Biology-oriented drug synthesis (BIODS): In vitro β-glucuronidase inhibitory and in silico studies on 2-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl aryl carboxylate derivatives
Biology-oriented drug synthesis (BIODS) of 2-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl aryl carboxylate derivatives 1–26. All compounds were evaluated for in vitro β-glucuronidase inhibitory activity. Except few derivatives, all molecules were demonstrated good inhibition. Molecular docking studies were carried out to verify the structure-activity relationship.
