Synthesis, bioactivity, molecular docking and POM analyses of novel substituted thieno[2,3-b]thiophenes and related congeners.

ABSTRACT: Several series of novel substituted thienothiophene derivatives were synthesized by reacting the synthone 1 with different reagents. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by means of different spectroscopic methods such as IR, NMR, mass spectrometry and by elemental analyses. The new compounds displayed significant activity against both Gram-positive and Gram negative bacteria, in addition to fungi. Molecular docking and POM analyses show the crucial role and impact of substituents on bioactivity and indicate the unfavorable structural parameters in actual drug design: more substitution doesn't guaranty more efficiency in bioactivity.

Project description:BackgroundThe high prevalence of skin hyperpigmentation makes it necessary to search for remedies that could hinder this process. Among such substances, tyrosinase inhibitors can be distinguished, which may be pyrimidine derivatives.ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate new compounds with anti-tyrosinase activity in 2-substituted tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4(3H)-one by an in vitro analysis and investigating their molecular docking.MethodsA molecular docking was performed using AutoDock 4.0 with the 3-dimensional structure of tyrosinase of the fungus Agaricus bisporus from the Protein Data Bank (PDB; rcsb.org) with identification number 2Y9X. A synthesis of 2-substituted tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4(3H)-one was carried out during the heterocyclization reaction of azomethine derivatives of 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxamide in glacial acetic acid with the addition of dimethyl sulfoxide. Tyrosinase activity was determined in vitro by the spectrophotometric method.ResultsMolecular docking data suggest the feasibility of synthesizing 2-substituted tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4(3H)-one as possible tyrosinase inhibitors. Of particular interest are compounds with hydroxy groups in the radical. Next, pharmacological screening showed that the leading compound is 4g. It is likely that metal-ligand interactions are the main interactions in the active site of tyrosinase because kojic acid, hydroquinone, and lactic acid (reference compounds), as well as compounds with only hydroxy groups in phenyl substituents (4b, 4c, and 4g), have the greatest anti-tyrosinase activity.ConclusionsAs a result of molecular docking studies, the feasibility of synthesizing 2-substituted tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4(3H)-one as potential tyrosinase inhibitors was justified. 2-Substituted tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4(3H)-one was obtained using new synthesis conditions. The leading compound is 4g containing a fragment of 2,4-dihydroxybenzene.

Project description:In this work, new thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-derived compounds possessing potential anticancer activities were designed and synthesized to target VEGFR-2. The thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives were tested in vitro for their abilities to inhibit VEGFR-2 and to prevent cancer cell growth in two types of cancer cells, MCF-7 and HepG2. Compound 18 exhibited the strongest anti-VEGFR-2 potential with an IC50 value of 0.084 μM. Additionally, it displayed excellent proliferative effects against MCF-7 and HepG2 cancer cell lines, with IC50 values of 10.17 μM and 24.47 μM, respectively. Further studies revealed that compound 18 induced cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase and promoted apoptosis in MCF-7 cancer cells. Apoptosis was stimulated by compound 18 by increasing BAX (3.6-fold) and decreasing Bcl-2 (3.1-fold). Additionally, compound 18 significantly raised the levels of caspase-8 (2.6-fold) and caspase-9 (5.4-fold). Computational techniques were also used to investigate the VEGFR-2-18 complex at a molecular level. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations were performed to assess the structural and energetic features of the complex. The protein-ligand interaction profiler analysis identified the 3D interactions and binding conformation of the VEGFR-2-18 complex. Essential dynamics (ED) study utilizing principal component analysis (PCA) described the protein dynamics of the VEGFR-2-18 complex at various spatial scales. Bi-dimensional projection analysis confirmed the proper binding of the VEGFR-2-18 complex. In addition, the DFT studies provided insights into the structural and electronic properties of compound 18. Finally, computational ADMET and toxicity studies were conducted to evaluate the potential of the thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives for drug development. The results of the study suggested that compound 18 could be a promising anticancer agent that may provide effective treatment options for cancer patients. Furthermore, the computational techniques used in this research provided valuable insights into the molecular interactions of the VEGFR-2-18 complex, which may guide future drug design efforts. Overall, this study highlights the potential of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives as a new class of anticancer agents and provides a foundation for further research in this area.
