Synthesis, Biological Activity, and Molecular Docking Assessment of Some New Sulfonylated Tetrazole Derivatives

Abstract

The designed molecular structures have been subjected to computational analysis for calculating their physicochemical properties and drug likeness. The calculated data indicate that most of the compound possess the bioactivity score in the active zone. Synthetic approach to the target compounds is straightforward and easy to handle. Structures of the new compounds are supported by FT-IR, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR, and mass spectra. Antimicrobial tests of the products against pathogens (S. aureus, S. epidermidis, E. coli, and P. mirabilis) indicate the products as active or highly active. Their cyto-toxicity is determined to be 92–98% at concentration of 3.125 µmol/L. The molecular docking analysis carried out for the target compounds against the receptor Glc-N-6P exhibits low binding energy and various binding sites of those.
