated acceptable antiproliferative activity, particularly against MCF7 cells. Considering the potential VEGFR-2 inhibitor potency of these compounds, a molecular docking study was performed for the most potent compound, 8c, to determine its probable interactions. Furthermore, computational investigations, including molecular dynamics, frontier molecular orbital analysis, Fukui reactivity descriptor, electrostatic potential surface, and in silico ADME evaluation for all compounds were performed to illustrate the structure-activity relationship (SAR).

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder affecting the central nervous system. Current drugs for AD have limited effectiveness and often come with side effects. Consequently, there is a pressing need to develop new, safe, and more effective treatments for Alzheimer's disease. In this work, two novel benzil-hydrazone compounds, abbreviated 2-ClMHB and 2-ClBHB, were synthesized for the first time by refluxing the benzil with 2-Chloro phenyl hydrazine and they have been tested for their in vitro anti-cholinesterase activities and in silico acetyl and butyryl enzymes inhibition. The resulting products were characterized using UV-Vis and IR spectroscopy, while the single-crystal X-ray diffraction investigation was successful in establishing the structures of these compounds. DFT calculations have been successfully made to correlate the experimental data. According to biological studies, the synthesized hydrazones significantly inhibited both butyrylcholinesterase (2-ClMHB: 20.95 ± 1.29 µM and 2-ClBHB: 31.21 ± 1.50 µM) and acetylcholinesterase (2-ClMHB: 21.80 ± 1.10 µM and 2-ClBHB: 10.38 ± 1.27 µM). Moreover, molecular docking was also employed to locate the molecule with the optimum interaction and stability as well as to explain the experimental findings. The compound's dynamic nature, binding interaction, and protein-ligand stability were investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Analyzing parameters such as RMSD and RMSF indicated that the compound remained stable throughout the 100 ns MD simulation. Finally, the drugs displayed high oral bioavailability, as per projected ADME and pharmacokinetic parameters.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Aim: Design and synthesis of a series of hydrazone-sulfonate hybrids, 5a-r. Methodology: The inhibitory properties of the synthesized compounds against acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase were evaluated using donepezil as the reference standard. Results & conclusion: Compound 5e was identified as the most potent inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (IC50 = 9.30 μM), and compound 5i was the most potent inhibitor of butyrylcholinesterase (IC50 = 11.82 μM). To confirm the safety of the most potent hits at the used doses, toxicological bioassays were conducted. Molecular docking was performed and the tested derivatives were found to fit well in the active sites of both enzymes. This study provides valuable insights into the potential of hydrazone-sulfonate hybrids as drug candidates.

Abstract
In this study, new Schiff base compounds (SB-F-OH, SB-Cl-OH and SB-Br-OH) were derived from chalcone-derived amine compounds containing halogen groups and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde. Also, their phthalonitrile compounds (SB-F-CN, SB-Cl-CN and SB-Br-CN) have been synthesized. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by NMR, FT-IR and Mass spectroscopic methods. The quantum chemical parameters were calculated at B3LYP/6-31++g(d,p), HF/6-31++g(d,p) and M062X/6-31++g(d,p) levels. As the biological application of the synthesized compounds, (i) their inhibition properties of the synthesized compounds on Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) metabolic enzymes were investigated, and their potential anticancer activities against neuroblastoma (NB; SH-SY5Y) and healthy fibroblast (NIH-3T3) cell lines were determined by in vitro assays. All compounds showed inhibition at nanomolar level with the Ki values in the range of 97.86 ± 30.51-516.82 ± 31.42 nM for AChE, 33.21 ± 4.45-78.50 ± 8.91 nM for BChE, respectively. It has been determined that all tested compounds have a remarkable cytotoxic effect against SH-SY5Y, and IC50 values were significantly lower than NIH-3T3 cells. The lowest IC50 value was observed in SB-Cl-OH (7.48 ± 0.86 µM) and SB-Cl-CN (7.31 ± 0.69 µM). The molecular docking of the molecules was also investigated using crystal structure of AChE enzyme protein (PDB ID: 4M0E), crystal structure of BChE protein (PDB ID: 6R6V) and SH-SY5Y cancer protein (PDB ID: 2F3F, 3PBL and 5WIV). The ADME properties of the compounds were investigated. MM/GBSA method is calculated binding free energy. Afterwards, ADME/T analysis was performed to examine the some properties of the molecules.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative condition associated with ageing, can occur. AD gradually impairs memory and cognitive function, which leads to abnormal behavior, incapacity, and reliance. By 2050, there will likely be 100 million cases of AD in the world's population. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) inhibition are significant components of AD treatment. This work developed models using the genetic method multiple linear regression, atom-based, field-based, and 3-D pharmacophore modelling. Due to internal and external validation, all of the models have solid statistical (R2 > 0.81 and Q2 > 0.77) underpinnings. From a pre-plated CNS library (6055), we discovered a hit compound using virtual screening on a QSAR model. Through molecular docking, additional hit compounds were investigated (XP mode). Finally, a molecular dynamics simulation revealed that the Molecule5093-4BDS complex was stable (100 ns). Finally, the expected ADME properties for the hit compounds (Molecule5093, Molecule1076, Molecule4412, Molecule1053, and Molecule3344) were found. According to the results of our investigation and the prospective hit compounds, BuChE inhibitors may be used as a treatment for AD. Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative condition associated with ageing, can occur.![]()

Abstract
A novel series of bis- (Abdelhamid et al., 2017, Banerjee et al., 2018, Bharanidharan et al., 2022)thiadiazoles was synthesized from the reaction of precursor dimethyl 2,2'-(1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diylidene)-bis(hydrazine-1-carbodithioate) and hydrazonyl chlorides in ethanol under ultrasonic irradiation. Spectral tools (IR. NMR, MS, elemental analyses, molecular dynamic simulation, DFT and LUMO and HOMO) were used to elucidate the structure of the isolated products. Molecular docking for the precursor, 3 and ligands 6a-i to two COVID-19 important proteins Mpro and RdRp was compared with two approved drugs, Remdesivir and Ivermectin. The binding affinity varied between the ligands and the drugs. The highest recorded binding affinity of 6c with Mpro was (-9.2 kcal/mol), followed by 6b and 6a, (-8.9 and -8.5 kcal/mol), respectively. The lowest recorded binding affinity was (-7.0 kcal/mol) for 6 g. In comparison, the approved drugs showed binding affinity (-7.4 and -7.7 kcal/mol), for Remdesivir and Ivermectin, respectively, which are within the range of the binding affinity of our ligands. The binding affinity of the approved drug Ivermectin against RdRp recoded the highest (-8.6 kcal/mol), followed by 6a, 6 h, and 6i are the same have (-8.2 kcal/mol). The lowest reading was found for compound 3 ligand (-6.3 kcal/mol). On the other side, the amino acids also differed between the compounds studied in this project for both the viral proteins. The ligand 6a forms three H-bonds with Thr 319(A), Sr 255(A) and Arg 457(A), whereas Ivermectin forms three H-bonds with His 41(A), Gly143(A) and Gln 18(A) for viral Mpro. The RdRp amino acids residues could be divided into four groups based on the amino acids that interact with hydrogen or hydrophobic interactions. The first group contained 6d, 6b, 6 g, and Remdesivir with 1-4 hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions 1 to 10. Group 2 is 6a and 6f exhibited 1 and 3 hydrogen bonds and 15 and 14 hydrophobic interactions. Group 3 has 6e and Ivermectin shows 4 and 3 hydrogen bonds, respectively and 11 hydrophobic interactions for both compounds. The last group contains ligands 3, 6c, 6 h, and 6i gave 1-3 hydrogen bonds and 6c and 3 recorded the highest number of hydrophobic interactions, 14 for both 6c and 6 h. Pro Tox-II estimated compounds' activities as Hepatoxic, Carcinogenic and Mutagenic, revealing that 6f-h were inactive in all five similar to that found with Remdesivir and Ivermectin. The drug-likeness prediction was carried out by studying physicochemical properties, lipophilicity, size, polarity, insolubility, unsaturation, and flexibility. Generally, some properties of the ligands were comparable to that of the standards used in this study, Remdesivir and Ivermectin.

Abstract
Abstract
In this study, two novel series of thiazolylhydrazone derivatives containing 4-ethylpiperazine (3a–3f) and 4-methoxyphenylpiperazine (3g–3l) side chains were synthesized and their structures were characterized by spectral (1H NMR, 13C NMR, and MS spectra) analyses. In vitro inhibitory activities of synthesized compounds against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) were determined by Ellman method. According to the results, all compounds showed a weak inhibitory effect on AChE, while promising results were obtained on BChE. Among the synthesized compounds, the activities of the derivatives carrying 4-ethylpiperazine (3a–3f) structure were found to be more effective than the compounds carrying 4-methoxyphenyl piperazine (3g–3l) derivatives. Especially, compound 3f bearing the nitro substituent was found to be the most promising compound on BChE in the series. The absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) parameters of the synthesized compounds were predicted by using the SwissADME server. The potential binding mode and stability of compound 3f with BChE were investigated by the molecular docking and dynamics simulations. The results showed that 3f was strongly bound up with BChE with the optimal conformation; in addition, their binding free energy reached −167.936 ± 13.109 kJ/mol.
