In Vitro and In Vivo Antiviral Studies of New Heteroannulated 1,2,3-Triazole Glycosides Targeting the Neuraminidase of Influenza A Viruses.

There is an urgent need to develop and synthesize new anti-influenza drugs with activity against different strains, resistance to mutations, and suitability for various populations. Herein, we tested in vitro and in vivo the antiviral activity of new 1,2,3-triazole glycosides incorporating benzimidazole, benzooxazole, or benzotriazole cores synthesized by using a click approach. The Cu-catalyzation strategy consisted of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the azidoalkyl derivative of the respective heterocyclic and different glycosyl acetylenes with five or six carbon sugar moieties.

Synthesis, anticancer activity and molecular docking of new triazolo[4,5-]pyrimidines based thienopyrimidine system and their derived -glycosides and thioglycosides.

A series of new substituted triazolo[4,5-]pyrimidine derivatives linked to thienopyrimidine ring system were prepared as a hybrid heterocyclic systems, as possible nucleobases analogs, starting from the key carboxamide derivative and its azide precursor via heterocyclization reactions and their structures were characterized. Glycosylation of the prepared triazolopyrimidine derivatives was performed and afforded, regioselctively, the corresponding thienopyrimidine-triazolopyrimidine hybrid -glycosides and their thioglycoside analogues in good yields. The synthesized glycosyl heterocycles were studied for their cytotoxic activity against HepG-2 and MCF-7 human cancer cells and significant results were obtained.

Synthesis and anti-H5N1 virus activity of triazole- and oxadiazole-pyrimidine hybrids and their nucleoside analogs.

New 1,2,3-triazole glycosides and 1,2,4-thioglycosides incorporating a substituted pyrimidinedione ring system were synthesized via click dipolar cycloaddition and heterocyclization of hydrazine-1-carbodithioate derivatives, respectively. The sugar hydrazine derivatives linked aminodimethyluracil were also prepared. In addition, the oxadiazoline substituted with acyclic sugar moieties linked to the pyrimidinedione as acyclic nucleoside analogs were synthesized.
