Design, synthesis, docking studies and bioactivity evaluation of 1,2,3-triazole eugenol derivatives.

ABSTRACT: Aim: The design, synthesis, docking studies and evaluation of the in vitro antifungal and cytotoxic properties of eugenol (EUG) containing 1,2,3-triazole derivatives are reported. Most of the derivatives have not been reported.Materials & methods: The EUG derivatives were synthesized, molecular docked and tested for their antifungal activity.Results: The compounds showed potent antifungal activity against Trichophyton rubrum, associated with dermatophytosis. Compounds 2a and 2i exhibited promising results, with 2a being four-times more potent than EUG. The binding mode prediction was similar to itraconazole in the lanosterol-14-α-demethylase wild-type and G73E mutant binding sites. Additionally, the pharmacokinetic profile prediction
