We report the synthesis and biochemical evaluation of compounds that are designed as hybrids of the microtubule targeting benzophenone phenstatin and the aromatase inhibitor letrozole. A preliminary screening in estrogen receptor (ER)‐positive MCF‐7 breast cancer cells identified 5‐((2H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐1‐yl)(3,4,5‐trimethoxyphenyl)methyl)‐2‐methoxyphenol 24 as a potent antiproliferative compound with an IC50 value of 52 nM in MCF‐7 breast cancer cells (ER+/PR+) and 74 nM in triple‐negative MDA‐MB‐231 breast cancer cells. The compounds demonstrated significant G2/M phase cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis in the MCF‐7 cell line, inhibited tubulin polymerisation, and were selective for cancer cells when evaluated in non-tumorigenic MCF‐10A breast cells. The immunofluorescence staining of MCF‐7 cells confirmed that the compounds targeted tubulin and induced multinucleation, which is a recognised sign of mitotic catastrophe. Computational docking studies of compounds 19e, 21l, and 24 in the colchicine binding site of tubulin indicated potential binding conformations for the compounds. Compounds 19e and 21l were also shown to selectively inhibit aromatase. These compounds are promising candidates for development as antiproliferative, aromatase inhibitory, and microtubule‐disrupting agents for breast cancer.

Triazole and imidazole are incorporated into the structures of many antifungal compounds. In this study a novel series of 1,2,4-triazole, imidazole, benzoimidazole, and benzotriazole derivatives was designed as inhibitors of cytochrome P450 14α-demethylase (14DM). These structures were docked into the active site of MT-CYP51, using Autodock program. Sixteen compounds with the best binding energy were synthesized. The chemical structures of the new compounds were confirmed by elemental and spectral (1H-NMR and Mass) analyses. All compounds were investigated for antifungal activity against Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Candida glabrata, Candida parapeilosis, Candida kruzei, Candida dubliniensis, Aspergillus fomigatus, Aspergillus flavus, Microsporum canis, Microsporum gypseum, Trichophyton mentagrophyte, Epidermophyton floccosum. Some compounds showed excellent in-vitro antifungal activity against most of the tested fungi. Compounds 2, 9, and 10 had antifungal activity against several resistant fungi against fluconazole and itraconazole. A novel series of azole derivatives was designed and synthesized as inhibitors of cytochrome P450 14α-demethylase and the compounds were investigated for antifungal activity. Copyright
Novel heterocyclic analogs of trityl radicals: Synthesis and dimerization of diarylmethyl-1H-1,2,4-triazoles and diarylmethyl-2H- phenanthro[9,10-d]-1,2,3-triazoles

Diarylmethanes (1a-h, 9a-i and 12) containing a heterocyclic group attached to the central carbon atom have been synthesized. Lithiation of these substrates followed by the addition of iodine gave dimers (2a,b,d,e and 10) via α, para-dimerization of novel heterocyclic diarylmethyl radical intermediates.
