RESUMO
A series of 4-styrylcoumarin have been synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation between substituted 4-methylcoumarin-3-carbonitrile and different heterocyclic or aromatic aldehydes. 4-Methylcoumarin-3-carbonitrile has been synthesized by the base catalyzed reaction between substituted 2-hydroxyacetophenone and ethyl cyanoacetate. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by (1)H NMR, IR and mass spectral analysis. All the compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity (against TNF-α and IL-6) and anti-tubercular activity. Compounds 6a, 6h and 6j exhibited promising activity against IL-6 with 72-87% inhibition and compound 6v showed potent activity against TNF-α with 73% inhibition at 10 µM concentration. Whereas compounds 6n, 6o, 6r and 6u showed very good anti-tubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain at <6.25 µM.

A series of novel N-1,3-benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl-2-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-4-yl)acetamide derivatives has been synthesized. All the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anti-HIV activity using MTT method. Most of these compounds showed moderate to potent activity against wild-type HIV-1 with an EC(50) ranging from >7 EC(50) [µg/ml] to <100 EC(50) [µg/ml]. Among them, N-1,3-benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl-2-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-4-yl)acetamide 6v was identified as the most promising compound (EC(50)=<7 µg/ml). Among all the compounds, three compounds 6m, 6v and 6u have been exhibits potent anti-HIV activity against MT-4 cells.

A series of symmetrical and unsymmetrical 1,4-dihydropyridines were synthesized by a rapid, single pot microwave irradiation (MWI) based protocol along with conventional approach and characterized by NMR, IR and mass spectroscopic techniques. The compounds were evaluated for their tumor cell cytotoxicity in HL-60 tumor cells. A 3D-QSAR study using CoMFA and CoMSIA was carried out to decipher the factors governing MDR reversing ability in cancer. The resulting contour maps derived by the best 3D-QSAR models provide a good insight into the molecular features relevant to the biological activity in this series of analogs. 3D contour maps as a result of 3D-QSAR were utilized to identify some novel features that can be incorporated into the 1,4-dihydropyridine framework to enhance the activity.

A new series of benzofuran-2-yl(4,5-diydro-3,5-substituted diphenylpyrazol-1-yl) methanone derivatives 8a-x by the reaction of the benzofuran-2-carbohydrazides 7 with various chalcone derivatives 3a-x using microwave irradiation has been described. The effect of synthesized compounds 8a-v was studied against human cancer cell lines for their antiproliferative activity and reversal of multidrug resistance on human MDR1-gene transfected mouse lymphoma cells. Among the 24 compounds, the 8c and 8h showed good antiproliferative activity 8b, 8f and 8k were exhibited good MDR reversal activity. The main significance of the process is easy workup process, short reaction time and high yield of the new compounds for biological interest. However, the studies on genetically modified multidrug resistant cancer cells are costly and time consuming.
