Synthesis of Carbazole-Thiazole Dyes via One-Pot Tricomponent Reaction: Exploring Photophysical Properties, Tyrosinase Inhibition, and Molecular Docking.

ABSTRACT: Carbazole is an aromatic heterocyclic organic compound consisting of two fused benzene rings and a pyrrole ring and is a very valuable building structure for the design of many compounds for use in various fields of chemistry and medicine. This study presents three new carbazole-based thiazole derivatives that differ in the presence of a different halogen atom: chlorine, bromine, and fluorine. Experimental studies and quantum-chemical simulations show the effect of changing a halogen atom on the physicochemical, biological, and linear and nonlinear optical properties. We have also found that carbazoles C-Cl, C-Br, and C-F exhibit high tyrosinase inhibitory activity, with IC₅₀ values in the range of 68-105 µM with mixed mechanism of action. Finally, molecular docking to the activ
