Larvicidal activities of 2-Aryl-2,3-Dihydroquinazolin -4-ones against malaria vector Anopheles arabiensis, In Silico ADMET prediction and molecular target investigation
Malaria, affecting all continents, remains one of the life-threatening diseases introduced by parasites that are transmitted to humans through the bites of infected Anopheles mosquitoes. Although insecticides are currently used to reduce malaria transmission, their safety concern for living systems, as well as the environment, is a growing problem. Therefore, the discovery of novel, less toxic, and environmentally safe molecules to effectively combat the control of these vectors is in high demand. In order to identify new potential larvicidal agents, a series of 2-aryl-1,2-dihydroquinazolin-4-one derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their larvicidal activity against Anopheles arabiensis. The in silico absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) properties of the compounds were also investigated and most of the derivatives possessed a favorable ADMET profile. Computational modeling studies of the title compounds demonstrated a favorable binding interaction against the acetylcholinesterase enzyme molecular target. Thus, 2-aryl-1,2-dihydroquinazolin-4-ones were identified as a novel class of Anopheles arabiensis insecticides which can be used as lead molecules for the further development of more potent and safer larvicidal agents for treating malaria.Fil: Venugopala, K.

Greener synthesis of indolizine analogues using water as a base and solvent: Study for larvicidal activity against Anopheles arabiensis
Greener synthesis of a series of novel indolizine analogues have been achieved by the cyclization of aromatic cycloimmonium ylides with electron-deficient alkynes in the presence of water as the base and solvent at 80 °C. Yield of the title compounds was good and reactions performed were eco-friendly. The structures of these newly synthesized compounds have been confirmed by spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR, NMR, LC-MS, and elemental analysis. Characterized title compounds were evaluated for larvicidal activity against Anopheles arabiensis by standard WHO larvicidal assay using Temefos as standard at 4 μg/mL. Title compounds 2e, 2f, and 2g emerged as promising larvicidal agents.Fil: Sandeep, Chandrashekharappa. Institute For Stem Cell Biology And Regenerative Medic; IndiaFil: Venugopala, Katharigatta N..

Crystal structure, mosquito larvicidal & antifungal activity of 3‑tert‑butyl‑7-(2,3,4-trimethoxyphenyl)-4H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-c][1,2,4]triazin-4-one
One-pot microwave assisted synthesis and structural elucidation of novel ethyl 3-substituted-7-methylindolizine-1-carboxylates with larvicidal activity against Anopheles arabiensis
In the present investigation a series of novel ethyl 3-substituted-7-methylindolizine-1-carboxylates was achieved by microwave assisted one-pot method. The purity of the compounds was ascertained by HPLC and structural elucidation of the title compounds was achieved by FT-IR, NMR (1H and 13C), LC-MS and elemental analysis. One randomly selected compound from the series was further studied by single crystal X-ray method for intra and intermolecular interactions. Larvicidal properties of the characterized compounds were evaluated against Anopheles arabiensis and it was found that indolizine pharmacophore influences larvicidal activity as we can see larvicidal activity for all the analogues. The synthesized analogues (2j, 2m and 2f) were the most potent compounds based on the functional groups on the indolizine pharmacophore for larvicidal assay.Fil: Chandrashekharappa, Sandeep.
