Abstract

In the present work, a new series of 14 novel phthalimide-benzenesulfonamide derivatives 4a–n were synthesized, and their inhibitory activity against yeast α-glucosidase was screened. The obtained results indicated that most of the newly synthesized compounds showed prominent inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase. Among them, 4-phenylpiperazin derivative 4m exhibited the strongest inhibition with the IC50 value of 52.2 ± 0.1 µM. Enzyme kinetic study of compound 4m proved that its inhibition mode was competitive and Ki value of this compound was calculated to be 52.7 µM. In silico induced fit docking and molecular dynamics studies were performed to further investigate the interaction, orientation, and conformation of the target compounds over the active site of α-glucosidase. Obtained date of these studies demonstrated that our new compounds interacted as well with the α-glucosidase active site with the acceptable binding energies. Furthermore, in silico druglikeness/ADME/Toxicity studies of compound 4m were performed and predicted that this compound is druglikeness and has good ADME and toxicity profiles. © 2022, The Author(s).
