Synthesis of tetra-substituted thiophene derivatives as potential Hits combating antibiotic resistant bacteria ESKAPE.

The escalating prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has led to a serious global public health problem; therefore, there is an urgent need for the development of structurally innovative antibacterial agents. In our study, different series of tetra-substituted thiophene derivatives were designed and synthesized by multi-component reactions (MCRs) in moderate to excellent yields. Some of the designed final compounds were synthesized by both microwave assisted method and traditional synthesis.

Design, synthesis and cytotoxic evaluation of new thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine analogues as VEGFR-2/AKT dual inhibitors, apoptosis and autophagy inducers.

Novel thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine analogues were designed, synthesized and evaluated for anti-proliferative activity against HepG-2, PC-3 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines. In addition, WI-38 normal cell line was used to explore the safety of all the tested compounds. Compounds 2 (IC = 4.

Novel guanidine derivatives targeting leukemia as selective Src/Abl dual inhibitors: Design, synthesis and anti-proliferative activity.

A new series of benzene-sulfonamide derivatives 3a-i was designed and synthesized via the reaction of N-(pyrimidin-2-yl)cyanamides 1a-i with sulfamethazine sodium salt 2 as dual Src/Abl inhibitors. Spectral data IR, H-, C- NMR and elemental analyses were used to confirm the structures of all the newly synthesized compounds 3a-i and 4a-i. Crucially, we screened all the synthesized compounds 3a-i against NCI 60 cancer cell lines.

Quinazoline-chalcone hybrids as HDAC/EGFR dual inhibitors: Design, synthesis, mechanistic, and in-silico studies of potential anticancer activity against multiple myeloma.

Two new series of quinazoline-chalcone hybrids were designed, synthesized as histone deacetylase (HDAC)/epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) dual inhibitors, and screened in vitro against the NCI 60 human cancer cell line panel. The most potent derivative, compound 5e bearing a 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl chalcone moiety, showed the most effective growth inhibition value against the panel of NCI 60 human cancer cell lines. Thus, it was selected for further investigation for NCI 5 log doses.
