RESUMO
A series of novel ibuprofen and salicylic acid-based 3,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2(3H)-thione derivatives was synthesized, and they were evaluated as potential anti-inflammatory agents. Following the structure identification studies employing IR, 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13 C NMR, and elemental analysis, the title compounds were tested by cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 inhibition assays concomitant to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide and prostaglandin production prevention experiments. The results indicated that the majority of the compounds displayed either a superior or comparable activity in preventing both LPS-induced NO production and COX-1 activity in comparison to the activities of the reference molecules. Furthermore, docking studies were also performed to reveal possible interactions with the COX enzymes.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which are widely used for the treatment of rheumatic arthritis, pain, and many different types of inflammatory disorders, cause serious gastrointestinal (GI) side effects. The free carboxylic acid group existing on their chemical structure is correlated with GI toxicity related with all routine NSAIDs. Replacing this functional group with the 1,3,4-oxadiazole bioisostere is a generally used strategy to obtain an anti-inflammatory agent devoid of GI side effects. In the present work, a novel group of 5-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2(3H)-one Mannich bases were synthesized and characterized on the basis of IR, 1 H NMR, and elemental analysis results. The target compounds were first tested for cytotoxicity to determine a non-toxic concentration for anti-inflammatory screening. Anti-inflammatory effects of the compounds were evaluated by in vitro lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced NO production and in vivo carrageenan footpad edema with ulcerogenic profile. In LPS-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages, most of the compounds showed inhibitory activity on nitrite production while compounds 5a, 5h, and 5j exhibited the best profiles by suppressing the NO production. To evaluate the in vivo anti-inflammatory potency of the compounds, the inflammatory response was quantified by increment in paw size in the carrageenan footpad edema assay. The anti-inflammatory data scoring showed that compounds 5a-d, 5g, and 5j, at the dose of 100 mg/kg, exhibited anti-inflammatory activity, which for compound 5g was comparable to that of the reference drug indomethacin with 53.9% and 55.5% inhibition in 60 and 120 min, respectively.

The reaction of 3,4-dichlorophenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2( 3H )-thione with piperidine derivatives via Mannich reaction was used to generate eleven novel compounds in moderate to good yields. Synthesized molecules were characterized according to their structure with 1H NMR, 13C NMR and FT-IR spectral foundations, which were compatible with literature informations. Antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity studies were done by disc diffusion and NCI-60 sulphordamine B assay methods. The antimicrobial test results revealed that synthesized compounds have better activity against gram-positive species than gram-negative ones. A total analysis of the antibacterial, antifungal, and antiyeast activity revealed that newly synthesized compounds were really active against Bacillus cereus , Bacillus ehimensis, and Bacillus thuringiensis species . For cytotoxicity, among three different cancer cell lines (HCT116, MCF7, HUH7) compounds 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5i, 5j and 5k were seemed especially effective on HUH7 cancer cell line via moderate to good activity. More significantly, against liver carcinoma cell line (HUH7) most of the compounds of the series ( 5c-5g and 5i-5j ) have better IC50 values (IC50= 18.78 µM) than 5-Florouracil (5-FU) and also compound 5d possessed 10.1 µM value, which represents good druggable cytotoxic activity. Further, the molecules were also screened for in silico chemoinformatic and toxicity data to gather the predicted bioavailibity and safety measurements.
