Synthesis, in vitro inhibitor screening, structure-activity relationship, and molecular dynamic simulation studies of novel thioquinoline derivatives as potent α-glucosidase inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: New series of thioquinoline structures bearing phenylacetamide 9a-p were designed, synthesized and the structure of all derivatives was confirmed using different spectroscopic techniques including FTIR, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, ESI-MS and elemental analysis. Next, the α-glucosidase inhibitory activities of derivatives were also determined and all the synthesized compounds (IC₅₀ = 14.0 ± 0.6-373.85 ± 0.8 μM) were more potent than standard inhibitors acarbose (IC₅₀ = 752.0 ± 2.0 μM) against α-glucosidase. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) were rationalized by analyzing the substituents effects and it was shown that mostly, electron-donating groups at the R position are more favorable compared to the electron-withdrawing group.
