A green and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of 2-mercaptobenzazole derivatives via the reaction of commercially available aniline derivatives with low-cost and nontoxic potassium thiocyanate in water. The reactions proceeded smoothly under catalyst- and ligand-free conditions to give the corresponding products in good to excellent yields. The versatility, low cost, and environmental friendliness, in combination with high yields and easy work-up makes the procedure noteworthy.

The number of deaths or critical health issues is a threat in the infection caused by Dengue virus, which complicates the situation, as only symptomatic treatment is the current solution. In this regard we have targeted the dengue protease NS2B-NS3 that is responsible for the replication. The series was designed with the help of molecular modeling approach using docking protocols. The series comprised of different scaffolds viz. cinnamic acid analogs (CA1–CA11), chalcone (C1–C10) and their molecular hybrids (Lik1–Lik10), analogs of benzimidazole (BZ1-BZ5), mercaptobenzimidazole (BS1-BS4), and phenylsulfanylmethylbenzimidazole (PS1-PS4). Virtual screening of various natural phytoconstituents was employed to determine the interactions of designed analogs with the residues of catalytic triad in the active site of NS2B-NS3. We have further synthesized the selected leads. The synthesized analogs were evaluated for the cytotoxicity and NS2B-NS3 protease inhibition activity and compared with known anti-dengue natural phytoconstituent quercetin as the standard. CA2, BZ1, and BS2 were found to be more potent and efficacious than the standard quercetin as evident from the protease inhibition assay.

New series of benzimidazole ring core conjugated with either dithiocarbamate or thiopropyl linkers, hybridized with different secondary amines were synthesized; 5–15 and 22–31; respectively. The new compounds were characterized by different spectroscopic techniques (1H, 13C 1D & 2D NMR, ESI-MS and IR). They were screened for in vitro anticancer activity against breast cancer using MCF7 cell line. The results obtained revealed that compounds 5, 12, 15 and 25 were the most active among the synthesized series exhibiting IC50 15N-labeled Pin1 enzyme was conducted using state-of-the-art 2D NMR binding experiments. Results showed promising binding between compounds 5, 12, and 25 by chemical shift perturbation (peak shifting or peak disappearance). Molecular docking study were quite valuable to explain the binding mode of active derivatives via hydrogen bonding. Additional contact preferences and surface mapping studies stated the similarity pattern between active candidates which may pave the way for more precise anti breast cancer target optimization.
