Novel heterocyclic compounds containing pyrazole, thiazole and pyridine moieties were designed and prepared based on the condensation reaction between 1,3-thiazole or aminopyridine derivatives and 1H-pyrazole,3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole or 1,2,4-triazole. Their structures were confirmed with FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR analyses. DPPH scavenging assay was used to evaluate their antioxidant potential. The ligand 4 showed the best antioxidant activity with an IC50 = 4.67 μg/mL, while IC50 values of the other compounds were found to be ranging from 20.56 to 45.32 μg/mL. DFT and molecular docking studies were performed in order to gain better insights and to understand the relationship between the structures of the studied compounds and their antioxidant activities. The results obtained revealed a good agreement between the experimental and the theoretical findings.

Twelve recent compounds, incorporating several heterocyclic moieties such as pyrazole, thiazole, triazole, and benzotriazole, made in excellent yield up to 37–99.6%. They were tested against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. albedinis fungi (Bayoud disease), where the best results are for compounds 2, 4, and 5 with IC50 = 18.8–54.4 μg/mL. Density functional theory (DFT) study presented their molecular reactivity, while the docking simulations to describe the synergies between the trained compounds of dataset containing all the tested compounds (57 molecules) and F. oxysporum phytase domain (Fophy) enzyme as biological target. By comparing the results of the docking studies for the Fophy protein, it is found that compound 5 has the best affinity followed by compounds 2 and 4, so there is good agreement with the experimental results where their IC50 values are in the following order: 74.28 (5) < 150 (2) < 214.10 (4), using Blind docking/virtual screening of the homology modeled protein and two different tools as Autodock Vina and Dockthor web tool that gave us predicted sites for further antifungal drug design.

Newly synthesized compounds of N-alkylated heterocyclic compounds were prepared by condensation of amine with alcohol which undergoes a reaction of SN2. These newly synthesized derivatives were characterized by spectral analysis. The objective is to prepare new potent nontoxic antimicrobial agents which are easy to synthesize and could be scaled up in pharmaceutical industries. Thirteen new heterocyclic compounds containing a pyrazole moiety were synthesized with good yields (29.79 to 99.6) and were characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and CG-MS techniques. The compounds were divided into two seriesmonoalkylated compounds (111) and tetra-alkylated compounds (12 and 13)and then evaluated for their in vitro antifungal and antibacterial activities against several fungal and bacterial strains. None of the monoalkylated compounds had antibacterial or antifungal activity. However, the two tetra-alkylated pyrazole ligands displayed strong antibacterial potential. Moreover, compound 12 was more potent against all tested bacterial strains than compound 13. Interestingly, compounds 12 and 13 acted as weak antifungal agents against Saccharomyces cerevisiae. ADME-Tox studies suggested that compounds 12 and 13 exhibit better toxicity profiles than the commercial antibiotic streptomycin. MEP studies suggested that compounds 12 and 13 have the same charge locations but differ in their values which are due to the condensed geometry of compound 13 that make it more polarizable than compound 12. Of particular interest, these different MEPs were evident in ligand protein docking, suggesting that compound 12 has better affinity with MGL enzyme than compound 13. All these findings suggested that these novel compounds represent promising antibacterial lead compounds.
