Synthesis, antimycobacterial, cytotoxicity, anti-inflammatory, in silico studies and molecular dynamics of pyrazole-embedded thiazolidin-4-one hybrids.

In the present investigation, we devolved and synthesized a new series of pyrazole-embedded thiazolidin-4-one derivatives (9a-p) with the goal to produce promising antitubercular leads. The in vitro antimycobacterial activity of the synthesized compounds was tested against replicating and nonreplicating Mtb H37Rv strains. With MIC ranging from 3.03 to 22.55 µg/ml, five compounds (9a, 9c, 9d, 9e, and 9f) emerged as promising antitubercular agents. The active molecules were nontoxic to normal Vero cells. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for in vitro anti-inflammatory studies. Compounds 9a, 9b, 9c, 9h, and 9i exhibited excellent anti-inflammatory efficacy. Docking study was performed to understand the binding pattern of the significantly active compound 9a with 1P44.

Synthesis of novel Schiff bases using 2-Amino-5-(3-fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)thiophene-3-carbonitrile and 1,3-Disubstituted pyrazole-4-carboxaldehydes derivatives and their antimicrobial activity.

2-Amino-5-(3-fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)thiophene-3-carbonitrile have been synthesized from 1-(3-fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)ethanone, malononitrile, a mild base and sulfur powder using Gewald synthesis technique and the intermediate was treated with 1,3-disubstituted pyrazole-4-carboxaldehyde to obtain the novel Schiff bases. 1,3-disubstituted pyrazole-4-carboxaldehyde derivatives have been synthesized by Vilsmeier-Haack reaction in the course of a multi-step reaction. The structure of novel compounds were established on the basis of their elemental analyses IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass spectral data and then screened for their in vitro antimicrobial activity. Among them 5a, 5c, 5f and 5h showed excellent activity when compared to other derivatives. Remaining derivatives showed moderate activity.
