RESUMO
A series of alkyl/aryl/aralkylamines or amino acids appended tetrahydro-2H-1,3,5-thiadiazine-2-thiones (4a-i, 5a-g, 6 and 7) were synthesized via one pot domino synthesis. The synthesis involved reacting alkyl/aryl/aralkylamines or amino acids with carbon disulfide employing basic aqueous medium and further cyclization with formaldehyde and alkyl/aryl/aralkylamines or amino acids. In addition, the carboxy-functionalized 1,3,5-thiadiazine-2-thione 6 was further subjected to esterification. All the structures were confirmed through spectral techniques i.e IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and MS analysis. Furthermore, the newly synthesized compounds were biologically assessed via in vitro COX-2 and 5-LOX assays, in vivo anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities. Among the screened compounds, 6, 5f, and 7 exhibited highest inhibitory potency against COX-2 with IC50 values of 11.96, 13.54, and 13.93 µM, respectively. Moreover, compounds 6 and 7 exhibited excellent inhibitory potential against 5-LOX with IC50 values of 14.01 and 14.13 µM. The in-vivo anti-inflammatory bioassay studies showed that compounds 6, 7 and 5f dramatically reduced the paw edema size at 1 h and 3 h time intervals. In the anti-nociceptive activity, compound 6 showed pain protection comparative to Tramadol in all tested time intervals. In addition, studies of molecular docking revealed the compounds binding modes in the allosteric site of COX-2 and active site of 5-LOX, where these compounds exhibited higher binding scores and good binding interactions.
