Thiazolidine-4-one clubbed pyrazoles hybrids: Potent α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitors with NLO properties
Molecular hybrids based on thiazolidin-4-one and pyrazolyl pharmacophore (THZP) as new antidiabetic agents were synthesized. Two sets of signals came into view in 1H NMR of THZP8-THZP14 exhibited the presence of a configurational isomeric mixture of 2E,5Z (38.24%-41.58%) and 2Z,5Z isomers (58.42%-61.76%), which was further endorsed by density functional theory (DFT) studies. All the compounds exhibit promising nonlinear optical properties (NLO). Further, the biological potential of THZPs was explored in terms of α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibition. DFT-based descriptors were calculated to describe the reactivity, and a relationship was developed with biological activities. THZP9 and THZP14 showed remarkable inhibition of α-amylase and α-glucosidase with IC50 9.90μM and 4.84μM, respectively, as compared with standard drug acarbose.

Discovery of aminothiazole derivatives as novel human enterovirus A71 capsid protein inhibitors
Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71), one of the major pathogens that causes hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD), has seriously threatened the health and safety of young children. In this study, aminothiazole derivatives were synthesized and screened against EV-A71 in Rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cells. The best compound (12s), with a biphenyl group, showed activity against EV-A71 (EC50: 0.27 μM) but also against a series of different human enteroviruses without significant cytotoxicity (CC50 > 56.2 μM). Mechanistic studies including time-of-drug-addition assays, viral entry assays and microscale thermophoresis (MST) experiments, showed that 12s binds to EV-A71 capsid and blocks the binding between the viral protein VP1 and the relevant human scavenger receptor class B member 2 (hSCARB2).

Convenient Multicomponent One-Pot Synthesis of 2-Iminothiazolines and 2-Aminothiazoles Using Elemental Sulfur Under Aqueous Conditions
Herein, we present a novel one-pot aqueous reaction for the synthesis of 2-iminothiazolines and 2-aminothiazoles using isocyanides, amines, sulfur, and 2′-bromoacetophenones. The three-component preparation of thioureas is followed by the one-pot cyclization leading to the heterocyclic product. This efficient and mild procedure features excellent step- and atom-economy and enables the chromatography-free preparation of diversely substituted 2-iminothiazoline and 2-aminothiazole derivatives.

Green and efficient synthesis of thioureas, ureas, primary: O -thiocarbamates, and carbamates in deep eutectic solvent/catalyst systems using thiourea and urea
An efficient and general catalysis process was developed for the direct preparation of various primary O-thiocarbamates/carbamates as well as monosubstituted thioureas/ureas by using thiourea/urea as biocompatible thiocarbonyl (carbonyl) sources. This procedure used choline chloride/tin(ii) chloride [ChCl][SnCl2]2 with a dual role as a green catalyst and reaction medium to afford the desired products in moderate to excellent yields. Moreover, the DES can be easily recovered and reused for seven cycles with no significant loss in its activity. Besides, the method shows very good performance for synthesizing the desired products on a large scale.

Design, synthesis, and antipoliferative activities of novel substituted imidazole-thione linked benzotriazole derivatives
A new series of benzotriazole moiety bearing substituted imidazol-2-thiones at N1 has been designed, synthesized and evaluated for in vitro anticancer activity against the different cancer cell lines MCF-7(breast cancer), HL-60 (Human promyelocytic leukemia), and HCT-116 (colon cancer). Most of the benzotriazole analogues exhibited promising antiproliferative activity against tested cancer cell lines. Among all the synthesized compounds, BI9 showed potent activity against the cancer cell lines such as MCF-7, HL-60 and HCT-116 with IC50 3.57, 0.40 and 2.63 μM, respectively. Compound BI9 was taken up for elaborate biological studies and the HL-60 cells in the cell cycle were arrested in G2/M phase. Compound BI9 showed remarkable inhibition of tubulin polymerization with the colchicine binding site of tubulin. In addition, compound BI9 promoted apoptosis by regulating the expression of pro-apoptotic protein BAX and anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2. These results provide guidance for further rational development of potent tubulin polymerization inhibitors for the treatment of cancer.

Identification of: N -benzothiazolyl-2-benzenesulfonamides as novel ABCA1 expression upregulators
ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is a critical transporter that mediates cellular cholesterol efflux from macrophages to apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I). Therefore, increasing the expression level of ABCA1 is anti-atherogenic and ABCA1 expression upregulators have become novel choices for atherosclerosis treatment. In this study, a series of N-benzothiazolyl-2-benzenesulfonamides, based on the structure of WY06 discovered in our laboratory, were designed and synthesized as novel ABCA1 expression upregulators. Based on an in vitro ABCA1 upregulatory cell model, ABCA1 upregulation of target compounds was evaluated. Compounds 6c, 6d, and 6i have good upregulated ABCA1 expression activities, with EC50 values of 0.97, 0.37, and 0.41 ΜM, respectively. A preliminary structure-activity relationship is summarized. Replacing the methoxy group on the benzothiazole moiety of WY06 with a fluorine or chlorine atom and exchanging the ester group with a cyano group resulted in more potent ABCA1 upregulating activity. Moreover, compound 6i increased ABCA1 mRNA and protein expression and significantly promoted cholesterol efflux in RAW264.7 cells. In conclusion, N-benzothiazolyl-2-benzenesulfonamides were identified as novel ABCA1 expression upregulators.

Design, synthesis and antimicrobial study of novel 1-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-chloro-4H-spiro[azetidine-2,3'-indole]-2',4(1'H)-diones through ketene–imine cycloaddition reaction
The present study deals with the synthesis of novel 1-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-chloro-4H-spiro[azetidine-2,3'-indole]-2',4(1'H)-dione derivatives from the reaction of 3-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylimino)-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one derivatives with chloroacetyl chloride in the presence of triethyl-amine (TEA). The mechanism involved simple acid or base catalysed reaction through the formation of Schiff base followed by cyclisation via ketene–imine cycloaddition reaction. All synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR,1H-NMR,13C-NMR, and elemental analysis. The antimicrobial activities of the synthesized derivatives 5a-5g were examined via Micro Broth Dilution method against bacterial strains Bacillius subtilis, Staphylcoccus aureus, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, and fungal strain Candida albicans for determining MIC values. Ampicillin, chloramphenicol, and griseofulvin were used as standard drugs. The MIC values for antimicrobial activity of synthesized compounds were examined using Micro Broth Dilution method. Compounds 5a, 5b, and 5c were found effective against E. coli (MTCC 442) and P.aeruginosa (MTCC 441) and all compounds showed moderate to excellent activity against Streptococcus aureus (MTCC 96) and Bacillius subtilis (MTCC 441). Regarding the antifungal screening, compounds 5a, 5b, and 5c exhibited excellent activity against Candida albicans MTCC 227. 1-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-chloro-4H-spiro[azetidine-2,3'-indole]-2',4(1'H)-dione derivatives may be used as potential lead molecules as effective antimicrobial agents.

Synthetic (E)-3-phenyl-5-(phenylamino)-2-styryl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-3-ium chloride derivatives as promising chemotherapy agents on cell lines infected with HTLV-1
Synthesis of four compounds belonging to mesoionic class, (E)-3-phenyl-5-(phenylamino)-2-styryl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-3-ium chloride derivatives (5a-d) and their biological evaluation against MT2 and C92 cell lines infected with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1), which causes adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL), and non-infected cell lines (Jurkat) are reported. The compounds were obtained by convergent synthesis under microwave irradiation and the cytotoxicity was evaluated using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays. Results showed IC50 values of all compounds in the range of 1.51-7.70 μM in HTLV-1-infected and non-infected cells. Furthermore, it was observed that 5b could induce necrosis after 24 h for Jurkat and MT2 cell lines. The experimental (fluorimetric method) and theoretical (molecular docking) results suggested that the mechanism of action for 5b could be related to its capacity to intercalate into DNA. Moreover, the preliminary pharmacokinetic profile of the studied compounds (5a-d) was obtained through human serum albumin (HSA) binding affinity using multiple spectroscopic techniques (circular dichroism, steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence), zeta potential and molecular docking calculations. The interaction HSA:5a-d is spontaneous and moderate (Ka ～ 104 M-1) via a ground-state association, without significantly perturbing both the secondary and surface structures of the albumin in the subdomain IIA (site I), indicating feasible biodistribution in the human bloodstream.

Discovery of novel pyrimidine-based benzothiazole derivatives as potent cyclin-dependent kinase 2 inhibitors with anticancer activity
To develop novel CDK2 inhibitors as anticancer agents, a series of novel pyrimidine-based benzothiazole derivatives were designed and synthesized. Initial biological evaluation demonstrated some of target compounds displayed potent antitumor activity in vitro against five cancer cell lines. Especially, the analogue 10s exhibited approximately potency with AZD5438 toward four cells including HeLa, HCT116, PC-3, and MDA-MB-231 with IC50 values of 0.45, 0.70, 0.92, 1.80 μM, respectively. More interestingly, the most highly active compound 10s in this study also possessed promising CDK2/cyclin A2 inhibitory activities with IC50 values of 15.4 nM, which was almost 3-fold potent than positive control AZD5438, and molecular docking studies revealed that the analogue bound efficiently with the CDK2 binding site. Further studies indicated that compound 10s could induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner. These observations suggest that pyrimidine-benzothiazole hybrids represent a new class of CDK2 inhibitors and well worth further investigation aiming to generate potential anticancer agents.

Effect of N-1 arylation of monastrol on kinesin Eg5 inhibition in glioma cell lines
An original and focused library of two sets of dihydropyrimidin-2-thiones (DHPMs) substituted with N-1 aryl groups derived from monastrol was designed and synthesized in order to discover a more effective Eg5 ligand than the template. Based on molecular docking studies, four ligands were selected to perform pharmacological investigations against two glioma cell lines. The results led to the discovery of two original compounds, called 20h and 20e, with an anti-proliferative effects, achieving IC50 values of about half that of the IC50 of monastrol in both cell lines. As with monastrol, flow cytometry analyses showed that the 20e and 20h compounds induced cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase, and immunocytochemistry essays revealed the formation of monopolar spindles due to Eg5 inhibition without any toxicity to Caenorhabditis elegans.

Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticle supported ionic liquid for green synthesis of antibacterially active 1-carbamoyl-1-phenylureas in water
In the present work, we have designed a novel, heterogeneous and recyclable magnetic Br?nsted acidic ionic liquid based on 5-phenyl-1H-tetrazole. The {Fe3O4@SiO2@CH2)35-phenyl-1H-tetrazole-SO3H/Cl} ([FSTet-SO3H]Cl) was prepared via the immobilization of 5-phenyl-1H-tetrazole-bonded sulfonic acid onto the surface of silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles using 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane as a linker. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, TEM, FESEM, EDS, TG-DTA, and FT-IR. The ability and high activity of this catalyst were demonstrated in the synthesis of 1-carbamoyl-1-phenylureas with good to excellent yields via a new, simple and one-pot procedure in aqueous media under reflux conditions. This procedure has advantages such as high yields, short reaction times, a simple methodology and work-up process, green reaction conditions, high stability, catalytic activity, and easy preparation, separation and reusability of the catalyst. The synthesis of these compounds was confirmed by FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and CHN. In addition, we investigated the biological properties of the 1-carbamoyl-1-phenylureas as newly synthesized compounds. The described catalyst could be easily separated from the reaction mixture by additional magnetic force and reused several times without a remarkable loss of its catalytic activity and any considerable changes in the product yield and the reaction time.

Convenient one-pot formation of highly functionalized 5-bromo-2-aminothiazoles, potential endocannabinoid hydrolase MAGL inhibitors
Highly functionalized 5-bromo-2-amino-1,3-thiazoles bearing various substituents could be easily prepared by a rapid and efficient one-pot method, using simple starting materials and mild conditions while avoiding the use of metal catalysts or inconvenient reagents such as elemental halogens. These useful products can serve as starting materials for other reactions or as pharmacologically interesting compounds. In our work we have shown that the resulting 5-bromothiazole compounds could lead to monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) inhibition in the μM range.

Cobalt-promoted one-pot reaction of isothiocyanates toward the synthesis of aryl/alkylcyanamides and substituted tetrazoles
[Figure not available: see fulltext.] The synthesis of cyanamides and tetrazoles from isothiocyanates through tandem reaction using cobalt catalyst has been demonstrated. In the case of tetrazole preparation, the reaction involved addition/desulfurization/nucleophilic addition/electrocyclization, whereas aromatic cyanamides were constructed from isothiocyanates through addition/desulfurization. Cheap cobalt sulfate was used for the synthesis of various cyanamides and tetrazoles. In addition, cobalt catalyst was found to be desulfurization reagent that has not been previously reported. The final products have been obtained from starting precursors in good to high yield.

The present work describes synthesis of a series of 5-((1-(4-(4-chlorophenyl)thiazol-2-yl)-3- aryl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methylene)-2-(arylimino)thiazolidin-4-one derivatives and their molecular docking and biological evaluation as possible antimalarial, anthelmintic and antimicrobial agents. The synthesis of compounds has been accomplished by adopting suitable synthetic methods. Structures of newly synthesized compounds were characterized and authenticated by spectral methods such as IR, 1H-NMR and mass spectra. Synthesized compounds were screened for their in vitro antimicrobial activity against selected bacterial strains and fungal strains viz. B. subtilis, S. aureus, E. coli, P. fluorescens, C. albicans, C. glabrata and antimalarial studies against P. falciparum. Titled compounds were also tested against Pheretima posthuma (earthworm) for their anthelmintic activity. Molecular docking was done to study the binding modes of the potent compounds against Escherichia coli (PDB ID: 1AB4) and Candida P450DM (PDB ID: 1EA1) enzymes. The results revealed that all the compounds exhibited moderate to significant antimicrobial activities. Antimalarial activity screening revealed that one compound 8i showed significant antimalarial activity with of IC50; 0.59 μg/mL as compared to standard drugs chloroquine (IC50= 0.020 μg/mL) and quinine (IC50; 0.268 μg/mL). The most active compound exhibited the mean paralysis time of 19.2 ± 0.9 min and mean death time of 31.7 ± 2.5 min. It can be concluded that some of the synthesized compounds have remarkable antiinfective, antimalarial and anthelmintic activity and are suitable candidates for further scientific exploration.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of hydantoin bridged analogues of combretastatin A-4 as potential anticancer agents
A series of novel hydantoin-bridged analogues of combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) were designed, synthesized and evaluated for antiproliferative activities in vitro and in vivo. The most potent compound 8d, showed potent cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 0.186–0.279 μM, and possessed the efficacy of inhibiting tubulin polymerization, disrupting in vitro vascularization, blocking cell cycle in G2/M phase and inducing cell apoptosis. In the nude mice xenograft model, 8d significantly inhibited the tumor growth and showed low toxicity. Further chiral separation proved (R)-(?)-8d to be the preferential enantiomer with IC50 values of 0.081–0.157 M. These results indicated that the hydantoin derivatives merit further investigation as potential anticancer agents that inhibit tubulin polymerization.

One-Pot Multicomponent Synthesis of Thiourea Derivatives in Cyclotriphosphazenes Moieties
In this study, hexasubstituted thiourea was carried out via reaction of isothiocyanato cyclophosphazene intermediates with a series of aromatics amines and amino acids in a one-pot reaction system. The reaction was not as straightforward as typical thiourea synthesis. Six unexpected thiourea derivatives 3a-f were formed in the presence of cyclotriphosphazene moieties in good yields (53-82%). The structures of 3a-f were characterized by elemental analysis and FTIR, 1H, 13C, and 31P NMR spectroscopies. The occurrence of reverse thioureas formation in a one-pot reaction system is discussed. The possible binding interaction of the synthesised thiourea 3a-b in comparison to the predicted phenyl thiourea 5a-b and the targeted 4a with enzyme enoyl ACP reductase (FabI) is also discussed. Molecular docking of the targeted hexasubstituted thiourea 4a is able to give higher binding affinity of -7.5 kcal/mol compared to 5a-b (-5.9 kcal/mol and -6.3 kcal/mol) and thiourea 3a-b (-4.5 kcal/mol and -4.7 Kcal/mol).

Synthesis and bioevaluation of N,4-diaryl-1,3-thiazole-2-amines as tubulin inhibitors with potent antiproliferative activity
A series of N,4-diaryl-1,3-thiazole-2-amines containing three aromatic rings with an amino linker were designed and synthesized as tubulin inhibitors and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity in three human cancer cell lines. Most of the target compounds displayed moderate antiproliferative activity, and N-(2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-amine (10s) was determined to be the most potent compound. Tubulin polymerization and immunostaining experiments revealed that 10s potently inhibited tubulin polymerization and disrupted tubulin microtubule dynamics in a manner similar to CA-4. Moreover, 10s effectively induced SGC-7901 cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase in both concentrationand time-dependent manners. The molecular docking results revealed that 10s could bind to the colchicine binding site of tubulin.

A series of novel N-aryl-5-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethyl)-4-(tert-butyl)thiazol-2-amines (C1-C31) were synthesized and evaluated for their antitumor activities against HeLa, A549 and MCF-7 cell lines. Some tested compounds showed potent growth inhibition properties with IC50 values generally below 5 μM against the three human cancer cells lines. Compound C27 showed potent activities against HeLa and A549 cell lines with IC50 values of 2.07 ± 0.88 μM and 3.52 ± 0.49 μM, respectively. Compound C7 (IC50 = 2.06 ± 0.09 μM) was the most active compound against A549 cell line, while compound C16 (IC50 = 2.55 ± 0.34 μM) showed the best inhibitory activity against the MCF-7 cell line. The preliminary mechanism of the inhibitory effect was investigated via further experiments, such as morphological analysis by dual AO/EB staining and Hoechst 33342 staining, and cell apoptosis and cycle assessment by FACS analysis. The results illustrated that compound C27 could induce apoptosis and cause both S-phase and G2/M-phase arrests in HeLa cell line. Therefore, compound C27 could be developed as a potential antitumor agent.

Probing the ATP-Binding Pocket of Protein Kinase DYRK1A with Benzothiazole Fragment Molecules
DYRK1A has emerged as a potential target for therapies of Alzheimer's disease using small molecules. On the basis of the observation of selective DYRK1A inhibition by firefly d-luciferin, we have explored static and dynamic structural properties of fragment sized variants of the benzothiazole scaffold with respect to DYRK1A using X-ray crystallography and NMR techniques. The compounds have excellent ligand efficiencies and show a remarkable diversity of binding modes in dynamic equilibrium. Binding geometries are determined in part by interactions often considered "weak", including "orthogonal multipolar" types represented by, for example, F-CO, sulfur-aromatic, and halogen-aromatic interactions, together with hydrogen bonds that are modulated by variation of electron withdrawing groups. These studies show how the benzothiazole scaffold is highly promising for the development of therapeutic DYRK1A inhibitors. In addition, the subtleties of the binding interactions, including dynamics, show how full structural studies are required to fully interpret the essential physical determinants of binding.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel HSP70 inhibitors: N, N′-disubstituted thiourea derivatives
As novel heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) inhibitors, N, N′-disubstituted thiourea derivatives were designed and synthesized based on the X-ray structure of the ATPase domain (nucleotide binding domain, NBD). An ATPase activity inhibition assay revealed that these compounds effectively inhibited HSP70 ATPase activity. The results revealed that the compounds 370/371/374/379/380//392/394/397/404/405 and 407 can inhibit the HSP70 ATPase turnover with high percentages of inhibition: 50.42, 38.46, 50.45, 44.12, 47.13, 50.50, 40.95, 65.36, 46.23, 35.78, and 58.37 in 200 μM, respectively. Significant synergies with lapatinib were observed for compound 379 and compound 405 in the BT474 breast cancer cell line. A structure-function analysis revealed that most of the thiourea derivatives exhibited cooperative action with lapatinib in the BT474 cancer cell line and the BT/LapR1.0 lapatinib-resistant cell line. HSP70 inhibitors may be developed as synergetic drugs in drug-resistant cancer therapy.

Synthesis of monosubstituted thioureas by vapour digestion and mechanochemical amination of thiocarbamoyl benzotriazoles
Thiocarbamoyl benzotriazoles, as safe and easy-to-handle isothiocyanate equivalents, were quantitatively converted to N-monosubstituted thioureas by vapour digestion synthesis under an ammonia atmosphere. This simple, but timely process provided a synthetic platform that enabled the "slow" amination reaction to be successfully transformed into a rapid one aided by mechanochemical milling. The ammonium chloride/sodium carbonate equimolar mixture allowed in situ formation of ammonia under ball-milling conditions. This novel and green approach yielded aromatic and aliphatic primary thioureas in near-quantitative isolated yields with workup entirely based on using only water. In addition, the molecular and crystal structures of selected polyaromatic primary thioureas were determined from the synchrotron powder diffraction data.

Novel Piperine Derivatives with Antidiabetic Effect as PPAR-γ Agonists
Piperine is an alkaloid responsible for the pungency of black pepper. In this study, piperine isolated from Piper nigrum L. was hydrolyzed under basic condition to obtain piperic acid and was used as precursor to carry out the synthesis of twenty piperine derivatives containing benzothiazole moiety. All the benzothiazole derivatives were evaluated for their antidiabetic potential by OGT test followed by assessment of active derivatives on STZ-induced diabetic model. It was observed that nine of twenty novel piperine analogues (5b, 6a-h), showed significantly higher antidiabetic activity in comparison with rosiglitazone (standard). Furthermore, these active derivatives were evaluated for their action as PPAR-γ agonists demonstrating their mechanism of action. The effects on body weight, lipid peroxidation, and hepatotoxicity after administration with active derivatives were also studied to further establish these derivatives as lead molecules for treatment of diabetes with lesser side-effects.

Design, synthesis, X-ray crystallographic analysis, and biological evaluation of thiazole derivatives as potent and selective inhibitors of human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase
Human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (HsDHODH) is a flavin-dependent mitochondrial enzyme that has been certified as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases. On the basis of lead compound 4, which was previously identified as potential HsDHODH inhibitor, a novel series of thiazole derivatives were designed and synthesized. The X-ray complex structures of the promising analogues 12 and 33 confirmed that these inhibitors bind at the putative ubiquinone binding tunnel and guided us to explore more potent inhibitors, such as compounds 44, 46, and 47 which showed double digit nanomolar activities of 26, 18, and 29 nM, respectively. Moreover, 44 presented considerable anti-inflammation effect in vivo and significantly alleviated foot swelling in a dose-dependent manner, which disclosed that thiazole-scaffold analogues can be developed into the drug candidates for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis by suppressing the bioactivity of HsDHODH.

Design, synthesis and evaluation of 2-aminothiazole derivatives as sphingosine kinase inhibitors
Sphingosine kinases (SphK1, SphK2) are main regulators of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), which is a pleiotropic lipid mediator involved in numerous physiological and pathophysiological functions. SphKs are targets for novel anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory agents that can promote cell apoptosis and modulate autoimmune diseases. Herein, we describe the design, synthesis and evaluation of an aminothiazole class of SphK inhibitors. Potent inhibitors have been discovered through a series of modifications using the known SKI-II scaffold to define structure-activity relationships. We identified N-(4-methylthiazol-2-yl)-(2,4′-bithiazol)-2′-amine (24, ST-1803; IC50values: 7.3 μM (SphK1), 6.5 μM (SphK2)) as a promising candidate for further in vivo investigations and structural development.

Synthesis, cytotoxic evaluation, and in silico studies of substituted N-alkylbromo-benzothiazoles
In efforts to develop a new class of anticancer agents with improved efficacy and selective action, a series of N-alkylbromo-benzothiazoles were synthesized and evaluated for in vitro cytotoxic activity against various human cancer cell lines such as lung (A-549), prostate (PC-3), leukemia (THP-1), and colon (Caco-2). They were found to be highly active against prostate (PC-3) and leukemia (THP-1) cancer cells, moderately active against colon (Caco-2) cancer cells and less active against lung (A-549) cancer cells. Of the 12 compounds, two (11d, 11j) exhibit IC50 values of ≤ 1 μM against leukemia (THP-1) cancer cell lines. Compound 11l showed significant cytotoxic activity against the PC-3 (IC50 = 0.6 μM), THP-1 (IC50 = 3 μM) and Caco-2 cell lines (IC50 = 9.9 μM), respectively. Docking study of the synthesized ligand was done on epidermal growth factor receptor using ArgusLab flexible docking, to determine their observed activity. Further QSAR investigations with stepwise multiple linear regression analysis were applied to find correlation between various physicochemical parameters and anticancer activity. The QSAR results showed that anticancer activity could be modeled with descriptors. The predictive ability of models was cross-validated by observation of the low residual activity values and adjusted coefficient of variation (radj2) obtained by leave-one-out technique.

Design and synthesis of N-Aryl isothioureas as a novel class of gastric H+/K+-ATPase inhibitors
To find new H+/K+-ATPase inhibitors for the treatment of peptic ulcer disease, a series of novel N-aryl isothiourea derivatives were synthesized and their structures were identified by 1H NMR and GC-MS. The effects of these compounds on inhibiting gastric acid secretion were evaluated by the guinea pig stomach mucous membrane study with pantoprazole magnesium as a positive control. The results showed that, of the 37 N-aryl isothiourea compounds synthesized, 20 compounds have comparable or stronger gastric acid inhibitory activities than that of pantoprazole magnesium. The quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) of the N-aryl isothiourea compounds were also studied by comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) computation, and the model structure that was supposed to give more powerful bioactivities was finally predicted. A series of novel N-aryl isothiourea derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their effects of inhibiting gastric acid secretion using the guinea pig stomach mucous membrane study with pantoprazole magnesium as a positive control. Compounds 2c, 2e, and 2k have higher bioactivity. The quantitative structure-activity relationships also defined these structural requirements.

Bromineless bromine as an efficient desulfurizing agent for the preparation of cyanamides and 2-aminothiazoles from dithiocarbamate salts
In a one-pot procedure, bromineless brominating reagent 1,1'-(ethane-1,2-diyl)dipyridinium bistribromide (EDPBT) has been used as a desulfurizing agent in the preparation of organic cyanamides and substituted thiazoles starting from dithiocarbamic acid salts. In this approach, alkyl/aryl isothiocyantes were first obtained by the desulfurization of dithiocarbamic acid salts with EDPBT. The in situ-generated isothiocyanates reacts with an aqueous ammonia, forming alkyl or aryl thioureas, which on subsequent oxidative desulfurization with EDPBT led to the formation of corresponding cyanamides in good yields. Alternatively, an efficient one-pot synthesis of substituted thiazoles has been achieved by the condensation of the in situ-generated 1-aryl thioureas with the in situ-generated -bromoketones from ketones, again using EDPBT. The reagent EDPBT can be easily prepared from the readily available reagents. Desulfurizing ability dominates over its brominating ability for substrates amenable to bromination.

Design, synthesis and pharmacological screening of hybrid molecules as antihypertensives
The synthesis and pharmacological profile of a series of hybrid compounds bearing the dihydropyrimidine moiety and substituted phenylthioureas joined via typical b-blocker aryloxypropanolamine group are described. Seven out of 10 new compounds tested proved to be endowed with negative inotropic and chronotropic effect as compared to Adrenaline on isolated perfused frog heart. Also ECG studies that were carried out on normotensive male rats showed that the most of the compounds exhibited significant reduction in Rmax value in the first 30 min although maintaining little change in heart rate, with hypotensive effect lasting for 1 h.We concluded that the most of the synthesized novel compounds exhibited hypotensive as well as antihypertensive effects which could be attributed to blockade of Ca2+ entry and β-adrenoreceptor blocking activities due to introduction of aryloxypropanolamine linked to N-1 substituted dihydropyrimidine moiety. Brady cardiac effects of compounds 5a-5d, 6c-6e resulting from Ca2+entry and β-adrenoreceptor blocking attenuate the sympathetic activation-associated reflex tachycardia in the heart. We selected compound 5c as a promising lead for further detailed pharmacological and preclinical evaluation studies. Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2010.

4-Pyridylanilinothiazoles that selectively target von Hippel - Lindau deficient renal cell carcinoma cells by inducing autophagic cell death
Renal cell carcinomas (RCC) are refractory to standard therapy with advanced RCC having a poor prognosis; consequently treatment of advanced RCC represents an unmet clinical need. The von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor gene is mutated or inactivated in a majority of RCCs. We recently identified a 4-pyridyl-2-anilinothiazole (PAT) with selective cytotoxicity against VHL-deficient renal cells mediated by induction of autophagy and increased acidification of autolysosomes. We report exploration of structure-activity relationships (SAR) around this PAT lead. Analogues with substituents on each of the three rings, and various linkers between rings, were synthesized and tested in vitro using paired RCC4 cell lines. A contour map describing the relative spatial contributions of different chemical features to potency illustrates a region, adjacent to the pyridyl ring, with potential for further development. Examples probing this domain validated this approach and may provide the opportunity to develop this novel chemotype as a targeted approach to the treatment of RCC. 2009 American Chemical Society.

Structural requirement(s) of N-phenylthioureas and benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazones as inhibitors of melanogenesis in melanoma B 16 cells
In order to define the structural requirements of phenylthiourea (PTU), a series of thiourea and thiosemicarbazone analogs were prepared and evaluated as inhibitors of melanogenesis in melanoma B16 cells. The most potent analog was 2-(4-tert-butylbenzylidene)hydrazinecarbothioamide (1u) with an IC50 value of 2.7 μM in inhibition of melanogenesis. The structure for potent inhibitory activity of these derivatives are required with the direct connection of π-planar structure to thiourea without steric hinderance in PTU derivatives and the hydrophobic substituent at para position in case of semicarbazones.
