Abstract
Novel class of triazine sulfonamide thioglycosides was designed and synthesized. Those novel structures comprising three essential and pharmacological significant moieties such as the triazine, sulfonamide, and thioglycosidic scaffolds. The triazine sulfonamides were furnished via a direct approach starting from potassium cyanocarbonimidodithioate, then the corresponding triazine sulfonamide thioglycosides were generated using the peracylated α-d-gluco- and galacto-pyranosyl bromides. Anti-viral evaluation of compounds in vitro against HCoV-229E virus revealed that some compounds possess promising activity. Compounds 4a, 4b, 4d, 6d and 6e indicate from moderate to low antiviral activity against low pathogenic coronavirus 229E in comparison with remdesivir at a concentration of 100 µg/mL. Additionally their in vitro anti-proliferative effects against NCI 60 cancer cell lines cell lines were also investigated. Compound 4a, the most potent compound among the estimated compounds, revealed remarkably lowest cell growth promotion against CNS cancer SNB-75, and renal cancer UO-31.

Abstract
Thiosemicarbazide was used as a key starting material for the building of a diversity of novel heterocyclic moieties. The heterocyclization reaction of thiosemicarbazide derivatives with carbon disulfide in basic conditions afforded novel heterocyclic 1,3,4-thiadiazolethiolate derivatives. 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol was successfully reacted with protected α-D-gluco- and galacto-pyranosyl bromides in dimethylformamide at room temperature to give the matching 1,3,4-thiadiazole S-glycosides in good yields. The latter compounds were reacted with ammonia-methanol at room temperature for 10 min, and the deprotected derivatives were obtained in good yields. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by basic analyses and spectral information (IR,1H NMR, and 13C NMR, X-ray). All newly produced compounds were evaluated and screened for their antibacterial activities. Compound 6f proved to be the most active antimicrobial among the investigated heterocycles.

Abstract
Novel approach for synthesizing triazine sulfonamide derivatives is accomplished via reacting the sulfaguanidine derivatives with N-cyanodithioiminocarbonate. Further reaction of the novel triazine sulfonamide analogues with various secondary amines and anilines generated various substituted triazine sulfonamide analogues of promising broad-spectrum activities including anti-microbial, anti-tumor, and anti-viral properties. The in vitro anti-proliferative activities of most of the novel compounds were evaluated on the NCI-60 cell line panel. The antifungal and antibacterial activities of the compounds were also estimated. The anti-viral activity against SARS CoV-2 virus was performed using MTT cytotoxicity assay to evaluate the half-maximal cytotoxic concentration (CC50) and inhibitory concentration 50 (IC50) of a representative compound from the novel triazine sulfonamide category. Compound 3a demonstrated potent antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 with IC50 = 2.378 µM as compared to the activity of the antiviral drug remdesivir (IC50 = 10.11 µM). Our results indicate that, upon optimization, these new triazine sulfonamides could potentially serve as novel antiviral drugs.

Abstract
In the title compound, C12H11N3OS, the inter-planar angle between the pyrazole and benzo-thia-zole rings is 3.31 (7)°. In the three-dimensional mol-ecular packing, the carbonyl oxygen acts as acceptor to four C-H donors (with one H⋯O as short as 2.25 Å), while one methyl hydrogen is part of the three-centre system H⋯(S, O). A double layer structure parallel to (01) can be recognized as a subsection of the packing.

Abstract
N-Phenyl-2-(phenyl-sulfan-yl)acetamide, C14H13NOS, was synthesized and structurally characterized. In the crystal, N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding leads to the formation of chains of mol-ecules along the [100] direction. The chains are linked by C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming a three-dimensional network. The crystal studied was twinned by a twofold rotation around [100].

Abstract
The title compound, C10H11N5O2S2, consists of an unexpected tautomer with a protonated nitro-gen atom in the triazine ring and a formal exocyclic double bond C=N to the sulfonamide moiety. The ring angles at the unsubstituted nitro-gen atoms are narrow, at 115.57 (12) and 115.19 (12)°, respectively, whereas the angle at the carbon atom between these N atoms is very wide, 127.97 (13)°. The inter-planar angle between the two rings is 79.56 (5)°. The mol-ecules are linked by three classical hydrogen bonds, forming a ribbon structure. There are also unusual linkages involving three short contacts (< 3 Å) from a sulfonamide oxygen atom to the C-NH-C part of a triazine ring.

Abstract
The novel N-naphthylcyanoacrylamide thioglycosides 4 were readily prepared by the reaction of N-napthylcyanoacetamide 1 with aryl isothiocyanates in the presence of potassium hydroxide, followed by coupling of the produced salts 2 with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-d-gluco- and galacto-pyranosyl bromides 3. The N-naphthyl acrylamide thioglycoside 12 was prepared by the reaction of N-napthylcyanoacetamide 1 with glucose isothiocyante 10 in the presence of potassium hydroxide, followed by alkylation of the produced salt 11 with methyl iodide. The reaction of thioglycoside compounds 4 with hydrazines afforded the corresponding naphthyl-pyrazole hybrids.

Abstract
In the structure of the title compound, C19H19N3O5S·C4H8O2, the two independent dioxane mol-ecules each display inversion symmetry. The pyrazole ring is approximately parallel to the aromatic ring of the oxy-ethanone group and approximately perpendicular to the tolyl ring of the sulfonyl substituent. An extensive system of classical and 'weak' hydrogen bonds connects the residues to form a layer structure parallel to (201), within which dimeric subunits are conspicuous; neighbouring layers are connected by classical hydrogen bonds to dioxanes and by 'weak' hydrogen bonds from Htol-yl donors.

Abstract
This study revealed the design and preparation of new 3-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2H-chromen-2-one derivatives 9a-h. The structures of the synthesized products were elucidated by their spectroscopic data and X-ray crystallography for compounds 9a and 9d. The prepared new compounds were measured for their fluorescence, and a good result indicated that the emission efficiency was decreased by increasing the electron-withdrawing groups from the unsubstituted compound 9a to the highly substituted derivative 9h (2 Br heavy atoms). On the other hand, the B3LYP/6-311G** theoretical level of theory was used to optimize the quantum mechanical calculations of the geometrical characteristics and energy of the novel compounds 9a-h under study. The electronic transition was investigated using the TD-DFT/PCM B3LYP approach, which uses time-dependent density functional calculations. Moreover, the compounds exhibited nonlinear optical properties (NLO) and a small HOMO-LUMO energy gap, which makes them easy to polarize. Furthermore, the acquired infrared spectra were compared with the expected harmonic vibrations of the substances 9a-h. On the other hand, binding energy analyses of compounds 9a-h with human corona virus nucleocapsid protein Nl63 (PDB ID: 5epw) were predicted using molecular docking and virtual screening tools. The results showed a promising binding and how these potent compounds were inhibiting the COVID-19 virus. Compound 9h was the most active anti-COVID-19 agent among all the synthesized benzothiazolyl-coumarin derivatives, as it forms five bonds. The presence of the two bromine atoms in its structure was responsible for the potent activity.

The inter-planar angle between the tolyl and thia-diazole rings is 9.2 (1)°. The complex hydrogen-bonding pattern, involving five donors and five acceptors, can be broken down into a one-dimensional ribbon parallel to the b axis, involving hydrogen bonds of the sugar residues only, and a two-dimensional layer structure parallel to the ab plane, based on the N-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds.

Abstract
The title compounds, C15H14N2OS (1a), C16H16N2OS (1b), and C17H18N2OS (1c), form a homologous series in which the size of the saturated ring increases from six- to eight-membered (with four, five and six methylene groups respectively). For 1b and 1c, the central (CH2)
n
moieties are all displaced to the same side of their ring, and the CH2—CH2—CH2 angles are much wider than the standard sp
3 value; a database search indicates that these are general features of such ring systems. For 1a, the thiophene ring lies with the sulfur atom on the opposite side of the Cthiophene—Cpyridine bond to the cyano group, in contrast to 1b and 1c. For each compound, the packing may be described in terms of two `weak' C—H...N hydrogen bonds, which link the molecules to form one-dimensional (1a, 1c) or three-dimensional (1b) assemblies.

Abstract
The drug-resistance problem is widely spread and becoming more common in community-acquired and nosocomial strains of bacteria. Therefore, finding new antimicrobial agents remains an important drug target. From this perspective, new derivatives of benzothiazole were synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial activity and ability to inhibit the DHPS enzyme. The synthesis was carried out by the reaction of benzothiazole N-arylsulphonylhydrazone with N-aryl-2-cyano-3-(dimethylamino)acrylamide, N-aryl-3-(dimethylamino)prop-2-en-1-one, arylaldehydes or diazonium salt of arylamine derivatives, which led to the formation of N-arylsulfonylpyridones 6a-d (yield 60-70%) and 12a-c (yield 50-60%),N-(2-(benzo[d]thiazole-2-yl)-3-arylacryloyl-4-methylsulfonohydrazide 14a-c (yield 60-65%), 4-(benzo[d]thiazole-2-yl)-5-aryl-1H-pyrazol-3(2H)-one 16a-c (yield 65-75%), and N'-(2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-(2-arylhydrazono)acetyl)-4-arylsulfonohydrazide 19a-e (yield 85-70%). The antimicrobial evaluations resulted into a variety of microbial activities against the tested strains. Most compounds showed antimicrobial activity against S. aureus with an MIC range of 0.025 to 2.609 mM. The most active compound, 16c, exhibited superior activity against the S. aureus strain with an of MIC 0.025 mM among all tested compounds, outperforming both standard drugs ampicillin and sulfadiazine. The physicochemical-pharmacokinetic properties of the synthesized compounds were studied, and it was discovered that some compounds do not violate rule of five and have good bioavailability and drug-likeness scores. The five antimicrobial potent compounds with good physicochemical-pharmacokinetic properties were then examined for their inhibition of DHPS enzyme. According to the finding, three compounds, 16a-c, had IC50 values comparable to the standard drug and revealed that compound 16b was the most active compound with an IC50 value of 7.85 μg/mL, which is comparable to that of sulfadiazine (standard drug) with an IC50 value of 7.13 μg/mL. A docking study was performed to better understand the interaction of potent compounds with the binding sites of the DHPS enzyme, which revealed that compounds 16a-c are linked by two arene-H interactions with Lys220 within the PABA pocket.

Abstract
Novel derivatives of benzothiazole-2-thiophene S-glycoside were synthesized and tested for their antiviral and anticancer potency and NS3/4A and USP7 enzyme inhibitions. The ring system was formed by first synthesizing new derivatives of 5-mercaptothiophene substituted with the benzothiazole moiety, followed by coupling with various halo sugar derivatives. New compounds were tested in vitro for the cytotoxic effect on five types of normal cell lines and for antiviral activity using a plaque reduction assay against CBV4, HSV-1, HCVcc genotype 4 viruses, HAV HM 175, and HAdV7. Notably, three compounds demonstrated substantial IC50, CC50, and SI values against HSV-1 with a viral reduction of 80% or more. Two substances have demonstrated a reduction of more than 50% in CBV4 and HCVcc viruses. The effectiveness of the compounds against HSV-1 and HCVcc was tested for their capability to inhibit NS3/4A protease and USP7 enzyme. Additionally, a panel of 60 human cancer cells was used to investigate the ability of the newly synthesized compounds to inhibit the in vitro tumor growth. The results revealed that two compounds, 6a and 6c, have an inhibitory effect on most cancer types, whereas 6d and 6f inhibited only three and two cell lines, respectively.

Abstract
A novel series of pyridine, cytosine, and uracil thioglycoside analogs (4a-i, 9a,b, and 13a,b, respectively) and their corresponding phosphoramidates (6a-I, 10a,b, and 14a,b, respectively) were synthesized and assessed for their antiviral inhibitory activities in a dual-pathogen screening protocol against SARS-CoV-2 and influenza A virus (IAV). MTT cytotoxicity (TC50) and plaque reduction assays were used to explore inhibition and cytotoxicity percentage values for H5N1 influenza virus strain and the half-maximal cytotoxic concentration (CC50) and inhibitory concentration (IC50) for SARS-CoV-2 virus. Most of the tested compounds demonstrated dose-dependent inhibition behavior. Both cytosine thioglycoside phosphoramidates 10a and 10b exhibited the most potent profiles with 83% and 86% inhibition at 0.25 µM concentration against H5N1 and IC50 values of 12.16 µM, 14.9 µM against SARS-CoV-2, respectively. Moreover, compounds 10a and 10b have been shown to have the highest selectivity index (SI) among all the tested compounds against SARS-CoV-2 with 28.2 and 26.9 values, respectively.

Abstract
Cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) enzymes regulate cell proliferation and transcriptional processes and can be considered as important targets for the development of anticancer and antimicrobial drugs. In this work, novel benzothiazolyl pyrazolopyrimidine carboxamide and benzothiazolyl pyrazolopyrimidine carbonitrile derivatives were synthesized and characterized. The synthetic process was carried out via the reaction of ylidine benzothiazole derivatives with pyrazolocarboxamide and pyrazolocarbonitrile through a Michael addition pathway. Docking studies were done against CDK2 and CDK9 enzymes and revealed that compound 8a showed high free energy of binding against CDK2 (-8.10 kcal/mol) while compound 15a showed the highest free energy of binding against CDK2 (-8.16 kcal/mol) and CDK9 (-7.87 kcal/mol). Molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to compare the stability of binding of the most active compound 15a and the potent reference drugs roscovitine and dinaciclib. A CDK enzyme assay was done against CDK2 and CDK9 for the previously mentioned top-ranked compounds, 8a and 15a. It was found that compound 15a was the most potent inhibitor for both enzymes with IC50 of 127 ± 1.01 nM and 65 ± 0.50 nM. The anticancer activity of the synthesized compounds was also determined by NCI against 60 cell lines. Compound 8a showed the highest cytotoxic activity against a large number of the tested cell lines. The antimicrobial activity of the synthesized compounds was determined against various gram positive and gram-negative bacteria as well as fungi. The results showed that compound 15a had the strongest antibacterial activity.

Abstract
Both six-membered rings of the fused heterocyclic system of the title compound display envelope conformations. Two hydrogen bonds involving the amino group lead to a double-layer structure. In the title compound, C22H20N2O2, both six-membered rings of the fused heterocyclic system display envelope conformations; the two carbon atoms bearing the methyl groups and the naphthyl substituent both lie outside the planes of the other atoms of each ring. In the crystal, the amino group forms hydrogen bonds of the types N—H⋯O=C and N—H⋯N≡C, leading to the formation of a double layer structure propagating parallel to the bc plane. Weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π interactions may reinforce the layers.

Abstract
Cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) are a group of enzymes involved in different phases of the cell cycle. In addition, it has been reported that CDK9 could be used as a crucial target for the development of antiviral drugs such as purine analogues; roscovitine and dinaciclib. A new series of benzothiazolyl pyrazolopyrimidine carboxamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their antiviral activity against avian influenza "bird flu" (H5N1). The novel compounds were synthesized via the reaction of pyrazolo carboxamide derivatives with different derivatives of ylidine benzothiazole. The reaction proceeded via a Michael addition pathway. Antiviral activity was determined using a plaque reduction assay against the H5N1 virus. Five compounds showed the highest inhibitory activity in the range of 61.6 to 71.6% at 0.1 μmol/mL. Based on a molecular docking study, an enzyme assay was carried out against CDK9 for the previously mentioned top-ranked compounds. It was found that compound 11f was the most potent inhibitor of CDK9 with an IC50 of 0.062 μmol/mL. A QSAR model was built to determine the hidden feature responsible for the biological activity of the novel compounds. It was found that two sets of descriptors, 3 D Potential energy descriptors and 2 D Atom Counts and Bond Counts descriptors, were correlated to a linear model with RMSE and r2 coefficient values of 0.75 and 0.80, respectively. A molecular dynamic simulations study of 11f over 10 ns against dinaciclib showed that both 11f and dinaciclib achieved equilibrium at 2 Å.Supplemental data for this article is available online at https://doi.org/10.1080/15257770.2022.2059674 .

Abstract
Aims The current study aimed to synthesize novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines based on 5-aminopyrazoles 3, evaluate their antimicrobial activity, and study the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for the most active compounds. In addition, molecular docking studies and RNA polymerase inhibitory activity were determined. Background Starting with our previously reported 5-aminopyrazoles 3, a number of novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines were synthesized. Due to the similarity of pyrazolopyrimidine derivatives with the purine systems, pyrazolopyrimidines are important in many different biological applications, most notably as anti-tumor, anti-bacterial, and hepatitis C virus inhibitors. The pharmaceutical applications of the pyrazolopyrimidine derivatives were explained in several approved drugs like Indiplon, Zaloplan, and Ocinaplon. Objective To prepare a novel antimicrobial agent, namely pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine, reveal their structures using different spectral data, evaluate the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for the most active compounds, and determine both the molecular docking and the RNA polymerase inhibitory activity. Methods A number of different pyrazolopyrimidines namely 2-(phenylamino)-6,11-dihydrobenzo[g]pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline-3-carboxamides (5a-c), (E)-5,7-dimethyl-2-(phenylamino)-6-(phenyldiazenyl)pyrazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamides (7a-c), 7-amino-2-(phenylamino)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamides (11a-f), 7-amino-2-(phenylamino)-5-(2-thienyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamides (14-f) and ethyl 7-amino-3-carbamoyl-2-(phenylamino)-5-(4-pyridyl)pyrazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylate derivatives (14g-i) were synthesized through the reaction of 5-aminopyrazoles 3 with a variety of chemical reagents. On the other hand, the evaluation of the antimicrobial activity for all the prepared compounds was screened through different strain as Gram-positive bacteria such as staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus mutans, and Gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and klebsiella. The antifungal activity was determined by Candids Albicans fungal strain, and the MIC of the most active compounds was measured. The molecular docking was recorded, and the RNA polymerase inhibitory activity was estimated for the high docking score compounds. Results Compounds 5a, 5b, 5c, 7a, 7b, 7c, 11d, 14b and 14h were the most active compounds against some of the bacterial and fungal tested strains. MIC was determined for the most active tested compounds. As an antimicrobial agent, compound 7b was the most potent, with a high docking score and RNA polymerase inhibitory activity (IC50= 0.213 µg/ml) compared to Rifampicin (IC50= 0.244 µg/ml). The reactivity of the latter compound was attributed to the presence of 4-Br-C6H4 moiety. The results demonstrated that docking studies on the most active compounds in the RNA polymerase active site were consistent with in vitro assays . Conclusion The resultant novel bioactive pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives were synthesized based on 5-aminopyrazole derivatives 3. The current study evaluated the antimicrobial activity for all the prepared compounds, followed by the determination of the MIC for the most potent active compounds. The molecular docking study was performed, and it was appropriate with the in vitro activity. The RNA polymerase inhibitory activity was assessed for the most active antimicrobial compounds with a high docking score (7b, 7c, 14a, 14b, 14e, 14i). Compound 7b was the most potent compound inhibiting RNA polymerase enzyme compared to the reference drug Rifampicin. The novel prepared heterocyclic systems have remarkable importance in the whole fields, particularly in biological and pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
In the title compound, C18H17N3O4S, the pyrazole ring is planar, with the sulfur atom lying 0.558 (1) Å out of the ring plane. The NH2 group is involved in an intra-molecular hydrogen bond to a sulfonyl oxygen atom; its other hydrogen atom forms an asymmetric three-centre hydrogen bond to the two oxygen atoms of the -O-CH2-C=O- grouping, via the 21 screw axis, forming a ribbon structure parallel to the b axis. Translationally adjacent, coplanar ribbons form a layer parallel to (10).

Abstract
In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C16H13N3O2S, one hydrazinic nitro-gen atom is essentially planar, but the other is slightly pyramidalized. The torsion angle about the hydrazinic bond is 66.44 (15)°. Both hydrazinic hydrogen atoms lie anti-periplanar to the oxygen of the adjacent carbonyl group. The mol-ecular packing is a layer structure determined by two classical hydrogen bonds, N-H⋯O=C and N-H⋯Nthia-zole. The space group is P1 with Z = 1, which is unusual for an achiral organic compound.

Abstract
A class of pyrimidine thioglycoside analogs (6a-h) were synthesized from a reaction of 2-cyano-3,3-dimercapto-N-arylacrylamide (2a-d) and thiourea to produce the corresponding 4-amino-2-mercapto-N-arylpyrimidine-5-carboxamide derivatives (3a-d), and stirring of compounds (3a-d) with peracylated α-d-gluco- and galacto-pyranosyl bromides (4a,b) in DMF-sodium hydride gave the corresponding pyrimidine thioglycosides (5a-h). Deacetylation of the pyrimidine thioglycosides via a reaction with dry NH3/MeOH gave the corresponding free pyrimidine thioglycosides (6a-h). The compounds have been characterized by 13C NMR, 1H NMR, and IR. Pharmacological evaluation of compounds 3a-d, 5a-h, and 6a-h in vitro against SARS-COV-2 and Avian Influenza H5N1 virus strains revealed that some compounds possess interesting activity.

Abstract
In the title compound, C14H17N3O5S, the five-membered ring is essentially planar. The substituents at the nitro-gen atoms subtend a C-N-N-S torsion angle of -95.52 (6)°. The amino group forms an intra-molecular hydrogen bond to a sulfonyl oxygen atom; two inter-molecular hydrogen bonds from the amino group, to the other S=O group and to the oxo substituent, form a layer structure parallel to the ab plane. The structure determination confirms that the title compound is N- rather than O-alkyl-ated.

Abstract
The title compounds 3a, C14H13N5OS, and 3b, C13H12N6OS, both show an E configuration about the N=C bond and a planar NH2 group. The mol-ecules, which only differ in the presence of a phenyl (in 3a) or pyridyl (in 3b) substituent, are closely similar except for the different orientations of these groups. The amino hydrogen atoms form classical hydrogen bonds; in 3a the acceptors are the oxygen atom and the cyano nitro-gen atom, leading to ribbons of mol-ecules parallel to the b axis, whereas in 3b the acceptors are the oxygen atom and the pyridyl nitro-gen, leading to a layer structure perpendicular to (01).

Abstract
Novel class of amino pyrimidine thioglycoside derivatives were designed from sodium 2-cyano-3-(arylamino)prop-1-ene-1,1-bis(thiolate) 1a-d and guanidine hydrochloride 2 to afford the corresponding sodium 2,6-diamino-5-aryl-1,2-dihydropyrimidine-4-thiolate 3a-d, which in coupling with peracylated α-D-gluco- and galactopyranosyl bromides 5a,b in DMF gave the corresponding pyrimidine thioglycosides 6a-h. Acidification of 2,6-diamino-5-aryl-1,2-dihydropyrimidine-4-thiolate salts 3a-d with hydrochloric acid formed the corresponding pyrimidine-4-thioles 4a-d. The latter were stirred with peracetylated halo sugars α-D-gluco- and galacto-pyranosyl bromides in sodium hydride and DMF to yield the pyrimidine thioglycosides 6a-h. Deacetylation of the pyrimidine thioglycosides gave the corresponding free pyrimidine thioglycosides 7a-h. The compounds were characterized by 13C NMR, 1H NMR, and IR. The pyrimidine thioglycosides 6a-h and free pyrimidine thioglycosides 7a-h were tested against H5N1 virus strain and exhibited high to moderate activity.

Abstract
In this article, a series of benzothiazole-bearing N-sulfonamide 2-pyridone derivatives were synthesized via the reaction of benzothiazole sulfonylhydrazide with sodium salts of both (hydroxymethylene) cycloalkanones and unsaturated ketones, as well as ethoxymethylene derivatives. The structures of the resultant compounds were confirmed using IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 1H-1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), 1H-13C heteronuclear multiple bond coherence (HMBC), and 1H-13C heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence (HSQC) spectral analysis and elemental analysis. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated in vitro for their antiviral activities against the HSV-1, HAV HM175, HCVcc genotype 4, CBV4, and HAdV7 viruses. Additionally, the compounds were examined for their cytotoxic effect on five normal cell lines. It was observed that five compounds were found to possess viral reduction of 50% or more against CBV4 with significant IC50, CC50, and SI values. In the case of HSV-1 and HAV HM175 viruses, three compounds have shown more than 50% reduction, while in the case of HCVcc genotype 4 and HAdV7 viruses, only two compounds demonstrated more than 50% reduction. Furthermore, the physicochemical properties of the most active compounds were evaluated. The two most potent compounds against HSV-1 virus, 7e and 13a, were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against USP7. Docking studies using Molecular Operating Environment (MOE) were used to identify the interactions between 7e and 13a compounds and the active site of the USP7 enzyme.

Abstract
A new strategy for designing and assembling a novel class of functionalized pyridine-based benzothiazole and benzimidazole incorporating sulfonamide moieties was developed. The synthesis was carried out by reacting N-cyanoacetoarylsulfonylhydrazide with various electrophiles such as 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-3,3-bis(alkylthio)acrylonitriles and 2-(benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-3,3-bis(methylthio)-acrylonitriles, as well as 2-ethoxyl acrylonitrile derivatives. The synthesized compounds were tested for their antiviral and antimicrobial potency. Two of the synthesized compounds, 15c and 15d, showed more than 50% viral reduction against HSV-1 and CBV4, with significant IC50 and CC50 values. The two potent compounds 15c and 15d have also shown inhibitory activity against Hsp90α protein with IC50 values of 10.24 and 4.48 μg/mL, respectively. A combination of 15c and 15d with acyclovir has led to IC50 values that are lower than that of acyclovir alone. Molecular modeling studies were used to identify the interactions between the 15c and 15d compounds and the active site of Hsp90α enzyme. The antimicrobial investigation of the new compounds has also shown that 8b and 15d exhibited a higher inhibition zone (IZ) than sulfadiazine and gentamicin against Klebsiella pneumonia, whereas 9a showed higher IZ than ampicillin against Staphylococcus aureus. According to the enzyme assay study on dihydrofolate reductase, 9a was shown to be the most potent compound among all examined compounds.

Abstract
This study describes a new route to the synthesis of novel benzamide-based 5-aminopyrazoles and their corresponding pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine derivatives. Benzamide-based 5-aminopyrazoles were prepared through a reaction of benzoyl isothiocyanate with malononitrile in KOH-EtOH followed by alkylation with alkyl halides and then a reaction with hydrazine. In an attempt to react benzoyl isothiocyanate with ethyl cyanoacetate in KOH-EtOH followed by alkylation with methyl iodide at room temperature and then a reaction with hydrazine has resulted in the formation of 3-ethoxy-5-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole. The structures of the new compounds were characterized by mass spectroscopy, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy (IR), and X-ray analysis. The new compounds were tested in vitro for their anti-influenza A virus (subtype H5N1) activity. Among the synthesized compounds, eight compounds 3b, 4, 10b, 10c, 12a, 19, 21a, and 21b were found to possess significant antiviral activities against bird flu influenza (H5N1) with viral reduction in the range of 85-65%.

Stirring of the latter with peracetylated α-d-gluco- and galacto-pyranosyl bromides in DMF afforded the corresponding pyrimidine thioglycosides. On the other hand, treatment of 6-amino-5-aryl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyrimidine-4-thiolate salts with hydrochloric acid produced the corresponding pyrimidine-4-thioles, which on stirring with α-d-gluco- and galacto-pyranosyl bromides in sodium hydride and DMF gave the corresponding pyrimidine thioglycosides. Deacetylation of the protected pyrimidine thioglycosides gave the corresponding free pyrimidine thioglycosides. The synthesized compounds have been characterized by 13C NMR, 1H NMR, and IR spectroscopy. The pyrimidine thioglycosides and free pyrimidine thioglycosides were tested against avian influenza H5N1 virus strain and exhibited highest to moderate activity.

Abstract
This research reports a novel method for synthesizing a new class of indeno[1,2-b]pyridine thioglycosides. This series of indenopyridine thioglycosides was designed by the reaction of (E)-2-cyano-3-(furan/or thiophene-2-yl)prop-2-enethioamide 1a or 1b with 1-indanone 2 to give the corresponding 2-thiooxo-1H-indeno[1,2-b]pyridine-3-carbonitriles 3a,b. The latter compounds were treated with peracetylated sugar bromides 5 in KOH-acetone to give the corresponding indenopyridine thioglycosides 6a-h. Ammonolysis of the protected indenopyridine thioglycosides 6a-h gave the corresponding free indenopyridine thioglycosides 7a-h. The compounds have been characterized by 13C NMR, 1H NMR and IR spectra.

Abstract
Sulfonamides and trimethoprim (TMP) drugs are normally used to inhibit the action of dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS) and dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) enzymes, respectively. In this work, a new series of N-sulfonamide 2-pyridone derivatives that combine the inhibitory activities of DHPS and DHFR into one molecule were synthesized and evaluated for its in vitro antimicrobial activity and the ability to inhibit the action of both enzymes simultaneously. The synthesis was carried out via the reaction of novel benzothiazol sulfonylhydrazide with ketene dithioacetal derivatives, and the structures of the resultant compounds were confirmed using spectral and elemental techniques. Among the synthesized compounds, five compounds 3b, 5a, 5b, 11a, and 11b were found to possess significant antimicrobial activities against tested bacterial and fungi strains. The compounds were also examined for their cytotoxicity on HFB4 human dermal fibroblast cell line using MTT assay. The in vitro enzyme assay study of these compounds against DHPS and DHFR enzymes showed that compound 11a was the most potent inhibitor against both enzymes with IC50 values of 2.76 and 0.20 μg/mL, respectively. Docking studies showed that this compound has occupied both the p-aminobenzoic acid and pterin binding pockets of DHPS as well as the pterin binding pocket of DHFR. The results of these investigations confirmed that compound 11a is the most potent dual DHPS/DHFR inhibitor.

Abstract
In the title compound, C13H15N3O5S, the two rings face each other in a 'V' form at the S atom, with one N-H⋯O=S and one C-H⋯O=S contact from the pyrazolyl substituents to the sulfonyl group. Two classical hydrogen bonds from the amine group, one of the form N-H⋯O=S and one N-H⋯O=Coxo, link the mol-ecules to form layers parallel to the bc plane.

Abstract
A series of novel substituted 2-pyrimidylbenzothiazoles incorporating either sulfonamide moieties or the amino group at C2 of the pyrimidine ring were synthesized and evaluated for its antiviral potency. The novel synthesis of the ring system was carried out by reacting guanidine or N-arylsulfonated guanidine with different derivatives of ylidene benzothiazole based on Michael addition pathways. The antiviral activity of the newly synthesized compounds was examined by a plaque reduction assay against HSV-1, CBV4, HAV HM 175, HCVcc genotype 4 viruses, and HAdV7. In the case of HSV-1, it was determined that 5 out of the 21 synthesized compounds exhibited superior viral reduction in the range of 70-90% with significant IC50, CC50, and SI values as compared with acyclovir. In the case of CBV4, nine compounds have shown more than 50% reduction. Comparable results were obtained for seven of these synthesized compounds when evaluated against HAV with only a couple of them showing 50% reduction or more against HCVcc genotype 4. Remarkably, one compound, 9a, has shown broad action against all five examined viruses, rendering it as potentially an effective antiviral agent. The five potent compounds 9a, 9b, 14b, 14g, and 14h against HSV-1 have also presented inhibitory activity against the Hsp90α protein with IC50 in the range of 4.87-10.47 μg/mL. Interestingly, a combination of the potent synthesized compounds with acyclovir led to IC50 values lower than that of acyclovir alone. The potent compounds 9a, 9b, 14b, 14g, and 14h were also docked inside the active site of Hsp90α to assess the interaction pattern between the tested compounds and the active site of the protein.

Abstract
In the title com-pound, C20H26N2O9S, the S atom is attached equatorially to the sugar ring. The C-S bond lengths are unequal, with S-Cs = 1.8018 (13) Å and S-Cp = 1.7662 (13) Å (s = sugar and p = pyrimid-yl). In the crystal, a system of three weak hydrogen bonds, sharing an oxygen acceptor, links the mol-ecules to form chains propagating parallel to the b-axis direction.

Abstract
Background: A series of novel pyrazolopyrimidine and pyrazololpyridine thioglycosides were synthesized and confirmed via their spectral analyses. Purpose: To evaluate the effect of these anti-metabolic compounds against proliferation of Huh-7 and Mcf-7 as in vitro models of human liver and breast cancers, respectively. Vero cells were used as an example of normal green monkey kidney cells. Methods: The most promising compound was subjected to a nanoformulation by its encapsulation into chitosan nanoparticles to increase its anti-cancerous activity. Nanoformulation was confirmed by TEM and FT-IR to ensure encapsulation and screened for their cytotoxicity against Huh-7 and Mcf-7 cells using MTT colorimetric assay and morphological examination. Genotoxic effect was performed by cellular DNA fragmentation assay. Simulated CompuSyn software (linear interaction effect) was conducted to predict the possible synergistic effect of nanocomposite as anticancerous activity. Apoptotic effect was further analyzed by detection of apoptotic proteins using ELISA assay. Results: The nano preparation was successfully prepared by encapsulation of compound 14 into chitosan nanoparticles, controlled to a size at 105 nm and zeta charges at 40.2 mV. Treatment of Huh-7 and Mcf-7 showed that compound 14 was the most cytotoxic compound on both cancer cell lines where IC50 was 24.59 (9.836 μg/mL) and 12.203 (4.8812 μg/mL) on Huh-7 and Mcf-7 respectively. But IC50 of the nano preparation was 37.19 and 30.68 μg/mL on Huh-7 and Mcf-7, respectively, indicating its aggressiveness on human breast cancer cells as confirmed by DNA fragmentation assay and theoretically by CompuSyn tool. Conclusion: A novel series of pyrazolopyrimidine thioglycosides and pyrazolopyridine thioglycosides were synthesized. Nanoformulation of compound 14 into chitosan nanoparticles demonstrated anticancer activity and can be used as a drug delivery system, but further studies are still required.

Abstract
The title compound, C10H11N3O, crystallizes in the triclinic space group P\overline{1} with Z′ = 2. The two independent molecules (A and B) differ in the orientation of the phenyl rings with respect to the plane of the triazine ring, with an interplanar angle of 11.45 (6)° in molecule A and 19.71 (5)° in molecule B, in the opposite sense. In the crystal, classical N—H...N hydrogen bonds cross-link the molecules to form chains parallel to the b axis. Two additional `weak' C—H...O hydrogen bonds link the chains to form layers parallel to (101).
