Substituted spiro [2.3'] oxindolespiro [3.2″]-5,6-dimethoxy-indane-1″-one-pyrrolidine analogue as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase.

Series of pyrolidine analogues were synthesized and examined as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors. Among the compounds, compounds 4k and 6k were the most potent inhibitors of the series. Compound 4k, showed potent inhibitory activity against acetyl cholinesterase enzyme with IC(50) 0.10 μmol/L. Pyrolidine analogues might be potential acetyl cholinesterase agents for AD.

Synthesis and antimycobacterial evaluation of novel 5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxo-2,5-dihydro-1H-2-indenyl-5,4-substituted phenyl methanone analogues.

In present investigation, a series of substituted phenyl-5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxo-2,5-dihydro-1H-2-indenylmethanone analogues were synthesized and were evaluated for antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Rv and INH resistant M. tuberculosis. All the newly synthesized compounds were showing moderate to high inhibitory activities. The compound 5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxo-2,5-dihydro-1H-2-indenyl-4-fluorophenylmethanone (5g) was found to be the most promising compounds active against M. tuberculosis H(37)Rv and isoniazid (INH) resistant M. tuberculosis with Minimum inhibitory concentration 0.10 and 0.10 microM.

Design, synthesis and evaluation of novel 5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-2-indenyl-3,4-substituted phenyl methanone analogues.

In present investigation, a series of substituted phenyl-5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-2-indenylmethanone analogues were synthesized and were tested for their potential for treating AD disease. All the newly synthesized compounds were showing moderate to high AChE inhibitory activities, with compound 5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-2-indenyl-3,4,5-trimethoxyphenylmethanone (5f) produced significant activities with 2.7+/-0.01 micromol/L.

A regio- and stereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition for the synthesis of new-fangled dispiropyrrolothiazoles as antimycobacterial agents

A series of dispiropyrrolothiazoles compounds were synthesized using 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition and were screened for antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Rv and INH resistant M. tuberculosis strains. Two of them were showing good activity with MIC of less than 1 μM. Compound (5f) was found to be the most active with MIC of 0.210 and 8.312 μM respectively.

Synthesis and discovery of novel hexacyclic cage compounds as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase.

Hexacyclic derivatives share vital pharmacological properties, considered useful in Alzheimers disease. The aim of this study was synthesis and its evaluation for acetyl cholinesterase inhibitory activity of novel hexacyclic analogues. Compound 4f, showed potent inhibitory activity against acetyl cholinesterase enzyme with IC(50) 0.72 μmol/L.

Bis dihydropyrimidine: synthesis and antimycobacterial activity

A series of bis dihydropyrimidine compounds were synthesised by reacting dapsone with acetylacetoacetate to produce N1-4-[4-(2-oxopropylcarboxamido) phenylsulphonyl] phenyl-3-oxobutanamide, then treated with guanidine hydrochloride and an appropriate aldehyde with a catalytic amount of p-toluene sulphonic acid (PTSA) in the presence of methanol to afford the title compounds. The synthesised compounds were evaluated for their antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and isoniazid (INH) resistant M. tuberculosis. Among the synthesised compounds, compound N5-(4-4-[6-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-imino-4-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5-pyrimidinylcarboxamido ]phenylsulphonylphenyl)-6-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-imino-4-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5-pyrimidine carboxamide (3g) was found to be the most promising compound with activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv and INH resistant M. tuberculosis with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) between 0.08 and 0.10 μM.

Antimycobacterial activity: synthesis of novel 3-(substituted phenyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-3a,4-dihydro-3H-indeno[1,2-c]isoxazole analogues

In this study, a series of novel 3-(substituted phenyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-3a,4-dihydro-3H-indeno[1,2-c]isoxazole analogues were synthesized and evaluated for antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H37Rv and isoniazid resistant M. tuberculosis (INHR-MTB). All the newly synthesized compounds were showing moderate to high inhibitory activities. The compound 6,7-dimethoxy-3-(4-chloro phenyl)-4H-indeno[1,2-c]isoxazole (4b) was found to be the most promising compound, active against MTB H37Rv and INHR-MTB with minimum inhibitory concentrations of 0.22 and 0.34 μM.

Discovery of novel methanone derivatives acting as antimycobacterial agents

A series of pyrazoline derivatives were synthesized and in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv was carried out. Among the synthesized compounds, compounds (4d) and (4f) 4-aminophenyl-3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-2,3,3a,4-tetrahydroindeno[1,2-c]pyrazol-2-ylmethanone and 4-aminophenyl-6,7-dimethoxy-3-phenyl-2,3,3a,4-tetrahydroindeno[1,2-c]pyrazol-2-ylmethanone were found to be the most active agent against M. tuberculosis H37Rv with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 10 μg/mL.
