Design, Synthesis and Bioactivity Evaluation of Novel ?-carboline 1,3,4-oxadiazole Derivatives.

ABSTRACT: A series of novel ?-carboline 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were designed and synthesized, and the in vitro cytotoxic activity against Sf9 cells and growth inhibitory activity against Spodoptera litura were evaluated. Bioassay results showed that most of these compounds exhibited excellent in vitro cytotoxic activity. Especially, compound 37 displayed the best efficacy in vitro (IC50 = 3.93 ?M), and was five-fold more potent than camptothecin (CPT) (IC50 = 18.95 ?M). Moreover, compounds 5 and 37 could induce cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest and stimulate Sf-caspase-1 activation in Sf9 cells. In vivo bioassay also demonstrated that compounds 5 and 37 could significantly inhibit larvae growth of S. litura with decreasing the weight of larvae and pupae. Based on these bioassay results, compounds 5 and 37 emerged as lead compounds for the development of potential insect growth inhibitions.

Synthesis and Anticancer Evaluation of New 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Derivatives.

Project description:In order to develop novel chemotherapeutic agents with potent anticancer activities, a series of new 2,5-diaryl/heteroaryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were designed and synthesized. The structures of the new compounds were established using elemental analyses, IR and NMR spectral data. The compounds were evaluated for their anticancer potential on two standardized human cell lines, HT-29 (colon adenocarcinoma) and MDA-MB-231 (breast adenocarcinoma). Cytotoxicity was measured by MTS assay, while cell cycle arrest and apoptosis assays were conducted using a flow cytometer, the results showing that the cell line MDA-MB-231 is more sensitive to the compounds' action. The results of the predictive studies using the PASS application and the structural similarity analysis indicated STAT3 and miR-21 as the most probable pharmacological targets for the new compounds. The promising effect of compound 3e, 2-[2-(phenylsulfanylmethyl)phenyl]-5-(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole, especially on the MDA-MB-231 cell line motivates future studies to improve the anticancer profile and to reduce the toxicological risks. It is worth noting that 3e produced a low toxic effect in the D. magna 24 h assay and the predictive studies on rat acute toxicity suggest a low degree of toxic risks.

Synthesis and Antibacterial Evaluation of Novel 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Derivatives Containing Sulfonate/Carboxylate Moiety.

Project description:Abstract: In order to discover new lead compounds with high antibacterial activity, a series of new derivatives were designed and synthesized by introducing a sulfonate or carboxylate moiety into the 1,3,4-oxadiazole structure. Antibacterial activity against two phytopathogens, Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac), was assayed in vitro. The preliminary results indicated that ten compounds including 4a-1-4a-4 and 4a-11-4a-16 had good antibacterial activity against Xoo, with EC50 values ranging from 50.1-112.5 µM, which was better than those of Bismerthiazol (253.5 µM) and Thiodiazole copper (467.4 µM). Meanwhile, 4a-1, 4a-2, 4a-3 and 4a-4 demonstrated good inhibitory effect against Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri with EC50 values around 95.8-155.2 µM which were better than those of bismerthiazol (274.3 µM) and thiodiazole copper (406.3 µM). In addition, in vivo protection activity of compound 4a-2 and 4a-3 against rice bacterial leaf blight was 68.6% and 62.3%, respectively, which were better than bismerthiazol (49.6%) and thiodiazole copper (42.2%). Curative activity of compound 4a-2 and 4a-3 against rice bacterial leaf blight was 62.3% and 56.0%, which were better than bismerthiazol (42.9%) and thiodiazole copper (36.1%). Through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis, it was observed that compound 4a-2 caused the cell membrane of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae ruptured or deformed. The present results indicated novel derivatives of 5-phenyl sulfonate methyl 1,3,4-oxadiazole might be potential antibacterial agents.

Zeae, respectively; the activities of compounds 7a, 7b, 8, 9a, 9b, and 9c against F. oxysporum were 55.2%, 51.1%, 58.9%, 63.2%, 53.3%, and 47.6%, respectively; whereas inhibitory rates of compounds 7a, 7b, 7c, 8, 9a, 9b, and 9c on C. mandshurica were 53.1%, 49.9%, 44.9%, 52.8%, 59.8%, 54.5%, and 49.3%, respectively.ConclusionA series of the novel nicotinamide derivatives containing 1,3,4-oxadiazole were synthesized and bio-assayed. The results of antifungal tests revealed that the synthesized nicotinamide derivatives possessed weakly to moderately antifungal activities against G. zeae, F. oxysporum, and C. mandshurica. Most of the synthesized compounds exhibited similar activities as (or higher than) these of hymexozol on their corresponding fungus, and compounds 7a, 8, 9a, and 9b showed considerable prospects for further optimization. Primary structure-activity relationships revealed that the introduction of the groups of 4-chloro-6-methyl on benzene, the hydrazone group containing N,N-dimethylamino, and acetyl at -NH2 could enhance the antifungal activity.

Novel 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives as selective butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors: Design, synthesis and biological evaluation.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive mental disorder that brings a huge economic burden to the healthcare systems. During this illness, acetylcholine levels in the cholinergic systems gradually diminish, which results in severe memory loss and cognitive impairments. Moreover, Butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) enzyme participates in cholinergic neurotransmission regulation by playing a prominent role in the latter phase of AD. In this study, based on donepezil, which is an effective acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, a series of 1,2,4-oxadiazole compounds were designed, synthesized and their inhibitory activities towards AChE and BuChE enzymes were evaluated. Some structures exhibited a higher selectivity rate towards BuChE in comparison to donepezil. Notably, compound 6n with an IC50 value of 5.07 µM and an SI ratio greater than 19.72 showed the highest potency and selectivity towards BuChE enzyme. The docking result revealed that compound 6n properly fitted the active site pocket of BuChE enzyme, and formed desirable lipophilic interactions and hydrogen bonds. Moreover, according to in silico ADME studies, these compounds have proper potential for being developed as new oral anti-Alzheimer's agents (Figure 1(Fig. 1)).

Synthesis and Antibacterial Evaluation of New Sulfone Derivatives Containing 2-Aroxymethyl-1,3,4-Oxadiazole/Thiadiazole Moiety.

Project description:Sulfones are one of the most important classes of agricultural fungicides. To discover new lead compounds with high antibacterial activity, a series of new sulfone derivatives were designed and synthesized by introducing the aroxymethyl moiety into the scaffold of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole sulfones. Antibacterial activities against three phytopathogens (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, Ralstonia solanacearum, Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri.) were assayed in vitro. As compared to the control of commercial fungicides and some reported sulfone fungicides, seven compounds 5I-1-5I-7 exerted remarkably higher activities with EC50 values ranging from 0.45-1.86 ?g/mL against X. oryzae and 1.97-20.15 ?g/mL against R. solanacearum. Exhilaratingly, 5I-1, 5I-2 and 5I-4 displayed significant in vivo activity against X. oryzae with protective effect of 90.4%, 77.7%, and 81.1% at 200 ?g/mL, respectively, much higher than that exhibited by Bismerthiazol (25.6%) and Thiadiazole-copper (32.0%). And the differential phytotoxicity of active derivatives was preliminarily checked. The results demonstrated that derivative of 2-aroxymethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole sulfone can serve as potential alternative bactericides for the management of plant bacterial diseases.
