Molecular hybridization: Novel methodology for the investigation of biological active heterocyclic moieties

olecular hybridization is a strategy of rational design
of ligands or prototypes based on the recognition of
pharmacophoric sub-units in the molecular structure of two
or more known bioactive derivatives which, through the
adequate fusion of these sub-units, lead to the design of new
hybrid architectures. Hybrid drugs are basically designed to
counterbalance the known side effects associated with the
other hybrid part or to amplify its effect through action on
another bio target or to interact with multiple targets as one
single molecule lowering the risk of drug-drug interactions
and minimizing the drug resistance. Heterocyclic and fused
heterocyclic compounds for chemical classes have been
identified throughmolecular biology, molecularmodelling, drug
designing, empirical screening and rational drug development
for evaluation of anticancer agents during the past decades.
Purine, quinazoline, s-triazine, imidazopyrazine, benzimidazole
and naphthalimide aremost pervasive heterocyclic ring systems
found in nature and are pharmaceutically important classes of
compounds. Inmedicinal chemistry, thesemotifs have attracted
a great deal of research interest due to their preponderance
in pharmaceutically indispensable compounds. Thus, new
hybrids molecules by the combination of imidazopyrazine and
benzimidazole as well as naphthalimide and benzimidazole
have been synthesized. These hybrid molecules are then
evaluated in vitro for 60 human cancer cell lines for one dose
and five doses. The mechanism of possible activity of these
compounds is further evaluated with DNA for their interaction
studies using UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopy.
