- Synthesis and biological evaluation of 2-phenylimino-5((5-phenylfuran-2-yl)methylene)thiazolidin-4-ones as IKK2 inhibitors
-
In a search for novel molecules to treat inflammatory disorders, we identified several compounds with inhibitory action against the IKK2 enzyme using in silico methods. Based on the virtual hit of compounds 1 and 2, a novel series of 2-phenylimino-5((5-phenylfuran-2-yl)methylene)thiazolidin-4-one derivatives was designed, synthesized, and evaluated for IKK2 inhibitory activity. Among the synthesized derivatives, compounds 17f and 19f showed good IKK2 inhibitory potency, which have 4-carboxaminophenyl on the 2-furan ring and a methoxy group on the phenylimino moiety at the 2-position of the core structure. The most potent compound was 2-(2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)imino-5((5(4-carboxaminophenyl)furan-2-yl)methylene)thiazolidin-4-one (19f, IC50 = 0.94 μM), which represents a synergic effect of the two virtual hit compounds against IKK2. We also identified compounds showing inhibitory activities against interleukin (IL)-17, CCK-8, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), which are NF-κB-dependent pro-inflammatory cytokine mediators.

- Structure-activity relationships of novel anti-malarial agents. Part 7: N-(3-benzoyl-4-tolylacetylaminophenyl)-3-(5-aryl-2-furyl)acrylic acid amides with polar moieties
-
In a previous report, we have provided evidence that novel anti-malarial compounds based on 2,5-diaminobenzophenone farnesyltransferase inhibitors might benefit from the presence of a polar moiety at the para position of the terminal phenyl of the arylfur
