Phenacylation of 5-aryl-3-mercapto-l,2,4-triazoles (I) furnished 5-aryl-3-phenacylthio-1,2,4-triazoles (II) which reacted with CS₂ and aryl isothiocyanates to give 5-aryl-l,2,4-triazolo[3,4-c]-1,2,4-dithiazole-3-thiones (III) and 5-aryl-3-arylimino-l,2,4-triazolo[3,4-c]-l,2,4-dithiazoles (IV), respectively. (IV) on refluxing with CS₂ yielded (III) which, when heated with aryl isothiocyanates, regenerated (IV).

2-Alkyl(aryl)-quinazolin-4(3H)-thiones, 2-R-(quinazolin-4(3H)-ylthio)carboxylic acids and amides: synthesis,molecular docking,antimicrobial and anticancer properties

In this study, a series of novel 2-alkyl(aryl)-quinazolin-4(3H)-thiones, 2-R-(quinazolin-4(3H)-ylthio)carboxylic acids and amides were synthesized and evaluated for antimicrobial and anticancer activities. Their structure was confirmed by elemental analysis and spectral data (FT-IR, LC-MS, ¹H-NMR). Antimicrobial activity was tested in vitro against Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Enterobacter aerogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Candida albicans and NCI in vitro preliminary anticancer activity against nine different cancer types. The most active antibacterial and antifungal compounds were: 2.1, 2.2 and 2.4. The introduction of the carboxylic acid or amide residue into the fourth position of quinazolin-4(3H)-thione resulted in the absence of antimicrobial activity. Substance 3.8 inhibited renal cancer UO-31 line and 2.18 – leukemia CCRF-CEM. The results of in silico molecular docking for DHFR and CK2 kinase had no correlation with in vitro properties, proposing the presence of other biological activity pathways.

A number of new 8-substituted-4-(2/4-substituted phenyl)-2H-[1,3,5]triazino[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazole-2-thiones (4a–t) were synthesized and evaluated for their anticonvulsant, anti-nociceptive, hepatotoxic, and neurotoxic properties. The titled compounds (4a–t) were obtained by cyclization of N-{[6-substituted-1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)amino]carbonothioyl}-2/4-substituted benzamides (3a–t) by refluxing in n-butanol. All the newly synthesized compounds were screened for their anticonvulsant activity in a mouse seizure model and were compared with the standard drug phenytoin. Compounds 4a, 4c, 4f, and 4l showed complete protection after time periods of 0.5?h and 4?h. Some of the selected compounds were evaluated for their neurotoxic and hepatotoxic effects, and none of these showed any sign of neurotoxicity or hepatotoxicity. Compounds 4a–t were also evaluated for their anti-nociceptive activity by a thermal stimulus technique using diclofenac as standard. Compounds 4o, 4q, and 4t displayed highly potent analgesic activity with p?<?0.01.     

Design,synthesis and anti-Parkinsonian evaluation of 3-alkyl/aryl-8-(furan-2-yl)thiazolo[5,4-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidine-2(3H)-thiones against neuroleptic-induced catalepsy and oxidative stress in mice

A series of 3-alkyl/aryl-8-(furan-2-yl)thiazolo[5,4-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidine-2(3H)-thiones (3a–3f) were synthesised in good yield and evaluated for their anti-Parkinsonian and neuroprotective potential. The structures of the synthesised compounds were confirmed on the basis of their spectral data and elemental analysis. All of the compounds were found to be active in haloperidol-induced catalepsy and oxidative stress in mice. The most active compound carried a propyl group at the 3-position of the thiazolotriazolopyrimidine nucleus while substitution with a phenyl ring produced the least active compound among the series. A computational study was carried out for the prediction of pharmacokinetic properties and none of the compounds violated Lipinski’s rule of five, making them potentially promising agents for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

Abstract

This study presents the synthesis, antiproliferative and antimicrobial evaluation of a new series of Mannich base derivatives containing 1,2,4-triazole system. New compounds were prepared by the reaction of 4,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones with formaldehyde and various amines. The structures of the prepared compounds were confirmed by means of ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and elemental analyses. Twelve compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative activities against six chosen cancer cell lines. All synthesized compounds were screened for their in vitro antimicrobial activity by using the agar dilution technique. For 17 potentially active compounds, their antibacterial activity was confirmed on the basis of MIC (minimal inhibitory concentration) by broth microdilution method using the reference Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains.     

Nucleosides. II. Synthesis and Properties of 3,4-Diaryl-4,5-dihydro-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones

Abstract

3,4-Diaryl-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones (1a-c) were silylated to give compounds (2a-c) which were condensed with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranose (3) in the presence of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethane sulfonate to afford the corresponding nucleosides 4a-c. Treatment of 4a-c with sodium methoxide in methanol at room temperature afforded the debenzoylated nucleosides 5a-c. The reaction of 5a with acetone in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid gave the 2′, 3′-isopropylidene derivative (6a). Phosphorylation of 6a with phosphoryl chloride and triethylphosphate followed by treatment with barium hydroxide afforded barium 3,4-diphenyl-4,5-dihydro(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione-5′- monophosphate, which gave after lyophilization the free acid (7a)     

Design,synthesis, and urease inhibition studies of some 1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,2,4-triazoles derived from mandelic acid

Some new structural type inhibitors of urease, i.e. 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (4a–e) and 4,5-disubstituted-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones (5a–e) were synthesized in two steps from mandelic acid hydrazides (2a–e) and aryl isothiocyantes. The hydrazides in turn were synthesized from mandelic acid via esterification. Compounds 4a–e and 5a–e were evaluated against jack bean urease. Compounds 4d, 5b, and 5d were found to be more potent, with IC₅₀ values of 16.1?±?0.12?µM, 18.9?±?0.188?µM, and 16.7?±?0.178?µM, respectively, when compared to the standard (thiourea; IC₅₀?=?21.0?±?0.011?µM). These compounds may be subjected to further investigations for the development of antiulcer drugs.     

Refinement of the pharmacophore of 3,4-dihydroquinazoline-2(1H)-thiones for their anti-melanogenesis activity

In order to define the structural requirements of quinazoline-2(1H)-thiones 1 for their inhibitory activity on melanogenesis, a novel series of 3,4-dihydroquinazoline-2(1H)-thiones (3a–h) were prepared and screened for their melanogenesis inhibition on melanoma B16 cell line under the stimulant of α-MSH. The anti-melanogenesis activity of 3 is mainly mediated by the hydrogen bonding ability of thioamide unit in addition to complexation ability of thione and the hydrophobic binding power of side chain substitutions at 3-position. Thus, the pharmacophore of 3,4-dihydroquinazoline-2(1H)-thiones for their anti-melanogenesis activity could be refined as 3-hydrophobic substituted quinazolinethione.
