1,2,3-Triazoles containing Thiazole-Piperazine Moieties: Synthesis, Biological Assessment and Molecular Docking

Abstract

A novel series of thiazole-triazole-piperazine multi hybrids was designed for antimicrobial activity and the synthetic method for this series has been developed by copper catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of thiazole-based azide with Boc-piperidine based alkyne in the presence of CuSO4 and sodium ascorbate. Boc deprotection followed by alkylation of piperidine moiety in hybrid derivatives was also carried out. All the target compounds were confirmed using FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and LC-MS spectral techniques. These compounds were screened for the antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi. The antimicrobial activities are also comparable to standard drugs ampicillin and clotrimazole. All the molecules showed good to moderate activity and supported by molecular docking studies and ADME prediction.
