1-(2-Hydroxy-5-((trimethylsilyl)ethynyl)phenyl)ethanone based α,ß-unsaturated derivatives an alternate to non-sulfonamide carbonic anhydrase II inhibitors, synthesis via Sonogashira coupling, binding analysis, Lipinsk's rule validation.

A novel series of silyl-yne containing chalcone derivatives 5a-5j was synthesized by exploiting Sonogashira coupling reaction and Claisen-Schimdt condensation reaction. The synthesized derivative were characterized by spectroscopic and elemental analysis. The selective inhibition of carbonic anhydrases is considered critical in the field of medicinal chemistry because carbonic anhydrases exits in several isoforms. Synthesized compounds were subjected to carbonic anhydrase -II assay. Except 5j, the other derivatives exhibited better potential than standard acetazolamide. Compound 5e was found to be potent derivative in the series with IC50 value 0.054 ±â€¯0.001 µM. Binding analysis revealed that most potent derivative 5e binds in the active site of CA-II and single π-π stacking interaction was observed between ring structure of ligand and Phe129 having bond length 4.90 Å. Pharmacokinetics elicited that compounds obey Lipinski's rule and show significant drug score.

Synthesis of sulfadiazinyl acyl/aryl thiourea derivatives as calf intestinal alkaline phosphatase inhibitors, pharmacokinetic properties, lead optimization, Lineweaver-Burk plot evaluation and binding analysis.

To seek the new medicinal potential of sulfadiazine drug, the free amino group of sulfadiazine was exploited to obtain acyl/aryl thioureas using simple and straightforward protocol. Acyl/aryl thioureas are well recognized bioactive pharmacophore containing moieties. A new series (4a-4j) of sulfadiazine derived acyl/aryl thioureas was synthesized and characterized through spectroscopic and elemental analysis. The synthesized derivatives 4a-4j were subjected to calf intestinal alkaline phosphatase (CIAP) activity. The derivative 4a-4j showed better inhibition potential compared to standard monopotassium phosphate (MKP). The compound 4c exhibited higher potential in the series with IC50 0.251 ±â€¯0.012 µM (standard KH2PO4 4.317 ±â€¯0.201 µM). Lineweaver-Burk plots revealed that most potent derivative 4c inhibition CIAP via mixed type pathway. Pharmacological investigations showed that synthesized compounds 4a-4j obey Lipinsk's rule. ADMET parameters evaluation predicted that these molecule show significant lead like properties with minimum possible toxicity and can serve as templates in drug designing. The synthetic compounds show none mutagenic and irritant behavior. Molecular docking analysis showed that compound 4c interacts with Asp273, His317 and Arg166 amino acid residues.
