Project description:Since benzo [ b ] thiophene scaffold is one of the privileged structures in drug discovery as this core exhibitsactivities for different biological problems, in this study bis (benzo[ b ]thiophene-2-yl) alkyl methanimine derivatives (1-9) were synthesized by reacting benzo[ b ]thiophene-2-carbaldehyde with diamines. All newly compounds were characterized by IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopic methods. Synthesized compounds were investigated using binary QSARbased models on therapeutic activity prediction of synthesized compounds and they showed high predicted activities in following diseases: bacterial, angina, allergy, depression and obesity. Thus, they were then tested for their antimicrobial and antileishmanial activities as a result of this theoretical study. Compound 1(N, N'- (propane-1,3-diyl) bis (1-(benzo [ b ] thiophene-2-yl)) methanimine) was found the most active compound in both diseases. Thus, its molecular docking studies were also carried out.

Project description:Six new organotin(IV) compounds of Schiff bases derived from S-R-dithiocarbazate [R = benzyl (B), 2- or 4-methylbenzyl (2M and 4M, respectively)] condensed with 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (oVa) were synthesised and characterised by elemental analysis, various spectroscopic techniques including infrared, UV-vis, multinuclear (¹H, 13C, 119Sn) NMR and mass spectrometry, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The organotin(IV) compounds were synthesised from the reaction of Ph₂SnCl₂ or Me₂SnCl₂ with the Schiff bases (S2MoVaH/S4MoVaH/SBoVaH) to form a total of six new organotin(IV) compounds that had a general formula of [R₂Sn(L)] (where L = Schiff base; R = Ph or Me). The molecular geometries of Me₂Sn(S2MoVa), Me₂Sn(S4MoVa) and Me₂Sn(SBoVa) were established by X-ray crystallography and verified using density functional theory calculations. Interestingly, each experimental structure contained two independent but chemically similar molecules in the crystallographic asymmetric unit. The coordination geometry for each molecule was defined by thiolate-sulphur, phenoxide-oxygen and imine-nitrogen atoms derived from a dinegative, tridentate dithiocarbazate ligand with the remaining positions occupied by the methyl-carbon atoms of the organo groups. In each case, the resulting five-coordinate C₂NOS geometry was almost exactly intermediate between ideal trigonal-bipyramidal and square-pyramidal geometries. The cytotoxic activities of the Schiff bases and organotin(IV) compounds were investigated against EJ-28 and RT-112 (bladder), HT29 (colon), U87 and SJ-G2 (glioblastoma), MCF-7 (breast) A2780 (ovarian), H460 (lung), A431 (skin), DU145 (prostate), BE2-C (neuroblastoma) and MIA (pancreatic) cancer cell lines and one normal breast cell line (MCF-10A). Diphenyltin(IV) compounds exhibited greater potency than either the Schiff bases or the respective dimethyltin(IV) compounds. Mechanistic studies on the action of these compounds against bladder cancer cells revealed that they induced the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The bladder cancer cells were apoptotic after 24 h post-treatment with the diphenyltin(IV) compounds. The interactions of the organotin(IV) compounds with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) were experimentally explored using UV-vis absorption spectroscopy. This study revealed that the organotin(IV) compounds have strong DNA binding affinity, verified via molecular docking simulations, which suggests that these organotin(IV) compounds interact with DNA via groove-binding interactions.

Project description:We synthesised a new series of sulphonamide-bearing quinazolinone derivatives 5-18 and evaluated their in vitro cytotoxicity in various cancer cell lines (A549, HepG-2, LoVo and MCF-7) and in normal human cells (HUVEC). Compounds 6 and 10 exhibited the higher activity against all the cancer cell lines compared with 5-flourourcil as positive control. The ability of the most promising compounds 6 and 10 to induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in breast cancer (MCF-7) cells was evaluated by flow cytometry. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and western blotting were used to evaluate the expression of apoptosis-related markers. We found that the 2-tolylthioacetamide derivative 6 and the 3-ethyl phenyl thioacetamide derivative 10 exhibited cytotoxic activity comparable to that of 5-fluorouracil as reference drug in MCF-7 and LoVo colon cancer cells. Cell cycle analysis showed a concentration-dependent accumulation of cells in the sub-G1 phase upon treatment with both compounds. The Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide assay showed that the compounds 6 and 10 increased the early and late apoptosis cell death modes in a dose-dependent manner. These compounds downregulated the expression of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), while increasing that of p53, Bcl-2-like protein 4, and caspase-7, at the mRNA and protein levels. Molecular docking of compounds 6 and 10 with Bcl-2 predicted them to show moderate - high binding affinity (6: -7.5 kcal/mol, 10: -7.9 kcal/mol) and interactions with key central substrate cavity residues. Overall, compounds 6 and 10 were found to be promising anticancer and apoptosis-inducing agents.

Project description:Recently, 5-[(4-ethoxyphenyl)imino]methyl-N-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-methyl-2-phenylpyrimidin-4-amine has been synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for its antibacterial activity against Enterococcus faecalis in combination with antineoplastic activity against gastric adenocarcinoma. In this study, new 5-iminomethylpyrimidine compounds were synthesized which differ in the substituent(s) of the aromatic ring attached to the imine group. The structures of newly obtained pyrimidine Schiff bases were established by spectroscopy techniques (ESI-MS, FTIR and 1H NMR). To extend the current knowledge about the features responsible for the biological activity of the new 5-iminomethylpyrimidine derivatives, low-temperature single-crystal X-ray analyses were carried out. For all studied crystals, intramolecular N-H∙∙∙N hydrogen bonds and intermolecular C-H∙∙∙F interactions were observed and seemed to play an essential role in the formation of the structures. Simultaneously, their biological properties based on their cytotoxic features were compared with the activities of the Schiff base (III) published previously. Moreover, computational investigations, such as ADME prediction analysis and molecular docking, were also performed on the most active new Schiff base (compound 4b). These results were compared with the highest active compound III.

Project description:Twenty-six novel thiosemicarbazone derivative B1-B26 were synthesized via condensation reactions between the corresponding thiosemicarbazides and aldehydes. The chemical characterization of the compounds was carried out by infrared (IR), mass (MS), proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H- and 13C-NMR) spectroscopic analyses. The compounds were investigated for their monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitory activity and most of them were more potent against MAO-A enzyme when compared with MAO-B enzyme. N-Cyclohexyl-2-[4-[(4-chlorophenyl)thio]benzylidene]hydrazine-1-carbothioamide (B24) was the most active compound against MAO-A. The enzyme kinetics study revealed that compound B24 has a reversible and competitive mode of binding. Interaction modes between compound B24 and MAO-A were clarified by docking studies. In addition, the favourable absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties and non-toxic nature of compound B24 make this compound a promising MAO-A inhibitor.

Project description:Herein, we report the synthesis, characterization, and biological properties of eleven (3a-3k) novel Schiff bases. The spectral data of FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and LC-MS are associated with these synthesized compounds. From the FT-IR analysis, we confirmed the azomethine (-C=N-) group and from 1H NMR data, the phenolic -OH proton is appeared at range δ 13.92-14.09ppm due to hydrogen bonding. The LC-MS analysis agreed with molecular ion peaks of synthesized Schiff bases. To evaluate the antibacterial activity of newly synthesized compounds were screened against b. licheniformis, b. species, e. coli, and s. aureus. Furthermore, the antioxidant activity was investigated by two methods 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) and hydroxyl radical scavenging methods. The (-NO2,-Cl,-Br,-I) substituted compounds have shown good antibacterial activity against tested organisms. Also, these compounds were exhibited higher antioxidant activity by given methods.

Project description:This report presents a comprehensive investigation into the synthesis and characterization of Schiff base compounds derived from benzenesulfonamide. The synthesis process, involved the reaction between N-cycloamino-2-sulfanilamide and various substituted o-salicylaldehydes, resulted in a set of compounds that were subjected to rigorous characterization using advanced spectral techniques, including 1H NMR, 13C NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Furthermore, an in-depth assessment of the synthesized compounds was conducted through Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion and Toxicity (ADMET) analysis, in conjunction with docking studies, to elucidate their pharmacokinetic profiles and potential. Impressively, the ADMET analysis showcased encouraging drug-likeness properties of the newly synthesized Schiff bases. These computational findings were substantiated by molecular properties derived from density functional theory (DFT) calculations using the B3LYP/6-31G* method within the Jaguar Module of Schrödinger 2023-2 from Maestro (Schrodinger LLC, New York, USA). The exploration of frontier molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) enabled the computation of global reactivity descriptors (GRDs), encompassing charge separation (Egap) and global softness (S). Notably, within this analysis, one Schiff base, namely, 4-bromo-2-{N-[2-(pyrrolidine-1-sulfonyl)phenyl]carboximidoyl}phenol, 20, emerged with the smallest charge separation (ΔEgap = 3.5780 eV), signifying heightened potential for biological properties. Conversely, 4-bromo-2-{N-[2-(piperidine-1-sulfonyl)phenyl]carboximidoyl}phenol, 17, exhibited the largest charge separation (ΔEgap = 4.9242 eV), implying a relatively lower propensity for biological activity. Moreover, the synthesized Schiff bases displayed remarkeable inhibition of tankyrase poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase enzymes, integral in colon cancer, surpassing the efficacy of a standard drug used for the same purpose. Additionally, their bioavailability scores aligned closely with established medications such as trifluridine and 5-fluorouracil. The exploration of molecular electrostatic potential through colour mapping delved into the electronic behaviour and reactivity tendencies intrinsic to this diverse range of molecules.

Project description:A series of 20 histamine Schiff base was synthesised by reaction of histamine, a well known carbonic anhydrase (CA, E.C 4.2.2.1.) activator pharmacophore, with substituted aldehydes. The obtained histamine Schiff bases were assayed as activators of five selected human (h) CA isozymes, the cytosolic hCA I, hCA II, and hCA VII, the membrane-anchored hCA IV and transmembrane hCA IX. Some of these compounds showed efficient activity (in the nanomolar range) against the cytosolic isoform hCA VII, which is a key CA enzyme involved in brain metabolism. Moderate activity was observed against hCA I and hCA IV (in the nanomolar to low micromolar range). The structure-activity relationship for activation of these isoforms with the new histamine Schiff bases is discussed in detail based on the nature of the aliphatic, aromatic, or heterocyclic moiety present in the aldehyde fragment of the molecule, which may participate in diverse interactions with amino acid residues at the entrance of the active site, where activators bind, and which is the most variable part among the different CA isoforms.

Project description:Metal complexes play a crucial role in pharmaceutical sciences owing to their wide and significant activities. Schiff bases (SBs) are multifaceted pharmacophores capable of forming chelating complexes with various metals in different oxidation states. Complexes with SBs are extensively studied for their numerous advantages, including low cost and simple synthetic strategies. They have been reported to possess a variety of biological activities, including antimicrobial, anticancer, antioxidant, antimalarial, analgesic, antiviral, antipyretic, and antidiabetic ones. This review summarizes the most recent studies on the antimicrobial and antiproliferative activities of SBs-metal complexes. Moreover, recent studies regarding mononuclear and binuclear complexes with SBs are described, including antioxidant, antidiabetic, antimalarial, antileishmanial, anti-Alzheimer, and catecholase activities.

Project description:Theoretically, the two aldehydes of terephthalaldehyde (TPA) are equivalent, so the single or double Schiff base from TPA and d-glucosamine (Glc) may be formed at the same time. However, it is preferred to produce separately a single Schiff base (L1 ) or double Schiff base (L2 ) for different synthesis systems of anhydrous methanol or water-methanol. We calculated the Δr G of the formation of compounds L1 and L2 by density functional theory (DFT). In an anhydrous methanol system, the Δr G values of L1 and L2 are both below zero and L2 is lower, suggesting the spontaneous formation of the two Schiff bases. Though adjusting the molar ratio of Glc to TPA, L1 and L 2 both were separately formed in anhydrous methanol. However, in the water-methanol system, L2 was absent, which is most likely due to higher Δr G (4.95 eV) and better water solubility. The results also exhibits that the positive charge of C in -CHO for TPA is smaller in a mixed solvent than that in methanol, which confirms that the nucleophilic reaction of the Schiff base is more difficult in a mixed solvent. Therefore, we could realize to control the synthesis of a pure single or double Schiff base from Glc and TPA by adjusting the molar ratio and solvent. The as-prepared two kinds of Schiff bases have strong optical properties, high bacteriostatic activity, and can be used as fluorescent probes for tumor cell imaging.
