Abstract
A transition-metal- and photocatalyst-free photochemical reaction was successfully developed for the direct acylation of quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones, which was enabled by the formation of electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complexes. The use of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) as the electron donor allows efficient and operationally simple access to a series of C3-aroylated and acylated quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones with moderate to good yields.

Abstract
The functionalization of polyoxovanadate clusters is promising but of great challenge due to the versatile coordination geometry and oxidation state of vanadium. Here, two unprecedented silsesquioxane ligand-protected "fully reduced" polyoxovanadate clusters were fabricated via a facial solvothermal methodology. The initial mixture of the two polyoxovanadate clusters with different colors and morphologies (green plate V14 and blue block V6) was successfully separated as pure phases by meticulously controlling the assembly conditions. Therein, the V14 cluster is the highest-nuclearity V-silsesquioxane cluster to date. Moreover, the transformation from a dimeric silsesquioxane ligand-protected V14 cluster to a cyclic hexameric silsesquioxane ligand-protected V6 cluster was also achieved, and the possible mechanism termed "ligand-condensation-involved dissociation reassembly" was proposed to explain this intricate conversion process. In addition, the robust V6 cluster was served as a heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of important heterocyclic compounds, quinazolinones, starting from 2-aminobenzamide and aldehydes. The V6 cluster exhibits high activity and selectivity to access pure quinazolinones under mild conditions, where the high selectivity was attributed to the confinement effect of the macrocyclic silsesquioxane ligand constraining the molecular freedom of the reaction species. The stability and recyclability as well as the tolerance of a wide scope of aldehyde substrates endow the V6 cluster with a superior performance and appreciable potential in catalytic applications.

Critical view on antimicrobial, antibiofilm and cytotoxic activities of quinazolin-4(3 H)-one derived schiff bases and their Cu(II) complexes. Heliyon 2024; 10:e29051. [PMID: 38601653 PMCID: PMC11004567 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e29051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024] Open
Abstract
A series of nine 2,3-disubstituted-quinazolin-4(3H)-one derived Schiff bases and their three Cu(II) complexes was prepared and tested for their antimicrobial activities against reference strains Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 and resistant clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant E. faecalis (VRE). All the substances were tested in vitro against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra ATCC 25177, M. kansasii DSM 44162 and M. smegmatis ATCC 700084. While anti-enterococcal and antimycobacterial activities were insignificant, 3-[(E)-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzylidene)amino]-2-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrophenyl)-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one (SB3) and its Cu(II) complex (SB3-Cu) demonstrated bacteriostatic antistaphylococcal activity. In addition, both compounds, as well as the other two prepared complexes, showed antibiofilm activity, which resulted in a reduction of biofilm formation and eradication of mature S. aureus biofilm by 80% even at concentrations lower than the values of their minimum inhibitory concentrations. In addition, the compounds were tested for their cytotoxic effect on the human monocytic leukemia cell line THP-1. The antileukemic efficiency was improved by the preparation of Cu(II) complexes from the corresponding non-chelated Schiff base ligands.

Abstract
A facile and efficient copper-catalyzed domino-double annulation strategy was developed from easily accessible o-aminobenzamides and 2-iodoisothiocyanates, which affords a direct pathway for the synthesis of tetracyclic fused 12H-benzo[4,5]thiazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-12-ones in moderate to good yields without the addition of ligands, bases, and external oxidants. The reaction involves a C-N bond cleavage and the formation of a C-N/C-S bond in one step with the advantages of using an inexpensive copper catalyst and easy operation. Mechanistic studies suggest that this transformation proceeds via intermolecular condensation of o-aminobenzamides with 2-iodoisothiocyanates, followed by an intramolecular Ullmann-type cross-coupling cyclization reaction.

Abstract
The total synthesis of cyclotripeptidic natural products possessing a central piperazino[2,1-b]quinazolin-3,6-dione core is described through an original strategy involving the pivotal cyclocondensation of an electrophilic homoserine lactone intermediate. The alkylidene group was spontaneously installed by autoxidation during the cyclocondensation process, while the propionamide side chain was introduced through the nickel-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of a bromoethyl intermediate. This last reaction is unprecedented on such highly functionalized intermediates. Finally, we explored structural modifications and interconversions of the natural products. Overall, this work led to anacine, aurantiomide C, polonimides A and C, and verrucine F.

Design and synthesis of quinazolin-4-one derivatives as potential anticancer agents and investigation of their interaction with RecQ helicases. Bioorg Chem 2024; 144:107086.

Abstract
The upregulation of RecQ helicases has been associated with cancer cell survival and resistance to chemotherapy, making them appealing targets for therapeutic intervention. In this study, twenty-nine novel quinazolinone derivatives were designed and synthesized. The anti-proliferative activity of all compounds was evaluated against 60 cancer cell lines at the National Cancer Institute Developmental Therapeutic Program, with six compounds (11f, 11g, 11k, 11n, 11p, and 11q) being promoted to a five-dose screen. Compound 11g demonstrated high cytotoxic activity against all examined cell lines. The compounds were further assayed for Bloom syndrome (BLM) helicase inhibition, where 11g, 11q, and 11u showed moderate activity. These compounds were counter-screened against WRN and RECQ1 helicases, where 11g moderately inhibited both enzymes. An ATP competition assay confirmed that the compounds bound to the ATP site of RecQ helicases, and molecular docking simulations were used to study the binding mode within the active site of BLM, WRN, and RECQ1 helicases. Compound 11g induced apoptosis in both HCT-116 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines, but also caused an G2/M phase cell cycle arrest in HCT-116 cells. This data revealed the potential of 11g as a modulator of cell cycle dynamics and supports its interaction with RecQ helicases. In addition, compound 11g displayed non-significant toxicity against FCH normal colon cells at doses up to 100 µM, which confirming its high safety margin and selectivity on cancer cells. Overall, these findings suggest compound 11g as a potential pan RecQ helicase inhibitor with high anticancer potency and a favorable safety margin and selectivity.

Abstract
Chemists in the medicinal chemistry field are constantly searching for alternatives towards more sustainable and eco-friendly processes for the design and synthesis of drug candidates. The pharmaceutical industry is one of the most polluting industries, having a high E-factor, which is driving the adoption of more sustainable processes not only for new drug candidates, but also in the production of well-established active pharmaceutical ingredients. Deep eutectic systems (DESs) have emerged as a greener alternative to ionic liquids, and their potential to substitute traditional organic solvents in drug discovery has raised interest among scientists. With the use of DESs as alternative solvents, the processes become more attractive in terms of eco-friendliness and recyclability. Furthermore, they might be more effective through making the process simpler, faster, and with maximum efficiency. This review will be focused on the role and application of deep eutectic systems in drug discovery, using biocatalytic processes and traditional organic chemical reactions, as new environmentally benign alternative solvents. Furthermore, herein we also show that DESs, if used in the pharmaceutical industry, may have a significant effect on lowering production costs and decreasing the impact of this industry on the quality of the environment.

Abstract
Quinazolin-4-one, its heteroanalogues, and derivatives represent an outstandingly important class of compounds in modern organic, medicinal, and pharmaceutical chemistry, as these molecular structures are noted for their wide synthetic and pharmacological potential. In the last years, ever-increasing research attention has been paid to quinazolinone derivatives bearing alkenyl and alkynyl substituents on the pyrimidinone nucleus. The original structural combination of synthetically powerful endocyclic amidine (or amidine-related) and exocyclic unsaturated moieties provides a driving force for cyclizations, which offer an efficient toolkit to construct a variety of fused pyrimidine systems with saturated N- and N,S-heterocycles. In this connection, the present review article is mainly aimed at systematic coverage of the progress in using alkenyl(alkynyl)quinazolinones and their heteroanalogues as convenient bifunctional substrates for regioselective annulation of small- and medium-sized heterocyclic nuclei. Much attention is paid to elucidating the structural and electronic effects of reagents on the regio- and stereoselectivity of the cyclizations as well as to clarifying the relevant reaction mechanisms.

Abstract
Two novel series of quinazolinone-based hybrids, including quinazolinone-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (10a-l) and quinazolinone-1,3,4-oxadiazole-benzimidazoles (8a-e), were designed and synthesized and their cytotoxic activities against three human cancer cell lines, lung cancer (A549), cervical cancer (HeLa), and breast cancer (MCF-7), were evaluated. The cytotoxic assays revealed that 10i with a lipophilic 4-fluoro-phenyl moiety at the C-2 position of the quinazolinone ring displayed good cytotoxicities against the A549 and MCF-7 cell lines, while 8b-d with the thioether-linked benzimidazole moiety incorporated on the right side of the oxadiazole ring induced comparable stronger activities toward the MCF-7 cell line, relative to the simple two-heterocycle-containing hybrid 10i. These novel quinazolinone-based hybrids could be considered as lead compounds that merit further optimization and development as anti-cancer agents.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 2-Substituted Quinazolin-4(3 H)-Ones with Antiproliferative Activities. Molecules 2023; 28:7912. [PMID: 38067641 PMCID: PMC10707894 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28237912] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2023] [Revised: 11/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Sixteen new 2-substituted quinazolines were synthesized using a straightforward methodology starting from 2-methoxybezoic acid or 3-methoxy-2-naphthoic acid. The anti-proliferative activity of the target compounds was evaluated against nine cancer cell lines. Additionally, all the compounds were screened for their potency and selectivity against a panel of 109 kinases and four bromodomains, using Differential Scanning Fluorimetry (DSF). Compound 17 bearing a 2-methoxyphenyl substitution along with a basic side chain displayed a remarkable profile against the majority of the tested cell lines.

[PMID: 37630370 PMCID: PMC10458605 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28166119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/13/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common inflammatory skin disease characterized by pruritic lesions and skin barrier dysfunction. In this study, we evaluated the effect of a quinazoline derivative, SH-340, on TSLP expression and signaling in human primary keratinocytes. Our results demonstrated that SH-340 significantly increased factors for differentiation and skin barrier function including KRT1, KRT2, KRT10, IVL, LOR, CLDN1, OVOL1, and FLG, whereas it inhibited TSLP expression in a dose-dependent manner, both at the mRNA and protein levels. Furthermore, SH-340 was found to inhibit the phosphorylation of STAT6, a downstream signaling molecule of IL-4 and IL-13, in keratinocytes. These findings suggest that SH-340 may suppress TSLP expression by inhibiting the IL-4/IL-13-STAT6 signaling pathway. Finally, SH-340 may potentially contribute to both the alleviation of inflammation and the restoration of skin barrier function.

[PMID: 37435375 PMCID: PMC10331922 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra03702a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Accepted: 06/23/2023] [Indexed: 07/13/2023] Open
Abstract
A general microwave synthesis of 4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-2-yl propanoic acids and their diamide precursors from the corresponding substituted benzamide and succinic anhydride is described, using pinane as a sustainable solvent that favors the cyclization step. The conditions are some of the most simple and cost effective reported.
