- Identification of some novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives as InhA inhibitors through pharmacophore-based virtual screening and molecular docking
-
The InhA inhibitors play key role in mycolic acid synthesis by preventing the fatty acid biosynthesis pathway. In this present article, Pharmacophore modelling and molecular docking study followed by in silico virtual screening could be considered as effective strategy to identify newer enoyl-ACP reductase inhibitors. Pyrrolidine carboxamide derivatives were opted to generate pharmacophore models using HypoGen algorithm in Discovery studio 2.1. Further it was employed to screen Zinc and Minimaybridge databases to identify and design newer potent hit molecules. The retrieved newer hits were further evaluated for their drug likeliness and docked against enoyl acyl carrier protein reductase. Here, novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine analogues were designed and synthesized with good yields. Structural elucidation of synthesized final molecules was perform through IR, MASS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR spectroscopy and further tested for its in vitro anti-tubercular activity against H37Rv strain using Microplate Alamar blue assay (MABA) method. Most of the synthesized compounds displayed strong anti-tubercular activities. Further, these potent compounds were gauged for MDR-TB, XDR-TB and cytotoxic study.

- Process for preparation of 4-amino-3-quinolinecarbonitriles
-
This invention discloses a process for the preparation of a 4-amino-3-quinolinecarbonitrile comprising combining an amine compound with a cyanoacetic acid and an acid catalyst to yield a cyanoacetamide; condensing the cyanoacetamide with an optionally up to tetra-substituted aniline in an alcoholic solvent and a trialkylorthoformate to yield a 3-amino-2-cyanoacrylamide; combining the 3-amino-2-cyanoacrylamide with phosphorus oxychloride in acetonitrile, butyronitrile, toluene or xylene, optionally in the presence of a catalyst to yield a 4-amino-3-quinolinecarbonitrile and also discloses a process for the preparation of a 7-amino-thieno[3,2-b]pyridine-6-carbonitrile comprising combining a disubstituted 3-amino thiophene with a cyanoacetamide and trialkylorthoformate in an alcoholic solvent to obtain a 3-amino-2-cyanoacrylamide; and combining the 3-amino-2-cyanoacrylamide with phosphorus oxychloride and acetonitrile, butyronitrile, toluene or xylene, optionally in the presence of a catalyst to yield a 7-amino-thieno[3,2-b]pyridine-6-carbonitrile and also discloses a process for the preparation of a 4-amino-3-quinolinecarbonitrile by combining an amine compound with a cyanoacetic acid and a peptide coupling reagent to obtain a suspension; filtering the suspension to yield a cyanoacetamide; condensing the cyanoacetamide with an optionally up to tetra-substituted aniline, an alcoholic solvent, and triethylorthoformate to yield a 3-amino-2-cyanoacrylamide; and combining the 3-amino-2-cyanoacrylamide with phosphorus oxychloride to yield a 4-amino-3-quinolinecarbonitrile.
