Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of sulfinate addition-responsive fluorescent molecules are described. We found that addition reaction of sulfinates to naphthalimide-substituted azocarboxylates afforded the corresponding sulfonyl hydrazides with high fluorescence quantum yields (up to 0.91 in THF and 0.54 in methanol), which exhibited a large Stokes shift (105 nm) in protic methanol solvent, while the unsubstituted hydrazide and the sulfonyl-position isomer showed no fluorescence in polar solvents.

Abstract
In the present study, numerous acridine derivatives A1-A20 were synthesized via aromatic nucleophilic substitution (SNAr) reaction of 9-chloroacridine with carbonyl hydrazides, amines, or phenolic derivatives depending upon facile, novel, and eco-friendly approaches (Microwave and ultrasonication assisted synthesis). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated using spectroscopic methods. The title products were assessed for their antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antiproliferative activities using numerous assays. Promisingly, the investigated compounds mainstream revealed promising antibacterial and anticancer activities. Thereafter, the investigated compounds' expected mode of action was debated by using an array of in silico studies. Compounds A2 and A3 were the most promising antimicrobial agents, while compounds A2, A5, and A7 revealed the most cytotoxic activities. Accordingly, RMSD, RMSF, Rg, and SASA analyses of compounds A2 and A3 were performed, and MMPBSA was calculated. Lastly, the ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity) analyses of the novel acridine derivatives were investigated. The tested compounds' existing screening results afford an inspiring basis leading to developing new compelling antimicrobial and anticancer agents based on the acridine scaffold.

Abstract
A convenient and selective approach to 13,17-secoestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-oic acid [N'-arylcarbothioamido]hydrazides and hybrid molecules containing secosteroid and 1,2,4-triazole fragments was disclosed and these novel types of secosteroids were screened for cytotoxicity against hormone-dependent human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. Most of secosteroid-1,2,4-triazole hybrids showed significant cytotoxic effect comparable or superior to that of the reference drug cisplatin. Hit secosteroid-1,2,4-triazole hybrids 4b and 4h were characterized by high cytotoxicity and good selectivity towards MCF-7 breast cancer cells. PARP cleavage (marker of apoptosis) and ERα and cyclin D1 downregulation were discovered in MCF-7 cells treated with lead secosteroid-1,2,4-triazole hybrid 4b. The synthesized secosteroids may be considered as new promising anticancer agents.

Abstract
An elegant approach to unknown secosteroid-quinoline hybrids is disclosed. A series of 13,17-secoestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-oic acid [N'-(iso)quinolylmethylene]hydrazides was prepared and these novel type of secosteroids was screened for antiproliferative activity against estrogen-responsive human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. Most of the synthesized compounds showed a cytotoxic effect superior to that of reference drug cisplatin; the lead compound exhibits the highest activity with the IC50 value of about 0.8 μM and is 7 times more active than cisplatin. A high selectivity index was observed for the hit 13,17-secoestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-oic acid [N'-quinolylmethylene]hydrazides 2a and 2c. Compounds 2a and 2c evaluated in luciferase reporter assays exhibited high antiestrogenic potency which was superior to that of tamoxifen. These hit compounds were characterized by high activity against MCF-7 cells that retained towards multidrug-resistant NCI/ADR-RES cells.

Abstract
Clk1 kinase is a key modulator of the pre-mRNA alternative splicing machinery which has been proposed as a promising target for treatment of various tumour types, Duchenne's muscular dystrophy and viral infections such as HIV-1 and influenza. Most reported Clk1 inhibitors showed significant co-inhibition of Clk2 and Clk4 in particular, which limits their usefulness for deciphering the individual roles of the Clk1 isoform in physiology and disease. Herein, we present a new 5-methoxybenzothiophene scaffold, enabling for the first time selective inhibition of Clk1 even among the isoenzymes. The 3,5-difluorophenyl and 3,5-dichlorophenyl derivatives 26a and 27a (Clk1 IC50 = 1.4 and 1.7 nM, respectively) showed unprecedented selectivity factors of 15 and 8 over Clk4, and selectivity factors of 535 and 84 over Clk2. Furthermore, 26a and 27a exhibited good growth inhibitory activity in T24 cancer cells and long metabolic half-lives of almost 1 and 6.4 h, respectively. The overall favorable profile of our new Clk1 inhibitors suggests that they may be used in in vivo disease models or as probes to unravel the physiological or pathogenic roles of the Clk1 isoenzyme.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is an urgent need for new antitubercular compounds. Modification of antimycobacterial isonicotinohydrazide at hydrazide N2 provided antimycobacterial active compounds. OBJECTIVE Combining this scaffold with various aliphatic amines that are also frequently present in antitubercular compounds, we have designed, synthesized, and evaluated twenty-three N- (cyclo)alkyl-2-(2-isonicotinoylhydrazineylidene)propanamides and their analogues as potential antimycobacterial compounds. By increasing lipophilicity, we intended to facilitate the penetration of mycobacteria's highly impermeable cell wall. METHODS The target amides were prepared via condensation of isoniazid and pyruvic acid, followed by carbodiimide-mediated coupling with yields from 35 to 98 %. The compounds were screened against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and two nontuberculous mycobacteria (M. avium, M. kansasii). RESULTS All the derivatives exhibited low minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) from ≤0.125 and 2 μM against M. tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria, respectively. The most active molecules were substituted by a longer n-alkyl from C8 to C14. Importantly, the compounds showed comparable or even several-fold lower MIC than parent isonicotinohydrazide. Based on in silico predictions, a vast majority of the derivatives share suitable physicochemical properties and structural features for drug-likeness. CONCLUSION Presented amides are promising antimycobacterial agents.

Abstract
With the aim to discover new antituberculous molecules, three novel series of 23 hydroxamic acids, 13 hydrazides, and 9O-alkyl/O-acyl protected hydroxamic acid derivatives have been synthesized, and fully characterized by spectral 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HRMS) analysis. These compounds were further biologically screened for their in vitro antibacterial activities against three pathogenic mycobacteria - M. abscessus S and R, M. marinum, and M. tuberculosis - as well as for their toxicity towards murine macrophages by the resazurin microtiter assay (REMA). Among the 45 derivatives, 17 compounds (3 hydroxamic acids, 9 hydrazides, and 5O-alkyl/O-acyl protected hydroxamic acids) were nontoxic against murine macrophages. When tested for their antibacterial activity, hydroxamic acid 9 h was found to be the most potent inhibitor against M. abscessus S and R only. Regarding hydrazide series, only 7h was active against M. abscessus R, M. marinum and M. tuberculosis; while the O-acyl protected hydroxamic acid derivatives 14d and 15d displayed promising antibacterial activity against both M. marinum and M. tuberculosis. Since such hydroxamic- and hydrazide-chelating groups have been reported to impair the activity of the peptide deformylase, in silico molecular docking studies in M. tuberculosis peptide deformylase enzyme active site were further performed with 7h in order to predict the possible interaction mode and binding energy of this molecule at the molecular level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hydrazide-hydrazones have been known as scaffold with various biological activities including inhibition of acetyl- (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE). Cholinesterase inhibitors are mainstays of dementias' treatment. OBJECTIVE Twenty-five iodinated hydrazide-hydrazones and their analogues were designed as potential central AChE and BuChE inhibitors. METHODS Hydrazide-hydrazones were synthesized from 4-substituted benzohydrazides and 2-/4- hydroxy-3,5-diiodobenzaldehydes. The compounds were investigated in vitro for their potency to inhibit AChE from electric eel and BuChE from equine serum using Ellman's method. We calculated also physicochemical and structural parameters for CNS delivery. RESULTS The derivatives exhibited a moderate dual inhibition with IC50 values ranging from 15.1-140.5 and 35.5 to 170.5 μmol.L-1 for AChE and BuChE, respectively. Generally, the compounds produced a balanced or more potent inhibition of AChE. N'-[(E)-(4-Hydroxy-3,5-diiodophenyl)methylidene]-4- nitrobenzohydrazide 2k and 4-fluoro-N'-(2-hydroxy-3,5-diiodobenzyl)benzohydrazide 3a were the most potent inhibitors of AChE and BuChE, respectively. Structure-activity relationships were established, and molecular docking studies confirmed interaction with enzymes. CONCLUSION Many novel hydrazide-hydrazones showed lower IC50 values than rivastigmine against AChE and some of them were comparable for BuChE to this drug used for the treatment of dementia. They interact with cholinesterases via non-covalent binding into the active site. Based on the BOILEDEgg approach, the majority of the derivatives met the criteria for blood-brain-barrier permeability.

Abstract
Hydrazide-hydrazones have been described as a scaffold with antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities as well as iodinated compounds. A resistance rate of bacterial and fungal pathogens has increased considerably. That is why we synthesized and screened twenty-two iodinated hydrazide-hydrazones 1 and 2, ten 1,2-diacylhydrazines 3 and their three reduced analogues 4 for their antibacterial, antifungal, and cytotoxic properties. Hydrazide-hydrazones were prepared by condensation of 4-substituted benzohydrazides with 2-/4-hydroxy-3,5-diiodobenzaldehydes, diacylhydrazines from identical benzohydrazides and 3,5-diiodosalicylic acid via its chloride. These compounds were investigated in vitro against eight bacterial and eight fungal strains. The derivatives were found potent antibacterial agents against Gram-positive cocci including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus with the lowest values of minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of 7.81 µM. Four compounds inhibited also human pathogenic fungi (MIC of ≥1.95 µM). The derivatives had different degrees of cytotoxicity for HepG2 and HK-2 cell lines (IC50 values from 11.72 and 26.80 µM, respectively). Importantly, normal human cells exhibited lower sensitivity. The apoptotic effect was also investigated. In general, the presence of 3,5-diiodosalicylidene scaffold (compounds 1) is translated into enhanced both antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties whereas its 4-hydroxy isomers 2 share a low biological activity. N'-Benzoyl-2-hydroxy-3,5-diiodobenzohydrazides 3 have a non-homogeneous activity profile. Focusing on 4-substituted benzohydrazide part, the presence of an electron-withdrawing group (F, Cl, CF3, NO2) was found to be beneficial.

Abstract
Design of chemically novel, biologically potent small heterocyclic molecules with anticancer activities, which targets the enzyme heparanase has gained prominent clinical interest. We have synthesized a novel class of carboxamide derivatives by coupling various substituted aromatic acid hydrazides and triazoleamine with pyrrolidine carboxylic acid by using coupling agents. The synthesized compounds are characterized by spectroscopic techniques such as FT-IR, HRMS and NMR. These compounds are investigated for cytotoxicity on different cancer cell lines and heparanase inhibitory activity. Most of them showed moderate heparanase inhibitory activity and good cytotoxicity.

Abstract
The current study demonstrates the synthesis of coumarin-triazole hybrids 8 (a-e) in four steps starting from substituted salicylaldehyde 1 (a-e), and diethyl malonate 2. The spectroscopic studies provide the structure proofs of the new compounds, and the molecular structure of an intermediate 3a by crystallographic studies. The crystal structure analysis revealed the C–H...O, C–H... π, C–O...π and π...π molecular interactions. Further, the intermolecular interactions were quantified using Hirshfeld surface analysis and the DFT method B3LYP functional with 6–311++ G (d,p) basis set was employed to optimize the molecular geometry. The synthesized new coumarin-triazole hybrids, 8 (a–e) were screened for their α-amylase inhibitory potentials, and the results suggest that amongst the series, compounds 8c, and 8e show the promising inhibition of the enzyme, and might act as lead molecules for anti-diabetic activities. To understand the mode of action in silico molecular docking and ADME screening were performed.

Abstract
The carbon-centered isonicotinic acyl radical of isoniazid (INH), a widely-used frontline anti-tuberculosis drug, has been considered to play a critical role in inhibiting Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but not fully identified. Here we show that this radical intermediate can be unequivocally characterized by complementary applications of ESR spin-trapping and HPLC/MS methods by employing N-tert-butyl-α-phenylnitrone (PBN) as the suitable spin-trapping agent, which can form the most stable radical adduct. More importantly, for the first time, analogous carbon-centered acyl radicals and their respective NAD+ adducts have also been detected and identified from its two isomers (nicotinic acid hydrazide and 2-pyridinecarbohydrazide) and benzhydrazide which are structurally-related to INH, but not by 2-chloroisonicotinohydrazide. This study represents the first unequivocal identification of the carbon-centered acyl radicals of INH and other hydrazide analogs by both ESR spin-trapping and HPLC/MS methods, which may have broad biomedical and toxicological significance for future research for more efficient hydrazide anti-tuberculosis drugs.

Abstract
In order to improve the previously observed antichagasic activity of Cu(II) complexes containing 2-chlorobenzhydrazide (2-CH), we report herein the synthesis and anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity of novel copper complexes containing 2-methoxybenzhydrazide (2-MH), 4-methoxybenzhydrazide (4-MH) and three α-diimine ligands, namely, 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 2,2-bipyridine (bipy) and 4-4'-dimethoxy-2-2'-bipyridine (dmb). Two of these complexes showed higher in vitro anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity when compared to benznidazole, the main drug used in Chagas disease treatment. One of them, the copper complex with 4-MH and dmb, [Cu(4-MH)(dmb)(ClO4)2], exhibited a higher selectivity index than that recommended for preclinical studies. Considering this observation, complex [Cu(4-MH)(dmb)(ClO4)2] was selected for preliminary in vivo assays, which verified that this compound was able to reduce parasitemia by 64% at the peak of infection. Further investigations were performed on all compounds. The Cu(II) complexes bind to ct-DNA with Kb values in the range of 103-104 M-1, with [Cu(4-MH)(dmb)(ClO4)2] showing the highest Kb value (1.45 × 104 M-1). Molecular docking simulations predicted that [Cu(4-MH)(dmb)(ClO4)2] binds in the minor groove of the double helix of ct-DNA and forms one hydrogen bond.

Abstract
The main aim of this research was the synthesis, spectral identification and in vitro antimicrobial evaluation of new hydrazides and hydrazide-hydrazones of 2,3-dihalogen substituted propionic acids. New hydrazides were obtained by the substitution reaction of appropriate ethyl esters of 2,3-dihalogen substituted propionic acids with hydrazine hydrate. Then obtained hydrazides were subjected to condensation reaction with various aldehydes which yielded with new hydrazide-hydrazone derivatives. All obtained compounds were identified on the basis of spectral methods (1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR) and in vitro screened against a panel of bacterial and fungal strains according to EUCAST and CLSI guidelines.

Abstract
Tetrazoles are small functional heterocycles that are suited to serve simultaneously as aromatic platform for diversity and as functional interaction motif. Furthermore, the tetrazole ring and its deprotonated tetrazolate counterpart are metal ion complexing ligands that possess a rich variety of binding and bridging modes. We recently demonstrated that fragments containing the tetrazole moiety and a metal chelating hydrazide group are well suited to discover selective screening hits with high ligand efficiency for a given protein target. Here, we report the synthesis and characterization of new polydentate tetrazole-containing screening compounds and their synthetic precursors as well as their deposition in a multipurpose screening library in the frame of the EU-OPENSCREEN network. The pure and well-characterized screening compounds could be useful to aid drug discovery programs for multiple or hitherto undruggable targets by enclosure of under-represented tetrazole derivatives.

Abstract
Based on the anti-mycobacterial activity of various acid hydrazides, a series of substituted 3-hydrazinyl-3-oxo-propanamides has been designed. The target compounds have been synthesized from diethylmalonate using substituted amines and hydrazine hydrate in ethanol. Computational studies and anti-tubercular activity screenings were undertaken to test their inhibitory effect on protein kinase PknB from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Binding poses of the compounds were energetically favorable and showed good interactions with active site residues. Designed molecules obey the Lipinski's rule of 5 and gave moderate to good drug likeness score. Among the sixteen compounds (1-16) taken for in silico and in vitro studies, 3 compounds (11, 12 and 15) have shown good binding energies along with exhibiting good anti-tubercular activity and thus may be considered as a good inhibitors of PknB.

Abstract
Cholinesterases (ChEs) play a vital role in the regulation of cholinergic transmission. The inhibition of ChEs is
considered to be involved in increasing acetylcholine level in the brain and thus has been implicated in the treatment of
Alzheimer’s disease. We have designed and synthesized a series of novel indole derivatives and screened them for inhibition
of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Most of the tested compounds exhibited inhibitory
activity against AChE and BChE. Among them 4f and 6e showed the highest AChE inhibitory activity with
IC50 91.21±0.06 and 68.52±0.04 μM, respectively. However compound 5a exhibited the highest inhibitory activity against
BChE (IC50 55.21±0.12 μM).

Abstract
The performance of two QSAR methodologies, namely Multiple Linear Regressions (MLR) and Neural Networks (NN), towards the modeling and prediction of antitubercular activity was evaluated and compared. A data set of 173 potentially active compounds belonging to the hydrazide family and represented by 96 descriptors was analyzed. Models were built with Multiple Linear Regressions (MLR), single Feed-Forward Neural Networks (FFNNs), ensembles of FFNNs and Associative Neural Networks (AsNNs) using four different data sets and different types of descriptors. The predictive ability of the different techniques used were assessed and discussed on the basis of different validation criteria and results show in general a better performance of AsNNs in terms of learning ability and prediction of antitubercular behaviors when compared with all other methods. MLR have, however, the advantage of pinpointing the most relevant molecular characteristics responsible for the behavior of these compounds against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The best results for the larger data set (94 compounds in training set and 18 in test set) were obtained with AsNNs using seven descriptors (R(2) of 0.874 and RMSE of 0.437 against R(2) of 0.845 and RMSE of 0.472 in MLRs, for test set). Counter-Propagation Neural Networks (CPNNs) were trained with the same data sets and descriptors. From the scrutiny of the weight levels in each CPNN and the information retrieved from MLRs, a rational design of potentially active compounds was attempted. Two new compounds were synthesized and tested against M. tuberculosis showing an activity close to that predicted by the majority of the models.

Abstract
ABSTRACT A variety of N'-[4-[(substituted imino)methyl]benzylidene]-substituted benzohydrazides have been synthesized and evaluated for antimicrobial and anticancer potential. Results from testing of antimicrobial activity indicated the most potent antimicrobial agents had pMIC am = 1.51. The synthesized compounds were bacteriostatic and fungistatic in action. Results from evaluation of antiviral activity indicated that none of the synthesized hydrazide derivatives inhibited viral replication at sub-toxic concentrations. Results from anti-HIV screening against HIV-2 strain ROD indicated that one compound was more potent (IC 50 ≥ 1 μg/cm3) than the standard drug nevirapine (IC 50 ≥ 4 μg/cm3) and another was equipotent (IC 50 ≥ 4 μg/cm3). The most effective anticancer agent against both HCT116 and MCF7 cancer cell lines had IC 50 = 19 and 18 μg/cm3, respectively. QSAR analysis indicated the importance of Wiener index (W) and energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) in describing the antimicrobial activity of the synthesized compounds.
