Based on the N-(phenethyl)azole backbone of azole antifungals, we designed 1-[(2-benzyloxy)phenyl]-2-(azol-1-yl)ethanone derivatives 2 and 3, containing benzyloxyphenyl scaffold of croconazole. Also these compounds can be considered as flexible analogs, resulted from C2C3 disconnection of 3'-chloro-3-imidazolylflavanone 1, recently described as antifungal agent. Thus, in this report, we describe the synthesis of 1-[(2-benzyloxy)phenyl]-2-(azol-1-yl)ethanone derivatives 2 and 3 and their biological evaluation against different pathogenic fungi. By comparing the antifungal activity profile of flexible compounds 2 and 3 with that of rigid analog 1, it can be inferred that lower susceptibilities (higher minimum inhibitory concentrations) were observed with flexible compounds. However, among the synthesized compounds, 1-[2-(2,4-dichlorobenzyloxy)phenyl]-2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethanone hydrochloride (2g) showed comparable or more potent antifungal activity in comparison with fluconazole as a standard drug.

Design, synthesis and biological activity of hybrid antifungals derived from fluconazole and mebendazole

Elham Ghobadi, Seyedeh Mahdieh Hashemi, Hamed Fakhim, Zahra Hosseini-khah, Hamid Badali, Saeed Emami

Summary: A series of novel triazole alcohol antifungals incorporating a 5-benzoylbenzimidazol-2-ylthio side chain have been synthesized. SAR analysis revealed that compounds with the 5-benzoylbenzimidazole scaffold exhibited better antifungal activity compared to benzimidazole and benzothiazole derivatives. The most promising compounds demonstrated desirable ADMET properties and docking simulation study suggested that the benzimidazol-2-ylthio moiety played a crucial role in their potent antifungal activity.

Summary: Diabetes, a chronic metabolic disorder, is a global health concern. In this study, a series of piperazin-1-yl benzimidazole-2-carbamates derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their potential as α-glucosidase inhibitors. Among them, 7d-1 and 7f-2 showed the highest inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 118 and 155 μM, respectively. Kinetic studies revealed that 7d-1 is a competitive inhibitor of α-glucosidase. Molecular docking analysis provided insights into the binding interactions between these bioactive organic molecules and the amino acid residues at the active site of the enzyme.

Summary: In this study, the immobilization of Trametes versicolor laccase (TvLac) on NaY-zeolite was optimized using experimental design. The optimal conditions were found to be a NaY-zeolite concentration of 2.5 mg/mL, an enzyme concentration of 1 U/mg, a glutaraldehyde concentration of 1 mM, and a 4-hour immobilization time at 4°C. The immobilized TvLac showed higher stability and efficiency in the removal of dye-containing pollutants compared to the free enzyme. The kinetic parameters for the removal of bromothymol blue (BTB) were determined to be a Km of 0.07 μM and a Vmax of 1.38 μmol/min for the immobilized TvLac.

Summary: Angiogenesis is crucial for endothelial cell migration, growth, and differentiation, but dysregulated angiogenesis in tumor microenvironments contributes to tumor growth. VEGFR-2 inhibitors, especially quinazoline derivatives, have been approved for cancer treatment, but there are limitations in clinical efficacy and drug resistance. There is a need for the design and synthesis of more selective and effective inhibitors to overcome these challenges.
