Derivatives of thiazole-pyrazole fused benzo-coumarin compounds were successfully synthesized and characterized, followed by a comprehensive spectroscopic investigation on various photophysical properties in different media. The multipronged approach using steady state and time resolved fluorescence spectroscopy pointed out the impact of substitution in the estimated spectroscopic and other physicochemical properties of the systems. Further, the evaluation of anti-acetylcholinesterase (anti-AChE) activity yielded significant insight into the therapeutic potential of the synthesized coumarinyl compounds for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The findings revealed a non-competitive mode of inhibition mechanism, with an estimated IC value of 67.72 ± 2.00 nM observed for one of the investigated systems as AChE inhibitor. Notably, this value is even lower than that of an FDA-approved AD drug Donepezil (DON), indicating the enhanced potency of the coumarin derivatives in inhibiting AChE. Interestingly, significant diminution in inhibition was observed in presence of human serum albumin (HSA) as evidenced by the relative increase in IC value by 8 ∼ 39 % in different cases, which emphasized the role of albumin proteins to control therapeutic efficacies of potential medications. In-depth spectroscopic and in-silico analysis quantified the nature of interactions of the investigated systems with HSA and AChE. Overall, the outcomes of this study provide significant understanding into the biophysical characteristics of novel thiazole-pyrazole fused benzo-coumarin systems, which could aid in the development of new cholinergic agents for the treatment of AD and materials based on coumarin motifs.
噻唑-吡唑并苯并香豆素衍生物成功合成并进行了表征,随后在不同介质中对各种光物理性质进行了全面的光谱研究。使用稳态和时间分辨荧光光谱的多管齐下的方法指出了取代对系统估计的光谱和其他物理化学性质的影响。此外,对乙酰胆碱酯酶(AChE)抑制活性的评估深入了解了合成香豆素化合物治疗阿尔茨海默病(AD)的治疗潜力。研究结果表明,抑制机制为非竞争性模式,在所研究的系统之一中观察到 AChE 抑制剂的估计 IC 值为 67.72±2.00 nM。值得注意的是,该值甚至低于 FDA 批准的 AD 药物多奈哌齐(DON),表明香豆素衍生物在抑制 AChE 方面的增强效力。有趣的是,在人血清白蛋白(HSA)存在下观察到抑制作用明显减弱,这从不同情况下 IC 值相对增加 8∼39%证明了这一点,这强调了白蛋白蛋白在控制潜在药物治疗效果方面的作用。深入的光谱和计算分析定量了所研究系统与 HSA 和 AChE 的相互作用性质。总的来说,这项研究的结果提供了对新型噻唑-吡唑并苯并香豆素系统的生物物理特性的重要理解,这有助于开发用于治疗 AD 的新型胆碱能药物和基于香豆素基序的材料。
