RESUMO
Several new pyrazole, pyridine, [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-α]pyrimidine, benzimidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine and 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-c][1,2,4]triazine derivatives incorporating a thiophene moiety were synthesized from (E)-ethyl 5-(3-(dimethylamino)acryloyl)-4-phenyl-2-(phenylamino)thiophene-3-carboxylate (1). The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, ¹H-, (13)C-NMR, mass spectral data and elemental analysis. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of all the synthesized compounds were evaluated. The results indicated that compounds 9, 12, and 19 were found to be more potent than the standard drug Amphotericin B against Aspergillus fumigates. Additionally, compound 12 exhibited higher activity than the standard drug Amphotericin B against Syncephalastrum racemosum.

Tetrasubstituted 2-acetylthiophene derivative 5 was synthesized and then condensed with various nitrogen nucleophiles such as 5-amino-1,2,4-triazole, 2-aminobenzimidazole, aniline or p-chloroaniline to afford the corresponding iminothiophene derivatives 6-8a,b. Condensation of thiophene 5 with malononitrile as carbon nucleophile afforded compound 9, which underwent nucleophilic addition with DMF-DMA to afford compound 10. The newly synthesized products were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, MS, ¹H-(13)C-NMR and CHN analysis and then evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. Results of the in vitro antibacterial activity showed that thiophene derivative 7 was found to be more potent than the standard drug gentamicin against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Some of these compounds showed potential antimicrobial activities. Molecular docking and Osiris/Molinspiration analyses show the crucial role and impact of substituents on bioactivity and indicate the unfavorable structural parameters in actual drug design: more substitution with electronic donor group doesn't guarantee more effective bioactivity. This study should greatly help in an intelligent and a controlled pharmacomodulation of antibiotics.

In this study, the chemical compositions of the ethanolic and aqueous extracts of the leaves of Origanum syriacum and Salvia lanigera were identified based on GC-MS spectrometric analyses. The in vitro anti-inflammatory potential of the different extracts was evaluated by determining the membrane stabilization of human red blood cells and the percent inhibition of the COX1/2, 5LOX, and sPLA2-V enzymes. Both ethanolic extracts showed maximum membrane stabilization (≤ 91%, at 100 µg/mL) compared to the aqueous extracts (≤ 45%) and the reference drug diclofenac sodium (90.75%). The membrane-stabilizing effects of the ethanolic extracts could be directly correlated to their anti-inflammatory activity. While both ethanolic fractions strongly inhibited the 5LOX and COX-1 enzymes at 100 µg/mL, only the O. syriacum ethanolic extract selectively inhibited sPLA2-V (99.35%, at 50 µg/mL). The differences in the pharmacological efficiencies of the different extracts could be attributed to the variation in their chemical compositions particularly the content of oxygenated monoterpenoids. Additionally, none of the ethanolic extracts demonstrated cytotoxicity to human colorectal cancer cell lines (HCT-116 and Lovo), even at the highest concentration tested (200 µg/mL). The safe profiles of these extracts towards the tested cell lines may be due to the absence of the toxic phthalic acid ester substances. Collectively, these findings clearly suggest that the studied ethanolic extracts of O. syriacum and S. lanigera can be considered interesting candidates for the treatment of human inflammatory diseases related to oxidative stress and microbial infections.
