Popis | Basic thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazone derivatives of acetophenone with imine functional group belong to the group commonly called Schiff bases. Therapeutics and compounds belonging to this group are versatile pharmacophores with a significant capability of forming chelates with various metal ions. Such metal complexes play an important role in therapeutics due to their remarkable broad-spectrum of biological activities. Due to the above-mentioned complex formation, many Schiff bases appear as an important intermediate in a number of enzymatic reactions. One of the possible target enzyme is a neutral zinc-binding metalloenzyme aminopeptidase N (AP-N), also called membrane alanyl aminopeptidase. Potential inhibitors of this omnipresent enzyme may offer effective and broad-spectrum therapy. Through three-step synthesis it is possible to obtain three arene substitution isomers of basic thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazone derivatives of acetophenone. |
