    Design and synthesis of some new quinoline-3-carbohydrazone derivatives as potential antimycobacterial agents
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2010) Eswaran, S.; Vasudeva Adhikari, A.V.; Pal, N.K.; Chowdhury, I.H.
    A series of 26 new quinoline derivatives carrying active pharmacophores has been synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antituberculosis activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB), Mycobacterium smegmatis (MC2), and Mycobacterium fortuitum following the broth micro dilution assay method. Compounds 13e, 13i, 13k, 14a, 14c, 14i, and 14k exhibited significant minimum inhibition concentrations, when compared with first line drugs isoniazid (INH) and rifampicin (RIF) and could be ideally suited for further modifications to obtain more efficacious compounds in the fight against multi-drug resistant tuberculosis. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

    Design, synthesis and antimicrobial activities of some new quinoline derivatives carrying 1,2,3-triazole moiety
    (2010) Thomas, K.D.; Vasudeva Adhikari, A.V.; Shetty, N.S.
    A new series of [1-(6-methoxy-2-methylquinolin-4-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl] methanamine derivatives were synthesized starting from 4-methoxyaniline through multi-step reactions. The title compounds 5a-y were prepared by treating the azide intermediate 4 with propargyl bromide and different alkyl/heterocyclic amines in a sequential three component synthesis. All the new compounds were characterized by spectral and elemental analyses. The newly synthesized final compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities against pathogenic strains. The preliminary screening results indicated that most of the compounds demonstrated moderate to very good antibacterial and antifungal activities, comparable to the first-line drugs. Twenty five new derivatives of [1-(6-methoxy-2-methylquinolin-4-yl)-1H-1,2,3- triazol-4-yl] methanamine have been synthesized and the most effective compounds have MIC of 6.25 ?g/mL, which are in comparable with present antibiotics. © 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS.

    Design, synthesis and docking studies of quinoline-oxazolidinone hybrid molecules and their antitubercular properties
    (2011) Thomas, K.D.; Vasudeva Adhikari, A.V.; Chowdhury, I.H.; Sandeep, T.; Mahmood, R.; Bhattacharya, B.; Sumesh, E.
    New series of quinoline-oxazolidinone hybrid molecules were synthesized based on the preliminary docking studies. All the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral analyses. The newly synthesized compounds were screened for their antimycobacterial properties based on the promising preliminary antibacterial screening results. Amongst tested compounds, compounds 8a, 8j and 13a were active at 0.65 ?g/mL against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H 37Rv strain. The mode of action of these active compounds was carried out by docking of receptor enoyl-ACP reductase with newly synthesized candidate ligands 8a, 8j and 13a. These compounds exhibited well established bonds with one or more amino acids in the receptor active pocket. From the docking studies, compound 8j was considered to be the best inhibitor. © 2011 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.

    Design, synthesis and docking studies of new quinoline-3-carbohydrazide derivatives as antitubercular agents
    (2011) Thomas, K.D.; Vasudeva Adhikari, A.V.; Telkar, S.; Chowdhury, I.H.; Mahmood, R.; Pal, N.K.; Guru Row, T.N.G.; Sumesh, E.
    Three new series of 4-hydroxy-8-trifluoromethyl-quinoline derivatives were synthesized through multi step reactions. All the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral and elemental analyses. The structure of 5j was evidenced by X-ray crystallographic study. The newly synthesized title compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial activities including antimycobacterial activity. Amongst the tested compounds, 5b, 5e, 5h, 5j, 6c and 7c displayed promising antimicrobial activity. The mode of action of these active compounds was carried out by docking of receptor enoyl-ACP reductase with newly synthesized candidate ligands, 5b, 5e, 5h, 5j and 6c. © 2011 Elsevier Masson SAS.

    Synthesis, anticonvulsant and anti-inflammatory studies of new 1,4-dihydropyridin-4-yl-phenoxyacetohydrazones
    (Elsevier Masson SAS infos@masson.fr 62 rue Camille Desmoulins Issy les Moulineaux Cedex 92442, 2013) Ulloora, S.; Shabaraya, R.; Ranganathan, R.; Vasudeva Adhikari, A.V.
    The present work involves design and synthesis of new substituted 1,4-dihydropyridin-4-yl-phenoxyacetohydrazones (4a-s, 5a-h), starting from 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde. The final compounds were screened for their in vivo anticonvulsant activity by MES, scPTZ and 6 Hz methods, while their anti-inflammatory screening was performed by Carrageenan induced Paw Edema method. The results indicated that compounds carrying electron donating groups are anticonvulsant active, while most of the tested compounds exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activity. Compounds 4k, l, 4p-s, and 5c showed rapid anti-inflammatory activity within 30 min and appeared as lead compounds. Further, Neurotoxicity study revealed that all the tested compounds are non-toxic up to 300 mg/kg doses. Selected compounds were also subjected to analgesic screening following Tail immersion method and they exhibited good activity. © 2013 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
