All compounds showed various degree of urease inhibitory activity with iC50 values ranging 7.45 ± 0.12 - 74.24 ± 0.81 μmol/L while the standard thiourea behaved normally (ICso = 21.10 ±0.12). Compounds I (IC50= 7.45 ± 0.12 ]μmol/L), 9 (IC50 =18,17 ± 1.03 bmol/L) and 13 (IC50= 8.61 ± 0.45 bmol/L) showed excellent urease inhibitory activity in the series. Molecular modeling studies were performed to understand the binding site with the bimetallic nickel center of the enzyme. Structure-activity relationship has also been established for these compounds. This study identified bis- thiobarbiturate as a novel class of urease inhibitors.展开更多

Small series of morpholine hydrazones synthesized by treating 5-morpholinothiophene-2-carbaldehyde with different aryl hydrazides to form morpholine hydrazones scaffold(1-17). The in vitro anticancer potential of all these compounds was checked against human cancer cell lines like Hep G2(human hepatocellular liver carcinoma) and MCF-7(human breast adenocarcinoma). Analogs 13 had similar substantial cytotoxic effects towards Hep G2 with IC_(50) value 6.31±1.03μmmol/L when compared with the standard Doxorubicin(IC_(50)value 6.00±0.80μmmol/L); while compounds 5,8 and 9 showed potent cytotoxicity against MCF-7 with IC_(50) value 7.08±0.42μmmol/L, 1.26±0.34μmmol/L and11.22±0.22μmmol/L respectively when compared with the standard Tamoxifen(IC_(50)= 11.00±0.40μmol/L).
