Antioxidant activity of a series of previously described 5-amino-N-(iododi(per)fluoroalkyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamides 3a-r, their synthetic precursors 5-amino-N-allyl-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamides 1a-g, and their deamination products N-(3-di(per)fluoroalkyl-2-iodo-n-propyl)-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamides 4a-e was investigated in vitro using DPPH test and ascorbic acid as a standard reference. It was established that compounds 3a-r inhibit DPPH free radicals in moderate to high values (50.9–97.6%). The effect of substituents in the position 1 of the 1,2,3-triazole nucleus, fluoroalkyl groups and amino groups on the level of antioxidant activity was studied in detail. Reactivity and electrostatic surface potential were evaluated for the most active carboxamides 3a,g,r using the DFT method, and molecular docking was studied in the NADPH oxidase protein model.

The correlation between coefficients from Dimroth equations and descriptors of global electron density transfer was explored based on the data available in the recent literature. We established that the obtained results should be very usable for the interpretation of the organic reactivity and molecular mechanisms.

Continuing the search for new antimicrobial agents with antibiofilm activity, bis-quaternary ammonium compounds based on natural (3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)acetic acid derivatives were synthesized. Antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of ammonium salts was evaluated in vitro against S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa, including antibiotic-resistant strains. Bis-quaternary ammonium salts 1, 5, and 6 showed antibacterial activity with MIC values ranging from 25.0 to 200.0 μg/mL. Notably, these compounds demonstrated a high level of antibiofilm activity. Ammonium salts 1 and 6 reduced biofilm formation against S. aureus ATCC 25923, P. aeruginosa PA01, E. coli ATCC 25922, and antibiotic-resistant P. aeruginosa by 92 - 97% at a concentration of 100.0 μg/mL. In addition, compounds 1 and 6 inhibited the biofilm formation of antibiotic-resistant E. coli isolate by 60% and 63%, respectively.

The study of cycloaddition reactions between cyclopenta-1,3-diene and benzyl-acrylate, as well as benzyl-2-fluoroacrylate with and without the catalyst (TiCl4), was conducted using MEDT. The results of the energy profiles suggest that these reactions are stereoselective, meaning that they favor the formation of certain stereoisomers over others. Furthermore, the addition of TiCl4 as a catalyst appears to enhance the selectivity of these reactions, which is in line with experimental observations. Additionally, a docking study was carried out to predict the effect of stereochemistry and the presence of specific atoms, such as fluorine, on their ability to bind to viral proteins responsible for SARS-Covid-19 and HIV. Moreover, the notable affinity of Ligand 4 for HIV renders it a pivotal contender for extended research, possibly paving the way for enhanced antiretroviral drugs. Similarly, the encouraging affinity demonstrated by Ligand 1 towards the Covid-19 protein highlights its promise for Covid-19 drug development.

We have synthesized all drugs using previously identified active pharmacophores through molecular hybridization. This paper explains a simple method for making N-((2-(piperazine-1-yl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-1-yl)methyl)aniline analogs 5(A–L) through steps. We used mass spectrometry, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR to do a spectrum analysis to confirm the structure of the synthesized end products. We evaluated all synthesized compounds for their in vitro antimicrobial, antimalarial, and antitubercular activities. We have also examined the research on structure-activity relationships (SAR). Target chemicals demonstrate significant effectiveness against bacteria, fungal diseases, and malaria.
