Abstract

A series of new of furan derivatised [1,4] benzothiazepine analogues were synthesized starting from 1-(furan-2-yl)ethanone. 1-(Furan-2-yl)ethanone was converted into chalcones by its reaction with various aromatic aldehydes, then were reacted with 2-aminobenzenethiol in acidic conditions to obtain the title compounds in good yields. The synthesized new compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, Mass spectral studies and elemental analyses. All the new compounds were evaluated for their in vitro VRV-PL-8a and H+/K+ ATPase inhibitor properties. Preliminary studies revealed that, some molecules amongst the designed series showed promising VRV-PL-8a and H+/K+ ATPase inhibitor properties. Further, rigid body docking studies were performed to understand possible docking sites of the molecules on the target proteins and the mode of binding. This finding presents a promising series of lead molecules that can serve as prototypes for the treatment of inflammatory related disorder that can mitigate the ulcer inducing side effect shown by other NSAIDs.

Keywords: 1-(Furan-2-yl)ethanone; Anti-inflammatory; Antidiabetic; Benzothiazepines; Chalcones.
