DABCO–PEG ionic liquid-based synthesis of acridine analogous and its inhibitory activity on alkaline phosphatase
<p>In world, many people struggle with viral, parasitic, bacterial, cancer, and other diseases. Therefore, numerous chemists seek to develop less toxic, more selective, and effective medicines. Most therapeutic medicines are based on inhibition of specific enzymes. Acridines are interesting heterocyclic structures that are much sought after targets attributed to their wide biological activities and feature to display potent enzymes inhibitory effects. Their approach of action is owing to DNA interaction and subsequent effects on the biological functions linked to DNA and associated enzymes. In this regards, we synthesized acridine analogous through 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO)–polyethylene glycol-400 (PEG-400) mediated ionic liquid approach. DABCO–PEG-400-mediated IL was prepared through the DABCO alkylation using 1-bromopentane followed by mixing with PEG-400. The synthesized analogous were investigated as inhibitors of alkaline phosphatase, which is a nonspecific phosphomonoester hydrolase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of broad spectrum of organic monophosphates. Analogue viz. 3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-9-(4-nitrophenyl)-2,3,4,5,6,7,9,10-octahydroacridine-1,8-dione was found to be potent alkaline phosphatase inhibitor.</p
