RESUMEN
A series of novel 8-OMe ciprofloxacin (CPFX)-hydrazone/azole hybrids were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their in vitro biological activities. Our results reveal that all of the hydrozone-containing hybrids (except for 7) show potency against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H37Rv (minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC): <0.5 µM), which is better than the parent drug CPFX, and comparable to moxifloxacin and isoniazid, some of the tested Gram-positive strains (MIC: 0.06-4 µg/mL), and most Gram-negative strains (MIC: ≤0.03-4 µg/mL).

Hybridization of different pharmacophores from various bioactive substances into a single molecule is the potential weapon to prevent the drug resistance since this strategy can provide new leads with complimentary activities and/or multiple pharmacological targets. Fluoroquinolone and isatin are common pharmacophores, and their derivatives possess various biological activities. Obviously, hybridization of these two pharmacophores into one molecule may result in novel candidates with broader spectrum, higher efficiency, lower toxicity as well as multiple mechanisms of action. Therefore, fluoroquinolone-isatin hybrids have the potential for clinical deployment in the control and eradication of various diseases. This review covers the recent advances of fluoroquinolone-isatin hybrids as potential anti-bacterial, anti-tubercular, anti-viral and anti-cancer agents. The structure-activity relationship is also discussed to pave the way for the further rational development of this kind of hybrids.

One-third of the world's population infected tuberculosis (TB), and more than 1 million deaths annually. The co-infection between the mainly pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and HIV, and the incidence of drug-resistant TB, multi-drug resistant TB, extensively drug-resistant TB as well as totally drug-resistant TB have further aggravated the mortality and spread of this disease. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop novel anti-TB agents against both drug-susceptible and drug-resistant TB. The wide spectrum of biological activities and successful utilization of pyrazole-containing drugs in clinic have inspired more and more attention towards this kind of heterocycles. Numerous of pyrazole-containing derivatives have been synthesized for searching new anti-TB agents, and some of them showed promising potency and may have novel mechanism of action. This review aims to outline the recent achievements in pyrazole-containing derivatives as anti-TB agents and their structure-activity relationship.

Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the most widespread and leading deadliest diseases, threats one-third of the world's population. Although numerous efforts have been undertaken to develop new anti-TB agents, only a handful of compounds have entered human trials in the past 5 decades. Triazoles including 1,2,3-triazole and 1,2,4-triazole are one of the most important classes of nitrogen containing heterocycles that exhibited various biological activities. Triazole derivatives are regarded as a new class of effective anti-TB candidates owing to their potential anti-TB potency. Thus, molecules containing triazole moiety may show promising in vitro and in vivo anti-TB activities and might be able to prevent the drug resistant to certain extent. This review outlines the advances in the application of triazole-containing hybrids as anti-TB agents, and discusses the structure-activity relationship of these derivatives.

Twelve novel 1H-1,2,3-triazole-tethered gatifloxacin (GTFX) isatin conjugates 5a-l with greater lipophilicity compared with GTFX were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro anti-mycobacterial activities against M. tuberculosis (MTB) H37Rv and MDR-TB as well as cytotoxicity. The preliminary results showed that all the targets (MIC: 0.10-8 µg/mL) exhibited excellent inhibitory activity against MTB H37Rv and MDR-TB, but eight of them (CC50: 7.8-62.5 µg/mL) were much more toxic than the parent GTFX (CC50: 125 µg/mL). Among them, 5g (MIC: 0.10 µg/mL) was 4-8 times more potent in vitro than the references GTFX (MIC: 0.78 µg/mL) and RIF (MIC: 0.39 µg/mL) against MTB H37Rv, but less active than INH (MIC: 0.05 µg/mL). The most potent 5g and 5h (MIC: 0.25 µg/mL) were 4->512 times more active than the three references (MIC: 1.0->128 µg/mL) against MDR-TB. Unfortunately, both of the two hybrids (CC50: 7.8 µg/mL) were much more cytotoxic than the other derivatives, need to be further optimized.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a lift-threatening chronic deadliest infectious disease caused predominantly by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) which affects primarily the lungs (pulmonary TB) apart from other vital organs. The emergence of drug-resistant TB (DR-TB), multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB), extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB) and the recently cases of totally drug resistant (TDR) towards currently accessible standard drugs was increased up to alarming level in the recent decades. In pursuit of searching new anti-TB agents, numerous of derivatives have been synthesized and screened for their anti-TB activity. Coumarins are one of the most important classes of natural products that exhibited various biological activities, and their derivatives regarded as a new class of effective anti-TB candidates owing to their potential anti-TB activity. Thus, coumarin skeleton has attracted great interest in the development of new anti-TB agents. This review outlines the advances in the application of coumarin-containing derivatives as anti-TB agents and the critical aspects of design and structure-activity relationship of these derivatives.

The emergence and wide-spread of drug-resistant bacteria including multi-drug resistant and pan-drug resistant pathogens which are associated with considerable mortality, represent a significant global health threat. 4-Quinolones which are exemplified by fluoroquinolones are the second largest chemotherapy agents used in clinical practice for the treatment of various bacterial infections. However, the resistance of bacteria to 4-quinolones develops rapidly and spreads widely throughout the world due to the long-term, inappropriate use and even abuse. To overcome the resistance and improve the potency, several strategies have been developed. Amongst them, molecular hybridization, which is based on the incorporation of two or more pharmacophores into a single molecule with a flexible linker, is one of the most practical approaches. This review aims to summarize the recent advances made towards the discovery of 4-quinolone hybrids as potential antibacterial agents as well as their structure-activity relationship (SAR). The enriched SAR may pave the way for the further rational development of 4-quinolone hybrids with excellent potency against both drug-susceptible and drug-resistant bacteria.

Tuberculosis (TB), which has been a scourge of humanity for thousands of years, is a worldwide pandemic disease caused mainly by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). The emergence of drug-resistant TB (DR-TB), multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB), extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB) and totally drug-resistant TB (TDR-TB) increase the challenges to eliminate TB worldwide. Isoniazid (INH), a critical frontline anti-TB drug, is one of the most effective drugs used to treatment of TB infection for more than 60 years. Unfortunately, bacterial strains resistant to INH are becoming common which mainly due to the long-term widely use even abuse. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop novel anti-TB agents. Numerous efforts have been undertaken to develop new anti-TB agents, but no new drug has been introduced for more than 5 decades. It has been suggested that the incorporation of lipophilic moieties into the framework of INH can increase permeation of the drug into bacterial cells, thereby enhancing the anti-TB. Therefore, INH derivatives with greater lipophilicity are emerging as one of the most potential anti-TB agents. Indeed, the INH derivative LL-3858 is in initial stages of phase II clinical trial for the treatment of TB and may be approved to treat TB in the near future. This review aims to summarize the recent advances made towards the discovery anti-TB agents holding INH as a nucleus including INH hybrids and INH hydrazide-hydrazone derivatives.

As an important organic compound, chiral alcohols are the key chiral building blocks to many single enantiomer pharmaceuticals. Asymmetric reduction of the corresponding prochiral ketones to produce the chiral alcohols by biocatalysis is one of the most promising routes. Asymmetric reduction of different kinds of non-natural prochiral ketones catalyzed by various plants tissue was studied in this work. Acetophenone, 4'-chloroacetophenone and ethyl 4-chloroacetoacetate were chosen as the model substrates for simple ketone, halogen-containing aromatic ketone and beta-ketoesters, respectively. Apple (Malus pumila), carrot (Daucus carota), cucumber (Cucumis sativus), onion (Allium cepa), potato (Soanum tuberosum), radish (Raphanus sativus) and sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) were chosen as the biocatalysts. It was found that these kinds of prochiral ketoness could be reduced by these plants tissue with high enantioselectivity. Both R- and S-form configuration chiral alcohols could be obtained. The e.e. and chemical yield could reach about 98 and 80% respectively for acetophenone and 4'-chloroacetophenone reduction reaction with favorable plant tissue. And the e.e. and yield for ethyl 4-chloroacetoacetate reduction reaction was about 91 and 45% respectively.
