Novel hybrids of thiazolidinedione-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives: synthesis, molecular docking, MD simulations, ADMET study, in vitro, and in vivo anti-diabetic assessment.

ABSTRACT: As compared to standard medicinal compounds, hybrid molecules that contain multiple biologically active functional groups have greater affinity and efficiency. Hence based on this concept, we predicted that a combination of thiazolidinediones and 1,3,4-oxadiazoles may enhance α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibition activity. A series of novel 3-((5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)methyl)thiazolidine-2,5-dione derivatives (5a-5j) were synthesized and characterized using different spectroscopic techniques i.e., FTIR, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR and MS. To evaluate in silico, molecular docking, MMGBSA, and MD simulations were carried out which were further evaluated via in vitro inhibition of α-amylase and α-glycosidase enzyme inhibition assays. In addition, the i
