Öğe Design and various in silico studies of the novel curcumin derivatives as potential candidates against COVID-19-associated main enzymes(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2022) Alici, Hakan; Tahtaci, Hakan; Demir, KadirThe novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a highly contagious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, leading severe acute respiratory syndrome in patients. Although various antiviral drugs and their combinations have been tried so far against SARS-CoV-2 and they have shown some effectiveness, there is still a need for safe and cost-effective binding inhibitors in the fight against COVID-19. Therefore, phytochemicals in nature can be a quick solution due to their wide therapeutic spectrum and strong antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. In this context, the low toxicity, and high pharmacokinetic properties of curcumin, which is a natural phytochemical, as well as the easy synthesizing of its derivatives reveal the need for investigation of its various derivatives as inhibitors against coronaviruses. The present study focused on curcumin derivatives with reliable ADME profile and high molecular binding potency to different SARS-CoV-2 target enzymes (3CLPro, PLpro, NSP7/8/12, NSP7/8/12 +RNA, NSP15, NSP16, Spike, Spike+ACE). In the molecular docking studies, the best binding scores for the 22 proposed curcumin derivatives were obtained for the PLpro protein. Furthermore, MD simulations were performed for high-affinity ligand-PLpro protein complexes and subsequently, Lys157, Glu161, Asp164, Arg166, Glu167, Met208, Pro247, Pro248, Tyr264, Tyr273 and Asp302 residues of PLpro was deter-mined to play key role for ligand binding by Molecular Mechanics Poisson-Boltzmann Surface Area (MM-PBSA) analysis. The results of the study promise that the proposed curcumin derivatives can be potent inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2 and be converted into pharmaceutical drugs. It is also expected that the findings may provide guiding insights to future design studies for synthesizing different antiviral derivatives of phytochemicals.Öğe Design, Synthesis, Characterization, Antiproliferative Activity, and In Silico Studies of Novel Alkyl Ether Derivatives Containing 1H-1,2,4-Triazole Ring(Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, 2022) Yilmaz, Osman; Capanlar, Seval; Akkoc, Senem; Alici, Hakan; Ozcan, Ibrahim; Tahtaci, HakanIn this study, starting from 1H-1,2,4-triazole, a new series of aliphatic ether derivatives containing phenyl and 1H-1,2,4-triazole groups together were synthesized using reduction and Williamson ether synthesis mechanisms, respectively. The molecular structures of the synthesized compounds were characterized by fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), H-1 and C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (H-1 NMR and C-13 NMR), mass spectroscopy, and elemental analysis techniques. All synthesized compounds were screened against three different human cancer cell lines, including colon, lung, and liver cancer cells. Some of the compounds showed exceptionally high antiproliferative effects against all three cancer cell lines, with IC50 values much lower than the positive control drug bendamustine. In addition, molecular docking studies were performed to support the in vitro results and the interaction types and amino acids that play key roles in the binding of the compounds to enzymes were identified. Finally, the potential of these compounds to be drugs and their drug-likeness properties were evaluated by absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion-toxicity (ADMET) calculations and it was determined that the compounds could be drug candidates with the capacity to be effective and safe drugs for use in the treatment of different diseases.Öğe Design, synthesis, characterization, in vitro and in silico evaluation of novel imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles as highly potent acetylcholinesterase and non-classical carbonic anhydrase inhibitors(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2021) Askin, Sercan; Tahtaci, Hakan; Turkes, Cuneyt; Demir, Yeliz; Ece, Abdulilah; Ciftci, Gulsen Akalsn; Beydemir, SukruImidazole and thiadiazole derivatives display an extensive application in pharmaceutical chemistry, and they have been investigated as bioactive molecules for medicinal chemistry purposes. Classical carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitors are based on sulfonamide groups, but inhibiting all CA isoforms nonspecifically, thereby causing undesired side effects, is the main drawback of these types of inhibitors. Here we reported an investigation of novel 2,6-disubstituted imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives (9a-k, 10a, and 11a) and 2,5,6-trisubstituted imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives (12a-20a) that do not possess the zinc-binding sulfonamide group for the inhibition of human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) I and II isoforms and also of acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7). Imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles demonstrated low nanomolar inhibitory activity against hCA I, hCA II, and AChE (KIs are in the range of 23.44-105.50 nM, 10.32-104.70 nM, and 20.52-54.06 nM, respectively). Besides, compound 9b inhibit hCA I up to 18-fold compared to acetazolamide, while compound 10a has a 5-fold selectivity towards hCA II. The synthesized compounds were also evaluated for their cytotoxic effects on the L929 mouse fibroblast cell line. Molecular docking simulations were performed to elucidate these inhibitors' potential binding modes against hCA I and II isoforms and AChE. The novel compounds reported here can represent interesting lead compounds, and the results presented here might provide further structural guidance to discover and design more potent hCA and AChE inhibitors.Öğe Design, Synthesis, SAR and Molecular Modeling Studies of Novel Imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]Thiadiazole Derivatives as Highly Potent Antimicrobial Agents(Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, 2018) Tahtaci, Hakan; Karacik, Hatice; Ece, Abdulilah; Er, Mustafa; Seker, Mine GulIn this study, a novel series of phenyl substituted imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives were synthesized, characterized and explored for antibacterial activity against Gram-negative Escherichia coli, Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis and antifungal activity against Candida albicans. Most of the synthesized compounds exhibited remarkable antimicrobial activities, some of which being ten times more potent than positive controls. The most promising compound showed excellent activity with MIC value of 0.03g/ml against both S. aureus and B. subtilis (MIC values of positive compound Chloramphenicol are 0.4g/ml and 0.85g/ml, respectively). Furthermore, structure-activity relationship was also investigated with the help of computational tools. Some physicochemical and ADME properties of the compounds were calculated too. The combination of electronic structure calculations performed at PM6 level and molecular docking simulations using Glide extra-precision mode showed that the hydrophobic nature of keto aryl ring with no electron withdrawing substituents at para position enhances activity while electron-donating substituents at the second aryl ring is detrimental to activity.Öğe Imidazole-Derived Alkyl and Aryl Ethers: Synthesis, Characterization, In Vitro Anticancer and Antioxidant Activities, Carbonic Anhydrase I-II Inhibition Properties, and In Silico Studies(Amer Chemical Soc, 2024) Faris, Mays; Bostanci, Hayrani Eren; Ozcan, Ibrahim; Ozturk, Mustafa; Kocyigit, Umit Muhammed; Erdogan, Taner; Tahtaci, HakanImidazole derivatives display extensive applications in pharmaceutical chemistry and have been investigated as bioactive compounds for medicinal chemistry. In this study, besides the starting materials (3a-c and 4a-c), synthesis, characterization, and biological activity studies were conducted on a total of 18 compounds, nine of which are known and the other nine are original. The compounds investigated in the study are a series of alkyl (7-15) and aryl (16-24) ether derivatives bearing substituted phenyl and imidazole rings, which were characterized using various methods including H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, FT-IR analysis, elemental analysis, and mass spectroscopy. Computer-aided drug design studies have been carried out to predict the biological activities of compounds. Besides DFT calculations, the binding affinities of the compounds to EGFR, VEGFR2, FGFR1, HSP90, hCA I, and hCA II were investigated. Additionally, drug-likeness and ADME analyses were performed on the compounds. Anticancer, antioxidant, and enzyme inhibition activity tests were performed in biological activity studies on the synthesized compounds. Among the synthesized compounds, compounds 17 and 19-24 generally exhibited inhibition profiles against the widespread cytosolic hCA I isozyme with IC50 values ranging from 4.13 to 15.67 nM and cytosolic hCA II isozyme with IC50 values ranging from 5.65 to 14.84 nM. L929 (mouse fibroblast cell line) was used as the control healthy cell line, and MCF7 (breast cancer), C6 (rat glioblastoma), and HT-29 (colon cancer) cells were used in cell culture studies as cancer cell lines. Before the study on cancer cells, all compounds were examined on healthy cells, and their cytotoxicity was determined. As a result of these data, studies continued with six compounds determined to be nontoxic. On cancerous cells, it was determined that compounds 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, 4c, and 7 had cytotoxic effects on both colon cancer and brain tumors. It was found that compound 3b had a more toxic effect than cisplatin on the glioma cell line with an IC50 value of 10.721 +/- 0.38 mu M, and compound 3a had a more toxic effect on the colon cancer cell line with an IC50 value of 20.88 +/- 1.02 mu M. However, it was determined that the same compounds did not have a statistically significant effect on breast cancer. Flow cytometry studies also showed that when the IC50 dose of compound 3b was applied to the C6 cell line, the cells tended to early and late apoptosis. Additionally, it has been shown by flow cytometry that the cell cycle stops in the G0/G1 phase. A similar effect was observed in the colon cancer cell line with compound 3a. Compound 3b caused early and late apoptosis of the colon cancer cell line with the applied IC50 dose and stopped the cell cycle in the G0/G1 phase. Finally, the FRAP method studied all synthesized compounds' antioxidant effects. According to the measured antioxidant power results, it was determined that no compound had a more effective reducing power than vitamin E.Öğe An integrated approach towards the development of novel antifungal agents containing thiadiazole: synthesis and a combined similarity search, homology modelling, molecular dynamics and molecular docking study(Springeropen, 2018) Er, Mustafa; Abounakhla, Abdulati Miftah; Tahtaci, Hakan; Bawah, Ali Hasin; Cinaroglu, Suleyman Selim; Onaran, Abdurrahman; Ece, AbdulilahBackgroundThis study aims to synthesise and characterise novel compounds containing 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole and their acyl derivatives and to investigate antifungal activities. Similarity search, molecular dynamics and molecular docking were also studied to find out a potential target and enlighten the inhibition mechanism.ResultsAs a first step, 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives (compounds 3 and 4) were synthesised with high yields (81 and 84%). The target compounds (6a-n and 7a-n) were then synthesised with moderate to high yields (56-87%) by reacting 3 and 4 with various acyl chloride derivatives (5a-n). The synthesized compounds were characterized using the IR, H-1-NMR, C-13-NMR, Mass, X-ray (compound 7n) and elemental analysis techniques. Later, the in vitro antifungal activities of the synthesised compounds were determined. The inhibition zones exhibited by the compounds against the tested fungi, their minimum fungicidal activities, minimum inhibitory concentration and the lethal dose values (LD50) were determined. The compounds exhibited moderate to high levels of activity against all tested pathogens. Finally, in silico modelling was used to enlighten inhibition mechanism using ligand and structure-based methods. As an initial step, similarity search was carried out and the resulting proteins that belong to Homo sapiens were used as reference in sequence similarity search to find the corresponding amino acid sequences in target organisms. Homology modelling was used to construct the protein structure. The stabilised protein structure obtained from molecular dynamics simulation was used in molecular docking.ConclusionThe overall results presented here might be a good starting point for the identification of novel and more active compounds as antifungal agents.Öğe Novel 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles and their acyl derivatives: Synthesis, structural characterization, molecular docking studies and comparison of experimental and computational results(Elsevier Science Bv, 2016) Er, Mustafa; Isildak, Gamze; Tahtaci, Hakan; Karakurt, TuncayThis study aims to synthesize and characterize compounds containing 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole and compare experimental results to theoretical results.

First, imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivative (3) was obtained from the reaction of 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol with benzyl bromide in the presence of KOH in an ethanolic medium. In the next step, the resultant compound reacted sequentially with four substituted phenacyl bromide derivatives (4a–4d) under refluxed ethanol for 24 h to obtain substituted 2-(benzylthio)-6-phenylimidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives (5–8). Compounds (9–12) were obtained by attaching a carbonyl group to carbon number 5 of the imidazothiadiazole group in these compounds with the help of Vilsmeier–Haack reagent. The resultant compounds were reacted in an ethanolic medium to synthesize the novel (13–16) ligands by adding ethylenediamine in a 1:2 molar ratio. The Ag(I) complexes of the resultant ligands were synthesized by mixing silver acetate with the ligands in a dimethyl sulfoxide medium to obtain (17–20) complexes. All the synthesized compounds were analyzed using FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility, ICP-OES, and thermogravimetric analysis techniques. The study also investigates the in vitro cytotoxic effect of the ligands and complexes on A549 (nonsmall cell lung cancer) cells using the MTT assay and shows that the 13, 15, and 16 ligands, together with their complexes, exhibit potent cytotoxicity. In addition, in silico molecular docking simulations were conducted both to support the in vitro cytotoxicity experiments and to ascertain the active binding sites and interactions of the ligands and complexes on the EGFR receptor. The result indicates that ligands and complexes may serve as promising candidates for further investigation as anticancer agents.Öğe Synthesis and characterization of tetra-armed-thiosemicarbazone and its salen/salophen capped transition metal complexes: Investigation of their thermal and magnetic properties(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2016) Uysal, Saban; Er, Mustafa; Tahtaci, HakanIn this work, we aimed to synthesize and characterize a novel tetra-directional ligand, (2E,2E)-2,2-((((2-(1,3-bis(4-((E)-(2-carbamothioylhydrazono)methyl)phenoxy)propan-2-ylidene)propane-1,3-diyl)bis(oxy))bis(4,1-phenylene))bis(methanylylidene))bis(hydrazinecarbothioamide) (5), including thiosemicarbazone group and its novel tetra-directional-tetra-nuclear Schiff base complexes. For this purpose, we used 1,4-dibromo-2,3-bis(bromomethyl)but-2-ene (2) as starting material. 4,4-((2-(1,3-Bis(4-formylphenoxy)propan-2-ylidene)propane-1,3-diyl) bis(oxy))dibenzaldehyde (3) was synthesized by the reaction of an equivalent 1,4-dibromo-2,3-bis(bromomethyl)but-2-ene (2) and 4 equivalents of 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde. Then, compound 5 was synthesized in high yield (86%) by a condensation reaction of compound 3 with thiosemicarbazide (4). Finally, four novel tetra-nuclear Cr(III) or Fe(III) complexes of compound 5 were synthesized. The synthesized compounds were characterized using elemental analyses, H-1 NMR, Fourier transform-infrared spectrometry, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (ESI+), and thermal analyses. The metal ratios of the prepared complexes were determined using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. We also investigated their effects on the magnetic behaviors of [salen, salophen, Cr(III)/Fe(III)] capped complexes. The complexes were found to be low-spin distorted octahedral Fe(III) and distorted octahedral Cr(III), all bridged by thiosemicarbazone. [GRAPHICS]Öğe Synthesis and characterization of the Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes of 1,3,4-thiadiazole-derived ketones and secondary alcohols: thermal and magnetic properties(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Erdogan, Melih; Kiymaz, Kubra; Tahtaci, Hakan; Uysal, SabanCompounds containing both ketone and amide carbonyl groups were reduced with sodium borohydride (NaBH4). In this way, secondary alcohols, which are very important compounds for the synthesis of drugs, agricultural chemicals, food chemicals, and other chemicals, were obtained with regioselectivity. To do this, the starting compound 2-(5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)-1-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethanone (3) was obtained. Subsequently, 10 ketone derivatives (5a-j) were synthesized from the reaction of 3 with the appropriate substituted acyl halide derivatives (4a-j). Then, secondary alcohol derivatives (6a-j), which came from the regioselective reduction of the ketone derivatives (5a-j), were synthesized with NaBH4. The molecular structures of ketone and alcohol derivatives were elucidated using H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, FTIR, and MS. In the last step of the study, binuclear metal complexes of all alcohol and ketone derivatives were synthesized in DMF and characterized using FTIR and MS. The magnetic properties and thermal stability of these complexes were investigated using magnetic susceptibilities and determined using a Gouy magnetic susceptibility apparatus and a TGA analyzer, respectively. The complexes are distorted octahedral low-spin (S = 3/2) Co(II) and distorted octahedral (S = 1) Ni(II). Finally, the metal ratios of the complexes were determined by using ICP-AES.
