Hydrazones of 4-(Trifluoromethyl)benzohydrazide as New Inhibitors of Acetyl- and Butyrylcholinesterase.

ABSTRACT: Based on the broad spectrum of biological activity of hydrazide-hydrazones, trifluoromethyl compounds, and clinical usage of cholinesterase inhibitors, we investigated hydrazones obtained from 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzohydrazide and various benzaldehydes or aliphatic ketones as potential inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE). They were evaluated using Ellman's spectrophotometric method. The hydrazide-hydrazones produced a dual inhibition of both cholinesterase enzymes with IC₅₀ values of 46.8-137.7 µM and 19.1-881.1 µM for AChE and BuChE, respectively. The majority of the compounds were stronger inhibitors of AChE; four of them (2-bromobenzaldehyde, 3-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde, cyclohexanone, and camphor-based 2o, 2p, 3c, and 3d, respectively) produced a balanced inhibition of the enzymes and only 2-chloro/trifluoromethyl benzylidene derivatives 2d and 2q were found to be more potent inhibitors of BuChE. 4-(Trifluoromethyl)-N'-[4-(trifluoromethyl)benzylidene]benzohydrazide 2l produced the strongest inhibition of AChE via mixed-type inhibition determined experimentally. Structure-activity relationships were identified. The compounds fit physicochemical space for targeting central nervous systems with no apparent cytotoxicity for eukaryotic cell line together. The study provides new insights into this CF₃-hydrazide-hydrazone scaffold.

Project description:Antibacterial resistance (ABR) is a major life-threatening problem worldwide. Rampant dissemination of ABR always exemplified the need for the discovery of novel compounds. However, to circumvent the disease, a molecular target is required, which will lead to the death of the bacteria when acted upon by a compound. One group of enzymes that have proved to be an effective target for druggable candidates is bacterial DNA topoisomerases (DNA gyrase and ParE). In our present work, phenylacetamide and benzohydrazides derivatives were screened for their antibacterial activity against a selected panel of pathogens. The tested compounds displayed significant antibacterial activity with MIC values ranging from 0.64 to 5.65 μg/mL. Amongst 29 title compounds, compounds 5 and 21 exhibited more potent and selective inhibitory activity against Escherichia coli with MIC values at 0.64 and 0.67 μg/mL, respectively, and MBC at onefold MIC. Furthermore, compounds exhibited a post-antibiotic effect of 2 h at 1× MIC in comparison to ciprofloxacin and gentamicin. These compounds also demonstrated the concentration-dependent bactericidal activity against E. coli and synergized with FDA-approved drugs. The compounds are screened for their enzyme inhibitory activity against E. coli ParE, whose IC50 values range from 0.27 to 2.80 μg/mL. Gratifyingly, compounds, namely 8 and 25 belonging to the phenylacetamide series, were found to inhibit ParE enzyme with IC50 values of 0.27 and 0.28 μg/mL, respectively. In addition, compounds were benign to Vero cells and displayed a promising selectivity index (169.0629-951.7240). Moreover, compounds 1, 7, 8, 21, 24, and 25 (IC50: <1 and Selectivity index: >200) exhibited potent activity in reducing the E. coli biofilm in comparison with ciprofloxacin, erythromycin, and ampicillin. These astonishing results suggest the potential utilization of phenylacetamide and benzohydrazides derivatives as promising ParE inhibitors for treating bacterial infections.
