Exploring the Synergistic Anticancer Potential of Benzofuran-Oxadiazoles and Triazoles: Improved Ultrasound- and Microwave-Assisted Synthesis, Molecular Docking, Hemolytic, Thrombolytic and Anticancer Evaluation of Furan-Based Molecules.

ABSTRACT: Ultrasound- and microwave-assisted green synthetic strategies were applied to furnish benzofuran-oxadiazole 5a-g and benzofuran-triazole 7a-h derivatives in good to excellent yields (60-96%), in comparison with conventional methods (36-80% yield). These synthesized derivatives were screened for hemolysis, thrombolysis and anticancer therapeutic potential against an A549 lung cancer cell line using an MTT assay. Derivatives 7b (0.1%) and 5e (0.5%) showed the least toxicity against RBCs. Hybrid 7f showed excellent thrombolysis activity (61.4%) when compared against reference ABTS. The highest anticancer activity was displayed by the 5d structural hybridwith cell viability 27.49 ± 1.90 and IC50 6.3 ± 0.7 μM values, which were considerably lower than the reference drug crizotinib (IC50 8.54 ± 0.84 μM). Conformational analysis revealed the spatial arrangement of compound 5d, which demonstrated its significant potency in comparison with crizotinib; therefore, scaffold 5d would be a promising anticancer agent on the basis of cytotoxicity studies, as well as in silico modeling studies.

Project description:Benzofuran, 1,3,4-oxadiazole, and 1,2,4-triazole are privileged heterocyclic moieties that display the most promising and wide spectrum of biological activities against a wide variety of diseases. In the current study, benzofuran-1,3,4-oxadiazole BF1-BF7 and benzofuran-1,2,4-triazole compounds BF8-BF15 were tested against HCV NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) utilizing structure-based screening via a computer-aided drug design (CADD) approach. A molecular docking approach was applied to evaluate the binding potential of benzofuran-appended 1,3,4-oxadiazole and 1,2,4-triazole BF1-BF15 molecules. Benzofuran-1,3,4-oxadiazole scaffolds BF1-BF7 showed lesser binding affinities (-12.63 to -14.04 Kcal/mol) than benzofuran-1,2,4-triazole scaffolds BF8-BF15 (-14.11 to -16.09 Kcal/mol) against the HCV NS5B enzyme. Molecular docking studies revealed the excellent binding affinity scores exhibited by benzofuran-1,2,4-triazole structural motifs BF-9 (-16.09 Kcal/mol), BF-12 (-15.75 Kcal/mol), and BF-13 (-15.82 Kcal/mol), respectively, which were comparatively better than benzofuran-based HCV NS5B inhibitors' standard reference drug Nesbuvir (-15.42 Kcal/mol). A molecular dynamics simulation assay was also conducted to obtain valuable insights about the enzyme-compounds interaction profile and structural stability, which indicated the strong intermolecular energies of the BF-9+NS5B complex and the BF-12+NS5B complex as per the MM-PBSA method, while the BF-12+NS5B complex was the most stable system as per the MM-GBSA calculation. The drug-likeness and ADMET studies of all the benzofuran-1,2,4-triazole derivatives BF8-BF15 revealed that these compounds possessed good medicinal chemistry profiles in agreement with all the evaluated parameters for being drugs. The molecular docking affinity scores, MM-PBSA/MM-GBSA and MD-simulation stability analysis, drug-likeness profiling, and ADMET study assessment indicated that N-4-fluorophenyl-S-linked benzofuran-1,2,4-triazole BF-12 could be a future promising anti-HCV NS5B RdRp inhibitor therapeutic drug candidate that has a structural agreement with the Nesbuvir standard reference drug.

Project description:Recently, heterocyclic compounds such as pyrido [2,3-d] pyrimidinones, 1,2,4-triazolopyrimidines, pyrimidoquinazolines, and quinoline derivatives have gained attention from researchers due to their pharmacological and biological activities. To synthesize new compounds, quinoline-2-thioxopyrido [2,3-d] pyrimidinone (1) and methylthioquinoline-pyrido [2,3-d] pyrimidinones (2) were used as starting materials. The new compounds synthesized were quinoline-pyrido [2,3-d] (DeGoey et al., 2013; Gouda et al., 2020; Dangolani et al., 2018) [1, 2,4]triazolopyrimidinones (5a-d), 2-methylsulfonyl-quinoline-pyrido [2,3-d]pyrimidinone (6), pyrido [2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives, pyridopyrimido (Gouda et al., 2020; DeGoey et al., 2013) 2,12,1-b] quinazoline (9), pyrido [(Khajouei et al., 2021; Gouda et al., 2020) 3,23,2-e]bis (1,2,4-triazole)pyrimidine (12a,b) and pyridopyrimido-diquinazoline-dione (16) derivatives. These compounds were synthesized with high efficiency, producing yields ranging from 69% to 90%, under moderate conditions, through treating (2) or (10) with various reagents such as anthranilic acid, phosphorus oxychloride, hydrazine hydrate, formic acid, glacial acetic acid, arylamine (aniline, 4-chloroaniline, or 4-methoxyaniline), and sec-amine (piperazine or morpholine). The new structures of the synthesized compounds were verified using various spectroscopic procedures, such as IR, NMR, and mass spectra. Molecular docking studies were carried out to investigate and discuss how the prepared compounds bind to amino acids such as Estrogen Receptor alpha, EGFR, and NADPH oxidase protein. Also, the synthesized products were tested for their anticancer and antioxidant activities against the (MCF-7) breast carcinoma cell line and human normal Retina pigmented epithelium cells (RPE-1). The study on the structure-activity relationship (SAR) established a correlation between the chemical structure of the newly synthesized compounds and their anticancer activity. The findings suggest that compounds 5a-d, 9,12a-b, and 16 exhibited promising anticancer activity and antioxidant effects as measured by DPPH inhibition.
