D-Alanyl-D-alanine ligase (Ddl) is a validated and attractive target among the bacterial enzymes involved in peptidoglycan biosynthesis. In the present work, we investigated the pharmacomodulations of the benzoylthiosemicarbazide scaffold to identify new Ddl inhibitors with antibacterial potency. Five novel series of thiosemicarbazide analogues, 1,2,4-thiotriazole-3-thiones, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles, phenylthiosemicarbazones, diacylthiosemicarbazides and thioureas were synthesized via straightforward procedures, then tested against Ddl and on susceptible or resistant bacterial strains. Among these, the thiosemicarbazone and thiotriazole were identified as the most promising scaffolds with Ddl inhibition potency in the micromolar range. Antimicrobial evaluation of salicylaldehyde-4(N)-(3,4-dichlorophenyl) thiosemicarbazone 33, one of the best compounds in our study, revealed interesting antimicrobial activities with values of 3.12–6.25 μM (1.06–2.12 μg/mL) against VRE strains and 12.5–25.0 μM (4.25–8.50 μg/mL) towards MRSA and VRSA strains. A detailed mechanistic study was conducted on the Ddl inhibitors 4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-5-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione 20 and compound 33, and revealed a bactericidal effect at 5 × MIC concentration after 7 h and 24 h, respectively, and a bacteriostatic effect at 1 × MIC or 2 × MIC without any sign of bacterial membrane disruption at these lower concentrations. Finally, 20 and 33 were proved to target Ddl in bacterio via intracellular LC-MS dosage of D-Ala, L-Ala and D-Ala-D-Ala. Although, at this stage, our results indicate that other mechanisms might be involved to explain the antimicrobial potency of our compounds, their ability to inhibit the growth of strains resistant to usual antibiotics, as well as strains that express alternative ligases, sets the stage for the development of new antimicrobial agents potentially less sensitive to resistance mechanisms.

A series of diethyl-2, 6-dimethyl-4-phenyl-1, 4-dihydropyridine-3, 5-dicarboxylate derivative coupled to 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole-5-thiones and 1, 2, 4-triazole-5-thiones moieties at C2, C6 positions of 1, 4-dihydropyridine ring system was prepared. This linkage was carried out by the reaction of 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole-5-thiones and 1, 2, 4-triazole-5-thiones with 2, 6-dibromomethyl-3, 5-diethoxycarbonyl-4-phenyl-1, 4-dihydropyridine in the presence of potassium carbonate as a weak base and dry acetone as the solvent. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectral data, elemental analysis and FAB-MS. The synthesized compounds were tested for their antimicrobial and antifungal activity against Escherichia coli and Aspergillus fumigatus in vitro in comparison with Enrofloxacin and Amphotericin as the reference drugs which are normally used for treating such infections. The synthetic compounds showed different inhibition zones against tested bacteria and fungi. Compound 8d showed more antagonistic activity against E. coli and A. fumigatus.

A series of 1,2,4-triazole-based compounds was designed as potential antibacterial agents using molecular hybridization approach. The target compounds (23-44) were synthesized by Mannich reaction of 1,2,4-triazole-3-thione derivatives with ciprofloxacin (
