- Barbiturate squaraine dyes as fluorescent probes for serum albumins detection
-
Three indolenine-based barbiturate squaraine dyes were synthesized, characterized and subjected to photophysical studies, including their affinity with human serum albumin and bovine serum albumin as protein models in phosphate buffer solution. All dyes successfully interact with both proteins with high affinity binding constants. It was found that dyes with hydrophobic substituents had superior binding constants with both proteins. The fluorescence intensity of all dyes increased in the presence of both proteins which allowed the determination of detection and quantifications limits in the tens of nanomolar, using a protein concentration of 0–3.5 μM. Concerning to the study on the binding sites of the synthesized dyes using the warfarin and ibuprofen markers, the results of this study suggest that, one dye binds to both BSA binding sites while the two others dyes binds only to site I, and that all three dyes bind to both HSA binding sites.

- Trisubstituted barbiturates and thiobarbiturates: Synthesis and biological evaluation as xanthine oxidase inhibitors, antioxidants, antibacterial and anti-proliferative agents
-
Barbituric and thiobarbituric acid derivatives have become progressively attractive to medicinal chemists due to their wide range of biological activities. Herein, different series of 1,3,5-trisubstituted barbiturates and thiobarbiturates were prepared in moderate to excellent yields and their activity as xanthine oxidase inhibitors, antioxidants, antibacterial agents and as anti-proliferative compounds was evaluated in vitro. Interesting bioactive barbiturates were found namely, 1,3-dimethyl-5-[1-(2-phenylhydrazinyl)ethylidene]pyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione (6c) and 1,3-dimethyl-5-[1-[2-(4-nitrophenyl)hydrazinyl]ethylidene]pyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione (6e), which showed concomitant xanthine oxidase inhibitory effect (IC50 values of 24.3 and 27.9 μM, respectively), and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity (IC50 values of 18.8 and 23.8 μM, respectively). In addition, 5-[1-(2-phenylhydrazinyl)ethylidene]pyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione (6d) also revealed DPPH radical scavenger effect, with an IC50 value of 20.4 μM. Moreover, relevant cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cells (IC50 = 13.3 μM) was observed with 5-[[(2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl)amino]methylene]-2-thioxodihydropyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H)-dione (7d). Finally, different 5-hydrazinylethylidenepyrimidines revealed antibacterial activity against Acinetobacter baumannii (MIC values between 12.5 and 25.0 μM) which paves the way for developing new treatments for infections caused by this Gram-negative coccobacillus bacterium, known to be an opportunistic pathogen in humans with high relevance in multidrug-resistant nosocomial infections. The most promising bioactive barbiturates were studied in silico with emphasis on compliance with the Lipinski's rule of five as well as several pharmacokinetics and toxicity parameters.

- A sulfur on behalf of the barbituric acid derivative for the probe molecule detecting secondary amine method and its preparation
-
The invention discloses a method for detecting secondary amine with thiobarbituric acid derivatives (TBAs) serving as ultraviolet-visible light (UV-vis) spectrophotometric method probe molecules and preparation of the thiobarbituric acid derivatives for detecting secondary amine. The probe molecules are prepared from primary amine through a preparation line of a system. The probe molecules are provided with a furan ring (or thiophene ring) for recognizing secondary amine, an independent probe molecule solution is yellow, and along with addition of secondary amine, the solution becomes red from yellow. A molecular probe is high in selectivity and sensitivity to secondary amine, the response range to secondary amine is 100 micrometers to 400 micrometers, and the limit of detection (LOD) is 12 micrometers. Test paper can be prepared from the probe molecules, and qualitative detection on secondary amine can be achieved fast with low cost. The method can be widely applied to fast and sensitive detection such as online detection of secondary amine compounds, food analysis and environmental monitoring in the industrial process.

- A synthetic route to novel 3-substituted-2,1-benzisoxazoles from 5-(2-nitrobenzylidene)(thio)barbiturates
-
2,1-Benzisoxazoles, also called anthranils, are one of the two types of aromatic bicyclic heterocycles having a benzene ring fused with an isoxazole, which are particularly recognized as valuable intermediates in organic synthesis. Nevertheless several methods can be found in the literature to prepare 2,1-benzisoxazoles, we herein report a new, efficient, simple, mild, and alternative procedure to prepare 3-substituted-2,1-benzisoxazoles from 5-(2-nitrobenzylidene)barbiturates in moderate to good yields (51–82%). All the novel benzisoxazoles showed spectral data fully consistent with the assigned structures, which were unequivocally confirmed by single crystal X-ray analysis. A possible mechanism of the reaction is proposed. In addition, a screening of the bioactivity of these benzisoxazoles as xanthine oxidase inhibitors, antioxidants, and cytotoxic compounds was performed. The benzisoxazole formed from barbituric acid revealed moderate xanthine oxidase inhibitory effects (IC50 = 22.10 μM).
