New quinoxalin‐1, 3, 4‐oxadiazole derivatives: Synthesis, characterization, in vitro biological evaluations, and molecular modeling studies

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

A new series of quinoxalin‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole (10a–l) derivatives was synthesized and evaluated against some metabolic enzymes including human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) isoenzymes I and II (carbonic anhydrases I and II), cholinesterase (acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase), and α‐glucosidase. Obtained data revealed that all the synthesized compounds were more potent as compared with the used standard inhibitors against studied target enzymes. Among the synthesized compounds, 4‐fluoro derivative (10f) against hCA I, 4‐chloro derivative (10i) against hCA II, 3‐fluoro derivative (10e) against acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase, and 3‐bromo derivative (10k) against α‐glucosidase were the most potent compounds with inhibitory activity around 1.8‐ to 7.37‐fold better than standard inhibitors. Furthermore, docking studies of these compounds were performed at the active site of their target enzymes.
