Study of the histamine copper(II) chloride complex catalytic activity

Pyrazole, imidazole and triazole: In silico, docking and ADMET studies against SARS-CoV-2

The Coronavirus pandemic, Covid-19 and SARS-Cov-2 put multidisciplinary research by chemists, biologists, pharmacists and theorists necessary and primordial task to find new active biomolecules which will be beneficial for all humanity. The azoles drugs are electronic rich, they should be used with caution, and an understanding of their pharmacokinetic profile, safety, absorption, distribution, excretion, metabolism, toxicity, and drug-drug interaction profiles is important to provide effective and cure therapy. In these objectives and goals, twenty aromatic nitrogen heterocycle compounds were chosen for in silico, docking and AMET studies against SARS-CoV-2. In this paper with respect to the protein S of SARS-CoV-2 properties, the GAUSSIAN 09w program used in the semi-empirical method at the AM1 level with the optimization of the geometry of the structures. Then Toxicity and physicochemical properties were evaluated by AMET. Molecular docking investigations conducted; the binding affinities as well as interactions of the sieve compounds with the SRAS-CoV-2 protein Spike using PyRx software. In general, the preliminary results are fructuous and needs further in vitro testes.

Crystal structure of 2-(1H-imidazol-3-ium-4-yl)ethanaminium dichloride, a re-determination

The crystal structure of the title mol-ecular salt, C5H11N3 (+)·2Cl(-), was redetermined. In comparison with the previous study [Bonnet et al. (1975 ▸). Bull. Soc. Fr. Mineral. Crist. 98, 208-213.], the positions of some H atoms were corrected, allowing a more accurate description of the hydrogen-bonding scheme. In addition, the absolute structure was also determined. The maximum differences in terms of bond lengths and angles between the two determinations are 0.022 Å and 1.43°, respectively. The organic cation display a anti conformation of the protonated amine function and the imidazolium ring. The dihedral angle between the imidazolium plane and the plane through the C-C-N side chain is 29.58 (3)°. In the crystal, the organic cations and Cl(-) anions are stacked alternatively into layers parallel to (100). N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds between all H atoms of the ammonium group and both N-H groups of the imidazolium ring and the Cl(-) acceptor anions lead to the linkage of organic and inorganic layers into a three-dimensional network.

Crystal structure of 2-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)ethanaminium chloride

The title mol­ecular salt, C₅H₁₀N₃⁺·Cl⁻, was obtained as by-product in the attempted synthesis of a histamine derivative. The terminal amino group of the starting material is protonated. The C_imidazole—C—C—N(H₃)⁺ group in the cation is in an anti conformation with a torsion angle of 176.22 (10)°. In the crystal, cations and anions are linked via N—H⋯N and N—H—Cl hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional network parallel to (10-1). A single weak C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bond completes a three-dimensional network.
