Among the compounds discussed, compounds 3c, 3a, 2e and 2b have the best binding affinity for alpha-Gly (-9.87,-9.77,-9.04 and-8.63 kcal/mol); compounds 3e, 3b, 2d and 2e turn out to have the second-best binding affinity (-8.80,-8.74,-8.39 and-7.57 kcal/mol) against hCA II. Lastly, compounds showing the lowest binding affinity for hCA I enzyme are 3e, 3b, 2d and 2e, respectively. These findings show that especially NHC-palladium(II) complexes 3a-e are more active for all three enzyme structures than their N-heterocyclic carbene precursors 2a-e and may be potential candidates for the discovery and development of effective inhibitors for the related enzymes in the future.Öğe Novel silver(I)N-heterocyclic carbene complexes bearing 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl group: Synthesis, characterization, and enzyme inhibition properties(Wiley, 2021) Behcet, Ayten; Aktas, Aydin; Gok, Yetkin; Kaya, Ruya; Taslimi, Parham; Gulcin, IlhamiHerein, novel silver-based N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes bearing 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl group were synthesized. Novel Ag(I)NHC complexes were synthesized from the 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl-substituted benzimidazolium salts and silver oxide via in situ deprotonation method. The successful formation of all Ag(I)NHC complexes was proved by using H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, FTIR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis techniques. In addition, their inhibitory effects have been investigated of these substances on acetylcholinesterase (AChE), alpha-glycosidase (alpha-Gly), human carbonic anhydrase I (hCA I), and human carbonic anhydrase II (hCA II) enzymes. It has been seen that all compounds have a better ability to inhibit compared with existing tried inhibitors. Among these, the best inhibitor against AChE enzyme is 1g (K-i : 9.54 +/- 0.98 mu M and IC50 : 17.40), and against alpha-Gly, 1c showed the highest effect (K-i 3.09 +/- 0.36 mu M and IC50 7.91). The best inhibitor against hCA I and hCA II enzymes are 1c and 1g compounds. For hCA I and hCA II, IC50 values were calculated as 17.85 and 9.06 mu M and K-i values were measured as 5.45 +/- 2.02 and 8.99 +/- 2.02 mu M, respectively.Öğe PEPPSI type Pd(II)NHC complexes bearing chloro-/fluorobenzyl group: Synthesis, characterization, crystal structures, ?-glycosidase and acetylcholinesterase inhibitory properties(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021) Bal, Selma; Demirci, Ozlem; Sen, Betul; Taslimi, Parham; Aktas, Aydin; Gok, Yetkin; Aygun, MuhittinThis work reported the synthesis of a new PEPPSI (Pyridine Enhanced Precatalyst Preparation, Stabilization and Initiation) type Pd(II)N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes bearing halo-benzyl (4-florobenzyl and 2-chloro-4-florobenzyl) group. These new complexes were synthesized from the florobenzyl / chlorofluorobenzyl substituted benzimidazolium salts, PdCl2 and pyridine. Characterizations of all the synthesized complexes were done using elemental analysis, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy techniques. The molecular and crystal structures of the new PEPPSI type Pd(II)NHC complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. X-ray studies show that molecular structures of three complexes comprise a palladium(II) atom with a slightly distorted square-planar coordination environment. These synthesized salts were found to be effective inhibitors for the alpha-glycosidase, and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme with K-i values in the range of 27.36 +/- 5.06-124.88 +/- 18.05 mu M for alpha-glycosidase, and 0.78 +/- 0.11-4.34 +/- 1.02 mu M for AChE, respectively. The significant group of drugs currently utilized for the therapy of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is acetylcholinesterase/cholinesterase inhibitor compounds. The first cholinesterase inhibitor licensed for symptomatic therapy of AD was tacrine. Inhibition acts of alpha-glycosidase enzyme by inhibitors tend to slow the breakdown and release of sugar molecules into the bloodstream and can be utilized as therapeutic factors in the therapy of obesity and diabetes.

All of the compounds obtained were characterized using elemental analysis, FT-IR, H-1 NMR, and C-13 NMR spectroscopy. The enzyme inhibitory properties of these compounds were tested and the influence of the alkane chain length and the substituents on the phenyl group on the enzyme inhibition activity were examined. The novel Schiff bases and their amine derivatives (1a-d, 2a-d, 3b-d, 4a-c, 5a-c, 6a, 6c, 6d) were effective inhibitors of the cytosolic carbonic anhydrase I and II isoforms (hCA I and II), and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) with K-i values in the range of 159.43 +/- 30.03 to 563.73 +/- 115.30nM for hCA I, 104.88 +/- 18.44 to 524.32 +/- 95.03nM for hCA II, and 3.95 +/- 0.74 to 30.83 +/- 6.81nM for AChE.
