ABSTRACT:

The present research aims to synthesize new series of 3(2h)-one pyridazinone derivatives with a potential anti-oxidant activity. All the compounds were synthesized by the esterification reaction of 2-(4- Fluoro Phenyl)--butyric acid with sulphuric acid and ethanol followed by hydrazine hydrate to give substituted hydrazides and then hydrazone with substituted ketons, which are cyclized with aldehyde substitutes to give the [5-(2,5-Dichloro-phenyl)-2-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyridin-1-yl]-acetic acid(4-4chloro-benzylidene)-hydrazide derivatives. Structure of all derivatives was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. All these compounds were demonstrated for in-vitro anti oxidant activity by using DPPH radical scavenging activity and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity. Molecular Docking was carried out by cyclin dependent kinase protein and DNA-hexamer ATGCAT. Molecular docking studies of derivatives were carried out by AutoDock Vina molecular docking software. All the results were calculated by PaDEL software. Results of antioxidant activity revealed that all compounds are potent antioxidants at a concentration of 50µg/ml.

 

KEYWORDS: Pyridazinone, Molecular Docking, Anti-oxidant activity, NMR, FT-IR.

 

 


INTRODUCTION:

Various biotransformation reactions in living organism involve an oxidative process which is important in cell survival. A series of free radicals are generated as a result of these oxidative reactions, which are the primary cause of numerous diseases such as autoimmune disease, alzhiemer, depression, cancer and many more1. These oxygenated free radicals are defined as chemical entities having an unpaired electron in the outer valence shell such as hydroxyl, hydroperoxyl, peroxyl, alkoxyl and nitric oxide2. Antioxidants are compounds that neutralize the free radicals before their destructive effect on cells. So, they play a vital role in human health3. The present research studies emphasize on the evaluation of antioxidant and anticancer activity of newly synthesized pyridazinone (Pyridazin-3(2H)-one) derivatives4.

 

Antioxidant activity was determined by DPPH radical scavenging activity and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity using ascorbic acid as standard5 and anticancer activity by molecular docking analysis on cyclin dependent kinase protein6 and DNA-hexamer         ATGCAT 7. The molecular docking approach is widely used in the drug discovery process for the evaluation of the effective pharmacological activity of a particular drug by model the interaction of an active pharmaceutical component (API) and respective protein (receptor), at the atomic level, which allow us to examine the behavior of API in the binding site of receptor8,9,10. The docking process works by two basic steps: prediction of the ligand confirmation as well as its position and orientation within these sites (usually referred to as pose) and assessment of the binding affinity. Pyridazinone (Pyridazin-3(2H)-one) derivatives became a core of interest for pharmaceutical research on account of exhibiting several biological and pharmacological activities such as antihypertensive, diuretics, analgesic, anticancer and antithrombic. The nucleus of pyridazinone has been regarded as a wonder nucleus because of its pharmacological activities11,12,13. Pyradazinones are exploited as principle nucleus in several drugs such as Levosimendan, Pimobendan, Sulmazole, Indolidan, Milrinone, Emorfazone, Imazodan, Amipizone, and Zardaverine etc14,15,16. Pyradazinones derivatives contain two nitrogen atoms in a six member ring at 1 and 2 position and owned by an influential group of pyridazine heterocyclic compounds. In pyridazinone compounds both-carbonyl group and amine group are worthy placed with each other. Tautomerism has been reported in nearly all pyridazinone derivatives. Pyridazinones principally exist in oxo form as evaluated in its various derivatives17,18.

 

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

Materials:

All the chemicals and solvents were purchased from Merck (India), Spectrochem (India), Sigma-Aldrich (India), CDH (India) and S.D. All the reagents were of the highest analytical grade.

 

Methodology:

General method for the synthesis of pyridazin-3(2H)-one

Step-1 Synthesis of (1,4-Difluoro benzene) from Succinic Anhydride: (1,4-Difluoro benzene) was synthesized by dissolving succinic anhydride in nitro benzene with continuous heat and stirring on magnetic stirrer further by the addition of dichlorobenzene. Turn off the heater and add aluminum trichloride with continuous stirring till the fumes of hydrochloric acid removes. Then nitro-benzene was removed by distillation and the clear solution was obtained. Cooled down and add hydrochloric acid. The crystals of 1,4- Difluoro benzene were appear and identified by TLC and melting point determination. The melting point was determined with 6 type of solvents (ethanol, methanol, chloroform, benzene, ethyl acetate, acetone) in the ratio of 3:2,2;2,1:4.

 

Step-2 Synthesis of (5-(4-Fluoro-cyclohexyl)-hexa-1,5-dien-2-ol) from 2,2-(4-Fluoro Phenyl)-butyric acid:

(5-(4-Fluoro-cyclohexyl)-hexa-1,5-dien-2-ol was synthesized from their respective 2,2-(4-Fluoro Phenyl)-butyric acid, using excess of dry ethanol in the presence of sulphuric acid under reflux for 20-24 hours and identified by TLC in every 30 min.

 
Step-3 Synthesis of 2-(4-Fluoro Phenyl)-butyric acid hydrazide from 2 2-(4-Fluoro Phenyl)- butyric acid ethyl ester:
Synthesis of 2-(4-Fluoro Phenyl)-butyric acid hydrazide from 2 2-(4-Fluoro Phenyl)- butyric acid ethyl ester with Hydrazine hydrate 99% in ethanol under reflux for 20-24 hours and identified by TLC in every 30 min.

 

Step-4 Synthesis of different derivatives of ([3-2,2fluoro-phenyl)-6-oxo-5,6-dihydro4H-pyridazin-1-yl]-aceticacid(4-fluoro-benzylidene)hydrazide i.e [(n1(a), (n1(b), (n1(c), (n1(d), (n1(e), (n2(a), (n2(b) and (n2(c)]: Synthesis of different derivatives of hydrazide was synthesized from R- 22-(4-Fluoro Phenyl)-butyric acid hydrazide with the addition of substituted ketone in ethanol and glacial acetic acid in 100ml round bottom flask by refluxing for 45 min and identified by TLC in every 30 min. After this the reaction mixture was poured in ice- cold water. The solid product was collected by filtration under suction. The product was recrystalized by using chloroform. All the compounds were analyzed by FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy.

 

Characterization:

1.     Identification: All the synthesized compounds were identified by melting point analysis, FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy.

2.     Determination of Anticancer activity by molecular docking

 

I. Data Base:

For molecular docking studies, National Center for Biotechnology Information’s (NCBI) website 19 and Protein Data Bank’s (PDB)20 website were used as biological and receptor sources. For designing and optimizing the geometry of the derivatives, Chemdraw Ultra 7.0 was used and molecular docking studies21 of derivatives were carried out by AutoDock Vina molecular docking software. All the results were calculated by PaDEL software22.

 

II. Molecular designing and optimization:

The chemical structures of the hybrid derivatives were drawn using Chem Draw Ultra 7.0 and energy minimization of derivatives was achieved with Chem3D Pro of chem office suit for taking energy of each molecule upto its lowest energy state (highest stability). 3D structure of 2H-Pyridazin-3one Complex protein (PDB id: 1X95 and 4MNB) was retrieved from PubChem compound database at NCBI.

 

III. Protein Preparation:

Wizard of Maestro software was used for protein preparation23. The protein structures, namely, 1X95 (n1) and 4MNB (n2) were taken from Protein Data Bank. The selected chains were edited for missing hydrogen and for assigning proper bond orders. The H-bonds were optimized using sample orientations.

 

3.     In vitro Antioxidant Activity:

The in vitro antioxidant activity was carried out at MBC Industries REF.NO:MBC/QC/2021-22/03 (A Pharma Manufacturer), Village: Johron, Trilokpur Road, Kala-Amb, Distt.-Sirmour (H.P.)-173030 following the below mentioned procedures by evaluating DPPH Radical Scavenging Activity and Hydrogen peroxide-scavenging activity.

 

I. DPPH Radical Scavenging Activity:

The activity is based on the scavenging of 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl free radical in stable form. DPPH activity of all synthesized compound was carried out by adding a different concentrations of all hydrazide derivatives in 3ml of 0.004% methanolic solution of 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl.Absorbance was determined at 517nm. Percentage inhibition was calculated using given equation after the addition of 30 minutes24-29.

 

% Inhibition = (A0-A1) / A0 x 100

 

Where, A0= absorbance of control and A1= absorbance of sample. Using this percentage inhibition reading the value of IC50 was calculated.

 

II. Hydrogen peroxide-scavenging activity:

The activity is based on the scavenging of hydrogen peroxide free radical. Hydrogen peroxide-scavenging activity was carried out by dissolving different concentrations of all hydrazide derivatives in 3.4ml of 0.1 M phosphate buffer. Absorbance was determined at 230nm at interval of 10 min against hydrogen peroxide as blank solution. % Inhibition was calculated using following equation30 - 34:

 

% Inhibition = [(A0-A1)/A0] × 100, Where A0 = the absorbance of the control, A1 = absorbance of the sample.
