Herein we report the synthesis of organic selenide-based maleanilic and succinanilic acids in good yields (up to 95%). Their structural identities were elucidated by spectroscopic techniques (e.g., IR, 1H- & 13C-NMR, MS). The ADMET analysis, molecule electrostatic potential map, DFT, frontier molecular orbital used study organoselenium compounds’ pharmacokinetics, drug-likeness characteristics, geometries, chemical electronic properties. Moreover, a docking tool was employed investigate selenides’ ability inhibit SARS-CoV-2 Mpro target (PDB: 7BFB). Within this context, selenides exhibited promising binding affinities receptor following order (12 > 11 10 9 7 8). Furthermore, dynamics simulations also carried out for 200 ns evaluate exact behavior most active compound (12) within pocket compared with its co-crystallized inhibitor (Co).

Published: Dec. 16, 2022

Telomerase is an outstanding biological target for cancer treatment. BIBR1532 a non-nucleoside selective telomerase inhibitor; however, it experiences ineligible pharmacokinetics. Herein, we aimed to design new BIBR1532-based analogues as promising inhibitors. Therefore, two novel series of pyridazine-linked cyclopenta[b]thiophene (8a-f) and tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene (9a-f) were synthesized. A quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was utilized investigate the inhibitory activity candidates. Notably, 8e 9e exhibited best inhibition profiles. Moreover, showed strong antitumor effects against both MCF-7 A549 cell lines. The on cycle apoptosis measured. Besides, evaluated its in vivo using solid Ehrlich carcinoma. reduction tumor weight volume greater than doxorubicin. Also, molecular docking ADME studies performed. Finally, SAR study conducted gain further insights into different potentials upon variable structural modifications.
