Item Synthesis and biological evaluation of new imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole-benzimidazole derivatives(Elsevier Masson SAS infos@masson.fr 62 rue Camille Desmoulins Issy les Moulineaux Cedex 92442, 2015) Ramprasad, J.; Nayak, N.; Udayakumar, U.; Yogeeswari, P.; Sriram, D.; Peethambar, S.K.; Achur, R.; Santosh Kumar, H.S.S.In this report, we describe the synthesis and biological evaluation of a new series of 2-(imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-5-yl)-1H-benzimidazole derivatives (5a-ac). The molecules were analyzed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectral and elemental data. The structure of one of the pre-final compounds, 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(4-methylphenyl)imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole-5-carbaldehyde (4d) and that of a target compound, 2-[2-methyl-6-(4-methyl phenyl) imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-5-yl]-1H-benzimidazole (5aa) were confirmed by single crystal XRD studies. All the target compounds were screened for in vitro anti-tuberculosis activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain. Seven (5c, 5d, 5l, 5p, 5r, 5z and 5aa) out of twenty nine compounds showed potent anti-tubercular activity with a MIC of 3.125 ?g/mL. A p-substituted phenyl group (p-tolyl or p-chlorophenyl) in the imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole ring and/or a chloro group in the benzimidazole ring enhance anti-tuberculosis activity whereas a nitro group in the benzimidazole ring reduces the activity. In the antibacterial screening, compounds 5i, 5w and 5ac showed promising activity against the tested bacterial strains. Further, antifungal and antioxidant activities of these molecules were also investigated. In the cytotoxicity study, the active antitubercular compounds exhibited very low toxicity against a normal cell line. © 2015 Elsevier Masson SAS.Item One-pot synthesis of new triazole - Imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole hybrids via click chemistry and evaluation of their antitubercular activity(Elsevier Ltd, 2015) Ramprasad, J.; Nayak, N.; Udayakumar, U.; Yogeeswari, P.; Sriram, D.A new series of triazole-imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole hybrids (6a-s, 7a) were designed by a molecular hybridisation approach and the target molecules were synthesized via one pot click chemistry protocol. All the intermediates and final molecules were characterised using spectral methods and one of the target compounds (6c) was analysed by the single crystal XRD study. The derivatives were screened for their antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain. Two compounds, 6f and 6n, demonstrated significant growth inhibitory activity against the bacterial strain with a MIC of 3.125 ?g/mL. The presence of chloro substituent on the imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole ring and ethyl, benzyl or cyanomethylene groups on the 1,2,3-triazole ring enhance the inhibition activity of the molecules. The active compounds are not toxic to a normal cell line which signifies the lack of general cellular toxicity of these compounds. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.Item New INH-pyrazole analogs: Design, synthesis and evaluation of antitubercular and antibacterial activity(Elsevier Ltd, 2015) Nayak, N.; Ramprasad, J.; Udayakumar, U.With the aim of developing promising antitubercular and antibacterial leads, we have designed and synthesized a new series of isonicotinohydrazide based pyrazole derivatives (5a-r). All new derivatives (4a-b and 5a-r) were screened for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB) strain. Four compounds 5j, 5k, 5l and 4b emerged as promising antitubercular agents with MIC of ?4.9 ?M which is much lower than the MIC of the first line antitubercular drug, ethambutol. The 3-chlorophenyl substituent at position-3 of the pyrazole ring enhanced the antiTB activity of the molecules. Three derivatives 5b, 5k and 4b exhibited promising antibacterial activity against the tested bacterial strains. The active molecules were nontoxic to normal Vero cells and showed high selectivity index (>160). The structure and antitubercular activity relationship was further supported by in silico molecular docking study of the active compounds against enoyl acyl carrier protein reductase (InhA) enzyme of M. tuberculosis. © 2015 Published by Elsevier Ltd.Item Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of New 8-Trifluoromethylquinoline Containing Pyrazole-3-carboxamide Derivatives(HeteroCorporation, 2017) Nayak, N.; Ramprasad, J.; Udayakumar, U.The article describes the design, synthesis, and characterization of a new series of 8-trifluoromethylquinoline substituted pyrazole-3-carboxamides (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e, 9f, 9g, 9h, 9i, 9j, 9k, 9l, 9m, 9n, 9o, 9p, 9q, 9r, 9s, 9t) derived from different primary and secondary amines. The intermediate and target compounds were characterized using spectroscopic methods. The structures of intermediate 7 and target molecule 9d were evidenced by the single crystal X-ray study. All the synthesized target compounds (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e, 9f, 9g, 9h, 9i, 9j, 9k, 9l, 9m, 9n, 9o, 9p, 9q, 9r, 9s, 9t) and three intermediates (6, 7, 8) were screened for their in vitro antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain. Two compounds, 9k and 9t, showed significant inhibition activity with MIC of 3.13 µg/mL, which is comparable with the activity of standard drug, ethambutol. The carboxamides derived from benzylamine derivatives were more active than their aniline analogs. In general, the hybrid amides with a N-methylene linkage (-CONHCH2-) exhibited enhanced antitubercular activity. In the antibacterial screening, intermediate 3-hydrazinyl-2-methyl-8-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline (6) displayed remarkable activity against the tested bacterial strains. Further, the active anti-TB derivatives were non-toxic to benign NIH 3T3 cells, which demonstrate the lack of general cellular toxicity and hence signifies their suitability for further lead development. © 2015 HeteroCorporation
