Three groups of novel analogs of combretastatin-A4 (CA-4), viz., the N1-phenyl-pyrazoline (5a–e), N1-alkyl acetylated pyrazoline (6a–c), and N1-phenyl acetylated pyrazoline (7a–g) were designed, and synthesized in good yield. The structure of the compounds was confirmed by spectroscopic techniques. All the compounds were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer (MCF-7 cell line), antioxidant (DPPH, NO, SOR, and H2O2), and anti-inflammatory activity. Compounds 5d, 7g, 7f, 7e, 7c, 5b, 6a, 7b, and 7a showed excellent potency with GI50 ranging from 0.1 to 10.9 µM against the MCF-7 cell line. Compounds 7f, 7g, 5c, 5d, 5b, 7e, and 6a exhibited good anti-inflammatory activity. Encouraged by these results, all the compounds were also tested for their antioxidant potency. Compounds 6a, 6c, 7b, 7c, 7f, and 7g were found to be excellent scavengers of all four free radicals (DPPH, NO, SOR, and H2O2).

The topological indices provide quantitative structural characteristics of drug molecules that can be utilized to predict or establish correlations with the biological activity, physicochemical properties, and toxicity of the molecules. Such studies play a crucial role in the initial stages of drug development by aiding in the identification and optimization of potential drug candidates and providing cost-effective techniques for experimental studies. Cancer, a multifaceted disease, can originate in any part of the body due to various factors, including genetic mutations, environmental toxins, and lifestyle choices. Blood cancer, encompassing malignancies affecting the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic systems, is the focus of this research paper. The current study investigates a comprehensive set of drugs employed in blood cancer treatment, including clofarabine, mercaptopurine, olutasidenib, glasdegib, gliteritinib, zanubrutinib, chlorambucil, ibrutinib, bosutinib, hydroxyurea, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, daunorubicin, ivosidenib, prednisone, busulfan, omacetaxine mepesuccinate, and asciminib. By conducting a thorough analysis of these drugs, we acquire valuable insights into their molecular properties, which are crucial for predicting their behavior and efficacy in blood cancer treatment. We have devised QSPR models by leveraging the reverse degree and entropy topological indices. Our proposed QSPR models are compared with existing degree-based models, emphasizing the superior effectiveness of our approach.

Rate of horizontal movement of a pollutant such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in soil plays a major role in spread of pollutants in the segments of the environment. However, the study regarding this aspect is not widely reported. In the present work, the rate of horizontal spread of Fluorene in soil is determined in an experiment spread over a year under natural environment. Known amount of the hydrocarbon was added to a soil at a particular point, extraction of the same was done later on at definite time interval at definite distances from the point of application and quantitative determination was done by HPLC analysis of the extract. Eleven number of important physico-chemical parameters of the soil sample were determined/calculated in order to know the quality of the soil. The values of parameters are in agreement to the characteristics of a good soil. The experimental soil is a mild acidic sandy loam. It has been found that one-year time is sufficient for the applied quantity of the hydrocarbon to spread itself uniformly to attain a concentration, which is at par with natural concentration of the hydrocarbon in the experimental soil. Studies on kinetics of the reaction imply that the reaction occurs in different phases, rate constants being gradually increased with time. The positive influence of increase in ambient temperature and rainfall on disappearance of the hydrocarbon is seen in the experiment. It has been found that the most probable speed of the hydrocarbon for horizontal movement is 3.75 cm per month in the experimental soil.

Vilsmeier–Haack formylation of 3-aminothiazolotriazolopyridine-7,9-dicarbonitrile 3 afforded the corresponding aldehyde derivative 4 in a 65% yield. Some Schiff bases 5-7 were efficiently synthesized by reacting substrate 4 with some primary amines. Reaction of substrate 4 with some active methylene nitriles produced 2-amino-3-substituted-pyridotriazolothiazolopyridines 8–12. Substrate 4 was utilized as a key intermediate for a diversity of pyridotriazolothiazolopyrazolopyridines 13–15, through the Friedlander reaction with pyrazolidine-3,5-dione, 5-amino-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one, and 5-phenyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one. Further, the reaction of substrate 4 with 5-amino-3-methyl-1H-pyrazole and 6-aminouracil, as cyclic enamines, produced pyridotriazolothiazolopyrazolopyridine 16 and pyridotriazolothiazolopyridopyrimidine 17, respectively. The antimicrobial efficiency was assessed for the synthesized products, and some of them showed notable activity. The structures of the synthesized products were confirmed using analytical and spectroscopic data.

The 2,4,6-trifluoro-5-chloro pyrimidine (TF5CP) was chosen for extensive investigation of its theoretical and experimental vibrational assignments, structural benchmarks, and spectroscopic (FT-IR, FT-Raman, UV–Vis, and NMR) investigations by Hartree–Fock (HF) functional with 6-311 + G(2d,p) basis set. The spectrum of detailed vibrational interpretation was to be provided by the MOLVIB software. Bonding orbitals participate in all stages of natural bond orbitals (NBO) analysis as donors and acceptors, which stabilizes molecules through intermolecular charge transfer. Molecular docking research was used to foresee the binding interactions of the TF5CP derivative with the receptor 3WZD. Auto-dock software was used to a conduct receptor–ligand docking investigation. According to the molecular docking results, the highest mean negative binding affinity (–5.639 kcal/mol) was exhibited by the current chemical. Based on the five-point rule of Lipinski, drug similarity was determined, and the ADMET variables were also predicted.

Ziziphus jujuba plant belongs to Rhamnaceous family and grows mainly in Europe, southern and eastern Asia, and Australia. Recent phytochemical investigation of plants provided some information on their biological effects, such as the hepatoprotective, immunostimulating, anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer properties. The current study investigated 34 phytocompounds from Z. jujuba and three anti-cancer drugs against three lung cancer target proteins. Drug likeliness screening revealed that two compounds dodecanoic acid and 7,9-di-tert-butyl-1-oxaspiro[4,5]deca-6,9-diene-2,8-dione possess zero violation, and compound azelaic acid possesses single violation against five drug rules. Molecular docking study reveals that 34 phytocompounds from Z. jujuba and three anti-cancer drugs showed docking score values in the range of −3.9 to −10.2 kcal/mol and −7.2 to −9.0 kcal/mol against three significant lung cancer target proteins. Furthermore, in silico screening top scored three phytocompounds campesterol, stigmast-5-en-3-ol, 7,9-di-tert-butyl-1-oxaspiro[4,5]deca-6,9-diene-2,8-dione and three anti-cancer drugs etoposide, paclitaxel, and doxorubicin utilized. Pharmacokinetic profile of three phytocompounds from Z. jujuba showed excellent absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity profile than standard drugs. Furthermore, bioactivity and density functional theory analysis showed that phytocompounds from Z. jujuba possess better bioactivity scores and molecular electrostatic potentials than standard drugs. Molecular dynamics simulation results revealed that campesterol with CDK2 (PDB ID 1GII) and MDM2/P53 (4HFZ) target proteins possess better simulation trajectories and binding affinity than standard drugs. Further clinical trials of compounds (campesterol, stigmast-5-en-3-ol, 7,9-di-tert-butyl-1-oxaspiro[4,5]deca-6,9-diene-2,8-dione) are needed to check clinical pertinence toward lung cancer target proteins to commercialize these novel drug molecule in the drug industry.

Pharmacokinetic profile of three phytocompounds from <em>Z. jujuba</em> showed excellent absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity profile than standard drugs. Furthermore, bioactivity and density functional theory analysis showed that phytocompounds from <em>Z. jujuba</em> possess better bioactivity scores and molecular electrostatic potentials than standard drugs. Molecular dynamics simulation results revealed that campesterol with CDK2 (PDB ID 1GII) and MDM2/P53 (4HFZ) target proteins possess better simulation trajectories and binding affinity than standard drugs. Further clinical trials of compounds (campesterol, stigmast-5-en-3-ol, 7,9-di-tert-butyl-1-oxaspiro[4,5]deca-6,9-diene-2,8-dione) are needed to check clinical pertinence toward lung cancer target proteins to commercialize these novel drug molecule in the drug industry.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20303,"journal":{"name":"Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds","volume":"44 9","pages":"Pages 6076-6098"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135270823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing NMR (1H-NMR and 13C-NMR), FT-IR, UV-Visible, and quantum chemical approaches by using the DFT technique, experiments on 2-phenylthioanline were carried out. The B3LYP method and the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set were used to optimize the molecular structure and vibrational modes. The ideal binding parameters match up well with the experimental binding parameters. VEDA successfully finished the assignments concerning the distribution of potential energy. The GIAO method was used to calculate shifts in the 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR, and the outcomes were compared to experimental spectra. The TDDFT approach and the CPCM solvent model were used to examine electronic properties such as UV-Vis (in the gas phase, methanol, Acetone, and DCM), and the results were compared to experimental UV-Vis spectra. The HOMO/LUMO energy values provide sufficient proof of such. Molecular docking and dynamic simulations were carried out with a 2HI4 protein target and gave the best result among the three proteins.
