Synthesis, antioxidant, and cytotoxic activities of bis(oxazolyl/thiazolyl/imidazolyl)amidomethanesulfonyl Acetamides

A new class of bis(oxazolyl/thiazolyl/imidazolyl)amidomethanesulfonyl acetamides was prepared from the respective (oxazolyl/thiazolyl/imidazolyl)carbamoyl-methylthio acetic acid and studied their antioxidant activity and cytotoxic activitity against A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells. The methyl-substituted sulfonyl bisoxazoles exhibited excellent radical scavenging activity. On the other hand, the chloro-substituted sulfonyl bisthiazoles (IC50 = 49 A mu M) and sulfonyl bisimidazoles (IC50 = 24 A mu M) showed noticeable cytotoxic activity on A549 cells

Aggregation-Induced and Polymorphism-Dependent Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence (TADF) Characteristics of an Oligothiophene: Applications in Time-Dependent Live Cell Multicolour Imaging

Typically, molecules with a twisted donor-acceptor (D-A) architecture have been exploited for constructing thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials. Herein, we report the first example of a thiophene-based thermally activated delayed fluorescent molecule without a D-A architecture. Compound 1 (2,5-bis(2,2-di(thiophen-2-yl)vinyl)thiophene) is conformationally flexible and shows weak fluorescence in the solution state but displays bright TADFin both condensed and solid states. Compound 1 crystallized in two different polymorphs (1 a and 1 b). Interestingly, both polymorphs show distinctly different TADF features. The broad spectral features and the TADF characteristics of 1 have been explored for the time-dependent multicolor (green, yellow and red) imaging of living cells

Synthesis, Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Activities of Sulfonamidomethane Linked Heterocycles

A new class of sulfonamidomethane pyrrolyl-oxadiazoles/thiadiazoles and pyrazolyl-oxadiazoles/thiadiazoles was prepared from arylsulfonylaminoacetic acid hydrazides and E-cinnamic acid. The lead compounds were tested for antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities. The thiadiazole compounds having chloro substituent on the aromatic ring 4c, 8c and 10c exhibited comparable antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and also antifungal activity against Penieillium ehrysogenunz. The styryl oxadiazole compound 3c showed appreciable cytotoxic activity on A549 lung carcinoma cells which can be used as a lead compound in the future studies

Synthesis, Antioxidant, and Cytotoxic Activities of N-Azole Substituted Thiomorpholine Derivatives

A new class of N-azole substituted thiomorpholine derivatives were prepared and their antioxidant and cytotoxic activities were studied. The methyl substituted oxazolyl thiomorpholine dioxide 9b exhibited radical scavenging activity greater than the standard ascorbic acid. On the other hand, the thiazolyl thiomorpholine 10c having a chloro substituent on the aromatic ring was identified as a remarkable lead molecule for cytotoxic activity against A549 and HeLa cells, with IC50 values of 10.1 and 30.0 mu M, respectively
