Quinoline- and Isoindoline-Integrated Polycyclic Compounds as Antioxidant, and Antidiabetic Agents Targeting the Dual Inhibition of α-Glycosidase and α-Amylase Enzymes

Novel analogs of quinoline and isoindoline containing various heterocycles, such as tetrazole, triazole, pyrazole, and pyridine, were synthesized and characterized using FT-IR, NMR, and mass spectroscopy, and their antioxidant and antidiabetic activities were investigated. The previously synthesized...

description Novel analogs of quinoline and isoindoline containing various heterocycles, such as tetrazole, triazole, pyrazole, and pyridine, were synthesized and characterized using FT-IR, NMR, and mass spectroscopy, and their antioxidant and antidiabetic activities were investigated. The previously synthesized compound <b>1</b> was utilized in conjugation with ketone-bearing tetrazole and isoindoline-1,3-dione to synthesize Schiff’s bases <b>2</b> and <b>3</b>. Furthermore, hydrazide <b>1</b> was treated with aryledines to provide pyrazoles <b>4a</b>–<b>c</b>. Compound <b>5</b> was obtained by treating <b>1</b> with potassium thiocyanate, which was then cyclized in a basic solution to afford triazole <b>6</b>. On the other hand, pyridine derivatives <b>7a</b>–<b>d</b> and <b>8a</b>–<b>d</b> were synthesized using 2-(4-acetylphenyl)isoindoline-1,3-dione via a one-pot condensation reaction with aryl aldehydes and active methylene compounds. From the antioxidant and antidiabetic studies, compound <b>7d</b> showed significant antioxidant activity with an EC<sub>50</sub> = 0.65, 0.52, and 0.93 mM in the free radical scavenging assays (DPPH, ABTS, and superoxide anion radicals). It also displayed noteworthy inhibitory activity against both enzymes α-glycosidase (IC<sub>50</sub>: 0.07 mM) and α-amylase (0.21 mM) compared to acarbose (0.09 mM α-glycosidase and 0.25 mM for α-amylase), and higher than in the other compounds. During in silico assays, compound <b>7d</b> exhibited favorable binding affinities towards both α-glycosidase (−10.9 kcal/mol) and α-amylase (−9.0 kcal/mol) compared to acarbose (−8.6 kcal/mol for α-glycosidase and −6.0 kcal/mol for α-amylase). The stability of <b>7d</b> was demonstrated by molecular dynamics simulations and estimations of the binding free energy throughout the simulation session (100 ns).
