Design, Synthesis, and Biological Activity of Novel Myricetin Derivatives Containing Amide, Thioether, and 1,3,4-Thiadiazole Moieties

Recent Advances and Outlook of Benzopyran Derivatives in the Discovery of Agricultural Chemicals

Scaffold structures, new mechanisms of action, and targets present enormous challenges in the discovery of novel pesticides. The discovery of new scaffolds is the basis for the continuous development of modern agrochemicals. Identification of a good scaffold such as triazole, carbamate, methoxy acrylate, pyrazolamide, pyrido-pyrimidinone mesoionic, and bisamide often leads to the development of a new series of pesticides. In addition, pesticides with the same target, including the inhibitors of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), oxysterol-binding-protein, and p-hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD), may have the same or similar scaffold structure. Recent years have witnessed significant progress in the discovery of new pesticides using natural products as scaffolds or bridges. In recent years, there have been increasing reports on the application of natural benzopyran compounds in the discovery of new pesticides, especially osthole and coumarin. A systematic and comprehensive review of benzopyran active compounds in the discovery of new agricultural chemicals is helpful to promote the discussion and development of benzopyran active compounds. Therefore, this work systematically reviewed the research and application of benzopyran derivatives in the discovery of agricultural chemicals, summarized the antiviral, herbicidal, antibacterial, fungicidal, insecticidal, nematicidal and acaricidal activities of benzopyran active compounds, and discussed the structural-activity relationship and mechanism of action. In addition, some active fragments were recommended to further optimize the chemical structure of benzopyran active compounds based on reference information.

Synthesis and Antifungal Activity of Chalcone Derivatives Containing 1,3,4-Thiadiazole

24 chalcone derivatives containing 1,3,4-thiadiazole were synthesized. The results of bioactivity tests indicated that some of the target compounds exhibited superior antifungal activities in vitro. Notably, the EC50 value of D4 was 14.4 μg/mL against Phomopsis sp, which was significantly better than that of azoxystrobin (32.2 μg/mL) and fluopyram (54.2 μg/mL). The in vivo protective activity of D4 against Phomopsis sp on kiwifruit (71.2 %) was significantly superior to azoxystrobin (62.8 %) at 200 μg/mL. The in vivo protective activities of D4 were 74.4 and 57.6 % against Rhizoctonia solani on rice leaf sheaths and rice leaves, respectively, which were slightly better than those of azoxystrobin (72.1 and 49.2 %) at 200 μg/mL. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results showed that the mycelial surface collapsed, contracted and grew abnormally after D4 treatment. Finally, the results were further verified by in vivo antifungal assay, fluorescence microscopy (FM) observation, determination of relative conductivity, membrane lipid peroxidation degree assay, and determination of cytoplasmic content leakage. Molecular docking results suggested that D4 could be a potential SDHI.

Novel Flavonol Derivatives Containing 1,3,4-Thiadiazole as Potential Antifungal Agents: Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation

In order to discover novel compounds with excellent agricultural activities, novel flavonol derivatives containing 1,3,4-thiadiazole were synthesized and evaluated for their antifungal activities. The bioassay results showed that some of the target compounds had good antifungal activities against Botrytis cinerea, Phomopsis sp. and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in vitro. It is worth noting that the half-effective concentration (EC50) value of Y18 against B. cinerea was 2.4 μg/mL, which was obviously superior to that of azoxystrobin (21.7 μg/mL). The curative activity of Y18 at 200 μg/mL (79.9%) was better than that of azoxystrobin (59.1%), and its protective activity (90.9%) was better than that of azoxystrobin (83.9%). Morphological studies by using scanning electron microscopy and fluorescence microscopy revealed that Y18 could affect the normal growth of B. cinerea mycelium. In addition, the mechanism of action studies indicated that Y18 could affect the integrity of cell membranes by inducing the production of endogenous reactive oxygen species and the release of the malondialdehyde content, leading to membrane lipid peroxidation and the release of cell contents. The inhibitory activity of flavonol derivatives containing 1,3,4-thiadiazole on plant fungi is notable, offering significant potential for the development of new antifungal agents.

Repurposing of phyto-ligand molecules from the honey bee products for Alzheimer's disease as novel inhibitors of BACE-1: small molecule bioinformatics strategies as amyloid-based therapy

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the neurodegenerative diseases, manifesting dementia, spatial disorientation, language, cognitive, and functional impairment, mainly affects the elderly population with a growing concern about the financial burden on society. Repurposing can improve the traditional progress of drug design applications and could speed up the identification of innovative remedies for AD. The pursuit of potent anti-BACE-1 drugs for AD treatment has become a pot boiler topic in the recent past and to instigate the design of novel improved inhibitors from the bee products. Drug-likeness characteristics (ADMET: absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity), docking (AutoDock Vina), simulation (GROMACS), and free energy interaction (MM-PBSA, molecular mechanics Poisson-Boltzmann surface area) analyses were performed to identify the lead candidates from the bee products (500 bioactives from the honey, royal jelly, propolis, bee bread, bee wax, and bee venom) for Alzheimer's disease as novel inhibitors of BACE-1 (beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme (1) receptor using appropriate bioinformatics tools. Forty-four bioactive lead compounds were screened from the bee products through high throughput virtual screening on the basis of their pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics characteristics, showing favorable intestinal and oral absorption, bioavailability, blood brain barrier penetration, less skin permeability, and no inhibition of cytochrome P450 inhibitors. The docking score of the forty-four ligand molecules was found to be between -4 and -10.3 kcal/mol, respectively, exhibiting strong binding affinity to BACE1 receptor. The highest binding affinity was observed in the rutin (-10.3 kcal/mol), 3,4-dicaffeoylquinic acid (-9.5 kcal/mol), nemorosone (-9.5 kcal/mol), and luteolin (-8.9 kcal/mol). Furthermore, these compounds demonstrated high total binding energy -73.20 to -105.85 kJ/mol), and low root mean square deviation (0.194-0.202 nm), root mean square fluctuation (0.0985-0.1136 nm), radius of gyration (2.12 nm), number of H-bonds (0.778-5.436), and eigenvector values (2.39-3.54 nm²) in the molecular dynamic simulation, signifying restricted motion of Cα atoms, proper folding and flexibility, and highly stable with compact of the BACE1 receptor with the ligands. Docking and simulation studies concluded that rutin, 3,4-dicaffeoylquinic acid, nemorosone, and luteolin are plausibly used as novel inhibitors of BACE1 to combat AD, but further in-depth experimental investigations are warranted to prove these in silico findings.

Development of a chitosan derivative bearing the thiadiazole moiety and evaluation of its antifungal and larvicidal efficacy

A new chitosan derivative bearing a new thiadiazole compound was developed, and its antifungal and larvicidal activities were investigated. The chitosan derivative (coded here as PTDz-Cs) was synthesized by the reaction between the carboxylic derivative of the thiadiazole moiety and chitosan. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (1H/13C-NMR), gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS), elemental analysis, X-Ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to characterize the developed derivatives. Compared to chitosan, the PTDz-Cs derivative has a less crystalline structure and less thermal stability. The antifungal results revealed that PTDz-Cs exhibited potential activity against Rhizopus microspores, Mucor racemosus, Lichtheimia corymbifera, and Syncephalastrum racemosum where inhibition zones were 17.76, 20.1, 38.2, and 18.3 mm, respectively. The larvicidal efficacy of the PTDz-Cs derivative against A. stephensi larvae was tested, and the results exposed that the LC50 and LC90 values (first instar) were 5.432 and 10.398 ppm, respectively, indicating the high susceptibility of early instar mosquito larvae to PTDz-Cs. These results emphasize that this study provided a new chitosan derivative that could be potentially used in the biomedical fields.

Novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole sulfonate/carboxylate flavonoid derivatives: synthesis and biological activity

BACKGROUND

With the long-term use of traditional bactericides and antiviral agents, drug resistance has become increasingly prominent, resulting in impaired crop growth and yields. Based on this, the introduction of small molecular active groups into natural products has become the direction of research for green pesticides.

RESULTS

In this study, novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole sulfonate/carboxylate flavonoid derivatives were explored. Among them, D4 exhibited good inhibitory effects on plant bacteria. It is worth mentioning that D4 (15 μg ml^-1 ) exhibited an excellent median effective concentration (EC₅₀ ) value against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), which was better than bismerthiazol (73 μg ml^-1 ) and thiodiazole copper (100 μg ml^-1 ). The EC₅₀ for D4 was much lower than the two positive controls (bismerthiazol, thiodiazole copper), making D4 more potent in this assay of bacterial growth inhibition. In addition, mechanism research using scanning electron microscopy revealed that D4 could cause deformation or rupture of the cell membranes of Xoo and Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae. Moreover, D4 exhibited the best EC₅₀ for in vivo curative (132 μg ml^-1 ) and protective (101 μg ml^-1 ) activities against tobacco mosaic virus, which were more effective than ningnanmycin. Microscale thermophoresis data suggested that D4 [dissociation constant (K_d ) = 0.038 ± 0.011 μmol L^-1 ] exhibited a stronger binding capacity than the control agent ningnanmycin (K_d = 4.707 ± 2.176 μmol L^-1 ).

CONCLUSION

The biological activity data and mode of action demonstrated that D4 had the best antibacterial and antiviral effects. Compound D4 discovered in the current work may be a very promising agricultural drug. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Design, Synthesis, and Anti-Fungal Evaluation of Heterocyclic Benzoxazole Derivatives

In order to discover more promising anti-fungal agents, a series of benzoxazole family was synthesized by PPA-catalyzed condensation and a Raney nickel/hydrazine reduction. Altogether 45 compounds were obtained in good to excellent yields and characterized by FT-IR, NMR, MS, and X-ray crystal diffraction. Moreover, the biological activity against eight phytopathogenic fungi was investigated. All in all, most of these compounds bear moderate antifungal activities. Among them, three candidates show the strongest activities, compound 4ac, 4bc provided over 50% inhibition rate against five fungi. Especially, the inhibitory rate of compound 4ah on Mycosphaerella melonis reached 76.4%.

Inhibitor of Glucosinolate Sulfatases as a Potential Friendly Insecticide to Control Plutella xylostella

The glucosinolate-myrosinase system is a two-component defense system characteristic of cruciferous plants. To evade the glucosinolate-myrosinase system, the crucifer specialist insect, Plutella xylostella, promptly desulfates the glucosinolates into harmless compounds by glucosinolate sulfatases (GSSs) in the gut. In this study, we identified an effective inhibitor of GSSs by virtual screening, molecular docking analysis, and in vitro enzyme inhibition assay. The combined effect of the GSS inhibitor with the plant glucosinolate-myrosinase system was assessed by the bioassay of P. xylostella. We show that irosustat is a GSS inhibitor and the inhibition of GSSs impairs the ability of P. xylostella to detoxify the glucosinolate-myrosinase system, leading to the systematic accumulation of toxic isothiocyanates in larvae, thereby severely affecting feeding, growth, survival, and reproduction of P. xylostella. While fed on the Arabidopsis mutants deficient in myrosinase or glucosinolates, irosustat had no significant negative effect on P. xylostella. These findings reveal that the GSS inhibitor is a novel friendly insecticide to control P. xylostella utilizing the plant glucosinolate-myrosinase system and promote the development of insecticide-plant chemical defense combination strategies.

A series of novel thiochroman-4-one derivatives incorporating carboxamide and 1, 3, 4-thiadiazole thioether moieties were synthesized. Bioassay results indicated that the EC50 values of compound 6-chloro-N-(5-(methylthio)-1, 3, 4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-4-oxothiochromane-2-carboxamide (5a) against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Citri (Xac) were 24 and 30 μg/mL, respectively, which were even better than those of bismerthiazol and thiadiazole copper. Meanwhile, compound 6-methyl-4-oxo-N-(5-(propylthio)-1, 3, 4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thiochromane-2-carboxamide (5m) showed a better antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea (B. cinerea), with an inhibition rate of 69%, than carbendazim. As far as we know, this is the first report on the antibacterial and antifungal activities of this series of novel thiochroman-4-one derivatives incorporating carboxamide and 1, 3, 4-thiadiazole thioether moieties.

Antibacterial and Antiviral Activities of 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Thioether 4H-Chromen-4-one Derivatives

Various 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether 4H-chromen-4-one derivatives were conceived. The title compounds demonstrated striking inhibitory effects against Xac, Psa, and Xoo. EC₅₀ data exhibited that A8 (19.7 μg/mL) had better antibacterial activity against Xoo than myricetin, BT, and TC. Simultaneously, the mechanism of action of A8 had been verified by SEM. The results of anti-tobacco mosaic virus indicated that A9 had the best in vivo antiviral effect compared with ningnanmycin. From the data of MST, it could be seen that A9 (0.003 ± 0.001 μmol/L) exhibited a strong binding capacity, which was far superior to ningnanmycin (2.726 ± 1.301 μmol/L). This study shows that the 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether 4H-chromen-4-one derivatives may become agricultural drugs with great potential.

A series of novel phosphorylated penta-1,4-dien-3-one derivatives were designed and synthesized. The structures of all title compounds were determined by ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, ³¹P-NMR, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Bioassay results showed that several of the title compounds exhibited remarkable antibacterial and antiviral activities. Among these, compound 3g exhibited substantial antibacterial activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv.

In addition, compound 3h showed remarkable protective activity against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), with an EC₅₀ value of 104.2 μg/mL, which was superior to that of ningnanmycin (386.2 μg/mL). Furthermore, the microscale thermophoresis and molecular docking experiments on the interaction of compounds 3h and 3j with TMV coat protein (TMV CP) were also investigated. Compounds 3h and 3j bound to TMV CP with dissociation constants of 0.028 and 0.23 μmol/L, which were better than that of ningnanmycin (0.52 μmol/L). These results suggest that novel phosphorylated penta-1,4-dien-3-one derivatives may be considered as an activator for antibacterial and antiviral agents.

Biological activity evaluation and action mechanism of chalcone derivatives containing thiophene sulfonate

A series of novel chalcone derivatives containing a thiophene sulfonate group were designed and synthesized. The structures of all title compounds were determined by ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR and HRMS.

At the same time, molecular docking studies for 2e and 2h with TMV-CP (PDB code: 1EI7) showed that the compound was embedded well in the pocket between the two subunits of TMV-CP in each case. These results suggested that chalcone derivatives containing a thiophene sulfonate group may be considered as activators in the design of antibacterial and antiviral agents.

Synthesis and antibacterial and antiviral activities of myricetin derivatives containing a 1,2,4-triazole Schiff base

A series of novel myricetin derivatives containing a 1,2,4-triazole Schiff base were designed and synthesized. Their structures were systematically characterized using ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and HRMS. During antibacterial bioassays, 6f, 6i, and 6q demonstrated a good inhibitory effect against Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac), with half-maximal effective concentration (EC₅₀) values of 10.0, 9.4, and 8.8 μg mL⁻¹, respectively, which were better than those of bismerthiazol (54.9 μg mL⁻¹) and thiodiazole copper (61.1 μg mL⁻¹). Note that 6w demonstrated a good inhibitory effect against Ralstonia solanacearum (Rs) with and EC₅₀ value of 15.5 μg mL⁻¹, which was better than those of bismerthiazol (55.2 μg mL⁻¹) and thiodiazole copper (127.9 μg mL⁻¹). Similarly, 6a, 6d, and 6e demonstrated a good inhibitory effect against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) with EC₅₀ values of 47.1, 61.2, and 61.0 μg mL⁻¹, respectively, which were better than those of bismerthiazol (148.2 μg mL⁻¹) and thiodiazole copper (175.5 μg mL⁻¹). Furthermore, we used scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to study the possible sterilization process of the target compound 6q against Xac. The results indicated the possibility of destroying the bacterial cell membrane structure, resulting in an incomplete bacterial structure, and thus achieving inhibition. Furthermore, antiviral bioassays revealed that most compounds exhibited excellent antiviral activity against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) at a concentration of 500 μg mL⁻¹. The results of the molecular docking studies for 6g with TMV-CP (PDB code: 1EI7) showed that compound 6g had partially interacted with TMV-CP. Therefore, mechanistic studies of the action of compound 6g could be further studied based on that.
