Recent studies have shown that combining kinase inhibitors has additive and synergistic effects. BRAFV600E and p38α have been extensively studied as potential therapeutic targets for a variety of diseases. In keeping with our interest in developing multi-targeted anticancer agents, a series of novel triaryl-imidazole-based analogues containing 3-aryl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles moiety (4a-h, Scaffold B) and their reaction intermediates aryl carboximidamides moiety (3a-h, Scaffold A) have been rationally designed, synthesized, and evaluated in vitro for their antiproliferative activity as dual p38α/BRAFV600E inhibitors. The results revealed that the presence of the carboximidamide moiety is required for activity, and the best activity correlates with the Ar = 1,2-benzodioxole (3e) ≥ 4-CH3O-C6H5-(3c) > 2-naphthyl (3h) > 4-Cl-C6H5 (3b). Ring closure of carboximidamide to 1,2,4-oxadiazole significantly reduces the activity. The results of docking study into p38α revealed higher binding affinities for compounds 3c, 3e, and 3h compared to the co-crystallized ligand, SB2. However, the docking study of compounds 3c and 3e into BRAFV600E revealed slightly lower affinities than vemurafenib.

Two new series of conjugated arylethenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles were obtained and spectroscopically characterized in terms of UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence and interaction with CT-DNA and Human Serum Albumin (HSA) biomolecules. Phenyl- and 1-naphthyl-bearing examples were analysed, and the spectroscopic properties of its substitution series were compared, showing extensive conjugation in all compounds and absorption differences due to both the aryl-ethenyl subunit and substituted phenyl/phenylene at the 1,2,4-oxadiazole side. Strong binding interactions of the obtained compounds with CT-DNA and moderate HSA-association capability were observed spectroscopically, and further docking studies were performed. This journal is
