A series of novel 2-substituted quinoline-4-carboxylic acids was synthesized by Doebner reaction starting from freely available protocatechuic aldehyde and vanillin precursors. Human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (hDHODH) was recognised as a clear molecular target for these heterocycles. All compounds were also tested for their antiproliferative potential against three cancer cells (MCF-7, A549, A375) and one normal cell line (HaCaT) to evaluate the selective cytotoxicity. Quinoline derivatives 3f and 3g were identified as potent hDHODH inhibitors while 3k and 3l demonstrated high cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 and A375 cells and good selectivity. In addition, the logD7.4 values obtained by the experimental method were found to be in the range from ?1.15 to 1.69. The chemical structures of all compounds were confirmed by IR, NMR and elemental analysis. The compounds pharmacology on the molecular level was revealed by means of molecular docking, highlighting the structural differences that distinguish highly active from medium and low active hDHODH inhibitors.

Plant bacterial diseases cause tremendous decreases in crop yield and quality, and there is a lack of highly effective and low-risk antibacterial agents. A series of novel pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidinone mesoionic compounds containing vanillin moieties were synthesized, and the application of these mesoionic compounds as plant antibacterial agents was reported here for the first time. The bioassay results revealed that the mesoionic compounds had good antibacterial activity. Of these compounds, compound 11 showed excellent in vitro activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, with an EC50 value of 1.1 μg/mL, which was substantially better than that of bismerthiazol (92.7 μg/mL) and thiodiazole copper (105.4 μg/mL). Moreover, greenhouse condition trials indicated that the protective and curative activities of compound 11 against rice bacterial leaf blight were 75.12 and 72.04%, respectively, which were better than those of bismerthiazol (62.24 and 50.83%, respectively) and thiodiazole copper (53.35 and 65.04%, respectively). These results provide a basis for the application of mesoionic vanillin moieties as new antibacterial agents.

Two homologous series of unsymmetrical alkylated chalcones and 3,5-diaryl isoxazoles, consisting of 20 members, with various n-alkyl bromides (n=2?7, 10, 12, 14, 16) have been synthesized and studied for their liquid crystalline property. Simple strategy was employed to achieve the target materials. Flexibility in the synthesized molecules is provided by attaching straight alkoxy chains, where one terminal group is fixed and other terminal group is varied. The synthesized compounds were characterized on the basis of Mass, IR and NMR spectroscopy. The stability and the range of the mesophases increased with the length of the chain on the isoxazoles. The melting point, transition temperatures and enantiotropic liquid crystal morphologies were determined by polarizing optical microscopy (POM) in conjunction with a hot stage and by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
