Molecular docking and dynamics of Nickel-Schiff base complexes for inhibiting ?-lactamase of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, multidrug-resistance has become a primary concern in the treatment and management of tuberculosis, an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this context, searching new anti-tuberculosis agents particularly targeting the ?-lactamase (BlaC) is reported to be promising as this enzyme is one of the key player in the development of multidrug resistance. This study reports the design of some Nickel (Ni) based tetradentate N2O2 Schiff bases, employing density functional theory. All analogs are optimized at B3LYP/SDD level of theory. Dipole moment, electronic energy, enthalpy, Gibbs free energy, HOMO-LUMO gap, and softness of these modified drugs are also investigated. Molecular interactions between designed ligands and BlaC have been analyzed by molecular docking approach, followed by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. All designed compounds show low HOMO-LUMO gap, while addition of halogen increases the dipole moment of the compounds. Docking and MD simulation investigations reveal that the designed compounds are more potent than standard inhibitor, where Ile117, Pro290, Arg236 and Thr253 residues of BlaC are found to play important role in the ligand binding. Through MD simulation study, the best binding compound is also observed to form stable complex by increasing the protein rigidness. The ADME/T analysis suggests that modified drugs are less toxic and shows an improved pharmacokinetic properties than that of the standard drug. These results further confirm the ability of Ni-directed Schiff bases to bind simultaneously to the active site of BlaC and support them as potential candidates for the future treatment of tuberculosis disease.

Project description:The kinetic and thermodynamic ligand exchange dynamics are important considerations in the rational design of metal-based therapeutics and therefore, require detailed investigation. Co(III) Schiff base complex derivatives of bis(acetylacetone)ethylenediimine [acacen] have been found to be potent enzyme and transcription factor inhibitors. These complexes undergo solution exchange of labile axial ligands. Upon dissociation, Co(III) irreversibly interacts with specific histidine residues of a protein, and consequently alters structure and causes inhibition. To guide the rational design of next generation agents, understanding the mechanism and dynamics of the ligand exchange process is essential. To investigate the lability, pH stability, and axial ligand exchange of these complexes in the absence of proteins, the pD- and temperature-dependent axial ligand substitution dynamics of a series of N-heterocyclic [Co(acacen)(X)(2)](+) complexes [where X = 2-methylimidazole (2MeIm), 4-methylimidazole (4MeIm), ammine (NH(3)), N-methylimidazole (NMeIm), and pyridine (Py)] were characterized by NMR spectroscopy. The pD stability was shown to be closely related to the nature of the axial ligand with the following trend toward aquation: 2MeIm > NH(3) ≫ 4MeIm > Py > Im > NMeIm. Reaction of each [Co(III)(acacen)(X)(2)](+) derivative with 4MeIm showed formation of a mixed ligand Co(III) intermediate via a dissociative ligand exchange mechanism. The stability of the mixed ligand adduct was directly correlated to the pD-dependent stability of the starting Co(III) Schiff base with respect to [Co(acacen)(4MeIm)(2)](+). Crystal structure analysis of the [Co(acacen)(X)(2)](+) derivatives confirmed the trends in stability observed by NMR spectroscopy. Bond distances between the Co(III) and the axial nitrogen atoms were longest in the 2MeIm derivative as a result of distortion in the planar tetradentate ligand, and this was directly correlated to axial ligand lability and propensity toward exchange.

Project description:BackgroundThe oxidative transformation of benzoin to benzil has been accomplished by the use of a wide variety of reagents or catalysts and different reaction procedures. The conventional oxidizing agents yielded mainly benzaldehyde or/and benzoic acid and only a trace amount of benzil. The limits of practical utilization of these reagents involves the use of stoichiometric amounts of corrosive acids or toxic metallic reagents, which in turn produce undesirable waste materials and required high reaction temperatures.In recent years, vanadium complexes have attracted much attention for their potential utility as catalysts for various types of reactions.ResultsActive and selective catalytic systems of new unsymmetrical oxovanadium(IV) Schiff base complexes for the oxidation of benzoin is reported. The Schiff base ligands are derived between 2-aminoethanol and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde (H2L1) or 3-ethoxy salicylaldehyde (H2L3); and 2-aminophenol and 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde (H2L2) or 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde (H2L4). The unsymmetrical Schiff bases behave as tridentate dibasic ONO donor ligands. Reaction of these Schiff base ligands with oxovanadyl sulphate afforded the mononuclear oxovanadium(IV) complexes (VIVOLx.H2O), which are characterized by various physico-chemical techniques.The catalytic oxidation activities of these complexes for benzoin were evaluated using H2O2 as an oxidant. The best reaction conditions are obtained by considering the effect of solvent, reaction time and temperature. Under the optimized reaction conditions, VOL4 catalyst showed high conversion (>99%) with excellent selectivity to benzil (~100%) in a shorter reaction time compared to the other catalysts considered.ConclusionFour tridentate ONO type Schiff base ligands were synthesized. Complexation of these ligands with vanadyl(IV) sulphate leads to the formation of new oxovanadium(IV) complexes of type VIVOL.H2O.Elemental analyses and spectral data of the free ligands and their oxovanadium(IV) complexes were found to be in good agreement with their structures, indicating high purity of all the compounds.Oxovanadium complexes were screened for the oxidation of benzoin to benzil using H2O2 as oxidant. The effect of time, solvent and temperature were optimized to obtain maximum yield. The catalytic activity results demonstrate that these catalytic systems are both highly active and selective for the oxidation of benzoin under mild reaction conditions.
