Abstract
In this study, the FT-IR, FT-Raman, and UV-Vis spectroscopic properties of three monosubstituted phenylboronic acid derivatives: ortho-chlorophenylboronic acid (o-ClPhBA), meta-chlorophenylboronic acid (m-ClPhBA) and para-chlorophenylboronic acid (p-ClPhBA) molecules are investigated both experimentally and theoretically using Density Functional Theory (B3LYP) and Hartree Fock (HF). In order to find the stable possible conformations of the compounds, the conformational analysis was carried out by running potential energy surface (PES) scan by means of rotation of two structural parameters, the dihedral angles indicated as φ2 (C6-B-O1-H1A) and φ3 (C6-B-O2-H2A), varying from -180° to 180° with an increment of 10° using B3LYP/6-31G level of theory. Also, to determinate the most stable conformer for all the molecules, potential energy curve (PEC) the stable possible conformations on PES scan were investigated as a function of φ1 (C1-C6-B-O1) dihedral angle from 0° up to 180° with an increment of 10° using B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) and HF/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. For all the studied compounds, two conformational structures (conformer anti-anti, syn-syn) that did not have imaginary frequency values outside the equilibrium state (conformer anti-syn) were detected theoretically at the both methods. Due to their conformational flexibility, the relative stabilities of the anti-syn, anti-anti, and syn-syn conformers of o-ClPhBA, m-ClPhBA, and p-ClPhBA are 0.0, 4.66, and 6.76 kcal/mol, respectively, at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. For the HF/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory, the relative stabilities are 0.00, 4.54, and 6.11 kcal/mol for o-ClPhBA; 0.00, 3.98, and 1.51 kcal/mol for m-ClPhBA; and 0.00, 4.10, and 1.44 kcal/mol for p-ClPhBA, respectively. Some of the determined stable conformations of these molecules are different in symmetry groups. It was observed that the increase in the symmetry was effective in the of molecular properties, especially for vibrational frequencies. The structural parameter, dipole moments (μ), vibrational frequencies, polarizability (α), hyperpolarizability (β), the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of the stable conformers were calculated by using Ab initio HF/6-311++G(d,p) and DFT/B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. The assignments of fundamental vibrational modes of the studied molecule were performed based on total energy distribution (TED) analysis.

Abstract
In this study, new hybrids of quinazolinone-1,2,3-triazole-acetamide were designed, synthesized, and screened for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. The results obtained from the in vitro screening indicated that all analogs exhibited significant inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase (IC50 values ranging from 4.8-140.2 μM) in comparison to acarbose (IC50 = 750.0 μM). The limited structure-activity relationships suggested the variation in the inhibitory activities of the compounds affected by different substitutions on the aryl moiety. The enzyme kinetic studies of the most potent compound 9c, revealed that it inhibited α-glucosidase in a competitive mode with a K i value of 4.8 μM. In addition, molecular docking studies investigated the structural perturbation and behavior of all derivatives inside the α-glucosidase active site. Next, molecular dynamic simulations of the most potent compound 9c, were performed to study the behavior of the 9c-complex during the time. The results showed that these compounds can be considered as potential antidiabetic agents.

Abstract
To find new potential tyrosinase inhibitors, a diverse range of 2-arylchromone-4-thione derivatives (2a-2p) were designed and synthesized by employing a multistep strategy, and the newly synthesized compounds, for the first time, were screened in vitro for their tyrosinase inhibitory activity. In this context, the newly synthesized compounds (2a-2p) were characterized using a combination of several spectroscopic techniques including Fourier transform infrared, UV-vis, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopies and electron ionization-mass spectrometry. All the target compounds were potent against tyrosinase as compared to the standard inhibitor kojic acid (half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) = 12.6 ± 0.6 μM). The compounds (2a-2p) produced IC50 values in the range from 1.12 ± 0.04 to 5.68 ± 0.13 μM. Among the synthesized 4-thioflavones and 4-thioflavonols, the compound 2n exhibited excellent tyrosinase inhibitory activity with the lowest IC50 of 1.12 ± 0.04 μM that could be recommended as potential lead candidates to cure tyrosinase-mediated hyperpigmentation in the future. A kinetic study of compound 2n revealed that compound 2n inhibited tyrosinase in a competitive mode. Furthermore, the nontoxic performance of the most beneficial compounds ranging from 1 to 25 g/mL was determined using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide test method for A375 human melanoma cells for the highly efficient target compounds (2m, 2n, 2o, and 2p). Moreover, a molecular modeling study was performed against tyrosinase enzyme (2Y9X) to check the binding interactions of the synthesized compounds (2a-2p) against the target protein. Furthermore, quantitative structure-activity relationship studies were conducted based on an antityrosinase assay. The value of the correlation coefficient (R 2) 0.9997 shows that there was a good correlation between (2a-2p) structures and selected properties. The geometry optimization of all complexes was performed by using Gaussian 09. Additionally, a drug-likeness research was used to establish the potent analogues' positive action as a new antityrosinase agent (2n, 2o, and 2p).

Abstract
In the present work, a concise library of 1,3,5-triaryl-2-pyrazolines (2a-2q) was designed and synthesized by employing a multistep strategy, and the newly synthesized compounds were screened for their urease and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities. The compounds (2a-2q) were characterized using a combination of several spectroscopic techniques including FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and EI-MS. All the synthesized compounds, except compound 2i, were potent against urease as compared to the standard inhibitor thiourea (IC50 = 21.37 ± 0.26 μM). These analogs disclosed varying degrees of urease inhibitory activities ranging from 9.13 ± 0.25 to 18.42 ± 0.42 μM. Compounds 2b, 2g, 2m, and 2q having IC50 values of 9.36 ± 0.27, 9.13 ± 0.25, 9.18 ± 0.35, and 9.35 ± 0.35 μM, respectively, showed excellent inhibitory activity as compared to standard thiourea (IC50 = 21.37 ± 0.26 μM). A kinetic study of compound 2g revealed that compound 2g inhibited urease in a competitive mode. Among the synthesized pyrazolines, the compounds 2c, 2k, 2m, and 2o exhibited excellent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with the lowest IC50 values of 212.52 ± 1.31, 237.26 ± 1.28, 138.35 ± 1.32, and 114.57 ± 1.35 μM, respectively, as compared to the standard acarbose (IC50 = 375.82 ± 1.76 μM). The compounds (2a-2q) showed α-glucosidase IC50 values in the range of 114.57 ± 1.35 to 462.94 ± 1.23 μM. Structure-activity relationship revealed that the size and electron-donating or -withdrawing effects of substituents influenced the activities, which led to the urease and α-glucosidase inhibiting properties. Compound 2m was a dual potent inhibitor against urease and α-glucosidase due to the presence of 2-CF3 electron-withdrawing functionality on the phenyl ring. To the best of our knowledge, these synthetic compounds were found to be the most potent dual inhibitors of urease and α-glucosidase with minimum IC50 values. The cytotoxicity of the compounds (2a-2q) was also investigated against human cell lines MCF-7 and HeLa. Compound 2l showed moderate cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 and HeLa cell lines. Moreover, in silico studies on most active compounds were also performed to understand the binding interaction of most active compounds with active sites of urease and α-glucosidase enzymes. Some compounds exhibited drug-like characteristics due to their lower cytotoxic and good ADME profiles.
