Abstract: | ![]() Thirty-five 3-aryl-4-arylaminofuran-2(5H)-one derivatives were designed, prepared and tested for their inhibitory activity against tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase. Out of these compounds, 3-(3-bromophenyl)-4-(3,5-dichlorophenylamino)furan-2(5H)-one (35) was the most active with IC50 of 0.09 ± 0.02 μM. The structure-activity relationship revealed that introduction of chlorine atoms at both meta positions of aniline moiety significantly increased the enzyme inhibitory activity. The results of antibacterial assay revealed that the tested compounds showed good activity against Gram-positive bacteria, with 35 being the most potent with MIC50 of 0.06 μg/mL against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923. Molecular docking of 35 into S. aureus tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase active site was also performed. The inhibitor snugly fitting the active site may well explain its excellent inhibitory activity. |
