Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 1,2,3-Triazole Tethered Thymol-1,3,4-Oxadiazole Derivatives as Anticancer and Antimicrobial Agents.

ABSTRACT: A library of 1,2,3-triazole-incorporated thymol-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives (6-18) hasbeen synthesized and tested for anticancer and antimicrobial activities. Compounds 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 exhibited significant antiproliferative activity. Among these active derivatives, compound 2-(4-((5-((2-isopropyl-5-methylphenoxy)methyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)phenol (9) was the best compound against all three tested cell lines, MCF-7 (IC₅₀ 1.1 μM), HCT-116 (IC₅₀ 2.6 μM), and HepG2 (IC₅₀ 1.4 μM). Compound 9 was found to be better than the standard drugs, doxorubicin and 5-fluorouracil. These compounds showed anticancer activity through thymidylate synthase inhibition as they displayed significant TS inhibitory activity with IC₅₀ in the range 1.95-4.24 μM, whereas the standard drug, Pemetrexed, showed IC₅₀ 7.26 μM. The antimicrobial results showed that some of the compounds (6, 7, 9, 16, and 17) exhibited good inhibition on Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The molecular docking and simulation studies supported the anticancer and antimicrobial data. It can be concluded that the synthesized 1,2,3-triazole tethered thymol-1,3,4-oxadiazole conjugates have both antiproliferative and antimicrobial potential.

Synthesis of 1,2,3-triazole-thymol derivatives as potential antimicrobial agents.

Project description:BackgroundThymol as a natural biological template can be modified chemically since the hydroxyl group makes it a candidate for structural modification. Thus, this study incorporated the triazole moiety on thymol and the chlorination of thymol moiety to help improve its biological potency.Materials and methodsA series of ten 1,2,3-triazole-thymol derivatives 1-10 were synthesized from thymol, by a click reaction between O-propargyl terminal alkyne of thymol and its chlorothymol with benzyl azide and substituted benzyl azides. Their structures were confirmed by spectroscopic methods (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR, GC-MS-EI/CI and LC-ESI-QTOF-MS). The Well diffusion method using Müeller-Hinton agar plates was used to demonstrate the antimicrobial activities of the synthesized triazole-thymol derivatives on selected bacterial strains; Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA), Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 29853, E. coli ESBL, K l ebsiella pneumoniae NCTC 13438 and Meropenem Resistant E. coli.ResultsAll the synthesized triazole-thymol derivatives showed significant but variable antibacterial activity against the seven medically important bacterial strains tested. The compound 4-((4-chloro-2-isopropyl-5-methylphenoxy)methyl)-1-(2-nitrobenzyl)-1H-1,2,3triazole (9) demonstrated a higher antibacterial activity with a mean zone of inhibition (38.7 mm) compared with ampicillin as the positive control which gave a zone size of 30.0 mm. In addition, the compound showed a three-fold potency than the parent compound, thymol (11.0 mm) against MRSA at a concentration of 100 μg/ml.ConclusionThese results provide additional evidence of the exploitation of natural products like thymol as leads for drug development against medically important bacterial pathogens.

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.

Trifluoromethylpyridine 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Derivatives: Emerging Scaffolds as Bacterial Agents.

Project description:A new class of trifluoromethylpyridine 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives (6a-6v) was obtained, and their antibacterial activities were evaluated. Some of them exhibited good activity, particularly 6a, which had the highest in vitro activity against Ralstonia solanacearum (R. solanacearum) and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac). The half-maximal effective concentrations (EC50) were 26.2 and 10.11 μg/mL, respectively, which were lower than those of commercial thiodiazole copper (97.2 and 35.3 μg/mL, respectively). Furthermore, 6q showed much higher activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) with an EC50 value of 7.2 μg/mL; this was superior to bismerthiazol (57.2 μg/mL). Collectively, our findings provide a foundation for the development of trifluoromethylpyridine 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives.

1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives: synthesis, characterization, antimicrobial potential, and computational studies.

Project description:We report the synthesis and biological assessment of 1,3,4-oxadiazole substituted 24 derivatives as novel, potential antibacterial agents. The structures of the newly synthesized derivatives were established by the combined practice of UV, IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, and mass spectrometry. Further these synthesized derivatives were subjected to antibacterial activity against all the selected microbial strains in comparison with amoxicillin and cefixime. The antibacterial activity of synthesized derivatives was correlated with their physicochemical and structural properties by QSAR analysis using computer assisted multiple regression analysis and four sound predictive models were generated with good R(2), R(adj)(2), and Fischer statistic. The derivatives with potent antibacterial activity were subjected to molecular docking studies to investigate the interactions between the active derivatives and amino acid residues existing in the active site of peptide deformylase to assess their antibacterial potential as peptide deformylase inhibitor.

Synthesis and Evaluation of New Oxadiazole, Thiadiazole, and Triazole Derivatives as Potential Anticancer Agents Targeting MMP-9.

Project description:Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are important proteases involved in tumor progression including angiogenesis, tissue invasion, and migration. Therefore, MMPs have been reported as potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in many types of cancer. New oxadiazole, thiadiazole, and triazole derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer effects on A549 human lung adenocarcinoma and C6 rat glioma cell lines. In order to examine the relationship between their anticancer activity and MMP-9, the compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory effects on MMPs. N-(1,3-Benzodioxol-5-ylmethyl)-2-{[5,[5-(((5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)oxy)methyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]thio}acetamide (8) and N-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethyl)-2-[(5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thio]acetamide (9) revealed promising cytotoxic effects on A549 and C6 cell lines similar to cisplatin without causing any toxicity towards NIH/3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line. Compounds 8 and 9 were also the most effective MMP-9 inhibitors in this series. Moreover, docking studies pointed out that compounds 8 and 9 had good affinity to the active site of the MMP-9 enzyme. The molecular docking and in vitro studies suggest that the MMP-9 inhibitory effects of compounds 8 and 9 may play an important role in lung adenocarcinoma and glioma treatment.

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

Project description:In this work, some new 2-[(5-((2-acetamidophenoxy)methyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thio]acetamide derivatives (4a-4l) were synthesized and studied for their anticancer activity. Twelve new compounds were tested on the A549 human lung cancer cell line, C6 rat glioma cell line, and L929 murine fibroblast cell line. Compounds 4f, 4i, 4k, and 4l (IC50: 1.59-7.48 μM), and especially 4h (IC50: <0.14 μM), exhibited excellent cytotoxic profile on A549 with selectivity. Compounds 4g and 4h showed remarkable antiproliferative activity on the C6 cell line with IC50 values of 8.16 and 13.04 μM, respectively. The compounds with the lowest IC50 value on the A549 cell line (4f, 4h, 4i, 4k, and 4l) were further studied to determine the mechanism of action. These compounds were found to induce apoptosis with a higher ratio (16.10-21.54%) than that of the standard drug cisplatin (10.07%). Compound 4f displayed mitochondrial membrane depolarization and caspase-3 activation at most, whereas compounds 4h (89.66%) and 4i (78.78%) had outstanding retention rates in the G0/G1phase of the cell cycle (cisplatin 74.75%). Compounds 4f, 4g, 4h, and 4l exhibited matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) inhibition higher than 75% at 100 μg/mL; even IC50 values were found to be 1.65 and 2.55 μM for 4h and 4l. In addition, in silico physicochemical properties of the compounds and molecular docking interaction of compound 4h on the MMP-9 enzyme were evaluated; the desired and expected results were obtained.

Design, synthesis and in silico molecular docking evaluation of novel 1,2,3-triazole derivatives as potent antimicrobial agents.

Project description:Chalcone and triazole scaffolds have demonstrated a crucial role in the advancement of science and technology. Due to their significance, research has proceeded on the design and development of novel benzooxepine connected to 1,2,3-triazolyl chalcone structures. The new chalcone derivatives produced by benzooxepine triazole methyl ketone 2 and different aromatic carbonyl compounds 3 are discussed in this paper. All prepared compounds have well-established structures to a variety of spectral approaches, including mass analysis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and IR. Among the tested compounds, hybrids 4c, 4d, 4i, and 4k exhibited exceptional antibacterial susceptibilities with MIC range of 3.59-10.30 μM against the tested S. aureus strain. Compounds 4c, 4d displayed superior antifungal activity against F. oxysporum with MIC 3.25, 4.89 μM, when compared to fluconazole (MIC = 3.83 μM) respectively. On the other hand, analogues 4d, 4f, and 4k demonstrated equivalent antitubercular action against H37Rv strain with MIC range of 2.16-4.90 μM. The capacity of ligand 4f to form a stable compound on the active site of CYP51 from M. tuberculosis (1EA1) was confirmed by docking studies using amino acids Leu321(A), Pro77(A), Phe83(A), Lys74(A), Tyr76(A), Ala73(A), Arg96(A), Thr80(A), Met79(A), His259(A), and Gln72(A). Additionally, the chalcone‒1,2,3‒triazole hybrids ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion), characteristics of molecules, estimations of toxicity, and bioactivity parameters were assessed.

1,2,3-Triazole Tethered Hybrid Capsaicinoids as Antiproliferative Agents Active against Lung Cancer Cells (A549).

Project description:A series of novel 1,2,3-triazole derivatives of capsaicin and its structural isomer (new natural product hybrid capsaicinoid) were synthesized by exploiting one-/two-point modification of capsaicin without altering the amide linkage (neck). The newly synthesized compounds were screened for their antiproliferative activity against an NCI panel of 60 cancer cell lines at a single dose of 10 μM. Most of the compounds have demonstrated reduced growth between 55 and 95%, whereas capsaicin (10) has shown reduced growth between 0 and 24%. Compounds showing more than 50% growth inhibition were further evaluated for the IC50 value. Among the cell lines tested, lung cancer cell lines (A549, NCI-H460) were found to be more susceptible toward most of the synthesized compounds. Compounds 14g and 14j demonstrated good antiproliferative activity in NCI-H460 with IC50 values of 6.65 and 5.55 μM, respectively, while compounds 18b, 18c, 18f, and 18m demonstrated potential antiproliferative activity in A549 cell lines with IC50 values ranging between 2.9 and 10.5 μM. Among the compounds, compound 18f was found to demonstrate the best activity with an IC50 value of 2.91 μM against A549. Furthermore, 18f induces cell cycle arrest at the S-phase and disrupts the mitochondrial membrane potential, reducing cell migration potential by inducing cellular apoptosis and higher ROS generation along with a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential in addition to surface and nuclear morphological alterations such as a reduction in the number and shrinkage of cells coupled with nuclear blabbing indicating the sign of apoptosis of A549 non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. Compound 18f has emerged as a lead molecule and may serve as a template for further discovery of capsaicinoid scaffolds.
