Preliminary Investigations on Acyl Hydrazones Bearing Sulfonamides as Inhibitors of the Human Carbonic Anhydrase Isoforms I, II, IX, and XII.

Aim: The present study aims to identify the synthesis and structural characterization of acyl hydrazone- sulfonamide-containing compounds that were tested in vitro on human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) isoforms I, II, IX, and XII.

Methods: Herein, acyl hydrazone derivatives containing the primary sulfonamide moiety were synthesized via a three-step synthetic pathway starting from the commercially available 4-sulfamoyl benzoic acid. Structural characterizations of the final compounds were assessed through IR IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and elemental analyses.

The impact of triadimenol on male fertility: An in vitro study and molecular docking examination.

Triadimenol, a triazole fungicide, induces various adverse effects including neurotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and developmental/reproductive toxicity in non-target organisms. Occupational exposure generally occurs in male agricultural workers. Investigating the effects of triadimenol on three different testicular cell lines would be valuable in elucidating the mechanisms underlying male reproductive issues or infertility.

Design, synthesis, and evaluation of novel bistrifluoromethyl-based hydrazones as dual inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase and carbonic anhydrase enzymes for Alzheimer's disease.

In this project, non-sulfonamide bistrifluoromethyl-derived hydrazide-hydrazones were synthesized as multi-target-directed ligands to treat Alzheimer's disease and then, the novel derivatives were characterized by diverse spectral methods. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) inhibitory qualifications of these compounds were determined. The reported compounds (2a-y) were determined to be effective inhibitors of the hCA I, hCA II and AChE enzymes with Ki values in the range of 1.

Antioxidant activity of novel imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole derivatives: Design, synthesis, biological evaluation, molecular docking study and in silico ADME prediction.

A series of novel oxo-hydrazone and spirocondensed-thiazolidine derivatives of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole were synthesized and evaluated for their antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity of 18 newly synthesized compounds and 12 previously reported compounds bearing similar scaffold, were evaluated by three different methods: inhibition of FeCl/ascorbate system-induced lipid peroxidation of lecithin liposome (anti-LPO), scavenging activity against ABTS radical and Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) activity. 4h, 5h, and 6h displayed the highest anti-LPO and ABTS radical removal activity.

Design and synthesis of novel Imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole derivatives as potent antiviral and antimycobacterial agents.

A series of novel acyl-hydrazone (4a-d) and spirothiazolidinone (5a-d, 6a-d) derivatives of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole were synthesized and evaluated for their antiviral and antimycobacterial activity. The antituberculosis activity was evaluated by using the Microplate Alamar Blue Assay and the antiviral activity was evaluated against diverse viruses in mammalian cell cultures. According to the biological activity studies of the compounds, 5a-c displayed hope promising antitubercular activity, 6d was found as potent for Coxsackie B4 virus, 5d was found as effective against Feline corona and Feline herpes viruses.
