Novel bis(pyrazole-benzofuran) hybrids possessing piperazine linker: Synthesis of potent bacterial biofilm and MurB inhibitors.
Novel 1,4-bis[(2-(3-(dimethylamino)-1-oxoprop-2-en-1-yl)benzofuran-5-yl)methyl]piperazine was prepared and used as a key synthon for the this study. Therefore, 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of this synthon with the appropriate hydrazonyl chlorides afforded a new series of bis(1,3,4-trisubstituted pyrazoles), linked via piperazine moiety. Furthermore, it reacted with hydrazine hydrate and phenyl hydrazine individually to afford the corresponding 1,4-bis[(2-(1H-pyrazolyl)benzofuran-5-yl)methyl]piperazines. Different bacterial strains and cell lines were selected to study the in-vitro antibacterial and cytotoxic activities for the new derivatives. 1,4-Bis[((2-(3-acetyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-yl)carbonyl)benzofuran-5-yl)methyl]piperazine 5e showed the best antibacterial efficacies with MIC/MBC values of 1.2/1.2, 1.2/2.4 and 1.2/2.4 μM against each of E. coli, S. aureus and S. mutans strains, respectively. In addition, the inhibitory activity of some new bis(pyrazoles) as MRSA and VRE inhibitors were studied. Compound 5e gave the best inhibitory activity with MIC/MBC values of 18.1/36.2, 9.0/18.1 and 18.1/18.1 µM, respectively, against MRSA (ATCC:33591 and ATCC:43300) and VRE (ATCC:51575) bacterial strains, respectively. Compound 5e showed more effective biofilm inhibition activities than the reference Ciprofloxacin.

Design, synthesis and evaluation of novel benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles and benzofurans incorporating pyrazole moiety as antiangiogenic agents.
Novel benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles and benzofurans incorporating pyrazole moiety have been synthesized and screened for their antiangogenic activities, by testing their ability to inhibit human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) proliferation, cord formation and migration in response to chemoattractant. 3 compounds 19, 23 and 26 showed antiangiogenic activities at non-cytotoxic concentrations. Compound 19 was the most active with chemotaxis activity data nearly comparable to that of the positive control, TNP-470. Compound 42 showed a significant cytotoxic effect on the tested cancer cell lines and less antiangiogenesis activity compared to compounds 19, 23 and 26. All the tested compounds, in contrary to TNP-470, interfered with the migratory function of HUVECs in response to vascular endothelial growth factor rather than the endothelial cells proliferation or cord formation. Moreover, a docked pose of compounds 19 and 26 was obtained bound to kinase insert domain receptor using Molecular Operating Environment module.

Synthesis of benzofuran based 1,3,5-substituted pyrazole derivatives: as a new class of potent antioxidants and antimicrobials--a novel accost to amend biocompatibility.
In search for a new antioxidant and antimicrobial agent with improved potency, we synthesized a series of benzofuran based 1,3,5-substituted pyrazole analogues (5a-l) in five step reaction. Initially, o-alkyl derivative of salicyaldehyde readily furnish corresponding 2-acetyl benzofuran 2 in good yield, on treatment with 1,8-diaza bicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) in the presence of molecular sieves. Further, aldol condensation with vanillin, Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction with hydrazine hydrate followed by coupling of substituted anilines afforded target compounds. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, mass, elemental analysis and further screened for their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. Among the tested compounds 5d and 5f exhibited good antioxidant property with 50% inhibitory concentration higher than that of reference while compounds 5h and 5l exhibited good antimicrobial activity at concentration 1.0 and 0.5 mg/mL compared with standard, streptomycin and fluconazole respectively.

Pyrazole-based cathepsin S inhibitors with improved cellular potency.
High potency pyrazole-based noncovalent inhibitors of human cathepsin S (CatS) were developed by modification of the benzo-fused 5-membered ring heterocycles found in earlier series of CatS inhibitors. Although substitutions on this heterocyclic framework had a moderate impact on enzymatic potency, dramatic effects on cellular activity were observed. Optimization afforded indole- and benzothiophene-derived analogues that were high affinity CatS inhibitors (IC(50)=20-40 nM) with good cellular potency (IC(50)=30-340 nM).
