Background: A novel series of 1,3,4‒oxadiazole connected to derivatives of quinazolinone (7a-e and 8a-f) was synthesized in the current investigation, and its anticancer and Topoisomerase‒ II inhibitory activity was evaluated.

Objective: These findings inspired the design, synthesis, and biological analysis of these 1,3,4‒oxadiazole-quinazolinone analogues as antiproliferative Topo‒II inhibitors.

Methods: The novel compound structures were determined using mass spectrometry and spectral methods (IR, NMR: H & C).

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers found that 1,2,3-triazole and tetrazole derivatives with pyrrolidines are effective in medicinal chemistry and could help in discovering new drugs.
  • A new group of compounds that include indazole and 1,2,3-triazolyltetrazoles showed strong antibacterial and antifungal activity, with some compounds performing similarly to the standard antifungal drug, Itraconazole.
  • The binding interactions of these compounds within a target protein in S. aureus and their promising molecular properties indicate that they could lead to the development of new antimicrobial agents through further modifications.

Background: Benzothiazine derivatives, because of their various biological activities have attracted particular attention in Med Chem and drug discovery efforts. The synthetic modifications of 1,2-benzothiazine 1,1-dioxides have been undertaken in order to explore and identify novel compounds or new analogues possessing promising biological activities. In our effort we have designed -oxicam derived bezothiazine-1,2,3-triazole derivatives as potential antibacterial agents.

A new library of pyrido-pyrrolidine hybrid compounds were designed, developed and screened for their antidiabetic property with α-glucosidase. The design is based on preliminary screening of key fragments identified from literature reported α-glucosidase inhibitors and antidiabetic compounds. The most active fragments were stitched to provide a pyrido-pyrrolidine hybrid molecule as a new motif.

Background: A library of compounds related to the new benzoxepine-oxime-1,2,3-triazole hybrid was created as probable antibacterial agents. Their synthesis involved a Cu-catalyzed azidealkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) as a key step to construct the desired 1,2,3-triazole ring. Thus the click reaction between the appropriate alkyne containing the benzoxepine-oxime framework with aryl azides afforded the target compounds in good yields.
