This research work details the use of a molecular hybridization technique to create a library of four series of hydrazineyl-linked imidazo[1,2-]pyrimidine-thiazole derivatives. The structure of one of the final products, K2, was validated using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Twenty-six novel hybrid molecules (K1-K26) were synthesized and tested for activity against the H37Rv strain. Three compounds (K1, K2, and K3) demonstrated significant inhibitory efficacy, with a MIC value of 1.6 μg mL. The target compounds also showed significant antibacterial activity against four bacterial strains, namely , , , and . In cytotoxicity studies using VERO cells, the potent -TB compounds (K1, K2, and K3) showed non-toxic profiles. Furthermore, ADME assessment results, molecular docking (against InhA and CYP121), and DFT studies revealed the active compounds' significant potential as scaffolds for novel antitubercular medicines.
本研究工作详细介绍了一种分子杂交技术的应用,以创建一个由四个系列的肼基连接的咪唑并[1,2 - ]嘧啶 - 噻唑衍生物组成的文库。使用单晶X射线衍射对最终产物之一K2的结构进行了验证。合成了26种新型杂化分子(K1 - K26),并测试了它们对H37Rv菌株的活性。三种化合物(K1、K2和K3)表现出显著的抑制效果,最低抑菌浓度(MIC)值为1.6 μg/mL。目标化合物对四种细菌菌株,即 、 、 和 也表现出显著的抗菌活性。在使用VERO细胞进行的细胞毒性研究中,强效抗结核化合物(K1、K2和K3)显示出无毒特征。此外,药物代谢动力学(ADME)评估结果、分子对接(针对InhA和CYP121)以及密度泛函理论(DFT)研究表明,这些活性化合物作为新型抗结核药物的支架具有巨大潜力。
