- Dibenzazepine-linked isoxazoles: New and potent class of α-glucosidase inhibitors
-
α-Glucosidase inhibition is a valid approach for controlling hyperglycemia in diabetes. In the current study, new molecules as a hybrid of isoxazole and dibenzazepine scaffolds were designed, based on their literature as antidiabetic agents. For this, a series of dibenzazepine-linked isoxazoles (33–54) was prepared using Nitrile oxide-Alkyne cycloaddition (NOAC) reaction, and evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activities to explore new hits for treatment of diabetes. Most of the compounds showed potent inhibitory potency against α-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.20) enzyme (IC50 = 35.62 ± 1.48 to 333.30 ± 1.67 μM) using acarbose as a reference drug (IC50 = 875.75 ± 2.08 μM). Structure-activity relationship, kinetics and molecular docking studies of active isoxazoles were also determined to study enzyme-inhibitor interactions. Compounds 33, 40, 41, 46, 48–50, and 54 showed binding interactions with critical amino acid residues of α-glucosidase enzyme, such as Lys156, Ser157, Asp242, and Gln353.

- Design, synthesis, and evaluation of hydroxamic acid derivatives as promising agents for the management of Chagas disease
-
Today, there are approximately 8 million cases of Chagas disease in the southern cone of South America alone, and about 100 million people are living with the risk of becoming infected. The present pharmacotherapy is sometimes ineffective and has serious side effects. Here, we report a series of 4,5-dihydroisoxazoles incorporating hydroxamate moieties, which act as effective inhibitors of the carbonic anhydrase (CA) from Trypanosoma cruzi (TcCA). One compound (5g) was evaluated in detail and shows promising features as an antitrypanosomal agent. Excellent values for the inhibition of growth for all three developmental forms of the parasite were observed at low concentrations of 5g (IC50 values from 7.0 to 1 μM). The compound has a selectivity index (SI) of 6.7 and no cytotoxicity to macrophage cells. Preliminary in vivo data showed that 5g reduces bloodstream parasites and that all treated mice survived; it was also more effective than the standard drug benznidazole.

- Synthesis, pharmacological characterization, and docking analysis of a novel family of diarylisoxazoles as highly selective cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) inhibitors
-
3-(5-Chlorofuran-2-yl)-5-methyl-4-phenylisoxazole (P6), a known selective cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) inhibitor, was used to design a new series of 3,4-diarylisoxazoles in order to improve its biochemical COX-1 selectivity and antiplatelet efficacy. Structure-activity relationships were studied using human whole blood assays for COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition in vitro, and results showed that the simultaneous presence of 5-methyl (or -CF3), 4-phenyl, and 5-chloro(-bromo or -methyl)furan-2-yl groups on the isoxazole core was essential for their selectivity toward COX-1. 3g, 3s, 3d were potent and selective COX-1 inhibitors that affected platelet aggregation in vitro through the inhibition of COX-1-dependent thromboxane (TX) A2. Moreover, we characterized their kinetics of COX-1 inhibition. 3g, 3s, and 3d were more potent inhibitors of platelet COX-1 and aggregation than P6 (named 6) for their tighter binding to the enzyme. The pharmacological results were supported by docking simulations. The oral administration of 3d to mice translated into preferential inhibition of platelet-derived TXA2 over protective vascular-derived prostacyclin (PGI2).

- SYNTHESIS OF 3-ARYL-4,5-DIHYDRO-5-HYDROXY-1,2-OXAZOLES BY REACTION OF SUBSTITUTED BENZONITRILE OXIDES WITH THE ENOLATE ION OF ACETALDEHYDE.
-
By reaction of substituted benzonitrile oxides with the enolate ion of acetaldehyde (quantitatively generated by the known cycloreversion of THF in the presence of n-butyllithium) a number of 3-aryl-4,5-dihydro-5-hydroxy-1,2-oxazoles (previously unknown or, in two cases, only synthesized by different procedures) have been isolated in high yields.Treatment of such hydroxy-isoxalines with some common bases allows their conversion in high yields into the corresponding isoxazoles.
