    Abstract:
    In an effort to establish new drug candidates with improved antimicrobial and anticancer activities, we report here synthesis, molecular modeling, and in vitro biological evaluation of novel substituted N-amino phthalamide derivatives (3a-b, 4a-b, 5a-j, and 6). Structures of the newly synthesized compounds were described by IR, (1)H &(13)CNMR and LC-MS spectral data. The novel compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against four types of Gm+ve and two for Gm-ve types, and antifungal activity against three fungi microorganisms by well diffusion method. Of these novel compounds, Schiff bases showed mostly promising antibacterial activity compared to reference drugs. A successful step was done for explanation of their mode of action through molecular docking of most active molecules at DNA gyrase B enzyme and further were biologically tested. Moreover, the antiproliferative activity was tested against two human carcinoma cell lines (Human colon carcinoma (HCT-116) and human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7)) showing promising anticancer activity compared to doxorubicin drug. The data from structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis revealed that the lypophilic properties of these compounds might be essential parameter for their activity and suggest that 2-amino phthalamide scaffold derivatives 5g and 5h exhibited good antimicrobial and anticancer activities and might used as leads for further optimization.
