Comput Biol Chem 2024; 111:108097.

Abstract
A new series of 2H-chromene-based sulfonamide derivatives 3-12 has been synthesized and characterized using different spectroscopic techniques. The synthesized 2H-chromenes were synthesized by reacting activated methylene with 5-(piperidin-1-ylsulfonyl)salicylaldehyde through one-step condensation followed by intramolecular cyclization. Virtual screening of the designed molecules on α-glucosidase enzymes (PDB: 3W37 and 3A4A) exhibited good binding affinity suggesting that these derivatives may be potential α-glucosidase inhibitors. In-vitro α-glucosidase activity was conducted firstly at 100 µg/mL, and the results demonstrated good inhibitory potency with values ranging from 90.6% to 96.3% compared to IP = 95.8% for Acarbose. Furthermore, the IC50 values were determined, and the designed derivatives exhibited inhibitory potency less than 11 µg/mL. Surprisingly, two chromene derivatives 6 and 10 showed the highest potency with IC50 values of 0.975 ± 0.04 and 0.584 ± 0.02 µg/mL, respectively, compared to Acarbose (IC50 = 0.805 ± 0.03 µg/mL). Moreover, our work was extended to evaluate the in-vitro α-amylase and PPAR-γ activity as additional targets for diabetic activity. The results exhibited moderate activity on α-amylase and potency as PPAR-γ agonist making it a multiplet antidiabetic target. The most active 2H-chromenes 6 and 10 exhibited significant activity to PPAR-γ with IC50 values of 3.453 ± 0.14 and 4.653 ± 0.04 µg/mL compared to Pioglitazone (IC50 = 4.884±0.29 µg/mL) indicating that these derivatives improve insulin sensitivity by stimulating the production of small insulin-sensitive adipocytes. In-silico ADME profile analysis indicated compliance with Lipinski's and Veber's rules with excellent oral bioavailability properties. Finally, the docking simulation was conducted to explain the expected binding mode and binding affinity.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder of the endocrine system characterized by persistent hyperglycemia appears due to the deficiency or ineffective use of insulin. The glucose level of diabetic patients increases after every meal and medically recommended drugs are used to control hyperglycemia. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors are used as antidiabetic medicine to delay the hydrolysis of complex carbohydrates. Acarbose, miglitol, and voglibose are commercial drugs but patients suffer side effects of flatulence, bloating, diarrhea, and loss of hunger. To explore a new antidiabetic drug, a series of benzotriazinone carboxamides was synthesized and their alpha-glucosidase inhibition potentials were measured using in vitro experiments. The compounds 14k and 14l were found to be strong inhibitors compared to the standard drug acarbose with IC50 values of 27.13 ± 0.12 and 32.14 ± 0.11 μM, respectively. In silico study of 14k and 14l was carried out using molecular docking to identify the type of interactions developed between these compounds and enzyme sites. Both potent compounds 14k and 14l exhibited effective docking scores by making their interactions with selected amino acid residues. Chemical hardness and orbital energy gap values were investigated using DFT studies and results depicted affinity of 14k and 14l towards biological molecules. All computational findings were found to be in good agreement with in vitro results.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder and more than 90% of diabetic patients suffer from type-2 diabetes, which is characterized by hyperglycemia. α-Glucosidase inhibition has become an appropriate approach to tackle high blood glucose levels. The current study was focused on synthesizing coumarin-hydrazone hybrids (7a-i) by using facile chemical reactions. The synthesized compounds were characterized by using 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and IR. To evaluate their anti-diabetic capability, all of the conjugates were screened for in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity to reveal their therapeutic importance. All of the compounds (except 7b) demonstrated significant enzyme inhibitory potential with IC50 values ranging between 2.39-57.52 μM, as compared to the standard inhibitor, acarbose (IC50 = 873.34 ± 1.67 μM). Among them, compound 7c is the most potent α-glucosidase inhibitor (IC50 = 2.39 ± 0.05 μM). Additionally, molecular docking was employed to scrutinize the binding pattern of active compounds within the α-glucosidase binding site. The in silico analysis reflects that hydrazone moiety is an essential pharmacophore for the binding of compounds with the active site residues of the enzyme. This study demonstrates that compounds 7c and 7f deserve further molecular optimization for potential application in diabetic management.

Abstract
Dithiocarbamate derivatives possess diverse biological activities. This work further expands their activity profile by identifying seven benzylamine-containing dithiocarbamate derivatives with piperazine and piperidine substitutions at the main moiety, and five piperazine-containing dithiocarbamates with various substitutions at the piperazine moiety as new inhibitors of α-glucosidase. Compounds bearing the benzylamine moiety exhibited more potent inhibition of the enzyme than the piperazine derivatives. Majority of the compounds non-competitively inhibited α-glucosidase that led to the identification of a new allosteric site on the enzyme with the help of molecular dynamics and docking studies. These studies suggest that the compounds regulate inhibition of the enzyme by binding to an allosteric site that is located in the vicinity of the active site. This is the first report on the allosteric inhibition of α-glucosidase by dithiocarbamate derivatives that provides insights into the mechanism of inhibition of the enzyme at molecular level. Moreover, it also explores new avenues for drug development of α-glucosidase inhibitors as antidiabetic drugs.
