- Description: The Cs2CO3-catalysed condensation of 5-bromo-7-azabenzimidazole with a series of bromomethyl ketones has afforded a small library of ten, novel 5-bromo-1-[(N-substututed-carbamoyl)methyl]-7-azabenzimidazoles. Rotamerism in the products, as evidenced by the splitting of 1H- and 13C-NMR signals, is attributed to hindered internal rotation about the amide N-C(=O) bond, and has been explored using dynamic NMR (DNMR) analysis and computational methods at the GIAO B3LYP/6-311+G(2d,p) level of theory. Coalescence temperatures have been obtained for representative examples and rotational barriers determined experimentally and theoretically. A detailed theoretical analysis has been undertaken to explore conformations which may contribute to the relative populations of the s-cis and s-trans rotamers. The products have also been screened for cytotoxicity and activity against two parasitic protozoan strains (Plasmodium falciparum and Trypanosoma brucei).

- Description: Malaria elimination can benefit from time and cost-efficient approaches for antimalarials such as drug repurposing. In this work, 796 DrugBank compounds were screened against 36 Plasmodium falciparum targets using QuickVina-W. Hits were selected after rescoring using GRaph Interaction Matching (GRIM) and ligand efficiency metrics: surface efficiency index (SEI), binding efficiency index (BEI) and lipophilic efficiency (LipE). They were further evaluated in Molecular dynamics (MD). Twenty-five protein–ligand complexes were finally retained from the 28,656 (36×796) dockings.

- Description: A series of N-benzylated phosphoramidate esters, containing a 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl Mg2+-chelating group, has been synthesised in five steps as analogues of fosmidomycin, a Plasmodium falciparum 1-deoxy-1-D-xylulose-5- phosphate reductoisomerase (PfDXR) inhibitor. The 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl group effectively replaces the Mg2+- chelating hydroxamic acid group in fosmidomycin. The compounds showed very encouraging anti-parasitic activity with IC50 values of 5.6–16.4 µM against Plasmodium falciparum parasites and IC50 values of 5.2 – 10.2 µM against Trypanosoma brucei brucei (T.b.brucei). Data obtained from in silico docking of the ligands in the PfDXR receptor cavity (3AU9)5 support their potential as PfDXR inhibitors.

- Description: An efficient synthetic pathway to a series of novel “reverse” fosmidomycin analogues has been developed, commencing from substituted benzylamines. In these analogues, the fosmidomycin hydroxamate moiety is reversed and the tetrahedral methylene carbon adjacent to the phosphonate moiety is replaced by a nitrogen atom bearing different benzyl groups. The resulting phosphonate esters were designed as potential antimalarial “pro-drugs”.

- Description: Herein, we propose novel quinolones incorporating an INH moiety as potential drug templates against TB. The quinolone-based compounds bearing an INH moiety attached via a hydrazide–hydrazone bond were synthesised and evaluated against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB). The compounds were also evaluated for cytotoxicity against HeLa cell lines. These compounds showed significant activity (MIC90) against MTB in the range of 0.2–8 μM without any cytotoxic effects. Compounds 10 (MIC90; 0.9 μM), 11 (MIC90; 0.2 μM), 12 (MIC90; 0.8 μM) and compound 15 (MIC90; 0.8 μM), the most active compounds in this series, demonstrate activities on par with INH and superior to those reported for the fluoroquinolones. The SAR analysis suggests that the nature of substituents at positions −1 and −3 of the quinolone nucleus influences anti-MTB activity. Aqueous solubility evaluation and in vitro metabolic stability of compound 12 highlights favourable drug-like properties for this compound class.
