Novel N-thioamide analogues of pyrazolylpyrimidine based piperazine: Design, synthesis, characterization, in-silico molecular docking study and biological evaluation

Synthesis, Kinetics and Computational Explorations of 4-Phenylpiperazine Bearing N-(Aryl)-3-substituted-benzamides as Auspicious Tyrosinase Inhibitors

In the aimed research study, a new series of N-(aryl)-3-[(4-phenyl-1-piperazinyl)methyl]benzamides was synthesized, which was envisaged as tyrosinase inhibitor. The structures of these newly designed molecules were verified by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, EI-MS and CHN analysis data. These molecules were screened against tyrosinase and their inhibitory activity explored that these 3-substituted-benzamides exhibit good to excellent potential, comparative to the standard. The Kinetics mechanism was investigated through Lineweaver-Burk plots which depicted that molecules inhibited this enzyme in a competitive mode. Moreover, molecular docking was also performed to determine the binding interaction of all synthesized molecules (ligands) with the active site of tyrosinase enzyme and the results showed that most of the ligands exhibited efficient binding energy values. Therefore, it is anticipated that these molecules might serve as auspicious therapeutic scaffolds for treatment of the tyrosinase associated skin disorders.

Hybrids Diazine: Recent Advancements in Modern Antimicrobial Therapy

Nowadays, antimicrobial therapies have become a very challenging issue because of a large diversity of reasons such as antimicrobial resistance, over consumption and misuse of antimicrobial agents, etc. A modern, actual and very useful approach in antimicrobial therapy is represented by the use of hybrid drugs, especially combined five and six-membered ring azaheterocycles. In this review, we present an overview of the recent advanced data from the last five years in the field of hybrid diazine compounds with antimicrobial activity. In this respect, we highlight here essential data concerning the synthesis and antimicrobial activity of the main classes of diazine hybrids: pyridazine, pyrimidine, pyrazine, and their fused derivatives.
