Sulfaguanidine 500mg tablets

Herein, a series of novel hybrid sulfaguanidine moieties, bearing 2-cyanoacrylamide 2a–d, pyridine-2-one 3–10, and 2-imino-2H-chromene-3-carboxamide 11, 12 derivatives, were synthesized, and their structure confirmed by spectral data and elemental analysis. All the synthesized compounds showed moderate to good antimicrobial activity against eight pathogens. The most promising six derivatives, 2a, 2b, 2d, 3a, 8, and 11, revealed to be best in inhibiting bacterial and fungal growth, thus showing bactericidal and fungicidal activity. These derivatives exhibited moderate to potent inhibition against DNA gyrase and DHFR enzymes, with three derivatives 2d, 3a, and 2a demonstrating inhibition of DNA gyrase, with IC50 values of 18.17–23.87 µM, and of DHFR, with IC50 values of 4.33–5.54 µM; their potency is near to that of the positive controls. Further, the six derivatives exhibited immunomodulatory potential and three derivatives, 2d, 8, and 11, were selected for further study and displayed an increase in spleen and thymus weight and enhanced the activation of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes. Finally, molecular docking and some AMED studies were performed.

Pharmaceutical cocrystals, a type of multicomponent crystalline material incorporating two or more molecular and/or ionic compounds connected by noncovalent interactions (such as hydrogen bonds, π-π interactions, and halogen bonds), are attracting increasing attention in crystal engineering. Sulfaguanidine (SGD), one of the most frequently used sulfonamide compounds, was chosen as a model compound in this work to further investigate the hydrogen bond interactions in cocrystals, since it possesses various hydrogen bond donor and acceptor sites. Five cocrystals of SGD, synthesized successfully by slurry and slow evaporation methods, were fully characterized by thermal analysis, X-ray techniques, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. To gain insight into the nature of hydrogen-bonding interactions, theoretical calculations including the analysis of Hirshfeld surface, MEPS (molecular electrostatic potential surface), and QTAIM (quantum theory of atoms in molecules) were conducted. The results are a part of a systematic study of cocrystals of sulfonamides that aims to establish synthon hierarchies in cocrystals containing molecules with multiple hydrogen-bonding functional groups.

The biological benefits of trisubstituted 1,3,5-triazine derivatives include their ability to reduce inflammation and fight cancer. A unique series of sulfonamide-triazine hybrid molecules were produced chemically by synthesizing triazine derivatives utilizing the usual nucleophilic aromatic substitution of cyanuric chloride via the solvent-free/neat fusion method. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopic analyses were used to identify novel trisubstituted synthetic compounds. The synthesized compounds have a moderate inhibition percentage when tested at 100 μM against the phosphoinositol 3-kinases (PI3Kα) enzyme; compounds 20 and 34 showed 46 and 68% anti-PI3Kα activity, respectively. To comprehend the anticipated interactions, the most successful compounds were subsequently docked into a PI3Kα protein's binding site (PDB code: 6OAC, resolution: 3.15 Å). The final synthetic compounds' anticancer activity was tested on the breast (MCF-7) and lung (A549) cancer cell lines at doses of 100 and 50 μM for additional evaluation of anticancer characteristics. The IC50 values for the sulfaguanidine-triazine derivatives 27, 28, 29, 31, and 35 ranged from 14.8 to 33.2 μM, showing that compounds containing sulfaguanidine and diethylamine in their structures significantly inhibited the activity. Compound 34 could be a promising lead compound for developing new target-selected anticancer compounds with low toxicity and high selectivity.
