Ethyl 5-arylpyridopyrimidine-6-carboxylates 3a–d were prepared as a one pot three component reaction via the condensation of different aromatic aldehydes and ethyl acetoacetate with 6-amino-1-benzyluracil 1a under reflux condition in ethanol. Additionally, condensation of ethyl 2-(2-hydroxybenzylidene) acetoacetate with 6-amino-1-benzyluracil in DMF afforded 6-acetylpyridopyrimidine-7-one 3e; a facile, operationally, simple and efficient one-pot synthesis of 8-arylxanthines 6a–f is reported by refluxing 5,6-diaminouracil 4 with aromatic aldehydes in DMF. Moreover, 6-aryllumazines 7a–d was obtained via the reaction of 5,6-diaminouracil with the appropriate aromatic aldehydes in triethyl orthoformate under reflux condition. The synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR and mass spectra) and elemental analyses. The newly synthesized compounds were screened for their anticancer activity against lung cancer A549 cell line. Furthermore, a molecular-docking study was employed to determine the possible mode of action of the synthesized compounds against a group of proteins highly implicated in cancer progression, especially lung cancer. Docking results showed that compounds 3b, 6c, 6d, 6e, 7c and 7d were the best potential docked compounds against most of the tested proteins, especially CDK2, Jak2, and DHFR proteins. These results are in agreement with cytotoxicity results, which shed a light on the promising activity of these novel six heterocyclic derivatives for further investigation as potential chemotherapeutics.

In this work, a series of 2-(1H-benzo[d]thiazole-2-yl)-N-arylbenzamides is synthesized by using diethyl phthalate, anilines and 2-amino-benzenethiol by one-pot three component synthesis in glycerol medium. Phosphoric acid is used as an effective reagent for this one-pot three component reaction. This reaction got completed in a short time, easy workup and gave an excellent yield in glycerol medium. The N-arylbenzamides was found to have significant cytotoxic potentials against various cancer cells viz., A549 (lung cancer), HeLa (cervical cancer) and MCF-7 (breast cancer) using MTT assay. The molecular docking study is also employed to understand the binding mechanism of N-arylbenzamides against the antibacterial target. The docking result shows the binding energy of compound 4a is -8.6 kcal/mol. The binding affinity is a major concern and it shows that Asn and Thr residues have an interaction with compound 4a.

A series of estrone derivatives 3–8 was designed and synthesized using estrone arylmethylenes 2a,b as starting materials and their structures were confirmed by different spectral data and elemental analyses. All the newly synthesized compounds exhibited potent in vitro and in vivo cytotoxic activities against breast cancer cell lines. In addition, all compounds were subjected to in vitro and in vivo inhibition assays for EGFR and VEGFR-2 kinases as well as p53 ubiquitination activity to obtain more details about their mechanism of action. Based on the promising results, a molecular docking study was investigated for the most representative compound 5a against the two targets, EGFR and VEGFR-2 kinases, to assess its binding affinity, hoping to rationalize and obtain potent anticancer agents in the future.

Background:: Recently, researchers have been warning about the increased mortality of the various cancer types. Also, the lung adenocarcinoma and the glioma types are burning issues for the world's health due to late or wrong diagnosis and/or insufficient treatment methods. For this purpose, our research group designed and synthesized novel 4,5-dimethyl thiazole-hydrazone derivatives which were tested against cancer and normal cell lines to understand the structure-activity relationship (SAR). Method:: The lead compounds were obtained by reacting 2-(substituted aryl-2-ylmethylene)hydrazin-1-carbothioamide with 3-chloro-2-butanone derivatives. The structural elucidation of the compounds was performed by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and LC/MS-IT-TOF spectral and elemental analyses. The synthesized compounds were tested in vitro for the anticancer activity against A549 human lung adenocarcinoma and C6 rat glioma cells and investigated for which pathway to induce cell death. Also, the docking study of the active compounds was achieved to understand the SAR. Result and Discussion:: The targeted compounds (2a-2l) were synthesized successfully above 70% yields, and the analysis findings proved their purity. In general, the results of activity studies displayed significant effects against at least one cell line, except compounds 2e (indol-3-yl) and 2h (4-dimethylaminophenyl). Furthermore, compounds 2b and 2f displayed potential anticancer activity. With the help of molecular docking study, a potential selectivity of compound 2f was observed for type II protein kinase. On the other hand, compound 2b interacted with the active site nearly the same as Dasatinib. Therefore, these two compounds could be used as a base on developing selective anticancer drugs. Conclusion:: Pyridin-2-yl (2b) derivative was found to be a favorable molecule with high anticancer potency against C6 and A549 cell lines. Additionally, 1-naphthyl (2f) derivative was a worthy compound for potential selectivity. In future studies, it will be our priority to focus on developing derivatives of these two compounds (2b and 2f) and elucidate their mechanisms.

Objective: Benzoxazole derivatives have antifungal, anticancer, antibacterial, and anticonvulsant function. Encouraged by this comment, we agreed to synthesize new Benzoxazole compounds connected to the bases of Schiff's. Methods: 2,4-diaminophenol (1) was prepared by the reaction of 2,4-dinitrophenol and sodium dithionate. Compound (1) reacted with either acetic acid to afford compound (2) or with formic acid to afford compound (3). The Schiff bases were preparation from the reaction condensing reaction of compound (2) or (3) and aromatic aldehydes or ketone; [p-nitrobenzaldehyde, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, p-chlorobenzaldehyde, p-bromoacetophenone and terephthaldehyde]. Results: FTIR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy characterized all of the preparation compounds. The synthesized derivatives against (Gram positive bacteria GPB) (Bacillus subtilis) and two (Gram-negative bacteria GNB) (Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli) and (one fungal species Candida albicans), have been evaluated to their antibacterial activity in vitro. all results showed which most of them have good antibacterial activity, while their antifungal activity revealed that compounds displayed slight antifungal activity. The synthesized Benzoxazole derivatives were docked using, glucosamine 6-phosphate synthase as a ligand. Conclusion: The antimicrobial activity indicates that compounds (4), (7) and (8) have more potent antibacterial activity than the compounds (5) and (6). Molecular docking study revealed that compounds (7) and (8), with bulky phenyl groups are essential to block the active centers of (GluN-6-Ps) amino acids synthase in the bacteria.

Several methoxybenzo[h]quinoline-3-carbonitrile analogs were designed and synthesized in a repositioning approach to developing compounds with anti-prostate cancer and anti-Chagas disease properties. The compounds were synthesized through a sequential multicomponent reaction of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, and 1-tetralone in the presence of ammonium acetate and acetic acid (catalytic). The effect of the one-pot method on the generation of the target product has been studied. The compounds were in vitro screened against bloodstream trypomastigotes of T. cruzi (NINOA and INC-5 strains) and were most effective at showing a better activity profile than nifurtimox and benznidazole (reference drugs). A study in silico on absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADME/Tox) profiling to help describe the molecular properties related to the pharmacokinetic aspects in the human body of these compounds was reported. In addition, X-ray data for the compound 2-Amino-5,6-dihydro-4-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-phenyl)-8-methoxybenzo[h]quinoline-3-carbonitrile 6 was being reported. Spectral (IR, NMR, and elemental analyses) data on all final compounds were consistent with the proposed structures.
