Synthesis, characterization and evaluation of new thiazole derivatives as anthelmintic agents
Abstract
A series of 2-amino substituted 4-phenyl thiazole derivatives has been synthesized by the conventional method. The thiazole derivatives have been synthesized by three steps. The obtained five derivatives have been purified by recrystallization process by using methanol as solvent and column chromatography [IVd Compound] and have been characterized by melting point, TLC, FTIR, 1H NMR and mass spectral data. All the five derivatives have been evaluated using in silico studies by using different softwares (Lipinski’s Rule of 5, OSIRIS molecular property explorer, Molsoft molecular property explorer, PASS and docking studies). These compounds have then been evaluated for anthelmintic activity against Indian adult earth worms (Pheretima postuma). All the compounds show significant anthelmintic activity. The compound IVc and IVe are shown to be potent compounds when compared with the standard drug (Mebendazole). Molecular docking studies have guided and prove the biological activity of the sythesised compounds against beta tubulin protein (1OJ0).
