Abstract
A series of 1,2,4-triazolo-quinazolinones and 1,2-benzisothiazolone derivatives (S1-S12) were successfully synthesized as environmentally friendly alternatives to copper-based antifouling paints using N-alkylation, cyclocondensation, and one-pot three-component and amide coupling reactions. The monoclinic structure of single-crystal 1,2,4-triazolo-quinazolin-acetic acid (S8) was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. All the synthesized molecules were studied for their in silico molecular docking interactions with three target proteins, namely, RbmA, ToxR, and Bap. Following that, the antialgal activity was assessed against two types of marine algae: Chlorella sp. and Chaetoceros curvisetus. The minimal inhibitory concentration and zone of inhibition have been used to evaluate the antibacterial activities of S1-S12 against both marine Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Vibrio parahemolyticus and Vibrio vulnificus) bacteria. Additionally, antifouling studies have been done on all the compounds, and among them, 1,2,4-triazolo-quinazolinyl-acetate (S7), 1,2,4-triazolo-quinazolinyl-acetic acid (S8), 1,2,4-triazolo-quinazolinyl-oxobutanoate (S9), benzo[d]isothiazolyl butanoate (S10), benzo[d]isothiazolyl-acetic acid (S11), and 1,2,4-triazolo-quinazolinyl-acetyl-benzo[d]isothiazolone (S12) exhibited good antialgal, antibacterial, and antifouling activities.

[PMID: 36740656 DOI: 10.1007/s43440-023-00453-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Benzoquinazolines, the essential constituents of numerous well-known heterocyclic systems, have occupied a prominent position and played a significant part in the synthesis of various pharmaceutical compounds. The wide range of pharmacological effects attributed to benzoquinazolines has been the subject of extensive study. These include their roles as anticancer, antimicrobial, anti-monoamine oxidase, anticonvulsant, antiviral, antinociceptive, antioxidant, antineoplastic, antituberculosis, antiplatelet, and antiphlogistic agents. This work provides an attempt at a literature review of the pharmacological activities of benzoquinazoline derivatives, including an up-to-date account of recent research findings, and suggests avenues for future exploration in the pursuit of more potent and specific analogues for a wide range of biological targets using this platform.

Abstract
The control of fungal pathogens is increasingly difficult due to the limited number of effective drugs available for antifungal therapy. In addition, both humans and fungi are eukaryotic organisms; antifungal drugs may have significant toxicity due to the inhibition of related human targets. Furthermore, another problem is increased incidents of fungal resistance to azoles, such as fluconazole, ketoconazole, voriconazole, etc. Thus, the interest in developing new azoles with an extended spectrum of activity still attracts the interest of the scientific community. Herein, we report the synthesis of a series of triazolium salts, an evaluation of their antifungal activity, and docking studies. Ketoconazole and bifonazole were used as reference drugs. All compounds showed good antifungal activity with MIC/MFC in the range of 0.0003 to 0.2/0.0006–0.4 mg/mL. Compound 19 exhibited the best activity among all tested with MIC/MFC in the range of 0.009 to 0.037 mg/mL and 0.0125–0.05 mg/mL, respectively. All compounds appeared to be more potent than both reference drugs. The docking studies are in accordance with experimental results.

Abstract
Fourteen triazole benzoic acid hybrids were previously characterized. This work aimed to screen their in vitro antioxidant activity using different assays, i.e., DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl), reducing the power capability, FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidants power) and ABTS (2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylben zothiazoline-6-sulfonate) radical scavenging. The 14 compounds showed antioxidant properties in relation to standard BHA (butylated hydroxylanisole) and Trolox (6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid). Higher antioxidant activity was observed by the parent (1) at a concentration of 100 µg/mL (89.95 ± 0.34 and 88.59 ± 0.13%) when tested by DPPH and ABTS methods in relation to BHA at 100 µg/mL (95.02 ± 0.74 and 96.18 ± 0.33%). The parent (2) demonstrated remarkable scavenging activity when tested by ABTS (62.00 ± 0.24%), however, 3 was less active (29.98 ± 0.13%). Compounds 5, 6, 9, and 11 exhibited good scavenging activity compared to 1. DFT studies were performed using the B3LYP/6-311++g (2d,2p) level of theory to evaluate different antioxidant descriptors for the targets. Three antioxidant mechanisms, i.e., hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), sequential electron transfer proton transfer (SETPT) and sequential proton loss electron transfer (SPLET) were suggested to describe the antioxidant properties of 1–14. Out of the 14 triazole benzoic acid hybrids, 5, 9, 6, and 11 showed some good theoretical results, which were in agreement with some experimental outcomes. Based on the computed (PA and ETE) and (BDE and IP) values in (SPLET) and (HAT and SETPT) mechanisms, respectively, compound 9 emerged has having good antioxidant activity.

Abstract
The present work aimed to synthesize 2-methylthio-triazoloquinazoline derivatives and study their X-ray, NMR, DFT and Hirshfeld characteristics. The cyclocondensation of dimethyl-N-cyanodithiocarbonate with 2-hydrazinobenzoic acid hydrochloride resulted in an intermediate, 2-methylthio-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-5-one (A), which upon treatment with phosphorus pentasulfide, transformed into the 2-methylthio-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-5-thione (B). Reaction of 2-methylthio-triazoloquinazolines (A&B) with alkyl halides (allyl bromide and ethyl iodide) in basic medium afforded 4-allyl-2-methylthio-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-5-one (1; N-alkylated) and 5-ethylthio-2-methylthio-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline (2; S-alkylated), respectively. Their molecular and supramolecular structures were presented. Unambiguously, the molecular structures of 1 and 2 were confirmed via NMR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The resulting findings confirmed the structures of 1 and 2 and determined their crystalized system (monoclinic system; P21/n space group). Hirshfeld analysis of 1 revealed the importance of the significantly short O···H (6.7%), S···S (1.2%) and C···C (2.8%); however, the short H···H (42.6%), S···H (16.3%) and C···C (4.3%) were showed in 2 by intermolecular interactions in the molecular packing. The 1,2,4-triazoloquinzolines (1&2) were anticipated to be relatively polar compounds with net dipole moments of 2.9284 and 4.2127 Debye, respectively. The molecular electrostatic potential, atomic charge distribution maps and reactivity descriptors for 1 and 2 were also determined. The calculated nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of the targets 1 and 2 were well correlated with the experimental data.

Abstract
Nitrogen heterocyclic rings have participated to constitute most of the drugs and several pharmacologically related compounds. The existence of such hetero atoms/groups in heterocyclic systems privileged specificities in their biological objectives. Particularly, quinazoline and triazole are biologically imperative platforms known to be linked with various pharmacological activities. Some of the prominent pharmacological responses ascribed to these systems are analgesic, antiinflammatory, anticonvulsant, hypnotic, antihistaminic, antihypertensive, anticancer, antimicrobial, antitubercular, antiviral and antimalarial activities. This diversity in the pharmacological outputs for both triazole and quinazoline systems has encouraged the medicinal chemistry researchers to create several chemical routes aiming at the incorporation of two rings in one molecule named triazoloquinazoline system. This system has shown multiple potential activities against numerous targets. Correlation the specific structural features of triazoloquinazoline system with its pharmacological purposes has successively been achieved by performing several pharmacological examinations and structure-activity relationship studies. The development of triazoloquinazoline derivatives and the understanding of their pharmacological targets offer opportunities for novel therapeutics. This review mainly emphases on the medicinal chemistry aspects of triazoloquinazolines including synthesis, reactivity, biological activity and structure activity relationship studies (SARs). Moreover, this review collates literature reported by researchers on triazoquinazolines and provides detailed attention on their analogs pharmacological activities in the perspective of drug development and discovery.

Abstract
Thirteen 4-hydrazinobenzoic acid derivatives were elaborated and characterized by spectral analyses (NMR and MS). Evaluation of their in vitro cytotoxic activity showed that some of the targets demonstrated potent inhibitory effects against HCT-116 and MCF-7 cancer cells. The IC50 values ranged between 21.3 ± 4.1 and 28.3 ± 5.1 µM, respectively, whereas those of doxorubicin (reference drug) ranged between 22.6 ± 3.9 and 19.7 ± 3.1 µM, respectively. The active targets 6, 7 and 9 exhibited very weak cytotoxicity on normal cells (RPE-1) and showed higher IC50 values against HCT-116 and MCF-7 cells in comparison to doxorubicin. Furthermore, compounds 7, 9 and 10 inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7 by the induction of apoptosis. The bioassay results in the regression plots generated in 3D QSAR models were in agreement and correlated with the anticancer results of the target molecules. The 4-hydazinobenzoic acid derivatives can be used as cornerstones for further structural modifications as future anticancer agents.

Abstract
Previously, we synthesized triazoloquinazolines 1–14 and characterized their structure. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the in vitro activity of the targets 1–14 as α-glucosidase inhibitors using α-glucosidase enzyme from Saccharomyces cerevisiae type 1. Among the tested compounds, triazoloquinazolines 14, 8, 4, 5, and 3 showed the highest inhibitory activity (IC50 = 12.70 ± 1.87, 28.54 ± 1.22, 45.65 ± 4.28, 72.28 ± 4.67, and 83.87 ± 5.12 μM, respectively) in relation to that of acarbose (IC50 = 143.54 ± 2.08 μM) as a reference drug. Triazoloquinazolines were identified herein as a new class of potent α-glucosidase inhibitors. Molecular docking results envisaged the plausible binding interaction between the target triazoloquinazolines and α-glucosidase enzyme and indicated considerable interaction with the active site residues.

Abstract
A series of 4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)benzoic acid hybrids (1-17) was successfully synthesized and their structures were established by NMR and MS analysis. In vitro cytotoxic evaluation indicated that some of the hybrids exhibited potent inhibitory activities against MCF-7 and HCT-116 cancer cell lines, with IC50 values ranging from 15.6 to 23.9 µM, compared with reference drug doxorubicin (19.7 and 22.6 µM, respectively). Notably, the most potent compounds, 2, 5, 14, and 15, not only exhibited an obvious improvement in IC50 values, but demonstrated very weak cytotoxic effects toward normal cells (RPE-1) compared with doxorubicin. A further investigation showed that compounds 2 and 14 clearly inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7 cancer cells by inducing apoptosis. In addition, these hybrids showed acceptable correlation with bioassay results in regression plots generated by 2D QSAR models. Our results indicated that 1,2,4-triazole benzoic acid hybrids could be used as a structural optimization platform for the design and development of more selective and potent anticancer molecules.

Abstract
Diabetes is an emerging metabolic disorder. α-Glucosidase inhibitors, such as acarbose, delay the hydrolysis of carbohydrates by interfering with the digestive enzymes. This action decreases the glucose absorption and the postprandial glucose level. We have synthesized 25 tricyclic 2-phenoxypyrido[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-5(4H)-ones hybrids and evaluated their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Compounds 6h and 6d have shown stronger activity than that of acarbose. Compound 6h exhibited the highest inhibition with an IC50 of 104.07 µM. Molecular modelling studies revealed that compound 6h inhibits α-glucosidase due to the formation of a stable ligand-α-glucosidase complex and extra hydrogen bond interactions, and directed in the binding site by Trp329.25 tricyclic 2-phenoxypyrido[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-5(4H)-ones hybrids have been synthesized and evaluated their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Compounds 6h have shown stronger activity than that of acarbose ![]()

Abstract
Twenty-two 2-thiophen-naphtho(benzo)oxazinone derivatives are prepared using 3-amino-2-naphthoic and 5-nitroanthranilic acids as building blocks. The target compounds (1-22) were evaluated quantitatively for their cytotoxic effects in vitro against three cancer cell lines, including the lung A549, the hepatocyte HepG2, and the breast MCF-7 carcinoma cells. Compounds 1, 12, 14, and 21 were found to exhibit remarkable cytotoxicity against the tested cancer cell lines. Compound 21 has shown the highest activity against A549 and MCF-7 (IC50: 9.8 & 3.6 µg mL-1) whereas 1 (IC50: 5.9 µg mL-1) and 5 (3.6 µg mL-1) were the most active against HepG2. To elucidate the structure-cytotoxicity relationships of the synthesized compounds, a number of their chemical descriptors are determined including electronic, steric and hydrophobicity descriptors. The electronic properties were calculated through density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31 + G(d,p). The impact of the chosen descriptors is evaluated statistically through simple and multiple linear regression analyses (SLR and MLR). SLR analyses reveal that the impact of each descriptor on the cell lines are relatively weak except for MCF-7, where hardness and softness show moderate correlations with correlation coefficients higher than 60%. The correlations were improved by considering MLR analyses (R2 ≥ 90%), which showed that the cytotoxicity of synthesized compounds is correlated with their combined descriptors hardness, softness, electrophiliciy and hydrophobicity (LogP).

Abstract
Aim: The present study was carried out to assess a new series of triazoloquinazolines 1–40 for their antioxidant activities using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl radical scavenging, ferric reduction antioxidant power and reducing power capability assays. Results: All triazoloquinazolines 1–40 exhibited antioxidant activity ranged from weak to moderate and high. The obtained findings revealed that the triazoloquinazolines 30, 36 and 38–40 have superiority among all compounds, demonstrating the highest capacity to deplete 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl and free radicals, in relation to butylated hydroxyl toluene, as a synthetic antioxidant agent. Conclusion: Chemical modifications together with density functional theory study on the targets supplied us with some valuable clarifications about the required properties needed for the target compounds to be more active against free radicals.

Abstract
In this study, a new series of quinazoline derivatives (3–26) was synthesized and characterized via physicochemical and spectral means. Treatment of 2-amino-5-methylbenzoic acid with butyl isothiocyanate resulted in the new 2-thioxoquinazolin-4-one (3). Alkylation and hydrazinolysis of the inherent thioxo group in (1–3) afforded the corresponding thioethers (4–23) and hydrazine derivatives (24 and 25), then 24 was further transformed into tricyclic derivative 26 via cyclocondensation reaction. Compounds 1 and 2, which were previously synthesized, were found to exhibit anticancer activity. The cytotoxicity of all compounds was evaluated in vitro against the HeLa and MDA-MB231 cancer cell lines, including 1 and 2 for comparison, using MTT assay. The treatment of the cells was performed with the synthesized compounds and gefitinib at 0, 1, 5, 10, 25, and 50 μM and incubated for 24 h in 50% DMSO. The IC50 values of the target compounds were reported in μM, using gefitinib as a standard. Our results indicated that all compounds exhibited significant in vitro cytotoxicity against both cell lines. While compounds 1–3 showed good activity, compounds 21–23 were found to be more potent than gefitinib. Thus, compounds 21–23 may be potential anticancer agents, with IC50 values ranging from 1.85 to 2.81 μM in relation to gefitinib (IC50 = 4.3 and 28.3 μM against HeLa and MDA-MB231 cells, respectively).

Abstract
The presence of N-heterocycles as an essential structural motif in a variety of biologically active substances has stimulated the development of new strategies and technologies for their synthesis. Among the various N-heterocyclic scaffolds, quinazolines and quinazolinones form a privileged class of compounds with their diverse spectrum of therapeutic potential. The easy generation of complex molecular diversity through broadly applicable, cost-effective, practical and sustainable synthetic methods in a straightforward fashion along with the importance of these motifs in medicinal chemistry, received significant attention from researchers engaged in drug design and heterocyclic methodology development. In this perspective, the current review article is an effort to recapitulate recent developments in the eco-friendly and green procedures for the construction of highly challenging and potentially bioactive quinazoline and quinazolinone compounds in order to help medicinal chemists in designing and synthesizing novel and potent compounds for the treatment of different disorders. The key mechanistic insights for the synthesis of these heterocycles along with potential applications and manipulations of the products have also been conferred. This article also aims to highlight the promising future directions for the easy access to these frameworks in addition to the identification of more potent and specific products for numerous biological targets.
