- Synthesis, crystal structure, anti-HIV, and antiproliferative activity of new oxadiazole and thiazole analogs
-
A series of 2-adamantyl-5-arylthiazolyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles 7a–x together with thiazoles 13 and 14 were synthesized. Compounds 7a–l, 13, and 14 were tested in vitro with the aim of identifying novel lead compounds active against human immunodeficiency virus type-1 and human immunodeficiency virus type-2 activity in MT-4 cells. Title compounds were also tested against representatives of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella spp.), various mycobacterial strains (Mycobacterium fortuitum and Mycobacterium smegmatis), yeast (Candida albicans), and mold (Aspergillus fumigatus). None of the compounds showed antiviral or antimicrobial activity, except compounds 13 and 14 exhibited anti-human immunodeficiency virus-1 activity with EC50 values of 1.79 and 2.39 μM with Selectivity index = 18 and 4, respectively. On the other hand, compounds 7a and 7j showed a marked cytotoxicity against the human CD4+ lymphocytes (MT-4). Therefore, 7a and 7j were evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against two solid tumor-derived cell lines, which exhibited IC50 values of 8.1 ± 0.10 μM and 4.8 ± 0.08 μM against Hep-G2 cell lines, respectively.

- Powerful Antibacterial Activity of Phenyl-Thiolatobismuth(III) Complexes Derived from Oxadiazolethiones
-
Seven novel 5-substituted phenylthiazole oxadiazolethiones: [Me-PTOT(H)], [MeO-PTOT(H)], [MeS-PTOT(H)], [F-PTOT(H)], [Cl-PTOT(H)], [Br-PTOT(H)], and [CF3-PTOT(H)], {where X-PTOT(H) = 5-[2-(4-X)thiazol-4-yl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2(3H)-thione, 4-X = C6H4}, were synthesised from their corresponding thioamides. From these seven heteroleptic thiolatobismuth complexes: BiPh(Me-PTOT)2 6, BiPh(MeO-PTOT)2 7, BiPh(MeS-PTOT)2 8, BiPh(F-PTOT)2 9, BiPh(Cl-PTOT)2 10, BiPh(Br-PTOT)2 11 and BiPh(CF3-PTOT)2 12 were synthesised and characterised. Complexes [10(DMSO)2] and [11(DMSO)2] were structurally characterised using X-ray diffraction. Evaluation of the antibacterial properties of the thiones and their BiIII complexes against Mycobacterium smegmatis, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE), Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) showed that all bismuth(III) complexes were highly effective against all the bacteria, as demonstrated by very low MIC values (1.1-2.1 μM). Complexes BiPh(Me-PTOT)2 6, BiPh(Cl-PTOT)2 10 and BiPh(Br-PTOT)2 11, showed best activity against the multi-drug resistant bacteria VRE and MRSA with an MIC value of 1.0 μM. All these complexes and their corresponding thiones failed to show any prominent activity against M. smegmatis and E. coli, even at high concentrations. These complexes showed little or no toxicity towards mammalian COS-7 cells at 20 μg/mL. Seven heteroleptic thiolatobismuth(III) complexes [BiPh(X-PTOT)2] derived from a series of 5-substituted phenylthiazole oxadiazolethiones [X-PTOT(H)] provide powerful antibacterial action against the multi-resistant bacteria MRSA and VRE.
