Öğe Anticancer, antioxidant, DFT calculations, and docking studies of some new peptide-indole conjugates(Acg Publications, 2024) Kucukbay, Hasan; Gonul, Zeynep; Kurucay, Ali; Ates, Burhan; Boulebd, Houssem; Kucukbay, F. ZehraIn this study, the structures of six new peptide-indole derivatives were elucidated through spectroscopic and analytical methods following their synthesis. In addition to their anticancer and antioxidant properties, density functional theory (DFT) calculations and docking studies were conducted for the compounds. According to the obtained results, compounds 1 and 3 were identified as the most active against the MCF-7 cell line, with IC50 values of 8.72 and 5.86 mu g/mL, respectively. Conversely, compounds 4 and 1 were found to be the most active against the A549 cell line, with IC50 values of 15.43 and 16.10 mu g/mL, respectively. When compared to standard antioxidants using both the DPPH and iron reduction power assays, the compounds did not exhibit significant antioxidant activity. The molecular geometry and electronic properties of the synthesized peptide-indole derivatives were investigated through theoretical calculations using the Density Functional Theory (DFT) method. Molecular docking studies were also conducted to investigate the binding modes of the synthesized compounds within the active sites of EGFR enzyme.Öğe Bridged NHC-Pd(II) complexes: Synthesis, DFT calculations, molecular docking, and investigation of catalytic and biological activities(Elsevier Science Sa, 2024) Firat, Tuba; Bugday, Nesrin; Yasar, Seyma; Boulebd, Houssem; Mansour, Lamjed; Koko, Waleed S.; Hamdi, NaceurSix palladium(II) ( 3a -f ) complexes of the type [Pd 2 ( mu-Cl) 2 (NHC)] were prepared by transmetallation of the corresponding Ag-NHC and [PdCl 2 (CH 3 CN) 2 ] complexes, and their structures were successfully characterised by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, HRMS, FTIR and elemental analysis. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were also realised for the complexes. The prepared complexes were assessed for their catalytic activity in the C -H arylation of 2-isobuthylthiazole as well as for their biological activities. As results, these complexes were found to be potent catalysts in the creation of C5-arylated 2-isobuthylthiazole derivatives via C -H bond activation reaction. Furthermore, biological activity analysis revealed that complex 3a exhibits high cytotoxicity towards both human colon carcinoma cell lines (HCT-116) and hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (HepG-2) with IC 50 values of 4.2 and 9.3 mu MmL -1 , respectively. Complex 3b also showed antioxidant activity comparable to that of BHT through DPPH and ABTS assays. Both complexes 3d and 3f also showed significant inhibitory activity towards the AChE enzyme with IC 50 values of 5.06 and 2.52 mu MmL -1 , respectively. Finally, all complexes showed excellent antiparasitic activity, with 3b exhibiting strong antileishmanial activity against both L. major promastigotes and amastigotes. The interaction between the most cytotoxic complexes and DNA, envisaged as a potential mechanism of toxicity, was explored by means of docking studies. In summary, these prepared complexes have the potential to serve as potent catalysts for the synthesis of arylated 2-isobutylthiazole and biologically active agents, paving the way for numerous prospects in the fields of medicinal chemistry and organic synthesis.Öğe New benzimidazolium N-heterocyclic carbene precursors and their related Pd-NHC complex PEPPSI-type: Synthesis, structures, DFT calculations, biological activity, docking study, and catalytic application in the direct arylation(Elsevier, 2022) Sandeli, Abd El-Krim; Boulebd, Houssem; Khiri-Meribout, Naima; Benzerka, Saida; Bensouici, Chawki; ozdemir, Namik; Gurbuz, NevinNew benzhydryl-5,6-dimethyl-(3-methylbenzyl)benzimidazolium salt as N-heterocyclic carbene precursors and their related new Pd-NHC complex PEPPSI-type with the general formula [PdBr2(NHC)(pyridine)] were prepared and theoretically studied. Quantum chemistry computations at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p)/LANL2DZ level were used to examine the molecular structure, electronic characteristics, and chemical reactivity of the ligand and its Pd complex. Further, the structural characterization of the complex (c) was determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study, which supports the proposed structures and offered a more detailed structural characterization. In addition, their biological activity against. cholinesterase enzymes were also determined. The new compounds were tested against two enzymes (AChE and BChE), furthermore, docking studies were carried out in order to gain a better understanding of the bonding modes of L and COP in the active sites of AChE and BChE enzymes. The new salt and Pd-NHC complex PEPPSI-type were fully characterized by spectroscopic and analytical methods. The new Pd-catalysts based N-heterocyclic carbene ligand PEPPSI-Type was applied by the direct arylation process of five-membered heteroaromatics such as thiophene, and furan derivatives with various (hetero)aryl bromides in the presence of 1 mol% catalyst, using KOAc as a co-catalyst. The results showed that the new Pd-NHC complex is an effective catalyst. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V.

All the synthesized derivatives were characterized by NMR, Q-TOF-LC/MS, FTIR, and X-ray (for 4a, 5a, and 5b) analysis. In addition, DFT calculations and computational NBO studies for Pd-NHC complexes were examined, and HOMO and LUMO energy levels and electron density of each Pd-NHC complex were defined. 4a-c and 5a-b complexes showed good catalytic activity in C-H bond activation reactions. DFT studies have also been conducted to examine the reaction mechanism following the CMD pathway. Complex 5a was chosen as a representative catalyst for the reaction of unsubstituted phenyl with caffeine and 2-isobuthylthiazole. Although the delta E values of the complexes are so close, slight difference in the catalytic activity were observed for 4a-c and 5a-b. Since this low delta E value facilitates the oxidative addition reaction of (hetero)aryl bromides, thanks to this catalytic system, new 8-(hetero)aryl xan-thines and 5-(hetero)aryl thiazole derivatives could be synthesized with high yields and low catalyst loading.Öğe Preparation, DFT calculations, docking studies, antioxidant, and anticancer properties of new pyrazole and pyridine derivatives(Wiley, 2022) Zebbiche, Zineddine; Sekerci, Guldeniz; Boulebd, Houssem; Kucukbay, Fatumetuzzehra; Tekin, Suat; Tekin, Zehra; Kucukbay, HasanSeven novel pyrazole derivatives (4a-g) and four novel starting compounds incorporating substituted pyridine moieties were synthesized successfully. Cell viability assay for the tested compounds was performed, and the inhibitory concentrationlogarithmic 50 (LogIC(50)) values of the compounds were calculated after a 24-h treatment. Four of the examined compounds (3d, 3g, 4f, and 4g) showed comparable cytotoxic activity against CaCo-2 compared to the standard drug docetaxel at 0.1 and 1 mu M concentrations. Although the LogIC(50) of docetaxel was -0.678 mu M for CaCo-2 cells at 24 h, the LogIC(50) values of compounds were -0.794, -0.567, -0.657, and -0.498 respectively. Five of the compounds (2d, 2g, 3d, 3g and 4e) showed comparable cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 at 0.1 mu M concentration compared to docetaxel (p < 0.05). Docking studies revealed the compounds have a good affinity to the active site of the human topoisomerase II beta enzyme. The antioxidant capacities of all compounds were determined using both 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and metal chelation methods. Although the compounds did not show significant antioxidant activity, relatively effective are compounds 3c, 3d, and 3g, which are hydrazine derivatives with approximately 50% antioxidant activity of standard antioxidants at concentrations of 62.5 and 125 mu g/ml.Öğe Synthesis, Cytotoxicity, Antioxidant Activity, DFT Calculations, and Docking Studies of New Pyridine-Malonate Derivatives as Potential Anticancer Agents(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Kadi, Ibtissem; Guldeniz, Sekerci; Boulebd, Houssem; Zebbiche, Zineddine; Tekin, Suat; Kucukbay, Fatumetuzzehra; Gonul, ZeynepA series of new pyridine-malonate derivatives were synthesized and fully characterized by 1HNMR, 13CNMR, FTIR, and elemental analysis. Their molecular geometry and chemical reactivity have been investigated using DFT calculations. The cytotoxicity of all synthesized compounds was assessed against two human cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and A-2780) using the MTT assay. Among them, compounds 2a, 2c, 2e, and 2g showed comparable or more potent cytotoxicity toward the MCF-7 cells than the reference drug docetaxel (IC50 = 0.34-0.47 vs. 0.50 mu M). In contrast, only compound 2g showed more potent cytotoxicity against the A-2780 cell line compared to the standard (IC50 = 0.36 vs. 0.42 mu M). The docking study revealed a good affinity for the active site of the human topoisomerase-II beta enzyme, which may explain the promising cytotoxicity of these classes of molecules. The radical scavenging activity of the respective compounds was studied using DPPH radical scavenging assay and it was found that most of the compounds are moderate DPPH radical scavengers compared to the standard drugs BHA and BHT.Öğe Synthesis, DFT calculations, and investigation of catalytic and biological activities of back-bond functionalized re-NHC-Cu complexes(Wiley, 2024) Yagmurlu, Ayse; Bugday, Nesrin; Yasar, Seyma; Boulebd, Houssem; Mansour, Lamjed; Koko, Waleed S.; Hamdi, NaceurFive copper complexes (3a-e) stabilized by ring-expanded back-bond functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene ligands (re-NHCs) were produced in the glovebox by reacting free re-NHC with CuI precursor. The potential of these re-NHC-Cu complexes as catalysts on the synthesis of mono- and di-(1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles) by Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions was investigated. Various spectroscopic approaches were utilized to completely characterize the structures of the re-Cu-NHC complexes. Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out to get further insights into their molecular geometry and CuAAC reaction mechanism. The re-NHC-Cu complexes showed high activity on the CuAAC reaction in an open-air atmosphere at rt. The Gibbs free energies as well as the optimized geometries of the intermediates and the transition states of the determining step of the reactions catalyzed by 3a, 3e, and 3b complexes were computed. Complex 3e was found to be the most efficient catalyst among these re-NHC-Cu complexes. Additionally, re-Cu-NHC complexes were investigated for their biological activities, including antiproliferative, antioxidant, AChE and TyrE inhibition, and antiparasitic activity. The results showed that the 3b, 3d, and 3e complexes possessed strong antiproliferative activity against human colon carcinoma (HCT-116) and moderate cytotoxic activity against hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG-2) cell lines. In addition, effective selective antileishmanial effects were observed for the 3e compound against both promastigotes and amastigotes stages of L. major with an IC50 value of 0.027 and 0.39 mu M mL-1, respectively. These results demonstrate that these compounds are promising candidates for the treatment of colorectal cancer and leishmaniasis. re-NHC-Cu complexes have been synthesized and used as catalyst on CuAAC reactions. imageÖğe Synthesis, in vitro, and in silico studies of novel poly-heterocyclic compounds bearing pyridine and furan moieties as potential anticancer agents(Elsevier, 2023) Kadi, Ibtissem; Sekerci, Güldeniz; Boulebd, Houssem; Zebbiche, Zineddine; Tekin, Suat; Kucukbay, Hasan; Kucukbay, FatümetüzzehraThirteen novel poly-heterocyclic compounds containing pyridine and furan moieties were synthesized and fully characterized by H-1 NMR, 1(3)C NMR, FTIR, and elemental analysis.

The cytotoxicity of all compounds was assessed In vitro against MCF-7 and A-2780 cell lines using the MTT assay. Among them, compounds 2c, 3c, 3d, 4a, and 4c at 0.1 mu M concentration showed more potent cytotoxicity against the MCF-7 cells than the reference drug docetaxel. On the other hand, compounds 2c, 3a, 3c, and 4c are more cytotoxic against the A-2780 cell line compared to the standard at the same concentration. The docking studies revealed an excellent affinity for the active site of the human topoisomeraseII ss enzyme, which may explain the promising cytotoxicity of these classes of molecules.

Further, the structural characterization of 3a, 3b, and 3d was performed via single-crystal X-ray diffraction, which supported the proposed structures and offered a more detailed structural characterization. Additionally, the electronic, vibrational, thermodynamic, and optical properties of 3a, as a representative molecule, were confirmed utilizing density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The experimental molecular geometry of the ground state of complex 3a was compared with the minimized structure obtained from DFT calculations. The B3LYP functional in conjunction with the LANL2DZ basis set for the palladium atom and the 6-311G(d,p) basis set for the hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and bromine atoms were used for all calculations. The frontier molecular orbitals and molecular electrostatic potential were also analyzed and discussed. Due to the significant interest in halo-substituted arylated heteroarenes in organic chemistry, the catalytic activity of these Pd(II)-NHC PEPPSI-type complexes were evaluated via the direct arylation of five-membered heteroaromatics such as thiophene, furan, and thiazole derivatives with various (hetero)aryl bromides in the presence of 1 mol% catalyst. The results showed that all new Pd-NHC complexes are effective catalysts, which exhibited very good catalytic activity and gave C-H activation selectively at the C(5)-position of 2-acetyl furan and 2-acetyl thiophene.
