- Design, synthesis, in vitro and in vivo evaluation against MRSA and molecular docking studies of novel pleuromutilin derivatives bearing 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole linker
-
A class of pleuromutilin derivatives containing 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole were designed and synthesized as potential antibacterial agents against Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The ultrasound-assisted reaction was proposed as a green chemistry method to synthesize 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole derivatives (intermediates 85–110). Among these pleuromutilin derivatives, compound 133 was found to be the strongest antibacterial derivative against MRSA (MIC = 0.125 μg/mL). Furthermore, the result of the time-kill curves displayed that compound 133 could inhibit the growth of MRSA in vitro quickly (- 4.36 log10 CFU/mL reduction). Then, compound 133 (- 1.82 log10 CFU/mL) displayed superior in vivo antibacterial efficacy than tiamulin (- 0.82 log10 CFU/mL) in reducing MRSA load in mice thigh model. Besides, compound 133 exhibited low cytotoxicity to RAW 264.7 cells. Molecular docking studies revealed that compound 133 was successfully localized in the binding pocket of 50S ribosomal subunit (ΔGb = -10.50 kcal/mol). The results indicated that these pleuromutilin derivatives containing 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole might be further developed into novel antibiotics against MRSA.

- Development of Novel (+)-Nootkatone Thioethers Containing 1,3,4-Oxadiazole/Thiadiazole Moieties as Insecticide Candidates against Three Species of Insect Pests
-
To improve the insecticidal activity of (+)-nootkatone, a series of 42 (+)-nootkatone thioethers containing 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole moieties were prepared to evaluate their insecticidal activities against Mythimna separata Walker, Myzus persicae Sulzer, and Plutella xylostella Linnaeus. Insecticidal evaluation revealed that most of the title derivatives exhibited more potent insecticidal activities than the precursor (+)-nootkatone after the introduction of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole on (+)-nootkatone. Among all of the (+)-nootkatone derivatives, compound 8c (1 mg/mL) exhibited the best growth inhibitory (GI) activity against M. separata with a final corrected mortality rate (CMR) of 71.4%, which was 1.54- and 1.43-fold that of (+)-nootkatone and toosendanin, respectively; 8c also displayed the most potent aphicidal activity against M. persicae with an LD50 value of 0.030 μg/larvae, which was closer to that of the commercial insecticidal etoxazole (0.026 μg/larvae); and 8s showed the best larvicidal activity against P. xylostella with an LC50 value of 0.27 mg/mL, which was 3.37-fold that of toosendanin and slightly higher than that of etoxazole (0.28 mg/mL). Furthermore, the control efficacy of 8s against P. xylostella in the pot experiments under greenhouse conditions was better than that of etoxazole. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) revealed that in most cases, the introduction of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole containing halophenyl groups at the C-13 position of (+)-nootkatone could obtain more active derivatives against M. separata, M. persicae, and P. xylostella than those containing other groups. In addition, toxicity assays indicated that these (+)-nootkatone derivatives had good selectivity to insects over nontarget organisms (normal mammalian NRK-52E cells and C. idella and N. denticulata fries) with relatively low toxicity. Therefore, the above results indicate that these (+)-nootkatone derivatives could be further explored as new lead compounds for the development of potential eco-friendly pesticides.

- Antibacterial and Antiviral Activities of 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Thioether 4H-Chromen-4-one Derivatives
-
Various 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether 4H-chromen-4-one derivatives were conceived. The title compounds demonstrated striking inhibitory effects againstXac,Psa, andXoo. EC50data exhibited that A8 (19.7 μg/mL) had better antibacterial activity againstXoothan myricetin, BT, and TC. Simultaneously, the mechanism of action of A8 had been verified by SEM. The results of anti-tobacco mosaic virus indicated that A9 had the bestin vivoantiviral effect compared with ningnanmycin. From the data of MST, it could be seen that A9 (0.003 ± 0.001 μmol/L) exhibited a strong binding capacity, which was far superior to ningnanmycin (2.726 ± 1.301 μmol/L). This study shows that the 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether 4H-chromen-4-one derivatives may become agricultural drugs with great potential.

- Ultrasound-assisted, low-solvent and acid/base-free synthesis of 5-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiols as potent antimicrobial and antioxidant agents
-
Abstract: One of the goals of green chemistry is to use environmentally friendly solvents or remove and reduce the volume of harmful spent solvents. In this study, a novel process for the synthesis of 5-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol derivatives was proposed via ultrasound-assisted reaction of aryl hydrazides with CS2 (1:1 molar ratio) in some drops of DMF in the absence of basic or acidic catalysts. They were produced in good to excellent yields under easy workup and purification conditions. In order to prove the usefulness of the prepared compounds, their antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal potentials were screened by DPPH free radical scavenging, serial twofold microdilution and streak plate methods. Acceptable to significant inhibitory activities were observed with synthesized heterocycles. The results showed that 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol (3c) is an broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent. Many of them displayed remarkable antioxidant properties comparable to standard controls (ascorbic acid and α-tocopherol). Synthesized 1,3,4-oxadiazoles are also potent candidates to treat cancer, Parkinson, inflammatory, and diabetes diseases. Graphic Abstract: Eighteen 5-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol derivatives as potent antimicrobial and antioxidant agents were prepared via a new, efficient and green procedure.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

- Design, synthesis, and in vitro evaluation of novel 1,3,4-oxadiazolecarbamothioate derivatives of Rivastigmine as selective inhibitors of BuChE
-
Rivastigmine has been prescribed for the therapy of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) symptoms. This drug is classified in the carbamate derivative group that has dual activity against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE). According to the structure of Rivastigmine and its performance, a new series of 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-carbamothioate compounds I–XI was synthesized using structure-based drug discovery approaches. For this purpose a set of these compounds were designed with computational docking method and their interactions with amino acid residues in the active sites of AChE and BuChE checked out. The structures of synthesized compounds were established by physicochemical and spectroscopic methods. The carbamoyl moiety of Rivastigmine structure was modified to carbamothioate and the effects of 1,3,4-oxadiazole heterocycle as a pharmacophoric nucleus were investigated. The potential of the synthesized compounds I–XI was evaluated against two most known agents of AD (AChE and BuChE) to determine their IC50 values. The results of the docking showed the range of binding affinity for the best poses of ten individual conformers for any compounds (I–XI) was between ?7.81 (VI) and ?6.75 (II) kcal/mol. The results of biological experiments displayed that most synthetic compounds (I–VIII) showed moderate to excellent selective activity range against BuChE (0.51–69.44 μM). In vitro cytotoxicity evaluation of these compounds (I–XI) by MTT assay on human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cell line exhibited no activity against HDF. The compound VI [S-(5-(p-tolyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) ethyl(methyl)carbamothioate] showed the most stable binding affinity (?7.81 kcal/mol) and the lowest IC50 value (0.51 μM) in comparison with Rivastigmine with 7.72 μM and Donepezil with 5.20 μM against BuChE.

- New gold (I) complexes with 5-aromatic ring-1, 3, 4-oxadiazole-2-thione and triphenylphosphine as potential multifunctional materials
-
Three new gold (I) complexes (4a, 4b, 4c) with 5-aromatic ring-1, 3, 4-oxadiazole-2-thione and triphenylphosphine as ligands were synthesized. Structures of 4a and 4b were determined through X-ray single-crystal diffraction, and it displayed that 4a and 4b had the same metal coordination pattern, wherein the ligand was coordinated by the sulfur atom to the central metal ion of gold (I). The optical properties of these gold (I) complexes were studied both in solution and in solid-state. In DMSO, 4a and 4b peaked at 415 nm and 443 nm, respectively, and the CIE coordinates of 4a and 4b in the solid-state were in the green area namely, (0.26, 0.46) and (0.24, 0.41). HOMO/LUMO levels and bandgaps of 4a, 4b and 4c were assessed by UV spectrum estimation, electrochemical method, and theoretical calculations. The observation hinted that the photophysical properties and energy levels of these gold (I) complexes can be adjusted by the introduction of different substituent aromatic rings at the 5-position of the 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole-2-thiol moiety. The findings of good optical, electrochemical and thermal properties of these new gold (I) complexes demonstrated their potential in the future studies as multifunctional materials.

- Design and synthesis of quinoxaline-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrid derivatives as potent inhibitors of the anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein
-
Quinoxaline is one of the privileged heterocyclic fragments for drug molecules. Quinoxaline anticancer drug candidates XK469 and CQS exhibit antiproliferative and proapoptotic properties against various cancers. Based on their chemical structures, we therefore synthesized a series of quinoxaline-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrids and assessed their anticancer potential on human leukemia HL-60 cells. Although these hybrids exerted significant inhibition of HL-60 cell proliferation, they showed high cytotoxicity on human normal cells (WI-38). Utilizing information from molecular modelling of the hybrids to the anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein, we added substructures including phenyl, piperazine, piperidine, and morpholine rings to their frameworks. The designed quinoxaline-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrid derivatives successfully induced apoptotic response on HL-60 cells with low toxicity on WI-38 cells. Furthermore, RT-PCR analysis demonstrated that these derivatives predominantly inhibit Bcl-2 expression. Our findings highlight the great potential for the development of synthetic quinoxaline-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrid derivatives as proapoptotic anticancer agents.

- Synthesis of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives as potent antiproliferative agents via a hybrid pharmacophore approach
-
Imiquimod (1-isobutyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine) is efficacious in topical therapy for certain types of skin cancers. Structurally similar EAPB0203 (N-methyl-1-(2-phenethyl)imidazo[1,2-a]quinoxalin-4-amine) has been shown higher in vitro potency than imiquimod. Besides, triazole, oxadiazole, and thiadiazole rings are privileged building blocks in drug design. A series of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline-1,3,4-oxadiazole and [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives were therefore synthesized by incorporation of these rings into the structure of EAPB0203 and assessed their antiproliferative effects against various cancer cell lines. The 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives demonstrated the superior effectiveness compared to imiquimod and EAPB0203. Our findings highlight the excellent potential of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives as anticancer agents.

- 5-Aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthioalkanoic Acids: A Highly Potent New Class of Inhibitors of Rho/Myocardin-Related Transcription Factor (MRTF)/Serum Response Factor (SRF)-Mediated Gene Transcription as Potential Antifibrotic Agents for Scleroderma
-
Through a phenotypic high-throughput screen using a serum response element luciferase promoter, we identified a novel 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthiopropionic acid lead inhibitor of Rho/myocardin-related transcription factor (MRTF)/serum response factor (SRF)-mediated gene transcription with good potency (IC50 = 180 nM). We were able to rapidly improve the cellular potency by 5 orders of magnitude guided by sharply defined and synergistic SAR. The remarkable potency and depth of the SAR, as well as the relatively low molecular weight of the series, suggests, but does not prove, that binding to the unknown molecular target may be occurring through a covalent mechanism. The series nevertheless has no observable cytotoxicity up to 100 μM. Ensuing pharmacokinetic optimization resulted in the development of two potent and orally bioavailable anti-fibrotic agents that were capable of dose-dependently reducing connective tissue growth factor gene expression in vitro as well as significantly reducing the development of bleomycin-induced dermal fibrosis in mice in vivo.

- Sulfone-Based Probes Unraveled Dihydrolipoamide S-Succinyltransferase as an Unprecedented Target in Phytopathogens
-
Target validation of current drugs remains the major challenge for target-based drug discovery, especially for agrochemical discovery. The bactericide 0 represents a novel lead structure and has shown potent efficacy against those diseases that are extremely difficult to control, such as rice bacterial leaf blight. However, no detailed target analysis of this bactericide has been reported. Here, we developed a panel of 0-derived probes 1?6, in which a conservative modification (alkyne tag) was introduced to keep the antibacterial activity of 0 and provide functionality for target identification via click chemistry. With these cell-permeable probes, we were able to discover dihydrolipoamide S-succinyltransferase (DLST) as an unprecedented target in living cells. The probes showed good preference for DLST, especially probe 1, which demonstrated distinct selectivity and reactivity. Also, we reported 0 as the first covalent DLST inhibitor, which has been used to confirm the involvement of DLST in the regulation of energy production.

- Rational Optimization and Action Mechanism of Novel Imidazole (or Imidazolium)-Labeled 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Thioethers as Promising Antibacterial Agents against Plant Bacterial Diseases
-
The emergence and widespread occurrence of plant bacterial diseases that cause global production constraints have become major challenges to agriculture worldwide. To promote the discovery and development of new bactericides, imidazole-labeled 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioethers were first fabricated by integrating the crucially bioactive scaffolds of the imidazole motif and 1,3,4-oxadiazole skeleton in a single molecular architecture. Subsequently, a superior antibacterial compound A6 was gradually discovered possessing excellent competence against plant pathogens Xanthomonas oryzae pv oryzae and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv citri with EC50 values of 0.734 and 1.79 μg/mL, respectively. These values were better than those of commercial agents bismerthiazol (92.6 μg/mL) and thiodiazole copper (77.0 μg/mL). Further modifying the imidazole moiety into the imidazolium scaffold led to the discovery of an array of potent antibacterial compounds providing the corresponding minimum EC50 values of 0.295 and 0.607 μg/mL against the two strains. Moreover, a plausible action mechanism for attacking pathogens was proposed based on the concentration dependence of scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and fluorescence microscopy images. Given the simple molecular structures, easy synthetic procedure, and highly efficient bioactivity, imidazole (or imidazolium)-labeled 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioethers can be further explored and developed as promising indicators for the development of commercial drugs.

-
An electrophile, 2-bromo-N-(5-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)acetamide, was synthesized by the reaction of 5-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-amine and bromoacetyl bromide in an aqueous medium. In a parallel scheme, a series of (un)substituted benzoic acids was converted sequentially into respective esters, acid hydrazides, and then into 1,3,4-oxadiazole heterocyclic cores. The electrophile was coupled with the aforementioned 1,3,4-oxadiazoles to obtain the targeted bi-heterocyles. Structural analysis of the synthesized compounds was performed by IR, EI-MS, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR. The enzyme inhibition study of these molecules was carried out against four enzymes, namely, acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, α-glucosidase, and urease. The interactions of these compounds with respective enzymes were recognized by their in silico study. Moreover, their cytotoxicity was also determined to find out their utility as possible therapeutic agents.

-
Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) is an angiogenic enzyme. It plays an important role in angiogenesis, tumour growth, invasion and metastasis. In current research work, we study the effect of structural modification of dihydropyrimidine-2-ones (DHPM-2-ones) on TP inhibition. A series of eighteen new derivatives of 3,4-dihydropyrimidone-2-one were designed and synthesized through the structural modification at C-6 position. All these new derivatives were then assessed for in-vitro inhibition of thymidine phosphorylase (TP) from E. coli. Oxadiazole derivatives 4a-e exhibited excellent TP-inhibition at low micromolar concentration levels better than standard drug 7-deazaxanthine (7-DX). Among all these compounds, 4b was found to be the most potent with IC50 = 1.09 ± 0.004 μM. Anti-angiogenesis potential of representative compounds were also studied in a chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay. Here again, compound 4b was found to be the potent anti-angiogenesis compound in a CAM assay. Docking studies were also performed with Molecular Operating Environment (MOE) to further analyse the mode of inhibition of these compounds. Binding mode analysis of the most active inhibitors showed that these are well accommodated into the binding site of enzyme though stable hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions.

- Elemental sulfur as a sulfuration agent in the copper-catalyzed C-H bond thiolation of electron-deficient arenes
-
By utilizing elemental sulfur as the thiolation agent and oxidant, a copper-catalyzed direct C-H bond thiolation of electron-deficient arenes was demonstrated. Various electron-deficient arenes were proved to be suitable for this transformation. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that this reaction underwent a radical pathway, in which the trisulfur radical anion (S3-) might play a vital role. Meanwhile, KIE experiments suggested that C-H bond cleavage was not involved in the rate-determining step.

-
1,3,4-Oxadiazoles are important class of heterocyclic compounds, with diverse biological applications. In this study, the synthesis of three different 1,3,4-oxadiazoles bearing pentadecyl moiety is reported. All compounds were synthesized with significant (70–82%) yields, characterized by using different spectroanalytical techniques such as UV–vis., FT-IR, NMR (1H and 13C), and finally structures were confirmed unequivocally by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Quantum chemical studies by using GAUSSIAN software at DFT/B3LYP/6-31G (d, p) level of theory have been exercised to compare and validate the spectroscopic and X-ray results. Frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) analysis of all compounds was performed by utilizing optimized geometries and gave the idea about kinetic stability and reactivity. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) analysis indicated the regions for electrophilic as well as nucleophilic attack. Compounds were also screened to check their antibacterial and antifungal potential.

- Design, synthesis, biological evaluation, and 3D-QSAR analysis of podophyllotoxin–dioxazole combination as tubulin targeting anticancer agents
-
The advancement of cancer-fighting drugs has never been a simple linear process. Those drug design professionals begin to find inspiration from the nature after failing to find the ideal products by creative drug design and high-throughput screening. To obtain new molecules for inhibiting tubulin, podophyllotoxin was adopted as the leading compound and 1,3,4-oxadiazole was brought in to the C-4 site of podophyllotoxin in this research. A series of seventeen podophyllotoxin-derived esters have been achieved and then evaluated their antitumor activities against four different cancer cell lines: A549, MCF-7, HepG2, and HeLa. Among all the compounds, compound 7c showed the best antiproliferating properties with IC50?=?2.54?±?0.82?μm against MCF-7 cancer cell line. It was obvious that the content of ROS grew significantly in MCF-7 in a way depending on the dosage. The time- and dose-dependent cell cycle assays revealed that compound 7c could apparently block cell cycle in the phase of G2/M along with the upregulation of cyclin A2 and CDK2 protein. According to further studies, confocal microscopy experiment has certified that compound 7c could restrain cancer from growing by blocking the polymerization of microtubule. Meanwhile, compound 7c could be ideally integrated with the colchicine site of tubulin. In future, it would be feasible to selectively design tubulin inhibitors with the help of 3D-QSAR. This means that it is hopeful to develop compound 7c as a potential agent against cancer due to its biological characteristics.

Owing to valuable biological activities of 1,3,4-oxadiazole, sulfamoyl and piperidine functionalities, some new 1-(4-{[(5-substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) thio]methyl}benzene sulfonyl)-4-methylpiperidine (6a-o) derivatives have been introduced. The target molecules were synthesized from different aralkyl/aryl carboxylic acids, 1a-o, through a series of steps. First the compounds, 1a-o, were converted to heterocyclic 1,3,4-oxadiazole nucleophiles, 4a-o. Second an electrophile as 1-(4-bromomethylbenzenesulfonyl)-4-methylpiperidine (5) was synthesized from 4-methylpiperidine. Finally the target compounds, 6a-o, were prepared by reacting 4a-o with 5 in DMF and LiH. The final compounds were structurally elucidated by spectral data of IR, 1H-NMR and EI-MS. All the compounds were screened for their antibacterial evaluation and found to exhibit valuable results.

An electrophile, 1-(4-(bromomethylbenzenesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperidine, was synthesized by the reaction of 2-methylpiperidine (2-pipecoline) and 4-bromomethylbenzenesulfonyl chloride in a weak basic medium under pH control. A series of nucleophiles, 5-aryl/aralkyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-thiols, were synthesized from corresponding carboxylic acids in three steps. The title molecules were synthesized by coupling the electrophile to nucleophiles in an aprotic medium using LiH as an activator. The structures of all synthesized compounds were corroborated through IR, 1H NMR, and EI-MS techniques. All the compounds were screened for their pharmacological behavior, particularly, antibacterial and enzyme inhibitory activities. Notably efficient results were obtained against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains. Regarding enzyme inhibition, compounds were efficient against acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase.

- Synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation of N'-substituted-2-(5-(4-substitutedphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)acetohydrazide derivatives
-
Hydrazone derivatives bearing heterocyclic moiety have been synthesized to evaluate their antibacterial and enzyme inhibition activity. Two p-substituted carboxylic acids (1a and 1b) have been utilized to synthesize ethyl esters (2a and 2b), carbohydrazides (3a and 3b), 5- substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-thiols (4a and 4b), heterocyclic ethyl esters (5a and 5b) and finally acetohydrazides (6a and 6b). The final hydrazone derivatives, 8a-j and 9a-j, were synthesized by the reaction of 6a and 6b with different un/mono substituted benzaldehydes (7a-j) in methanol. The synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral data of IR, 1H-NMR and EIMS. The evaluation of these molecules for their antibacterial and lipoxygenase inhibition activities rendered 8g suitable antibacterial agent and lipoxygenase inhibitor and the remaining ones as moderate inhibitors.

- Development of 3,5-Dinitrobenzylsulfanyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and Thiadiazoles as Selective Antitubercular Agents Active Against Replicating and Nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis
-
Herein, we report the discovery and structure-activity relationships of 5-substituted-2-[(3,5-dinitrobenzyl)sulfanyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles as a new class of antituberculosis agents. The majority of these compounds exhibited outstanding in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis CNCTC My 331/88 and six multidrug-resistant clinically isolated strains of M. tuberculosis, with minimum inhibitory concentration values as low as 0.03 μM (0.011-0.026 μg/mL). The investigated compounds had a highly selective antimycobacterial effect because they showed no activity against the other bacteria or fungi tested in this study. Furthermore, the investigated compounds exhibited low in vitro toxicities in four proliferating mammalian cell lines and in isolated primary human hepatocytes. Several in vitro genotoxicity assays indicated that the selected compounds have no mutagenic activity. The oxadiazole and thiadiazole derivatives with the most favorable activity/toxicity profiles also showed potency comparable to that of rifampicin against the nonreplicating streptomycin-starved M. tuberculosis 18b-Lux strain, and therefore, these derivatives, are of particular interest.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel resveratrol-oxadiazole hybrid heterocycles as potential antiproliferative agents
-
A novel class of resveratrol-oxadiazole hybrid compounds was synthesized to screen for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against three human cancer cell lines. All the compounds showed superior antiproliferative activity than the reference compound resveratrol. The most promising active compounds in this series were 1g, 2g, 1c, 2c, 2i and 1a (GI50 0.1 μM), endowed with excellent antiproliferative activity. Thus, we believe that resveratrol-oxadiazole hybrid compounds may possibly be used as a good leads for the development of new antiproliferative agents. Structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by NMR and IR spectral data.

Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) inhibitors have attracted great attention due to their ability to suppress the tumors formation. In our ongoing research, a series of 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione (1-12) has been synthesized under simple reaction conditions in good to excellent yields (86-98%) and their TP inhibition potential has also been evaluated. The majority of synthesized compounds showed moderate thymidine phosphorylase inhibitory activity with IC50 values ranging from 38.24 ± 1.28 to 258.43 ± 0.43 μM, and 7-deazaxanthine (7DX) was used as a reference compound (IC50 38.68 ± 4.42). The TP activity was very much dependent on the C-5 substituents; among this series the compound 6 bearing 4-hydroxyphenyl group was found to be the most active with IC50 38.24 ± 1.28 μM. Molecular docking studies revealed their binding mode.

- Synthesis and evaluation of novel azoles as potent antifungal agents
-
Using a rational approach to the design of antifungal agents, a series of azole agents with 1,3,4-oxadiazole side chains were designed and synthesized. The results of preliminary in vitro antifungal tests with eight human pathogenic compounds showed that all of the title compounds exhibited excellent activities against all of the tested fungi except Aspergillus fumigatus. Compounds 11e and 11f were found to be the most effective, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.0039 μg/mL, followed by voriconazole, which has a MIC of 0.0625 μg/mL. The 1,3,4-oxadiazole side chain is not the major contributor but plays a role in eliciting the observed antifungal activity.

-
A series of 2-mercapto-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives have been condensed with different phenyl acetamide derivatives possessing fluorine atom at meta position; resulting in the formation of 2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2- ylthio)-N-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetamide (5a-j) and N-(4-chloro-3- fluorophenyl)-2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)acetamide (5k-t) derivatives. The antimicrobial properties of the synthesized entities (5a-t) measured as their MIC (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration) values were evaluated by using the broth dilution method against Gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus and E. faecalis), Gram-negative bacteria (E. coli and P. aeruginosa) and fungi (C. albicans and A. niger). The results of antimicrobial activities (in μg/ml) revealed the fact that the compounds 5a and g bearing a maximum number of fluorine atoms showed the highest potency among the synthesized compounds against the broad panel of bacterial and fungal strains. The presence of fluorine atom at the meta position in the phenyl ring of final derivatives (5a-t) brought about an enhancement of their antimicrobial properties to a notable extent.

-
A series of novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether derivatives (compounds 9-44) were designed and synthesized as potential inhibitors of thymidylate synthase (TS) and as anticancer agents. The in vitro anticancer activities of these compounds were evaluated against three cancer cell lines by the MTT method. Among all the designed compounds, compound 18 bearing a nitro substituent exhibited more potent in vitro anticancer activities with IC50 values of 0.7 ± 0.2, 30.0 ± 1.2, 18.3 ± 1.4 μM, respectively, which was superior to the positive control. In the further study, it was identified as the most potent inhibitor against two kinds of TS protein (for human TS and Escherichia coli TS, IC50 values: 0.62 and 0.47 μM, respectively) in the TS inhibition assay in vitro and the most potent antibacterial agents with MIC (minimum inhibitory concentrations) of 1.56-3.13 μg/mL against the tested four bacterial strains. Molecular docking and 3D-QSAR study supported that compound 18 can be selected as dual antitumor/antibacterial candidate in the future study.

A series of new sulfone compounds containing the 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety were designed and synthesized. Their structures were identified by 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance and elemental analyses. Antibacterial bioassays indicated that most compounds exhibited promising in vitro antibacterial bioactivities against tobacco bacterial wilt at 200 μg/mL. The relationship between structure and antibacterial activity was also discussed. Among the title compounds, 5′c, 5′h, 5′i, and 5′j could inhibit mycelia growth of Ralstonia solanacearum in vitro by approximately 50% (EC50) at 39.8, 60.3, 47.9, and 32.1 μg/mL, respectively. Among them, compound 5′j was identified as the most promising candidate due to its stronger effect than that of Kocide 3000 [Cu(OH)2] within the same concentration range. Field trials demonstrated that the control effect of compound 5′j against tobacco bacterial wilt was better than that of the commercial bactericide Saisentong. For the first time, the present work demonstrated that sulfone derivatives containing 1,3,4-oxadiazole can be used to develop potential bactericides for plants.

The acidity constants of a series of substituted 5-phenyl-2-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were determined by potentiometric and spectrophotometric methods in 80percent (vol.) ethanol-water at 25 deg C.The data obtained by the two methods are in good agreement.The pKa values correlate with the ?*XC6H4 constants of the substituted phenyl group (p = -0.985, r = 0.936), however, a better correlation of the pKa data with the Hammett substituent constants ?X (p = -0.983, r = 0.959) was obtained.These linear correlations exclude the possibility of the presence of the thiol tautomer 1 in eqiulibrium with the thioamide tautomer 2 and indicate that the ionization of the compounds takes place in the form of the thioamide tautomer 2.According to the results of the HMO calculations, the thioamide form 2 is more stable than the thiol tautomer 1.A satisfactory correlation between the observed pKa values and the difference between the ?-electronic energies (ΔE?) of the thioamide tautomer and of the common resonance-stabilized anion was obtained, thus supporting the assigned tautomeric structure 2 for the series under study.

- Synthesis of Substituted N-(2,4-Dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazolinyl)benzamides and N-(2-Thiono-4-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazolinyl)benzamides
-
Substuted N-(2,3-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazolinyl)benzamides (3a-g) and substituted N-(2-thiono-4-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazolinyl)benzamides (4a-g) were synthetized in one step from the reaction of methyl anthranilate with 2-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-ones (1a-g) and 2-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoline-5-thiones (2a-g), respectively, in m-cresol at 150-160 deg C.Alternative routes leading to the formation of 3a and 4a are also reported.
