A convenient and efficient synthetic protocol for the new selenadiazole. Thiadiazole and diazaphosphole derivatives incorporating a pyridazine moiety originating from 4-(4-aminophenyl)-4-oxobutanoic acid (1) were described. All newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity using the disk diffusion method, and their cytotoxicity was evaluated against brine shrimp lethality bioassay. Using density functional theory (DFT), the frontier molecular orbital (FMO) and molecular electrostatic potential (MEPS) were studied to estimate the chemical reactivity and kinetic stability of each structure. Therefore, global descriptor parameters like electronegativity (χ), chemical hardness (η), and global softness (σ) were calculated. Consequently, the attained results were compared with the experimental data of the biological activity of the studied structures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A highly efficient and versatile synthetic approach for the synthesis of 4-(pyren-1-ylmethyl)-1-(d-glycosyloxy) phthalazine nucleosides 11a,b, 13, β-S-nucleosides 16, 18, 20, and acyclo C-nucleosides 23a,b, 24, 25 and 27a–f was described and fully characterized. Furthermore, a series of desired new nucleoside analogues containing Se of 4-(pyren-1-ylmethyl) phthalazine-1(2H)-selenone 28–33 were synthesized. The structures of all reported compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, MS and elemental analysis. All compounds have been screened for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. Maximum activity was shown by 20 and 33a comparable to the standard drugs with lower toxicity. The cytotoxicity of the selected compound was measured and evaluated. The energy gap between the highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital was calculated using theoretical computations to reflect the chemical reactivity and kinetic stability of the synthesized compounds. Using density functional theory (DFT), electronic parameters such as the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) and the molecular electrostatic potential (MEPS) were calculated. On the basis of different studied structures, these properties were computed in order to elucidate the chemical reactivity and the kinetic stability. Obviously, the band gap energy (Eg) of structures studied reveals that the lowest band gap obtained for the structure 16-a indicates that it has the highest chemical reactivity and lowest kinetic stability.
