    Synthesis of 1,5-disubstituted tetrazoles by the cyclization of sodium azide with N(N),N'-di(tri)substituted carbamimidothioate is reported. Tetrazoles are obtained in good to excellent yield in the absence of a catalyst. All the compounds were characterized by NMR and HRMS analysis. Single crystal X-ray diffraction data of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-(5-phenylIH-tetrazol-1-yl)piperazine 5g is also provided. Further, these disubstituted tetrazoles were tested against the proliferation of human breast cancer cells (MCF-7), which identified 5e as a lead compound. Finally, we have shown in silico that these compounds may interact with the ligand binding domain of estrogen receptor alpha (ER alpha), that expresses at high amount in MCF-7 cells

    A series of small molecules, theophylline acetohydrazide hydrazone derivatives were obtained via condensation of theophylline-7-acetohydrazide with different aromatic/heterocyclic aldehydes. The compounds were synthesized and characterized by using conventional methods. Further, the compounds and standard drugs were evaluated against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain, the activity obtained was varying depending on the functional group attached to theophylline acetohydrazide hydrazone compounds. Among these, Br-substituted compounds showed more potent against M. tuberculosis with MIC 3.6-4 mu M and better than the reference drugs used. The molecular docking studies have shown the possible binding modes of the compounds with protein (PDB ID: 4RHX); the compound 4h has shown highest glide score and binding energy. For all compounds, ADME properties were predicted

    Novel PARP inhibitors with selective mode-of-action have been approved for clinical use. Herein, oxadiazole based ligands that are predicted to target PARP-1 have been synthesized and screened for the loss of cell viability in mammary carcinoma cells, wherein seven compounds were observed to possess significant IC50 values in the range of 1.4 to 25 µM. Furthermore, compound 5u, inhibited the viability of MCF-7 cells with an IC50 value of 1.4µM, when compared to Olaparib (IC50 = 3.2 µM). Compound 5s also decreased cell viability in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells with IC50 values of 15.3 and 19.2 µM, respectively. Treatment of MCF-7 cells with compounds 5u and 5s produced PARP cleavage, H2AX phosphorylation and CASPASE-3 activation comparable to that observed with Olaparib. Compounds 5u and 5s also decreased foci-formation and 3D Matrigel growth of MCF-7 cells equivalent to or greater than that observed with Olaparib. Finally, in silico analysis demonstrated binding of compound 5s towardsthe catalytic site of PARP-1, indicating that these novel oxadiazoles synthesized herein may serve as exemplars for the development of new therapeutics in cancer

    A novel series of indazole tethered oxadiazoles (OTDs) derivatives were synthesized, characterized and screened for their anti-proliferative activity against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. OTDs structure was further confirmed by Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Among the tested OTDs, compound 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-(1-methyl-1H-indazol-3-yl)-1,3,4 oxadiazole was found to inhibit the catalytical activity of SIRT2 and brings about apoptosis as shown by western blot analysis and flow cytometry data. Also, the tested OTDs were found to interact with the active site of human SIRT2 in silico but not with the cavity of co-crystal ligand 5-(3- hydroxypropyl)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole, which indicate that these OTDs has potential in the development of SIRT2 inhibitors in liver cancer models

    The design and development of a small molecule named NPB [3-{(4(2,3-dichlorophenyl)piperazin-1-yl}{2-hydroxyphenyl)methyl}-N-cyclopentylbenzamide], which specifically inhibited the phosphorylation of BAD at Ser99 in human carcinoma cells has been previously reported. Herein, the synthesis, characterization, and effect on cancer cell viability of NPB analogs, and the single-crystal X-ray crystallographic studies of an example compound (4r), which was grown via slow-solvent evaporation technique is reported. Screening for loss of viability in mammary carcinoma cells revealed that compounds such as 2[(4(2,3-dichlorophenyl)piperazin-1-yl][naphthalen-1-yl]methyl)phenol (4e), 5[(4(2,3-dichlorophenyl)piperazin-1-yl][2-hydroxyphenyl)methyl)uran-2-carbaldehyde (4f), 3[(2-hydroxyphenyl][4(p-tolyl)piperazin-1-yl)methyl)benzaldehyde (4i), and NPB inhibited the viability of MCF-7 cells with IC50 values of 5.90, 3.11, 7.68, and 6.5 µM, respectively. The loss of cell viability was enhanced by the NPB analogs synthesized by adding newer rings such as naphthalene and furan-2-carbaldehyde in place of N-cyclopentyl-benzamide of NPB. Furthermore, these compounds decreased Ser99 phosphorylation of hBAD. Additional in silico density functional theory calculations suggested possibilities for other analogs of NPB that may be more suitable for further development
