Certain pyridothienopyrimidine derivatives exhibit antiatheroscleorotic, antibacterial, antiviral, antidepressant, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, anticancer, antihistaminic, antiallergic, anti-inflammatory, spasmolytic, analgesic, and neurotropic activities. 4-Hydrazino-7,9-dimethylpyrido[3′,2′:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine (1) is a reported pyridothienopyrimidine derivative. In the current study, (1) has been reacted with different reagents to obtain 12 new pyridothienopyrimidine derivatives. The newly synthesized five-membered heterocyclic rings incorporated with pyridothienopyrimidines have been screened for their antibacterial activities. The results encourage further studies on other possible biological activities.

In this paper, we report on the design and synthesis of a novel series of quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione derivatives as fluoroquinolone-like inhibitors of bacterial gyrase and DNA topoisomerase IV to identify and develop antimicrobial agents to prevent bacterial resistance problems. Their structures were confirmed using spectroscopic analyses (IR, NMR, and EI-MS). The novel quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione derivatives were evaluated for their antimicrobial activities against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains using the Agar well diffusion method to study the antimicrobial activities and compared them with the standard drugs. Most compounds displayed moderate activity. Among the tested compounds, the most promising compounds 13 and 15 provided broad bioactive spectrum against Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains compared to the standard drugs.

This study reports the design, synthesis, and antibacterial evaluation of a library of novel polyheterocyclic derivatives featuring a unique fused pyrimidopyridopyrazole moiety. A cyclocondensation reaction between an amino−pyrazolopyridopyrimidine precursor and malonates afforded a series of pyrimidopyridopyrazolopyrimidine derivatives. Further diversification was achieved through nucleophilic cyclocondensation, yielding a collection of complex polyheterocyclic systems encompassing various ring structures. All synthesized compounds were rigorously characterized using spectroscopic techniques and elemental analysis. The antibacterial activity of the newly synthesized compounds was assessed against a panel of Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria. Notably, several compounds exhibited promising antibacterial activity, highlighting their potential as leads for the development of novel antibiotics.
