Abstract
AbstractIn the present study, the aimed enamines 3 a–j were synthesized with yield ranging between 65 and 81 % by the reaction of 5‐((dimethylamino)methylene)‐1,3‐dimethylpyrimidine‐2,4,6(1H,3H,5H) ‐trione (2) with different amines at room temperature (25 °C). The structures of all synthesized compounds were characterized using different spectroscopic techniques. Molecular docking studies of the new compounds 3 a–j were carried out with human estrogen receptor (hER) enzyme to evaluate their activities as an effective drug molecules. It was investigated that the compounds 3 b, 3 e, 3 f and 3 j revealed the best binding affinities. All new compounds were evaluated towards antifungal activities, which conceded that the compound 3 e displayed a remarkable antifungal activity compared to the Fluconazole and Nystatin, and its Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) found to be 0.011 mM, while for Fluconazole the MIC value exhibited at 0.046 mM. Additionally, the toxicity for the new compounds found to be better than tamoxifen on MCF‐7 cells and among these molecules, the compound 3 e displayed the lowest IC50 value.
